I want to change a word on my website..

I want to change a word on my website from 'xxx' to 'yyy'. It is a wordpress site and quite large. Is there a plugin or an easy way to do this?

I want to change the title, descriptions, content, and navigation links away from 'xxx'.

Any advice?

    I am not sure I understand your question.
    In WP you can just login into the admin panel and edit any post or their title... everything.

    Can you be more specific?

    Just a quick caveat - before using search and replace make sure that you actually want to replace EVERY incident of 'xxx' to 'yyy' - it sounds to me like you want bto change a title and not necessarily every post and article that includes 'xxx'.

    You could find some very strange results if you are not careful - for example you might want to replace 'care' with 'concern' but using edit and replace you could well fing that careless became concernless and so on.

    You might not like what I say - but I believe it.

    Some old school smarts would help - and here's to Rob Toth for his help. Bloody good stuff, even the freebies!
