Persistent Inventory Search
by Serilum
Creative players who switch tabs or close the inventory keep their place with Persistent Inventory Search, which holds the last query and restores it when the search tab reopens.
What it does
The mod stores the text typed into the Creative inventory search box. Switching to another tab or closing the inventory normally clears that query, but here it is kept and shown again the next time the search tab is opened. Other inventory and tab behavior stays unchanged.
Collective is required. The mod is client-side only, so only the client needs it and servers do not. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 26 release versions, 1.18.2 – 26.3, and is not open source, with All rights reserved applying.
Key features
Query retained on tab switch
The search text survives moving to another Creative tab and back, so the same filter stays in place.
Query restored on reopen
Closing the inventory and opening it again brings back the last search without retyping it.
Other behavior unchanged
Inventory layout, tabs and item handling work as they do without the mod.
