I have created a snippet and saved it.

I use this on many blog posts by adding the snippet.

Now I want to update the snippet and have it change on all the places I put it.

How can I do this?

(This is very useful for me to change information in one place instead of many)

Snippets don’t allow for that. Check out [Kevin’s solution](https://forum.ghost.org/t/add-partial-inside-of-content/18518/8) (although I believe `elem.innerHtml` should be `elem.innerHTML`).

Where are these saved if I were to self host ghost? I assume in the database and if I wanted to update the snippet I could overwrite the record?
