Anybody knows if it's possible to search for a word in a bunch of html files at once?

The obvious way would be to try and stitch them together first. How'd you get old EP message files of all things?

@BlueVeins In EP last days they allowed us to download our data to keep them with us. The stories conversations questions and I think confessions which was an old feature. You can also upload your old stories here on SW but I didn't opt for that. PotatoGaga did that that's why her first post should show 2011 I think 🤔 I will check.

If you open them all in Notepad++, you can search in all open files.

@NerdyPotato I just found what I wanted manually but thanks 😊 turns out the username I was looking for was changed by the person I remembered that once I saw the later username.
