It would be nice if there were "search and replace" functionality while in the Code view.

When is this coming in the Markdown editor? You cannot close QOL and usability requests simply because you addressed it in only ONE of your editors

Hi Everyone, in our Advanced WYSIWYG editor, you can search the keyword from the code view. I've attached a screenshot for reference, kindly let us know if this meets your expectations.
We would like to change the status of this feedback. If you have any concerns, please write us below.
Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated.

Prabhakaran Parasuraman I'm afraid this does not meet my expectations as when I search for a word in the code editor it will not find that word unless it is basically visible on the screen. To test this, identify a word that appears at the bottom of a longer page, go back to the beginning of the page, press Ctrl-F and it enters a search mode in the browser (not really a search in the editor), enter the word that exists at the end of the document will not be included in the search count. This provides no way to locate (and replace) a specific text string from within the code view of the Advanced WYSIWYG editor.
On a side note, there is no method of replace at all which is really a must!

David Gregory I have observed the same concerning behavior rendering the find function to be rather pointless if it is limited to only what is currently shown on the screen. I agree, the find needs to work beyond what is visible on the screen. And agreed, what is a find without a replace. You are using the find because you have to 'repair' something and that typically implies 'replace'. Goes hand in hand.

Would be even better if it worked similar to the Find/Replace function in the Content tools, but applied to the source code. Probably it may use some language for it, like "quotes", similar to how Google search accepts content in quotes as "exact match".

Hi Candace, thanks for reaching out. The search and replace in code view looks useful for many users. We will consider this feedback. We will take this into our analysis and check the technical feasibility of incorporating this into our future roadmap. We will keep you posted on any updates. Your patience and understanding are appreciated.

It would be good if you could replace text with variables and snippets as well.
