search_replace_execute
Execute site-wide content replacements across all pages in LightCMS. Modify text globally with optional regex support and automatic republishing.
Instructions
Execute a site-wide search-and-replace across all content. Modifies every matching page permanently.
MANDATORY workflow:
Run search_replace_preview and show the user which pages will be affected.
Get explicit user confirmation before executing.
Run search_replace_execute with a clear version_comment.
Set auto_republish: true to immediately re-publish all previously-published pages after updating them, collapsing the execute + publish_multiple flow into one call.
For targeted replacements, use scoped_search_replace_execute instead.
