 * Hi there, when trying to change shortcodes in a pages text like the following
   example:
 * [geofilter country=’US’] [table id=6 /] [/geofilter]
 * trying to simply change to:
 * [geoip2 region=’US’] [table id=6 /] [/geoip2]
 * Just doesn’t seem to do anything when I “run” better search and replace. Maybe
   I’m confused at how this plugin works, please advise? A plugin I’m using changed
   format so I’m needing to make that type of change on around 1,000 pages and was
   hoping your plugin would save me from having to manually do it. Please advise.

 * Hi,
 * Are you getting to the point where you see the results, and it’s just not finding
   anything, or are you getting a blank page when running a search/replace?
 * I tested the strings you provided above and it worked for me, so it looks like
   you may need to decrease the “max page size” in the settings page, or increase
   your memory limit as shown here:
