'''[[Special:ReplaceText|ReplaceText]]''' - Use this to perform useful find-and-replace operations:
* '''[[Special:ReplaceText|ReplaceText]]''' - Used to correct links after page moves, or hunt URL relocations.
* '''DisplayTitle''' - Used to automatically format puzzle pages to display in a "<code>Puzzle name (Hunt name)</code>" format in page titles, search results and Category listings, regardless of chosen URL and naming conventions ([[Template:Puzzle]] for details)
* Page name corrections - Replace "<code><nowiki>[[Page Name]]</nowiki></code>" with "<code><nowiki>[[New page name]]</nowiki></code>" to correct links to moved pages without needing redirects. Also may need to replace "<code><nowiki>[[Page Name|</nowiki></code>" with "<code><nowiki>[[New page name|</nowiki></code>" for completeness.
* URL changes - Replace "https://www.bookspace.world/" with "https://puzzles.mit.edu/2022/" when a hunt gets relocated
* Only members of the "<code>sysop</code>" user group have access to Replace Text functionality, replacements are case-sensitive, and after pressing Continue, all matching replacements are presented to the user for review and manual unselection before confirmation to be queued for processing.
