Find & Replace for Text Editing Chrome Extension

Find & Replace for Text Editing is a Chrome extension designed to streamline editing processes within the web browser. It enables users to search and replace text in input fields and other editable content, but does not function with static text or certain websites, including Google Docs, Shopify, etc. It also features the ability to perform case-sensitive searches, full word matches, and uses regular expressions, and allows limits to be set to text selection. Users can save frequently-used phrases as favorites and the extension supports a handy shortcut for deployment (Ctrl+Shift+F for Windows, Cmd+Shift+F for Mac).

User reviews
Works perfectly for my need, when editing a text input box, I can select everything, search and replace within what's selected, supports regex, case insensitivity, whole word matching and more. Perfect for my needs! I'm not trying to change text that rendered, but rather text that's free to be entered (like updating a post or commentary or free written text)

Расширение рабочее, зайдите в гугл-переводчик, там напишите что-нибудь и расширение находит текст. Проблема в том, что работает расширение на очень малом кол-ве сайтов - хз с чем связано.
