SignEdit
Description
This plugin allows you to edit signs while they are still on block/wall they were placed on.
Features
- Logging.. Every edit made to a sign is logged in either console or a separate log file.
- Colours! See the Colours With SignEdit page
- As an added bonus, SignEdit will parse colours when you place a sign.
- SignEdit throws a SignChangeEvent with every edit. This means that if a player is trying to make a sign that they don't have permission to create, they can't! This is compatible with almost every major plugin that uses signs. It also works with HawkEye, so you can see who changed what!

Whoops.. never mind. I just realised I had an old config and had to enable the "usepermission" flag. Sorry about that :)

Posted Sep 18, 2013Hi,
Firstly, great plugin! I've been using it regularly for a long time!
I've created ticket #14 because your plugin is allowing any player to create colored signs regardless of permissions. I want to prevent some players from having color on signs. With SignEdit unloaded, everything works fine and players can't make colored signs. As soon as I load the plugin, the sign color starts working again.
Also, your code on github seems out of date. Would you mind updating?
Thank you :)

Posted Aug 29, 2013Hi! There is a little problem!
You restrict 15 caracters on a line but when we put color with &a (...) &a is counted!
-> &a#&c&f&a&c&f&a&f&c&b&d&4&2&4&5&4&d
is transformed into a green "#" instead of 1 green "#" and 4 purple "#"-

Posted Jun 22, 2013For those who are having problems with 3.3.x, turn off all your plugins and test signedit. It works fine. Next, enable your plugins one at a time and test signedit, when you discover which plugin is blocking signedit report back.
