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 :-) ).

Glad you decided to make the switch, why'd you do it, out of curiosity? Wargamer and I have been discussing implementing our own locking with SignShop, but this is also a nice idea. I'm not sure how ChestShop does it, but we take our requests in the form of tickets. I went ahead and made a ticket out of your comment that you can view here. Updates to this feature will be posted there as well.

Posted Jun 22, 2013Is it possible to have this plugin hook into LWC so that it locks a chest when you link it? Or even just add a warning when linking a chest that it is unlocked? After switching from ChestShop to SignShop, players are expecting it to have the same locking feature and Id love for this to be a feature with my favourite shop plugin too.

You can use things like [online] in your "commands:" section, so you can make a sign like "Emergency Bacon" and give the item for uncooked pork to all the players on a server using item commands from another plugin.

No, but you can use many of the various sign coloring plugins with SignShop.

Yep, the first thing is to make sure you have some plugin that has a warp command, as SignShop doesn't have one built in. If you do, then your command probably needs to know the name of the player you are trying to warp. Command signs run commands as if they were typed into the console. You can do one of two things to fix the problem: Either add "!player" to the sign (no quotes) where the player name should be for the command, OR replace "runCommand" with "runCommand{asUser}" in the config under the Command sign. The {asUser} option will only work if you are using a permission plugin that supports "*" permission nodes. Let me know how it goes.

Posted Jun 9, 2013Do the Command signs work? I tried using them as warp signs, but the signs don't do anything when made. The [Command] turns blue, however It will not run the command. Any help, or am I doing something wrong? I'll put an example of my sign below.
Line1:[Command] Line2:warp Line3:shop Line4:$0
I've also tried putting 'warp shop' on line two and leaving line three blank, but it still won't work.

Please open a ticket with your version of SignShop, dynmap, etc, so we can test. You can use the dropdown on the left of the dynmap map to disable them as well.

Posted Jun 9, 2013SignShop Markers still appearing on the Dynmap after setting "EnableDynmapSupport: false"
I assume there is another feature to disable in the Dynmap config.

Bukkitforge is buggy, do yourself a favor and upgrade to something like Tekkit to avoid some frustration.

Posted Jun 8, 2013I'll see if I can keep calm, explain how the plugin is updated to 1.5.2 yet Vault isnt? Not only am I extremely confused but I said hm, maybe its just me. So I through both in the plugins folder, launch up my server (uses bukkitforge because my server has mods) and I couldnt get shops to link or anything. Perms are all set and everything. So I continue to try, linking still not working, signs not changing. So now here I am about ready to punch my screen cause I'm not sure how long it will be until my tolerance for anger breaks. In the most nice way possible, could you lend a lad a hand?

We will keep you posted in this ticket. Also, I assume you were right clicking to get the item and left clicking to see what it was selling.

Seem to have a bit of a problem here. I know everything is installed correctly and I did read the Reference, as well as the FAQs and watched the tut video.
Version SignShop v2.6.2 for CB 1.5.1-R0.2 (Still Running on a 1.5.1 Server) Report: Created an infinite Items Shop [iBuy] and set the sell price to 250. Put the item in a chest punched chest with redstone then punched sign with redstone. Sign turned blue. Now the problem. I go to right click on the sign and I dont get a description of what is being sold. No big deal as I put on the second line that it sells diamonds (but still a bug?). Now for the big issue. Left click the sign and get the item, however no money is subtracted from my account. And this error is spit out in the server log.
