I have the following in my FFF personal.ini:

Code:
replace_metadata:
 category,genre=>Hockey RPF=>Men's Hockey RPF
This works great for the older fics, but since the new fics also have "Hockey RPF" as part of their tag, it changes them to "Men's Men's Hockey RPF."

Is there a way to only match the full tag, so that the shorter tag is changed but the longer (already correct) tag stays the same?
Line anchors.

Code:
 category=>^Hockey RPF$=>Men's Hockey RPF
