Usage[edit source]

{{replace|string|target|replacement|count=n}}

  • {{replace|One two two three two four twotwo five|two|NINE|count=2}} → One NINE NINE three two four twotwo five
  • {{replace|foo_bar|_| }} → foo bar

Space[edit source]

  • {{replace|One-two two-three two-four twotwo-five|-|—}} → One—two two—three two—four twotwo—five
  • {{replace|One-two two-three two-four twotwo-five|- |—}} → One-two two-three two-four twotwo-five
