    I have the following regex which works in stand alone mode

    \[dw-page data=”[a-zA-Z0-9 _;&:]*”\]$

    I have 234 occurrences of data that fulfills this criteria in the posts table but the plugin says there are 0 occurrences!

    Can you give an example of some text that this is supposed to match? What is standalone mode?

    By standalone I mean in a regex tester.

    I have managed to resolve it by adding additional escape \ so in the end it became

    \[dw-page data=\”[a-zA-Z0-9 _;&:]*\”\]$

    (They aren’t smart quotes in the regex just displayed as such here.)

    So ultimately resolved.

    The quotes shouldn’t need to be escaped. If I perform the same search it finds the text that matches.

    Without escaping the quotes, which as you say should not be necessary, it did no changes for me, just said no records found.
