Ancient Gates
Introduction
This plugin can allow those with permission, to create gates. These gates will teleport any player, entity (incl. passenger) or vehicle (incl. passenger) that enters that gate to the designated location and/or execute a command. This is a very easy to use, easy to maintain transportation plugin! As a bonus, the gates can look any way you like (vertical or horizontal), with a selection of portal materials.
To get started, try the in game command: /gate

Thank you very much. Also, is there a way to reload the config from in game? If not, that would be a great feature to have.
Update: So I set enforce access to true. It no longer lets him "use" the portal, but now when my player attempts to enter the portal, instead of bouncing him out of it, it lets him pass right through it and displays the message "You lack the permissions to enter this gate." How do I get the portal to bounce him out and not let him pass through?
Update 2: The bouncing the player out may have been caused by Worldguard now that I think about it. That would be a great feature for Ancientgates though. Could you make it so it bounces any player who tries to enter a portal to which they don't have the perms?

As of v1.6.5, you need to set "enforceAccess" true in config (conf.json).

Posted Jul 20, 2013With version 1.7, all of my players can use ancient gates despite not having a single permission node (Minecraft Version 1.6.2). In Minecraft 1.5.2, it works fine; when someone without the node uses a portal, it displays "You are not permitted to enter this area." I cannot block players from entering portals in 1.6.2.

Posted Jul 18, 2013somehow when you write /gate setmaterial "ID" and spell the material wrong or an non-supported material it will show "this is not a valid gate material, valid gate materials: null, null, null, null, null, null" and so on

You could create the gate like in the video above, warp to your warp location and then use the "/gate setto" command.

You cannot be using the old gate information, the format of your gates.json is in the new 1.7.0 format.
Therefore you've used a development version at some point and then switched back to 1.6.7 which doesn't support the 1.7.0 format.
Simple fix is use the latest dev version on your dedicated box with the gates.json you pastebin'd.

This made no sense to me.
All i know, i updated plugin, used the old gate information (copied the config files to my server) and it does not find them. I have the recommended version of plugin (v 1.6.7)

Make sure you're using the latest development build (actually waiting for BukkitDev approval) and double check that the AncientGates plugin on your dedicated box has not altered the gates.json file since your pastebin.
It looks like your gates.json file has been updated to the latest format, but then the AncientGates version on your dedicated box is an older version and therefore expecting the old format.

Posted Jul 15, 2013Hello there, this looks great! but it would be very nice if you could add a feature there a command can be executed on enter.
Another thing that could come in handy is that you can enable first enter free to a portal.
will use this on my server project :)

Yes. I use multiverse myself, its designed to work with multiverse :).
This is hardcoded into minecarft, the nether portal searching algorithm within minecraft searches for the nearest nether portal blocks in relation to the other worlds portal. So it will exit at the first portal block it finds within that chunk.
Not much I can suggest other than use an alternative portal material, or move your nether portal further away.
