# Find/replace on pagination using PHP

 * I’m trying to do a find/replace on the pagination links using PHP but am having
   trouble putting this code into a variable so that I can do a basic str_replace
   command. Can anyone recommend a way to do this?
 * This is the code rendering the pagination:
    `<?php if(function_exists('wp_page_numbers')){
   wp_page_numbers(); } ?>`

 * That is not a WordPress function. If it is from the plugin of the same name, 
   there are no filters provided for altering its functionality. Seeing that the
   plugin is outdated and unsupported, **if** it is from that plugin, just go ahead
   and directly hack the function’s source code.

 * Thanks, that makes sense now. I ended up finding a solution to the pagination
   issue that didn’t involve a PHP find/replace and was a little less of a hack.
