TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress theme and plugin developers or site administrators who need to edit hardcoded text in their site's code. It solves the problem of locating which file and line contains a specific piece of text across themes, plugins, or WordPress core so it can be edited directly.
