SignShop v5

SignShop allows you to set up physical shops by punching a chest with your items you want to sell, then punching a sign (while holding redstone dust). It's easy to set up, and even easier to customize!
This plugin requires Vault and a vault compatible economy plugin.

Extending SignShop with other Plugins
| Plugin | Description |
|---|---|
| Vault | Works with all standard economies (EssentialsEco, iConomy, BOSEconomy, Gringotts, and more) and permission plugins (LuckPerms, Permissions 3, bPermissions, PEX, GroupManager, PermissionsBukkit, zPermission (and defaults to OP permissions, if you don't want to use a permission system)). |
| For sign and chest protection, though SignShop has built in sign protection. | |
| Use the worth.yml for dynamic sign prices by putting [worth] on the bottom line of the sign (must be enabled in SignShop config) | |
| SignShopGuardian | Save your inventory when you die. |
| SignShopHotel | Allow players to rent rooms for a period of time. |
| dynmap | Show shop locations. |
| Multiverse | Supports Multiverse worlds. |
| WildcardCommands | Make SignShop run commands for all players online. |
| Towny | Use Towny banks and only let players make shops in Towny shop plots. (Thanks ryvix!) |
| WorldGuard | Respects build permissions, and you can only let players make shops in regions with the allow-shop flag. |
| ChestShop | Convert from ChestShop format to SignShop format by just punching the sign with redstone. |

Example SignShop

This is an example of how to set up a [Buy] sign with SignShop. The sign above is linked to a chest containing items. In this example, it will sell an enchanted pickaxe for 600 Waffles (Waffles are our server's currency :-) ).

You don't need to write anything about the item on the sign. You just put the item in the chest and it knows what item you are selling.

Posted Mar 26, 2013when i buy or sell something my money balance does not change. i am using craftconomy for my economy (supported by vault) PEX for permissions and i have vault installed. is it like this because i am Op? btw if you could suggest a different economy plugin that is up to date that would be great! (the problem could be in craftconomy but i dont think so) this plugin seems legit :)

You don't need to place anything about the item on the sign. Like I mentioned in my previous comment, please watch our tutorial video for help setting up a shop.
@travja
Are you using a dev build of 1.5.1?

What do you think a good way to link the room and the region would be? Also, please make a ticket with this request and how you think it should work.

Posted Mar 25, 2013Hello, i have a question regarding SignShopHotel : First its really nice that the door comes under control from the renter. I missed that in SRM. But what's about the rented room itself? I didn't read anything about worldguard. So there is no region in the room itself where the renter becomes member of ? If so, this should mean the room must prepared with chests etc. before and the renter cant build anything in the room. Hmm, maybe this ts a feature option, also maybe a rollback function after rent time is expired to set room state like before?! What do u think about?

Where are you trying to do that? You don't need to know any of that stuff for setting up a SignShop. Watch our tutorial video if you need any help creating a shop.

Do you mean like a Trade shop?
@Ruphies
Good point. I've added support for Trapped Chests, Hoppers and Droppers in the latest dev build. Feel free to let us know if that solves your problem.
Dev build is available here.

Posted Mar 24, 2013I was away this weekend but wanted to let you all know the Trapped Chests do not work with signshops. That could have been my problem. They look the same in creative.

We hear mixed reports. There is not a recommended build out for 1.5.1, so use at your own risk.
