str\_replace — eZ Publish Template Operator Extension
=====================================================

[](#str_replace--ez-publish-template-operator-extension)

**str\_replace** is an eZ Publish Legacy extension that exposes PHP's native `str_replace()` function as the `{ezstr_replace}` template operator, allowing search-and-replace operations directly inside eZ Publish templates.

- **Author:** Alexandre Abric
- **Initial release:** April 2005
- **License:** GNU General Public License v2

About
-----

[](#about)

The extension registers a single template operator, `ezstr_replace`, which wraps PHP's built-in `str_replace()`. It is lightweight, dependency-free, and compatible with any eZ Publish Legacy installation.

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Extract or clone the repository into your `extension/` directory so that the path becomes:

    ```
    extension/str_replace/

    ```
2. Activate the extension. Either use the eZ Publish admin interface (**Setup → Extensions**), or add it manually to `settings/override/site.ini.append.php`:

    ```
    [ExtensionSettings]
    ActiveExtensions[]=str_replace
    ```

    If the `[ExtensionSettings]` block already exists, just append the second line.
3. Clear the cache:

    ```
    php bin/php/ezcache.php --clear-all
    ```

---

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use the `ezstr_replace` operator in any eZ Publish template:

```
{ezstr_replace($search, $replace, $subject)}
```

Replace a word in a plain string:

```

{* Output: Hello eZ Publish! *}
```

Replace content from a node attribute:

```
{def $cleaned = ezstr_replace('-', ' ', $node.name)}
{$cleaned}
```
