Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Text Replace - Find and Replace WordPress Strings

Yes! Text Replace works with any WordPress theme by hooking into WordPress's translation system (gettext filter).

Absolutely! It's perfect for customizing WooCommerce text like "Add to Cart", "Proceed to Checkout", and more. Just use "woocommerce" as the text domain to target only WooCommerce strings.

Minimal impact. The plugin uses intelligent caching and executes only one database query per page load. Active replacements are cached for 24 hours, so there's virtually no performance impact.

Your text replacements remain intact! Since you're not modifying source files, updates won't affect your customizations. This is one of the main benefits of using Text Replace.

The plugin is designed for text replacement. While it can replace simple HTML, it's recommended to use it for plain text strings to avoid breaking markup.

Check the plugin's main file header for the "Text Domain" field, or look in the plugin's translation files (.po/.pot files). Common examples: * WooCommerce: woocommerce * Contact Form 7: contact-form-7 * Yoast SEO: wordpress-seo * Elementor: elementor See the "How to Find Text Domain for Any Plugin" section above for detailed instructions.

There is no hard limit on the number of replacements. The plugin is optimized to handle unlimited replacements efficiently with intelligent caching.

Not in the current version. The plugin uses simple string matching for reliability and performance. Regular expressions may be added in a future version.

Check these common issues: 1. Verify the replacement is Active (toggle switch is on) 2. Check if you specified a Text Domain - try leaving it empty for global replacement 3. Clear your site's cache (plugin cache and any caching plugins) 4. Verify the source string matches exactly (check case sensitivity setting) 5. Make sure the text you're trying to replace is actually generated by WordPress, not hardcoded in templates 6. Check if another plugin or code is overriding the text after your replacement

Go to Text Replace > Import/Export Click the Clear Cache button Also clear your caching plugin's cache if you use one (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, etc.)
