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 May 23, 2021Hi, nice of you to pick this up, have had an idea for some time now, and I read you are busy atm, but maybe for future reference?
In a world, many many signshops can be made by one person, unfortunately, if all shops that become empty, or close to empty, sending a message is one thing, but it is a lot on your plate sometimes and to keep track. Instead of every time you log in, getting overwhelmed by messaging shops that are empty, why not every shop hands you a tp-link to it's location and tell you what item is needed. This way you get a message, not all at once, but one at a time, and you go gather the items, tp to the shop, fill it back up and the message is gone!....
Hope you like this idea more than being overloaded with info that is hard to handle...

Posted May 15, 2021One thing that would be really nice to add is a way to track purchases. It would save time knowing what items may need restocking, especially when there is still one left in the chest so the link hasn't turned red yet. Maybe something like [SalesDay] or [SalesWeek], and just relist the same text that went to chat along with the date it was bought. Another possibility could be to have a book that you can link to a number of signs that just records any transactions by the signs.
Love the app! Thanks!

There has been some interest in having in game transaction history. You have a couple good ideas here. Unfortunately I do not have time right now to add new features but I will certainly keep your suggestions in mind.

That depends on what economy plugin you are using. Most economy plugins have a configurable starting amount and/or a command for it. Remember you need Vault and a Vault compatible economy plugin for SignShop to work.

What is your economy plugin? It is a separate plugin from Vault. There are many different options for your economy plugin. Examples include Essentials(just disable the Essentials signs), Gringotts, Ultimate Economy etc.

That is not from signshop. Signshop doesn't care what you put for the item name. You need to disable all of the Essentials signs.

Instead of "@p" you can use the SignShop built in placeholders. Use "!player" for the player that uses the sign and "!owner" for the owner of the sign. These and others can be found in the SSQuickReference.pdf in the SignShop folder.
