README

Contao Search & Replace

Allows you to search the database for a specific string and replace the occurences with another. You can also specify individual records to be replaced.

Before the strings are replaced in the database, a backup (via Contao's database backup functionality) will be created automatically. Keep in mind that Contao only keeps one backup of the same day by default.

Configuration

Default Tables

When going to Search & Replace in the back end, only the table tl_content will be selected by default. If you want other tables to be selected by default, you can change this via the contao_search_and_replace.default_tables parameter:

# config/config.yaml
parameters:
    contao_search_and_replace.default_tables:
        - tl_content
        - tl_news
        - tl_calendar_events

Ignored Tables

Some tables will not show up in the list of tables by default. You can change the list of tables to ignore via the contao_search_and_replace.ignored_tables parameter:

# config/config.yaml
parameters:
    contao_search_and_replace.ignored_tables:
        - altcha_challenges
        - messenger_messages
        - rememberme_token
        - search_and_replace_job
        - tl_crawl_queue
        - tl_cron_job
        - tl_log
        - tl_message_queue
        - tl_opt_in
        - tl_opt_in_related
        - tl_remember_me
        - tl_trusted_device
        - tl_undo
        - tl_version
        - webauthn_credentials
