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 :-) ).

So, Signshop.Signs.Buy allows the user to use and create.
If thats the cause, shouldn't their be a Signshop.Signs.DenyCreate permission node?

That's an interesting idea, make a ticket explaining how you might want it to work, and wargamer will look at it.
@dockter
As long as a player doesn't have a DenyUse node, they should be able to use all the shops.

Posted Mar 10, 2012Is there a way to allow a player to use a BUY / SELL sign without allowing them to create it?

Posted Mar 9, 2012Idk if you can do this or even if you want to but... Could you add a closing time for shops based on minecraft time. Like set it so you can only buy/sell during the day or night

Interesting idea. Right now wargamer is working on getting double chests to work properly. I'm going to turn your comment into a ticket and see what he has to say about it.

Posted Mar 7, 2012it works great!
the fact you can put your chest far away and don't have to have them in the way. the color coding for empty and stocked chests is also a good feature. using dev 2037. i did have a moment where i didn't think it was working i was buying from my own shop and wondering why my funds were not changing. lol thanks for the great mod.

It is bad practice to update your server to non recommended builds. Most plugin developers only build against recommended builds. Fortunately for you, wargamer2010 had the time to update the plugin BEFORE the recommended build comes out. This may not happen in the future, so you might want to consider that.

playerIsOp means that only those with Signshop.Admin.* can make the sign. If you don't want the user to pay, you can just leave the bottom line blank on a [Buy] or [Sell] sign or put a 0 there, then no money changes hands, but items do. If that's not what you are talking about, then this is what you want.
You probably want to set some messages for the transactions and things later in the config. Also, I'm not sure if you wanted those signs left for admins or OPs only, so I kept that in there, you can always remove it.
@mxm24
So you might use Signshop.Signs.Buy to let a player create a [Buy] sign, or -Signshop.Signs.Device to disallow members creating Device signs.

if instead of:
gSell: givePlayerMoney,takePlayerItems,giveShopItems,playerIsOp
I have this:
gSell: givePlayerMoney,takePlayerItems,playerIsOp
Would that work? Oh and when it says "playerIsOp" does that mean the seller has to be op too, not just the buyer?

This plugin requires Vault so you can use whatever permission system, and whatever economy you'd like. I assure you, Vault does not screw up movement or anything of that sort. Vault doesn't do ANYTHING unless another plugin talks to it, which in this case SignShop does.
@Natokill4
You can't have them on one sign, but you can go into the config and create a new sign that does both.
@mxm24
Replace the * with the sign names for a full list of permissions. It would be silly to list them twice.
