Ability to search all settings easily

  • Please add the ability to search all settings easily.

    On iOS when you are in Settings you can search by keyword and it will show you the possible matches across all sections of settings.

    Right now I am looking for a redirect setting and I cannot remember which plugin or section it lives in (eventually found it in Theme My Login)

    Thanks for listening!

    You can see a list of all of your site’s options at the hidden all options page. To access this when logged in as an administrator, go to the address:

    https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/options.php

    No additional information is shown – such as which plugin added which option, however the name of each option might give some clues.

    You should be able change any options which do not contain serialized data, although I would probably not recommend doing so.

    That’s great!

    It would have helped me find the setting for sure.

    Many thanks!

    I made a simple plugin which I use on my local test & development sites to add an link to the options page in the admin settings menu:

    
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: All Options
Description: Adds a new menu item to the settings menu to enable the administrator view all saved options
Author: cubecolour
Version: 1.0.0
Author URI: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/ability-to-search-all-settings-easily/
License: GPL
*/

if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;

add_action('admin_menu', 'cc_alloptions_menuitem');

function cc_alloptions_menuitem() {
	add_submenu_page('options-general.php', 'All Settings', 'All Settings', 'administrator', 'options.php');
}
