Well I hate to say, I did my best to read the documentation, but what is intuitive to some escapes me and is not obvious in the documentation.

1. I have created a search.
2. How do I run a saved search and replace?
3. Where does the list of searched and replaced events appear? I need to show what was changed.
4. How do I run a search and not immediately replace the text? I need to run a search and give a subject matter expert a list of occurrences to review and approve changes.

I of course followed the instructions to test a search and created an article title of Cat with cat in the text. Nothing happens so as I suspected, a "run" method must be needed with a results list.

No, I posted this question in replacer forum.

I created a test as recommended by the documentation, nothing happened to replace cat with dog after saving the replacer item.

If this process is designed to automatically run a replace then it did not happen.

I understand it replaces on the front end. After creating the search “following the documentation” nothing happens in the Joomla article viewed in the front end.

Use case: search for a word, replace the word in the front end. Without a log it limits my additional use case.

I will submit a brief video to demonstrate.
