Title: Plugin only worked once Last modified: December 22, 2024 --- # Plugin only worked once * Resolved [alanaj7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alanaj7/) * (@alanaj7) * [1 year, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-only-worked-once/) * Hello. Thank you for your Search and Replace Everything plugin. It worked perfectly, but only once. After the first successful use, the Preview Search & Replace button is no longer clickable for me to run the search and replace the text. Is there a fix for this?

The first time it worked, I had only selected posts (vw9k_posts). I have since tried selecting only the posts table, all tables and just two or three tables. * None of the above has worked, so I am not sure what to do. The button is no longer clickable for me. * I don’t recall adding any new plugins. It was in the same session, that I was not able to click the button. I tested it with one phone number that appears multiple times on my site. It worked perfectly. When I tried to change a second phone number, it no longer allowed me to click the button. * Thank you for any help. * Plugin Author [Mircea Sandu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gripgrip/) * (@gripgrip) * [1 year, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-only-worked-once/#post-18216235) * Hi [@alanaj7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alanaj7/), * That should not happen. Can you please reach out using the form on [https://wpcode.com/contact/](https://wpcode.com/contact/)?( choose “Complete a form” and Search & Replace Everything for the plugin). * If the button does nothing, it’s most likely a JavaScript conflict of some sort. Either from another plugin or your browser. * Can you please check the Browser Console for errors that show up either before or when you click the Preview Search & Replace button? You can find info on how to do that in [this article](https://wpcode.com/how-to-use-developer-tools-inspect-element/#aioseo-debug-javascript-errors-using-developer-tools). - This reply was modified 1 year, 5 months ago by [Mircea Sandu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gripgrip/). * Thread Starter [alanaj7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alanaj7/) * (@alanaj7) * [1 year, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-only-worked-once/#post-18219108) * Hi again [@gripgrip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gripgrip/) , * Thank you for following up with me. I reached out to your team using the form link you provided. * Firefox is my primary browser. After your response, I tried to use the plugin in Chrome and the button is clickable. I’m not sure why it worked initially in Firefox but doesn’t anymore. * I do recall something popped up in my WP dashboard that I closed, but don’t now remember what the pop up was for. * I am seeing the following errors in the Browser Console: Experiment add-an-image- to-pdf-with-alt-text-rollout has unknown featureId: addAnImageInPDF RemoteSettingsExperimentLoader. sys.mjs:709:21 * Experiment tab-hover-preview-release-rollout has unknown featureId: tabPreview RemoteSettingsExperimentLoader.sys.mjs:709:21 * TypeError: body is null receiveMessage resource://gre/actors/ThumbnailsChild. sys.mjs:29tab-hover-preview.mjs:162:17_maybeRequestThumbnail chrome://browser/ content/tabbrowser/tab-hover-preview.mjs:162 * Uncaught SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data #setStatus chrome://global/content/elements/autocomplete-richlistitem. js:763handleEvent chrome://global/content/elements/autocomplete-richlistitem. js:750_fireOnSelect chrome://global/content/elements/richlistbox.js:328selectItem chrome://global/content/elements/richlistbox.js:459MozRichlistitem chrome://global/ content/elements/richlistbox.js:9034 autocomplete-richlistitem.js:763:26#setStatus chrome://global/content/elements/autocomplete-richlistitem.js:763handleEvent chrome://global/content/elements/autocomplete-richlistitem.js:750_fireOnSelect chrome://global/content/elements/richlistbox.js:328selectItem chrome://global/ content/elements/richlistbox.js:459MozRichlistitem chrome://global/content/elements/ richlistbox.js:903 * Thanks again for your feedback and assistance.
