Add 'Select All' option to Export screen in Magento 2 admin

Question

In Magento admin, under System > Export the user can select individual attributes to be excluded from the export. I'd like to add a 'Select all' link that would select all options.

This question was 90% answered by Nadim here: How to add Select All option in Export Settings of Magento 2 , but it's lacking some detail for me to get the job done.

A) I assume this is created as a module - what should the module.xml look like?

B) Which file should the below XML go to?

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
<type name="Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Grid\Extended">
    <plugin name="VendorName_ModuleName::After" type="VendorName\ModuleName\Plugin\Block\Widget\Grid\Extended" />
</type>

(I would have asked this as a comment to the original answer, but unfortunately my reputation is not high enough to add comments.)

Answer 1

Here is the answer of you.

1. Your module.xml file look like this at following location.

app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\module.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Vendor_Extension" setup_version="1.0.0" schema_version="1.0.0" />
</config>

2. you need to create di.xml at the following location with that code.

app\code\Vendor\Extension\etc\di.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
<type name="Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Grid\Extended">
    <plugin name="VendorName_ModuleName::After" type="VendorName\ModuleName\Plugin\Block\Widget\Grid\Extended" />
</type>
