Universal Search-and-Replace

in progress

Equal Pigeon

A search-and-REPLACE option in Codex so we can change the names of characters / objects / locations universally across multiple entries with one click. It would save a lot of time instead of manually updating each separate Codex entry.

This is a much needed feature.

Can’t happen soon enough.

Flat Wildebeest

I'm glad to see this is happening. I have had to change an artifact, and searching the codes and novel where I have written it and replacing it was a real pain.

Extraordinary Mackerel

PLEASE implement a "FIND AND REPLACE" and also include an option just to replace a stand-alone character, e.g., only the A that is not part of a full word

Verdant Landfowl

any update on this feature...? Given the first suggestion was almost a year ago....????????

Merged in a post:

Mass Word edit

Flame Wildcat

Let's say I have a codex entry about a location called "The Citadel", but halfway through my story, I want to change the name into "The Palace". I would love the option to be able to mass edit any mentions of a codex name and change them.
