find and replace Gemini copy/paste coding data-path-to-node

[Omar A]

Hi,

Here’s the code that I copied from Google Gemini into WordPress.

As you can see, each <span data-path-to-node=“11,1,0,0”> is different.

I can easily find/replace <span data-path-to-node=> as that’s consistent, but the numbers are all different. How can I delete the entire <span> as it’s bloat?

	<tr>
		<td width="25%"><span data-path-to-node="11,1,0,0"><b data-path-to-node="11,1,0,0" data-index-in-node="0">Identifiers</b> Name</span></td>
		<td width="25%"><span data-path-to-node="11,1,1,0">You</span></td>
		<td width="25%"><span data-path-to-node="11,1,2,0">Ads</span></td>
		<td width="25%"><span data-path-to-node="11,1,3,0">Service /span></td>
  </tr>

Thanks
Omar

@Omar-A ,

Search has a “regular expression” mode which will be able to search for anything matching a pattern. Since I assume you want to also delete the matching </span> to go with it, then I believe a regex like the following will work:
FIND = <span data-path-to-node[^>]*>(.*?)</span>
REPLACE = $1
SEARCH MODE = Regular Expression

That worked on the first three spans in your example (and would’ve worked on the fourth if the final /span> wasn’t missing the <)
