You could provide a few example of these strings?
Is it 140 strings total or 140 different strings that appear several
times in the book?
You could use Frame wildcards to help with the search:
See:

Then replace with the conditional format "By Pasting."

I need to conditionalize (best) or delete (acceptable) a complex
snippet of text that occurs 140 times in a book:
RESTful Example
POST actifio/api/*
SSH Example
* = 140 different strings
like task/failover?id=4111&host=myhost&diskpool=mainpool
These must become either simply Example,
or much better would be to conditionalize everything except the second
Example.
Conditionalizing is better because I must show these 140 different
examples in our next release, but not in this one, so if I delete them
then I will have to add them back later. If necessary I will leave
this until all other edits are finished and save the doc, then delete
them and publish it. Then I will pick up from the undeleted version.
But I much prefer to hide the content and leave open the option for
other last-minute edits.
Do you know if FM11 unstructured can Find and Replace with a condition?
I have FrameScript but I have neither the time nor the skill to write
a script and test it (I have to check this in on Sunday night.)
Deleting won't be the end of the world, but I'd love it if someone out
there has a rabbit in a hat...
