Module:MultiReplace replaces matches of multiple patterns in a given string with given replacements. For each replacement instance, the pattern matching at the lowest position is chosen. If there are multiple such patterns, then the one specified earliest in the pattern list is chosen.
Usage
{{MultiReplace|input|plain=yes (optional)|pattern1| replacement1|pattern2|replacement2... }}
If plain=yes is specified, then the patterns and replacements are treated as plain text, otherwise as Lua Unicode patterns.
An equals sign in a pattern will trigger an Unpaired argument error. Use {{}}, which expands to an equals sign that will not be interpreted.
