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 :-) ).

Yes, I'm still trying to find a nice way to host that list on Github.
Played around with Maven but that doesn't seem to like sharing local repo's accross Github >.>
Here's a zip with all the Jar's dependencies.
If you have any suggestions for how those should properly be hosted on Github, I'm all ears :)
To answer your question though, it's Bukkit 1.3.2 (R3.0) and 1.5.1 (latest beta).

Posted Apr 27, 2013Hey, do you have a list of dependencies you use to build this these days? It seems you are using multiple craftbukkit versions or something but I am not 100% sure which ones.

SignShop disables itself when there is a problem with Vault. Make sure you are using the latest version. If that's not the issue, please make a ticket.

This definitely works with Crackshot. It's not technically a dependency, so we don't list it there (that's mostly for shop protection and things like that) You can find Crackshot in our "extending SignShop" section. Enjoy.

Posted Apr 25, 2013Can you confirm this works with CrackShot? I've been told it does, but I cannot find it in the Optional dependency list...
Thanks.

Posted Apr 22, 2013Hi, i believe your plugin has a conflict with McMyAdmin group promotion commands. Now i want to keep using this plugin but it would make my life more easy to run my server if i could get this fixed?
I believe sign shop overrides onPlayerCommandPreprocess. not sure if it is this. by mcma compact plugin uses this to process some commands and the 2 plugin together wont work.
I did make a test server without sign shop and mcma works just fine.
Thanks for any help and if you need more information just reply to this comment.

Turns out there was a problem was with Vault. The jar might have been corrupted or something. Reinstalled Vault and everything is working great now. There wasn't anything in the logs other than "loading", "enabling", and then "disabling" of sign shop. I had to swap over to a different shop plugin and then the startup logs showed a vault failure. Swapped in a fresh Vault jar and then signshop works great.
Thanks.

We have not had any issues with 1.5.1 r02. Please post your startup log in a ticket and fill out the requested info.

Well, I'm not sure what you mean by "the information in addition to what is needed to set it up". We don't really recommend using more than one shop plugin, but if you want to disable the config readding those signs, then you can go into the signshop.jar and then the config.yml and remove the entries in there. Of course whenever we release a new version (which is pretty regularly) you would need to do that again. Same goes for the removal of [SignShop]. You can certainly recompile the plugin, but you'd have to do it whenever we put out a new version :-/. We feel that having [SignShop] in front of the messages is a very small price to pay for a fully featured shop plugin. Wargamer and I have discussed offering a "Premium" version of the plugin before, but I suppose we can talk about it again. Also, if you are using Essentials, you might want to consider using the worth.yml for your server shop. I don't know if you allow players to buy and sell to the server, but you can manage some of that using one SignShop sign that dynamically reads from the worth.yml. EnablePriceFromWorth: true, and just put [worth] on the bottom line of the sign.

I need to be able to disable the [Buy] and [Sell] sign or change it, because I'm using essentials for server market. The reason for this is that I don't like the way SignShop displays the information in addition to what is needed to set it up - takes a lot of work to set up every item in the market.
When I change it in the config, reload the server configs (or restarts), the config resets to default - enabling [Buy]/[Sell] sign again.. This plugin is useless for me right now. (In earlier versions, I could do this without config resets)
I want only a few features in it for the players to use.
Earlier I asked for a Premium version to remove the [SignShop] text as I really dislike ads and it makes the server look really cheap spamming plugin names everywhere.
I'm been thinking about recompiling the plugin and put it without it because of that, but it feels unethical.

Posted Apr 21, 2013Hi, I'm trying to get SignShop to work with craftbukkit 1.5.1 r02. The server logs shows sign shop starting and then disabled. No other errors.
Any ideas on what I'm missing. I've got essentials loaded and working fine for eco and vault.
Thanks

If you are having issues, please post an error log. SignShop has been tested on 1.5 servers, so there is probably some other problem. Check your startup log for any errors.
