Frustrated using the Stylevar interface, I wrote a quick interface that allows admins to do the following:
  • View updated stylevars for the style (including stylevars updated in parent styles)
  • Search for stylevar by type (background, border, color, etc.)
  • Search for stylevar by value (see the note about this below)
  • Select multiple stylevars for editing
  • Revert multiple stylevars at a time
My idea was to create a stopgap until VBulletin 4.1 is released to still allow me to quickly and efficiently modify the style for my site.

Search by value was one of the key things I wanted to do. Unfortunately, the raw stylevar definitions are not stored, instead it's stored in the database as a serialized PHP array. As I didn't want to unpackage all the stylevars to do a simple search, I cheated. This means that searching for an integer will likely fail (searching for colors, images and strings should work).

Installation is simple. Import the xml file product-asp_de_stylevarsearch.xml, then copy the files up in their packaged directories. Likewise, to uninstall the product, uninstall it, and remove the files:

includes/xml/cpnav_vbstylevarsearch.xml
admincp/searchstylevar.php

Hope you find it useful.

Changelog
.01 - Initial Version
.02 - Updated to fix implode error when variable was null
.03 - Updated search to search for both the lower and upper case version of the value search.
.5 - Updated search to search both hexidecimal and RGB values. Additionally, I'm taking into account the shortcut hexidecimal notation. For example, searches for #FFF will also search #FFFFFF and (255,255,255), along with the lower case versions of these values.
.6 - Fixed "headers already sent" bug
