Searching and replacing text in confluence

Avinash9
Avinash Jul 27, 2012

Hi,

Is there way to search for a particular word and replace it with some other word in confluence? I have a lot of content and want to search for a word say "skills" and replace it with "competencies" through out my space. I know we have ctrl+f to find a word in a page but its cumbersome if you have many pages. Any solution is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

How to automate adding text to Confluence pages but be careful with your searching to make sure you don't get unintensional replaces. Especially for simple words. Consider using regex to narrow the find pattern.
