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 :-) ).

Many plugins do not break in between versions of Minecraft, unless there is some really big change. I'd suggest trying the versions before and/or after the one you are looking for.

In the future you can type "/signshop sign bank" and it will give you additional info about the bank sign, or check out our signs page. Here is the layout:
This would give a bank called ExampleBank 40% of the profits from a sign. You then just punch the Bank sign and then the sign you want the Bank sign to modify with redstone.

You do not need to create regions for the room. Though if you have the hotel signs running commands to transfer something like build rights to the room, then you would need to create individual regions. Hotel signs don't do any of that by default. Check out the Quick Reference for info on creating command shops.

Posted Mar 6, 2014Hi there, I forgot how to setup a hotel room. My first hotel only shows signs with: [Hotel] on the first line,hotel name on the 2nd, time on the 3rd, and price on the 4th. Since it only shows the hotel name it confuses me as to whether I need to make separate regions for each room using the wand. Do I still have to do that and what line does the region name go on the sign? Thank you. :)

The thing is, SignShop sees the ink sac and bonemeal as the "dye" item. You can change it to something that's not a dye, like glowstone if you want to avoid that issue.

Posted Mar 5, 2014Hi. I have a question. First this plugin is great. But I use Craftbook also. I want to copy a sign. To do so thru Craftbook you have to first right click the sign using and ink sac and then left click the blank sign. I can copy the sign just fine but It keeps storing the location of the sign when I left click it instead of pasting it to the blank sign. I looked in the configs and noticed that the ink sac was used by SignShops. So i changed the item in Craftbook used to copy to bone meal. It is still doing the same thing. I have checked my configs for the sign shop and no where in there does it have anything using bonemeal. Only redstone and an ink sac. Is there a way I can fix this? I have tried putting the id for ink sac in sign shop configs instead of ink_sac. But that didn't work either. Any ideas?

Awesome, glad you like it!
@TNTftw21
Yep, all you have to do is punch another player with an ink sac or redstone then punch your sign. You will need to have signshop.changeowner in order to do so.

What can I do to make it so that Essentials Protect does NOT prevent me from using the sign? I have LWC installed, I "unlocked" the sign to me but it still did not link.
I really like this plugin because it allows me to sell custom items on my RPG server like drinks from Brewery and custom meat from All Mobs Drop Meat.
Thank you for your quick respone I appreciated that.

SignShop does not give any messages saying the sign is locked. Perhaps Essentials Protect is preventing you from linking the sign?

Posted Mar 1, 2014I have this plugin installed and when I punch the chest it registers it and than when I punch the sign it just says the sign is locked to me. I have essentials installed but I disabled the buy/sell/trade signs. Any suggestions as to why it is not linking to a sign?
