    How to search all source code for a string

    Is there a way to search all web site source code for a string in the Umbraco UI?  I am a new user, and it seems that the search box at the top left only looks at the names of the source code files, not their contents.  For example, there was a hyperlink in multiple places in my website with a typo.  I wanted to be able to search for the incorrectly spelled hyperlink.

    Hi Polly and welcome to our :)

    You're thinking about searching through content in the Umbraco backoffice, right? That has nothing to do with the source code of Umbraco just to be clear on that :)

    It seems that the search function is only looking at the name of the pages and nothing further. So I don't think that there is an easy way to find all the links I'm afraid.

    I suspect that it's possible to change this search behaviour by playing around with Examine index settings (~/config/ExamineIndex.config), but I'm completely unsure about it - just my speculations.
