ChestShop (iConomyChestShop)
Acrobot released his first Android game, would you mind giving it a go?
ChestShop
A simple, yet very powerful system for making physical shops using signs and chests.
It's never been that easy to create shops! With features like shop protection and anti-lag protection, you won't have to worry about your server's economy anymore!
"Just works"! ChestShop supports almost all economy plugins by using Vault!
(Versions above 3.9.2 also support economy plugins using the Reserve API)
Some known compatible and incompatible economy plugins.
Please check if there are newer development builds before reporting issues!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the file's changelog!
The plugin by default submits anonymous stats about your server (player count, plugin/server version and type) to a public statistics websites (mcstats.org and bstats.org) in order to provide the developers with usage information. If you wish to opt out, you can do so in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and bstats/config.yml files. It also features an auto-update feature, which can be turned off in the config.

Using shops
It's easy! Just right-click the sign to buy, left-click to sell. (You can configure the buttons in the config file!)
How to create a shop
Player shop
| Place a chest on the ground | |
| Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it) | |
| On the sign, write: |  |
| Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players) | |
| Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell | |
|
Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon (:) |
Some of the possible price combinations: "B 5:5 S", "B 5", "S free" |
|
The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards. Optionally you can put the actual name on it. You can find out the name of the item you're holding by doing /iteminfo |

| Resulting Shop |  |
| A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616 |

Admin Shop - shop with unlimited items
Firstly, you've got to be sure that you've the ChestShop.admin permission or that you are an OP. To make an Admin Shop, simply put "Admin Shop" (configurable in config.yml) on the first line of the sign when creating the shop. Admin Shops do not require a chest!

Posted Jul 18, 2020Make sure you are testing with normal user permissions in survival and not with admin permissions and creative mode. Beyond that you are going to have to provide more information like your config and shop sign setup.

Posted Jul 15, 2020Hi, i have OP and i cant create any Admin Shop.
I can't understand what it's like with "Starting with 3.11 ChestShop requires a server providing the Spigot-API!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the changelog! "
My server version is 1.16.1 and i think i have a issue.

Posted Jul 16, 2020What issue do you have when creating the shop? Make sure the plugin actually enabled (by checking the log or /plugins)
As for the warnings: ChestShop requires at least Spigot starting with version 3.11 for proper 1.16 support so if you use a server which only provides the Bukkit API it will not work properly. (Bukkit hasn't been developed since 1.7.10 anyways, the Spigot-API is the de-facto standard Minecraft plugin-API now)
The other warning just tells you to read the update notes if you are upgrading from a version before 3.11.

Posted Jul 10, 2020I possible to see the content on the chest or any other way to be sure the enchants, potions, etc? I mean I use player shops and if they put any potion or enchanted book, the buyer don't know if the content is the correct, my player use to put and sign to say what are they selling, but someone can do that and put anything else.

Posted Jul 16, 2020Players can run the /iteminfo <itemcode> command to see information on the item sold in the shop. Beyond that there is no inbuilt way to get any additional information but a feature request for an additional shop info command is already open on github so feel free to provide input there.

Posted Jul 9, 2020I've created an admin shop for selling a book that uses a click event to open a document with recipes for the brewery plugin. The book i generated with commands functions properly, but those bought from the shop do not. Is there a way to fix this?

Posted Jul 16, 2020You can try selling it via a chest (admin shops will search for one too) but beyond that it isn't possible without fixing the bug directly in your server software. ChestShop only uses the (de)serialization API to store the item data so that would be an issue there.

Posted Jul 7, 2020This plugin requires an economy plugin (which is interacted with Vault) and most economy plugins use a purely virtual currency. If you have an economy plugin which relies on real items then it's up to that one to manage where the items go while the player is offline. I imagine that transactions will either be blocked or held until the player joins and the items can be added to their inventory.

Posted Jul 4, 2020Hello! I would like to leave a few suggestions. First of all I believe you should add support for different types of containers to be used with the plugin. Also I would like to see multiplayer access. Thank you! Hope to see these suggestions in an update!

Posted Jul 7, 2020All containers can be configured in the config file of the plugin. (By default they are set to chests)
Access for multiple players is a bit hard to do as the plugin relies on the concept of managing everything via the sign and writing multiple names there isn't really possible. It's possible though to use LWC instead of the internal protection for the container and manage access to the shop that way.

Posted Jul 3, 2020You can sell all the items, simply use the autofill functionality by typing a question mark
?on the last line or by using the name that/iteminfoshows for the sign.-

Posted Jun 28, 2020The plugin should already work on 1.16 (especially the latest development builds!), do you have any issues? If so please post them in the issue tracker or the github repo after making sure they aren't fixed in the latest development builds already :)
