Something that might seem obvious, that had me searching the documentation for a different
function... if the text you're replacing looks like a variable i.e. $name. Make sure to use
single quotes..
str_replace("{$name}", 'Steve', $string);
will search the string for whatever the variable is set to, in my case it wasn't set at all...
str_replace('{$name}', 'Steve', $string);
Worked correctly as I was aiming for....
