I've been using Homesite 5.5 (HS) for years, but it doesn't support sftp, so I'm moving over to CC HTML Editor. I'm starting, I think, with a difficult project.

It's an sftp site, with mostly PHP files. (WordPress, actually).

In HS, I can open a site, say the root directory, and see a list of all the files there. I can then use the Find and Replace feature, and it will go through all those files, find the text that I want replaced, and then replace that text with the new one. Nice batch editing operation.

Can this be done with CC editor? If so, how?

Thanks!

Yes, you can do that locally. You find the necessary options under Edit - Replace. Check 'Look in folder' to find the folder in question, then hit Replace all.
