Frequently Asked Questions

How does the text finder and replace tool work?

Enter your text in the input area, specify the text to find, and enter the replacement text. The tool will highlight all matches and show the total count. Click 'Replace' to replace one instance or 'Replace All' to replace every instance.

What is case-sensitive search?

Case-sensitive search means the tool only matches text with exact capitalization. For example, searching for 'Hello' will not find 'hello' or 'HELLO'. Enable the case-sensitive option for precise matches.

What is whole word matching?

Whole word matching ensures the search term is found as a complete word, not as part of another word. For example, searching for 'cat' with whole word matching will find 'cat' but not 'category' or 'concatenate'.

Can I use regex patterns in the search?

Yes. The tool supports regex (regular expression) patterns for advanced searching. You can use patterns like d+ for digits, w+ for words, or specific character classes. Regex enables complex search operations.

Is the text finder tool free to use?

Yes. This text finder and replace tool is completely free, requires no signup, and works on any device with a web browser.

How do I count occurrences of a word?

Simply enter the text you want to find and the tool will display the total number of matches found. This is useful for auditing content, checking keyword density, or finding repeated phrases.
