Description
Site Wide Text Change replaces words and phrases throughout the content displayed in WordPress by applying search and replace rules registered in the administrative panel, covering titles, posts, pages, menus, and widgets without altering records saved in the database. Designed for those who need to standardize terminology, update brand names, or correct terms at scale, the plugin centralizes these replacements on a single screen and eliminates the need for manual editing of each publication.
