BUG REPORT (v0.2.3)

1) Line $action_url = $_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . ‘?page=’ . $word_replacer['base_name']; should be$action_url = site_url().$_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . ‘?page=’ . $word_replacer['base_name'];so that the plugin works with subdomain blogs.
2) The regex is pretty useless because it doesn’t match newlines. Now, I understand that the plugin started as a _WORD_ replacer, but nevertheless you should add /s (either hardcoded or as an option like “case insensitive”)

3) backslashes are prepended everytime one clicks “update”.

Hence “foo” becomes “foo” becomes \”foo\” becomes \\\”foo\\\”

You’re welcome,
if theme is made by yourself, I’d recommend you to wrap the string using a PHP function so it can be easily edited from your own custom options etc.

I have no problem with hardcoding since it’s a custom theme made from scratch. I was just hoping that I can use this plugin so that I don’t have to change 6 different page templates (twice). It will be changed only for two days. Doesn’t matter, seems like I’ll have to change it manually. Thanks for your help…

Thanks.
it’s only a plugin using WordPress filter hook,
nothing with replacing hard string in a file. you can edit a file using PHP, but yeah, it’s not temporary and very risky since it possibly could break some important PHP code.

anyway how frequent you will edit that string?

I know I can edit it manually but I was hoping this plugin could do it without me touching the theme files because I need the change only temporarily. It’s a great plugin nonetheless…

Nope, you have to browse through template file and edit it manually. Depend on what theme you are using, some theme use function or filter hook to display the ‘Posted on’ text. If so, see the theme documentation/readme.
