How to search and replace?
Posted by: Bernhard Rieder

I am using WordPress and phpMyAdmin to access my MySQL database.

Task/Challenge:
I need to search for specific "words" in my posts and pages. I need to replace those words. I also need to add a Hyperlink and an Anchor Text.

I could find this code, which allows to replace a text within a post.

update wp_posts set post_content =
replace(post_content,'Text to find','text to replace with');

Question a:
The code doesn't allow me to add a hyperlink to the new text-replacement.
How to do that?

Question b:
The code doesn't allow me to add find and replace "words/queries" within my wordpress pages.
What's the code for the pages?

Thank you so much for any little help, appreciate it!
