Hi @Danny_Welsh1 did you ever find a solution for this?
Topic summary
Users are seeking a find-and-replace tool for Shopify that allows reviewing each match before replacing, rather than automatic bulk changes. The need spans product descriptions, pages, blogs, and collections—particularly after migrating content between stores where specific text strings need updating.
Proposed workarounds:
- Export products to CSV, use Excel’s find-and-replace, then re-import (caution: changing the “handle” field creates new products instead of updating existing ones)
- Manual copy-paste for each change
Key frustrations:
- Shopify’s native find-and-replace closes after one click, unlike standard IDEs that keep the dialog open for sequential review
- No “next match” navigation option
- App store searches yield no relevant solutions
Outcome:
The original poster estimated manual labor costs exceeded $3,000 USD and never found a satisfactory solution. The discussion remains unresolved, with one user suggesting hiring someone to build a custom app for that budget.
