Hi, Today I came across org-catch-invisible-edits, but I'm struggling to get it to work. Since I've never had it working it's possible that I'm misunderstanding it or doing something wrong, or maybe it's broken.
In my .emacs file I put (setq org-catch-invisible-edits 'show) but both 'M-x query-replace' and 'M-x replace-string' still replace hidden strings in folded sections of an org file.
