Posted May 29, 2012Im not getting an error or anything, but the announcements i set aren't being announced. In fact, nothing happens. Announcer commands dont work for me either. I tried /announcer help and got "/announcer help" as a response. I tried other announcer commands but again got "/announcer help" as a response. Any help? Maybe conflicting plugins? idk Now im getting an error message. Im currently getting the latest bukkit build and hopefully that will fix it...

it's not autoannouncer's fault, it's the relationship with spout and bukkit, it's a common problem that everybody with spout is getting, in my server, only a few people are getting double text messages. Wait till a new spout and bukkit version.

Posted May 15, 2012Please make the plugin able to reload itself if you accidentally fuck up the yaml config. (After fixing the errors)
At the moment the schedule can't be started back up unless the server is restarted (or maybe /reloaded)
Thanks for this great plugin.

you've written something wrong in the config. that's the most common reason plugins clear their config

With the latest version doing a /announcer restart reloads the config file properly now! Thanks sharkale loving the new add and remove commands makes things so much easier when editing announcements without having to restart the server constantly when there are multiple people online. Also did the Config file change recently? when updating to the latest version after my config file got messed up by some errors the format had changed quite a bit. But easy fix with a simple delete and /announcer add.

I understand what you said. What you mean can be simplified to 'separate set of announcements for each permission group'.
Btw sharkale, can you please add string for announcing URL in game chat? That would be really great, thanks.Nevah mind :)
