cheap != reliable

It does if a reliable person needs the money. Why the fuck am I seeing all these nicks who've supposedly been in the biz since 2001 or 2003 posting like they started working this business last week? Are all these just old accounts that got sold?

Open up a SSH session as user that is the owner of the files

Code:

[COLOR="Red"]cd ../path/to/start/the/recurse[/COLOR]

$ find $PWD -type f -name "*.php"|more

look the files up
user manual command
$ man find

cat <FILENAME>
nano (or server editor you want to use) <FILENAME>

edit the file and save.

example:

Code:

barry@{}:~/www$ find $PWD -type f -name "*.php"|more
barry@{}:~/www$ [COLOR="Yellow"]find $PWD -type f -name "database.php"|more[/COLOR]
/home/barry/www/{}/CodeIgniter_2.0.2/application/config/database.php
/home/barry/www/{}/CodeIgniter_2.0.2/application/config/database.php
/home/barry/www{}/CodeIgniter_2.0.2/application/config/database.php
/home/barry/www{}/CodeIgniter/application/config/database.php
/home/barry/www/{}/sortAlist/database.php

/{server paths omitted}/

Using a terminal should not be grunt work ...

I have a lot of contacts with developers ranging from grunts to extremely proficient in PHP/MySQL, JavaScript, Ajax, etc. Depending on what you need I can point you in the right direction. Of course if you just need someone to FTP/SSH and do some minor work I can assist if you need. *I can do complex work as well, but most of my time is devoted to a new project that I'm launching in Jan.

If you do hire a grunt worker - be sure to backup important files and directories. I'm sure you know this already, but I have seen people have their entire site screwed up because of some noob developer.

You mean like

Code:

barry@{}:~/www/pushstate$ mkdir t
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate$ cd t
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t$ touch  wtf.php data.php lol.php
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t$ ls
data.php  lol.php  wtf.php
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t$ mkdir backups
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t$ cp *.php backups
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t$ cd backups
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t/backups$ ls
data.php  lol.php  wtf.php
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t/backups$ rm *
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t/backups$ ls
barry@{}:~/www/pushstate/t/backups$

Really, you just need working backups if you are just editing a production site's directory recursively. If you break something you can overwrite the bad file with a copy of from the backup directory. Doing this from a full site backup takes too long

True, working backups are a must.

Another useful tool is 'find'. For example if you hire a freelancer to make a few minor changes it is good to know exactly what files were modified:

Through SSH:
find /pathtodirectory/public_html/ -type f -mtime -2

This will show all files modified within the last 2 days.

It's a useful little command.

I've lost the plot of this thread.
