I’ve just tried to run the many examples for a global find-and-replace here in this forum but struggled with two things:
How do I run these rake posts: ... commands? When I type the command at the command line I just end up with a new line showing a >. I’ve never done anything with Ruby so far.
How can I replace the string “[code]” with “```” followed by a newline?
Can I search also for a newline so that only replace “[code]” that follows a newline?
Sorry for all these noob questions but I’m new to Discourse and in the midde of a large website relaunch
I solved the problem (sleeping over it revealed the problem). I typed:
rake posts:remap["[code]","```"]
The three backticks where interpreted by the shell and so caused it to ask me to complete the command. Therefore the additional prompt that I confused for a rake prompt.
Done exactly that. I replaced [code] with \n and three backticks, and [/code] with three backticks and \n. Looks fine now. In the end I used Postgres instead of remap because I couldn’t get it to insert the newlines correctly.
Je ne parviens pas non plus à insérer de sauts de ligne en utilisant rake posts:remap avec le remplacement par regex. Je ne sais pas si c’est même possible.
Q : Si j’effectue des mises à jour via la base de données, dois-je modifier à la fois les versions brutes et cuites, ou si je mets à jour la version brute, la version cuite sera-t-elle mise à jour automatiquement, ou dois-je faire quelque chose pour que cela se produise ?
Je suppose que le plugin Data Explorer se contente d’exécuter des requêtes et n’effectue pas de mises à jour (UPDATE) ?
