 | This template is used on many pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | Uses Lua: |
For a function to search for multiple patterns, see {{#invoke:String2|matchAny}}.
Replaces matches of multiple patterns in a given string with given replacements. For each replacement instance, the pattern matching at the lowest position is chosen. If there are multiple such patterns, then the one specified earliest in the pattern list is chosen.
Usage
{{MultiReplace|input|plain=yes (optional)|pattern1| replacement1|pattern2|replacement2... }}
If plain=yes is specified, then the patterns and replacements are treated as plain text, otherwise as Lua Unicode patterns.
