Find and Replace Function in Confluence?

Richard Lucas October 18, 2012

Hello all,

Is there a Find and Replace function in Confluence like there is in Word?

For example, say if I want to replace every instance "cat" (page titles, within word documents, within txt documents) with the word "dog".

Is this possible?

Thank you very much and I appreciate all the help.

Hi there,

Not possible at the moment I'm affraid. However, I heard that Atlassian devs are looking at implementing that in the near future, and this feature is being track through https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-2522

Make sure you vote for this feature request to increase its visibility.

Hope it helps :)

It's possible now! Took me a while to find it, but there's a magnifying glass at the right of the editor-panel smile

Thank you @Vera Henrichs , however the initial question is related to perform a Find / Replace on all pages of a wiki...

Did you mean while editing a page or across pages? The 4.x editor covers the first part I think and for the second part see How to automate adding text to Confluence pages

Thanks for the help Bob,

This is across several pages at once. But I need it not only to work for page titles and text within those pages, but also for .docx and .txt documents I have attached within those pages.

Thank you.
