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 :-) ).

Posted Jan 3, 2014@Devinish I am using an economy plugin: iConomy v7.0 EDIT:
Anyway, so I deleted my softdepend: BKCommonLib and ProtocolLib from my plugin.yml in my Vault, and it showed enabled to SignShop, but even still, right clicking signs will not do anything. The signshop does run, though.

Posted Jan 3, 2014My SignShop plugin is not working anymore..I have v2.8.2 for my CB 1.6.4- R.2.0 server. Back then, the signs used to work..but whenever I right click them now, a transaction does not occur..in fact, nothing happens. So I re-downloaded everything: SignShop, Vault, BKCommonLib, ProtocolLib. And when I started up the server, this is what showed:
[SignShop] Enabling SignShop v.2.8.2 [SignShop] Successfully started Metrics, see http:/mcstats.org for more information. [SEVERE] [SignShop] Vault plugin not enabled, SignShop can not run! [WARNING] [SignShop] Could not hook into Vault's Economy!
So yeah..I am very new at this, so could someone help me find out how to enable Vault for this plugin? It would be very helpful for my server and friends playing on it. Thanks!

We have never encountered an issue like this before. Are you sure it was due to SignShop?

You put the group to which you would like to promote the player on the 2nd line of the sign. Running the command "/signshop sign promote" will give you info about the promote sign.
@JustinDoezMC
Again, if you are encountering issues, please create a ticket. We need to know things like version numbers so we can test on your setup. Make sure to check for any errors on startup as well.
@DmNova
Please create a ticket with the information requested.
@Lionhard98
You should be able to create the SCS by just clicking the slab. SCS likes to change their files around on us alot, so sometimes it breaks. If that's the case, there should be an error in the console when you try to link the slab to the shop sign. You can also use item frames and create displays with SignShop, without using SCS. If you DO encounter an error, please create a ticket.

Posted Jan 1, 2014Hello ! Amazing plugin, I use it on my server and we all love it :D
I'm just wondering : How to make the [Promote] signs .... they just don't work on my server.
Looked in "Signs:" section of the config, and can't find the playerPromote syntax.
How does it work to add it, i didn't understand in the wiki :(

Posted Jan 1, 2014How do I make an infinite shop again? The video tutorial and help pages were confusing to me. I want to be able to set up a sign and people buy and sell things without having to restock. Many people on my server complained about the shops being out of stock and not functioning properly. Also, is there a way someone can sell something and the item(s) they sell vanish but they get their money? I simply have no more space for chests.
Thanks,
Orchface

You buy things from Buy shops and sell things to Sell shops. At least that's our logic anyway. The good news is, you can go into the config file and replace "Buy:" with "Sell:" and vice-versa if you think it's backwards. If you do that, you should also do "iBuy:", "gBuy", etc. as well so your users don't get REALLY confused.

Posted Dec 31, 2013Uhmm i found a bug, about the SignShop, if you make a [iBuy] Shop with enchanted armor and you restart or you're server crashed it kinda removes the enchantment when buying the armor, it just gives a regular armor but when you look at the chest, the armor is enchanted?
Thanks for making this plugin too,

Whenever you setup the sign shop, the contents of the shop will be bought/sold. If you would like just one of the item to be sold to the player, then put just one of that item in the chest, hit the chest with redstone, then hit the sign for the chest.
The same holds true if you want to sell two of an item, three, four, or 500 of an item. You can also put multiple items in at once then link the chest to a sign in order to sell all of those items at once.
I certainly don't mean to be rude, but you could have answered your own question simply by reading the plugin's pages. http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/signshop/pages/faq/ It's covered in the FAQ.

The golden axe is only there to prevent you from accidentally destroying the shop in creative mode. It does not add any additional permissions. If you want to change that tool, you can do so in the config. if you want to disable that feature all together you can set ProtectShopsInCreative to false as well.
@janoyo1234
The sellers.yml contains all of your active shops. Try using an old version of that file when those shops worked.
