Uneditable text on a WordPress site ?

New Here ,
Sep 11, 2011 Sep 11, 2011

Hi all,

I'm working on a friend's site.

My problem is that the pages display some text that is impossible to edit.

I don't know how to edit the text's inline styles either.

Because I don't know in which file the text is located.

It's nowhere on the server, since I ran a grepWin search to search for specific text directly inside the files.

So, where is the text located, and/or how can I edit it ? Do you have any clue ?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Chase&.

It's possible the string you are looking for is stored inside the database as opposed to an actual document since most text is stored there in your typical CMS.  I would recommend posting your topic in the Wordpress support forums as they would be better suited to tell you where to look in the database.

Yes, you're right.

I actually just figured out the text I was looking for is available in the exported .xml from WordPress.

Thank you.
