I made a search engine on scratch called Search engine it involved putting all the content in 1 item of 1 list and I made a spelling mistake by typing gingwer instead of ginger please help by telling me how to delete that 1 letter?

replace item (item v) of [list  v] with [ginger ]

Hope that helped.

If (while editing the project) you click on the orange area where it displays the list, you should be able to highlight and delete the letter “d” like in an ordinary text editor.

Hope this helps!

I tried it but it does'nt save

Just use replace item. Of if you delete the list and ad it when the green flag is clicked, change that text.

No, it only replaces the item that you specify.

So say you had a list named “words” with items such as:
1) Hello
2) Blah blha blah
3) How are you

And you wanted the second word in the second item to say blah instead of blha, you would do this:

replace item (2 v) of [words  v] with [Blah blah blah]

So now its been corrected to Blah blah blah from Blah blha blah.

What I mean is it is 3 lines and it only has 1 item

So say you had a list named "words" with items such as:
1) Hello
2) Blah blha blah
3) How are you

And you wanted the second word in the second item to say blah instead of blha, you would do this:

replace item (2 v) of [words  v] with [Blah blah blah] will replace all of item 1 in the list

So now its been corrected to Blah blah blah from Blah blha blah.

Then

delete (2 v) of [list  v]
delete (3 v) of [list  v]

but there are no 2 3 of the list

it has nothing to do with the code i was using

ask [] and wait
then add answer to item 1 of list because i was tying fast i accidently did a spelling mistake

You say it doesn't involve code, but immediately list code! I'm not going to waste more time on a wild goose chase. You need to provide complete and accurate information or no one can (or will) help you. If it doesn't have to do with code, it shouldn't be in help with scripts as thats for, well, code…. right?

I've understanded what you need.

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/94573634/#player I can not understand what you can not understand any way here is the link for the project, click search then type coco u will see a few spelling mistakes then click see inside then try to tell me something useful.

Ok i mean you said what is the problem with my code i said the code isn't the problem

Do this.

replace item (1 v) of [_____  v] with [Coco is a Short-Haired mostly grey and white with a touch of ginger cat. She is called Lemur puss because her tail has dark grey and white. She ansolutely adores Frazzle96 And always sits on his bed smoocheing him (Which is sometimes really annoying!) I can not sleep in because she gets worried and wakes my up by Frazzle96]//Ginger is corrected here.

Then double click the block (it shouldn't be attached to any code). Then save the project. Make sure its saved though. This is similiar to what you were advised to do earlier, but this is more complete and exact instructions. From now on I advise being more precise as that last statement as its easier to understand.
