What this tool can do:

This tool transforms your content by replacing all double quotes (including smart quotes) with single quotes. It’s ideal for preparing HTML or code for environments that require consistent quoting, converting legacy content, or standardizing datasets. With smart handling for tag attributes and instant preview, it gives you precision control over quote replacements.

Example:

Before:

Here’s a "quote" and <div class="box">HTML</div>

After:

Here's a 'quote' and <div class='box'>HTML</div>

Common Use Cases:

Great for writers, developers, or anyone cleaning up content with inconsistent quotes. Use it to reformat text, sanitize output, or align with coding standards in XML, HTML, or config files.

Useful Tools & Suggestions:

If you’re switching quote styles, try Replace Smart/Straight Quotes first to clean up any curly or mixed ones. And once you’re done, run HTML Prettifier to keep your code readable and tidy with the new quote format in place.
