Frequently Asked Questions

How do positions count?

From 1, so position 1 is the first item and position 2 is the second. Counting from 1 matches how most people read a list.

What if the position is outside the list?

The tool shows a short message with the valid range, so you can pick a position that actually exists.

Can the new text be empty?

Yes. Leaving the new text blank replaces the item with an empty line, which you can then remove if you like.

Does it change any other items?

No. Only the item at the chosen position changes; every other line stays exactly as it was.

Is my list uploaded?

No. The replacement runs in your browser and your list never leaves the tab.
