Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you clean a list

How do I remove duplicate lines from text?

Paste one item per line, choose the matching options, run the tool, and verify the counts before copying.

Can I remove duplicate lines without changing their order?

Yes. The retained lines remain in their original relative order.

Can duplicate matching ignore uppercase and lowercase?

Yes. Turn off case-sensitive matching when capitalization should not distinguish lines.

Can I keep the last occurrence?

Yes. Choose Last occurrence before running the tool.

How are blank lines handled?

Preserve every blank line, keep one repeated blank, or remove all blank lines.

Why do visually identical lines sometimes remain?

Hidden spaces, letter case, Unicode composition, and line endings can make lines technically different.

Is tool text uploaded?

The processor is designed to operate in the browser without sending tool text to WordPress.

Can I process CSV rows?

Use a structure-aware CSV workflow; newline-based cleanup is not a CSV parser.

How can I verify a result?

Compare input, duplicate, blank-line, and output counts, then spot-check retained values.

Does it work on mobile?

The workspace is responsive, although large lists are usually easier to review on a desktop.
