   I have 100+ old posts in a Word Press blog each with ebay affiliate links. Ebay has now changed the structure of their affiliate links and I want to go back and update all these old links to conform to the new standard.

   How do I do this without going into each post and doing it one by one?

   I thought maybe I could export the posts, do a find and replace on the links, and re-import the XML file, but I think I would have to delete all the original posts in order to do that.

   Are there any other methods I can use to do a bulk edit of the text in each and every post?

   Only thing I can think of would be to do a search using PHPAdmin and export the posts and then do a bulk find / replace using Excel or other editing program.

   Not sure that helps, but it might work.
