You can use Movable Type's search and replace functionality either to search through all of your entries for a particular string, or to replace all instances of a string with another string. IMPORTANT: there is no undo feature, so be careful when you use the replace functionality; because of this you may want to export your Movable Type entries before using replace, for backup purposes.
You have the following options when using search and replace:
Case Sensitive
box. This means that the string foo
will match foo
, Foo
, fOo
, etc.
Regular Expression Match
. If you are unsure what this means, you would do best to leave this box unchecked.
Title
, Entry Body
, and Extended Entry Body
fields of each entry in your blog. You can tune the search and replace to operate on only a subset of these fields by checking and unchecking the Search fields
boxes.
