-# This find/replace is for the ElasticPress plugin.
-# 
-# When a new post is created via the WordPress dashboard, the existing behaviour of the ElasticPress plugin 
-# is to delete the post from the search index. Delteing a post that's not in the index causes a 404 error to 
-# be logged on Cloud Platform's OpenSearch proxy server.
-#
-# This change adds a check to see if the post is in the index before deleting it, preventing the 404 error.
