CraftSearch

Search Bar Plus 2.0.3

Search Bar Plus is a client-side Valheim mod that adds fast recipe and chest search tools while keeping the vanilla Improvements workflow intact.

Features

Recipe search

• Search recipes in the inventory, workbench, forge, cauldron, and other crafting panels.
• Search the localized item name with case-insensitive, accent-insensitive, multi-word matching.
• Use partial mod names with @, including quoted names with spaces: @reef axe or @"Reef Packs" backpack.
• Search input is available on both Production and Improvements tabs.
• Crafting and chest search text use separate memory settings.

Quantity crafting

• Production-only quantity input with minus, plus, and direct numeric editing.
• Quantity means recipe executions. A recipe that creates 20 arrows produces 1,500 arrows at quantity 75.
• Resource requirements, output labels, and craft time scale with the selected quantity.
• Crafting is disabled when the selected quantity cannot be supplied.
• The vanilla Shift/AltPlace modifier is ignored only while the custom Production quantity row is active.
• Toggle Enable Quantity Crafting at any time in Configuration Manager. The custom controls disappear immediately; an already-running batch finishes first, and new crafts use vanilla behavior, including five crafts while Shift is held.
• During crafting, the row becomes Cancel and the progress bar stays beside the action button.
• The Improvements tab keeps the vanilla Improve button and behavior.
• Compatible with detected chest-pulling crafting mods: recipe requirements and the custom craft button use the native patched resource checks, while the selected craft quantity remains exact.

Chest tools

• Search opened chests and containers by localized item name.
• Matching items are packed into the visible grid while slot interaction remains intact.
• Clear the search to restore the original grid.
• Sort chest contents alphabetically with the compact sort button below the weight indicator.

Recipe category filters

• Vertical, single-selection filters for All, Weapons, Armor, Consumables, Construction, Other, and detected mod sources.
• Selecting the active category returns to All.
• Mod categories are created only for mods that provide visible recipes and wrap after 20 entries per column.
• Built-in categories keep a stable vertical order when exclusions change; visible buttons remain compact with no gaps.
• Category tooltips use the vanilla style after one second and follow the selected game language.
• Armor, weapons, consumables, and construction use generated chest-plate, crossed-swords, potion, and hammer sprites instead of item images or unsupported font glyphs.
• ExcludedRecipeCategories can hide built-in categories, all mod categories, or matching mod names.

Language and compatibility

• Search, craft, cancel, and category labels support 35 language identifiers with English fallback.
• Does not require server installation or Jötunn.
• Keeps Valheim's unlocked recipes, requirements, and recipe order.
• Only the repetitive vanilla Setting selected recipe diagnostic is suppressed; other logs remain available.

Configuration Manager

Gameplay features are enabled by default. Craft debug logging is disabled by default and is intended only for troubleshooting.

Important settings:

• EnableCraftSearch: show recipe search fields.
• EnableCraftQuantity: enable Production quantity crafting immediately. An in-progress custom batch finishes before the feature fully turns off; subsequent crafts use Valheim's native quantity and Shift behavior.
• EnableModSearch: enable @mod recipe filtering.
• KeepCraftSearchText and KeepChestSearchText: remember each search independently.
• EnableChestSearch: show chest search.
• EnableChestSort: show the chest sort button.
• EnableRecipeTypeFilters: show recipe category filters.
• KeepRecipeTypeFilters: keep the selected category after closing the interface.
• ExcludedRecipeCategories: comma-separated category or mod names to omit.
