How to bulk-update a very large Website X5 site after changing business model

I have a large site originally built for referral-based lead generation. I now want to pivot the business model, removing all references to free contractors and quote comparisons, and restructuring it to reflect direct lead generation for our own services. As the site (www.dialacontractor.co.za) has thousands of pages, what is the most efficient way to bulk-update content, either within the platform or using external tools? For example, could I export the site to Codex, make the bulk update there, and then import it back for fine-tuning? Have any users tackled a large-scale content model change like this?

The Incomedia employees will be online here again from Monday during office hours in Italy and may be able to help or give tips.
If neither the Incomedia employees nor the users of WebSite X5 have a solution, these changes would have to be made manually.
Hello Francos,
I am not familiar with Codex, in general WebSite X5 can only work with files created and modified with the software itself and websites exported from other sources will not be compatible.
There are no functions in WebSite X5 to massively update pages to remove certain contents from all pages at the same time, unfortunately.
I remain available.
