Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

Support thread and notification for this helper mod.

Description:
"This mod adds a new page named "Search Configuration Keys" in the Admin->Tools-> section.
The new page lists all the configuration keys and provides a search facility of the configuration table's title and description fields to find that option "you know you have seen somewhere".

Improved version available here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=1639

The original code can be found here:
zencarttips.co.uk/quick-tip-2-find-admin-options-quickly-in-zen-cart
named as reference_cfg_key.

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

I'll just take the credit for a bit of a clean-up, as with all things all upload I just tinker a bit.
Maybe someone could expand this mod to index all the configuration keys...

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

Minor bug in two of my 1.3.9d installs:

After installation of this mod you may notice that, when calling

Admin > Modules > Payment
Admin > Modules > Shipping
Admin > Modules > Order Totals

the heading of each of these pages has changed to 'Search Configuration Keys' (without the quotes) instead of 'Payment Modules' , 'Shipping Modules' etc

Solution:
=========

in admin/search_cfg_keys.php change line 4 from this

define('HEADING_TITLE','Search Configuration Keys');

to this

define('HEADING_TITLE_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS','Search Configuration Keys');

and in admin/includes/languages/english/search_cfg_keys.php change line 79 from this

<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>

to this

<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS; ?></td>

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this behavior?

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

The language files were located in
admin\includes\languages\-----\extra_definitions

which loads the contants globally.
Either the constants used in the language files should be given a unique name as per the post above, or the files should be moved up a level - I have done this and submitted a v1.2 to the download section.

regards

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

Ive noticed a bug I think when hoovering over the Tools drop down menu. The menu displays: BOX_TOOLS_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS at the bottom. Once I select it, it changes to: Search Configuration Keys. When you come back out of the page the menu reverts back to: BOX_TOOLS_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS again. I am running v1.3.9f

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

Yes you are right, the 1.2 download has a file missing.

Make a file here with this name

YOUR_ADMIN _NAME\includes\extra_datafiles\search_cfg_keys.php

and put this in it
[PHP]define('FILENAME_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS', 'search_cfg_keys');
define('BOX_TOOLS_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS', 'Search Configuration keys');[/PHP]

v1.3 will have this in it.

Re: Search Configuration Keys - Admin mod

the file referred to above should of course have php tags too, so should be

<?php
define('FILENAME_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS', 'search_cfg_keys');
define('BOX_TOOLS_SEARCH_CFG_KEYS', 'Search Configuration keys');
?>
