Perhaps I’m missing it, but I don’t see a global search and replace. I have over 200 pages and even though I put an iframe referring to a jsp page that will generate the dynamic content, now I need to change that refrence. A Global search for /blablabla/doit.jsp to a /speak/doit.jsp would be great. To make matters worse you don’t store the pages in flat format on the hard drive so I can use sed or awk. So I’m left with exporting the site changing it and then hoping the import works. /sigh

We don’t currently offer search and replace across the site - sorry! With the number of third-party plugins available, it’s a tricky feature to offer but I can appreciate the use case(s) for it.

RapidWeaver doesn’t import HTML back into the app, I’m afraid.
