LiveDraft Search & Replace

Changelog

1.6.3

  • Fixed: The fix in version 1.6.2 was insufficient, so an additional fix was applied.

1.6.2

  • Fixed: Prevented double-click from triggering browser word-selection, which was causing the Auto-populate feature to overwrite the search field before replacement.

1.6.1

  • Fixed: Scroll-to-match now works correctly in iframe-based themes (e.g. Astra) where the iframe window itself is the scroll container.

1.6.0

  • Fixed: Added compatibility with iframe-based block editors used by themes such as Astra. Search, highlight, and replace now work correctly in these environments.

  • Fixed: Improved whitespace handling in “Auto-populate from Selection”.

  • Fixed: Corrected highlight and synchronization issues introduced by recent feature updates and standard editor operations.

1.1.2
