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 :-) ).

It is possible to make things usable one time. You could either make 5 different signs you can only use once, or create a dispenser that gives you the amount of zombies you need, but can only be used once. With some fancy redstone, you could probably pull it off. Check out the Kit and ResetKit signs we have in the config, and read up on how the oneTime block works in the quick reference.

Posted Jun 30, 2013Hey guys!
Got an idea for a new sign: [Sweepstake]
Allows you to set up a Sweepstake and define the prize and how much an entry costs. A sweepstake (If you don't already know) is where a random person is selected to win the prize but the more entries you put in, the higher the chance you will be selected is.

You must use some other protection plugin. We have built in support (to the next version of SignShop) to automatically lock chests using LWC, if you have that as well. The next version will be out sometime this weekend.

Oh, yeah you can use commands. I'm not sure why you would use commands if you could just use a sign that does the same thing. There is a [Command] sign that's built in, or you can create signs that run several commands. Check out our quick reference for help setting that stuff up.

Check out our tutorial video. Typically you only need the name of the sign on the top line and the price on the bottom line.

Posted Jun 23, 2013Thank you for the fast reply! Ive actually been using your plugin for a long time. I use the custom signs a lot and even use them to whitelist players and give other server perks and abilities. The only reason we even had chestshop was because some players found signshop a little hard to grasp with the chest linking and all the different sign types. We made the switch 100% recently because of chestshops inability to process enchanted items properly which resulted in a bunch of faulty shops. I absolutely LOVE your plugin and all its uses, my server wouldn't run properly without it :D
