Documents need a search and replace function

What is the challenge?

When editing other people's writing, many mistakes are repeated (e.g., two spaces after a period; "&" instead of "and").

What is the impact?

Have to manually fix each one. This approach is tedious and slow.

Describe your idea

Create a search and replace function (with wildcards and regex).

    You can now find and replace words in documents. Press Command+F, or click the + icon in the editor toolbar and select Find and replace.

    Hi @Guest and @Guest, thanks for sharing your feedback. Would you be looking to use search and replace for individual documents or across all documents in your knowledge base?

    I first requested this feature nearly two years ago, even though it has been a standard capability for decades. When will search and replace be implemented?

    This could help with re-platforming an existing knowledge base previously published elsewhere--e.g., it could facilitate updating existing hyperlinks to the new Aha! domain.
