2023-08-10 Firefox user 5612562 The latest update makes it add the change twice. For example, if replacing "one" with "onetwo" it will be replaced as "onetwotwo" (edit: https://github.com/erosman/support/issues/585)

2020-03-03 eUROs Although that I this is a very interesting extension and can be a time saver to many text writing users on the web, I gave only 3 stars because it can ONLY replace text and symbols in the text box of "Google translate" website only. It doesn't work on any other website, or Addon/extension which have full/or pop up text page INPUT window. And as I can see this extension hasn't been updated since 2018. Fix these two problems and I will give 5 stars on my rating.

2019-07-07 Firefox user 15119296 it replaces all the occurrences in a page, what is exactly what i was looking for, thanks !
2019-05-05 Rainbow_Spike Choice of simplicity, 57 KB! * If you need to use automated search/replace (but without regexps) - use "Search and Replace" from rwanyoike * If you need to use more configurated substitutions list - take "FoxReplace" from Marc * If you need to use favorites, find/replace history and templates for cursor auto-inserting - take "Find & Replace for Text Editing" from Dalimil Hajek
2019-02-15 Firefox user 14637614 2 features I would like to see added 1 -When I enter the find/replace field I would like to have any text there highlighted so I can just type over it. 2 - Since I already have my hands on the keyboard, a keyboard shortcut for replace and clear would be helpful
