When working on a WordPress website you often notice a piece of text you need to modify or delete it, but you don’t know what php page it’s in, and certainly don’t know which individual file to look in. String Locator for WordPress is one of many plugins you can rely on to get the kind of job done. It lets you search for the text which you would need to remove through themes, plugins, or WordPress core and displays the matched text and line numbers.
String Locator has a Smart-Scan feature that searches for missing braces and parenthesis and helps you prevent unnecessary errors. It checks for errors on your sites after your edits and reverts to the previous version of your edited file upon detecting a problem. To get started, simply choose where and what you want to search for, and the plugin takes care of the rest.This string locator plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. However, it has been working fine with the version WordPress 5.2.6
