cpSettingsSort v1.0.0

[hambil]

Keywords: admincp, menu, order, sort, displayorder, settings, vBulletin Options

Description:
Simple product that gives you a "sort" menu choice that will sort the settings under vBulletin Options alphabetically. It's a little thing - but it's been driving me nuts every since I started using vBulletin, and I finally got around to doing something about it.

Features:

Fully Phrased.
Sort settings under vBulletin Options.Install:

Download the cpSettingsSort_1.0.0.zip file.
Unzip and upload all files in the upload directory to your forum root.
Import the product file in your admincp.
Sort you settings whenever they change (e.g. new hack installed).

Is there a way to set the settings back to the default sort?

Not currently.

[Boofo]

Not currently.

Can it be done fairly easily?

[hambil]

Probably. I'll look into it :) The order should still be in the cpnav xml files.

The reason I asked is because there are some admins that are used to the default oreer and on a site with more than one admin, they would have a choice.

Maybe have it write the new order and the old default order to the datastore cache and be able to call either one from there by clicking the appropriate link? Just an idea. ;)

If you guys put more hooks in the admincp it would be easier ;)

Good idea though. I'll work on it.

[Nathan2006]

What about uninstalling the hack? Will that revert them?

I made a mistake about this mod and thought it would sort out my ever expanding sidebar

cpSuperMenu will sort out your sidebar.

At the moment uninstalling does not revert the sort. I'm considering that for the next version.

Does this plugin conflict with the plugin that breaks your admincp menu into 2 pages? I think its enhanced navigation menu.

I don't know. If you can link the hack in question here, I'll look at it.

Sorry about that. You have a point. I will change it for the new version and release soon.

Would be wonderful if they played nicely together.

I don't see why it would break it. This plugin sorts the settings in the vBulletin Options list box. It has nothing to do with the admincp menu itself.

BTW, have you looked at cpSuperMenu (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=112595)? A lot of people don't seem to realize it exists for some reason ;)

[Thanatos]

No...I've never see that mod...and I've done quite a bit of searching.

I think that is really what I am looking for right there. Concidental how you wrote it, huh? :D

Thanks...I cliked install..going to check it out now.

The first and second screenshots are the same. :)

No, one is sorted the other isn't :) It's the whole point of the hack LOL

Just wanted to know if it worked on vB 3.6 RC1 so I installed it on my testboard... too bad it didn't work :surprised:
Database error in vBulletin 3.6.0 Release Candidate 1:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT varname, text
FROM phrase
WHERE phrasetypeid = PHRASETYPEID_SETTING AND
languageid IN(-1, 0, 1)
ORDER BY languageid ASC;

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'phrasetypeid' in 'where clause'
Error Number : 1054

This hack definately will be updated for 3.6 this week. It will also be made reversable.

[Watched]

i love this hack.. i just need it for 3.6 and preferrably reversible if needed.

[hambil]

Thanks :) I'm in the process of updating all my hacks for 3.6, and reversable is going to be added to this. I swear, every time I take something off my list I add two things back on :p

[wacodep]

*Clicks Install* (along with the cpSuperMenu as well).

Excellent work, hambil.
