 * Hello all. 
   I want to automatically remove that old adobe flash player (unused)
   code from WordPress posts that are many of those. Its possible with the PHP function
   to clean that code?
 * The code:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <object height="18" width="100%"><param name="movie" value="https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F52492692&amp;auto_play=false&amp;player_type=tiny&amp;font=Arial&amp;color=333333"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" height="18" src="https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F52492692&amp;auto_play=false&amp;player_type=tiny&amp;font=Arial&amp;color=333333" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"></object>
       ```
   
 * I have many posts with that code; how it’s possible to get rid of it?
 * Thank you for your time and help.

 * Bc of the way the data is being stored, I would recommend using this:
 * [https://interconnectit.com/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/](https://interconnectit.com/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/)
 * Backup your db first!!
 * Or, you could try this one:
