About

Replace words and phrases on websites with your own text rules in Safari. This Safari extension offers flexible matching options, rule ordering, and convenient tools for testing and backing up your settings. Key Features: • Create replacement rules with a source "Word" and target "Replacement". • Use CS for case-sensitive matching and IN to match text inside larger words. For example, when the Word is her, turning IN off replaces only standalone her, while turning IN on also replaces her inside words such as other and there. • Control priority with Rule Order (Top-Down or Bottom-Up) when multiple rules can match the same text. • Set Default CS, Default IN, and Default RX so new rules start with your preferred options. • Use Import / Export to back up your settings as JSON and restore them later. • Preview how your current rules will transform text with the built-in Replacement Test. Advanced Matching: • Turn RX on if you want to use regular expressions in the Word field. • Turn RX off to match symbols as plain text without escaping them. • Example: to match [y/n], enter [y/n] with RX off, or \[y/n\] with RX on. Notes: • Works in Safari on websites where this extension is allowed
