Example
of replacing- Replacing content when "Respect XML tags" checkbox is unchecked
After copying a space, I want all my links in the new space to point to my new space. This will not happen automatically, so I can use the "Search and replace" functionality from Space Admin.
This is how the tag looks like at the moment (to get the page in this format, I have to click on the page options "View Storage Format" ).
| Code Block |
|---|
<ri:page ri:space-key="NS" ri:content-title="New space Home" /> //original tag |
This is how I want it to be replaced
| Code Block |
|---|
<ri:page ri:space-key="AS" ri:content-title="Another space Home" /> //updated tag |
but what will not work, is searching for
| Code Block |
|---|
<ri:page ri:space-key="NS" |
and replacing with
| Code Block |
|---|
<ri:page ri:space-key="AS" |
because in this way, I will break Confluences XML structure.
