Hello,
I have Joomla 4.3.2.
I downloaded replacer 12.8.3 automatically.
Then all adjustments were gone.
I reinstalled replacer12.7.1 and the changes I made were back.
It is the free version.
If you can reproduce this on an online environment to which I can get access, I am happy to look into this.
Can you give me (super) admin and (s)ftp access so I can take a look?
