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 Aug 28, 2012A quick question that hopefully someone might know an answer.
New players buying a plot of land to build on.
Is this automatic (or can it be) or do i have to mark plots out and sell them? Can i sell an item/s the player can put down to mark his area/region Is this shop capable of this?
I have craftconomy, signshop, worldedit/gaurd and bukkitpermissions Some pointers would be great, or just if the shop can sell this
Cheers

Posted Aug 28, 2012New version of Vault cured it, or installing an old version caused it... All good now :) Lesson is dont let the server host assure you you have the latest installed
Thanks for your help

That's very strange. It sounds like it is a problem with Vault though. Does the startup of your server say anything about Vault hooking with Craftconomy? Are there any other errors on startup?

What type of shop are you setting up? If that is the error message you are getting then you probably don't have 2 currency to pay yourself, so the transaction is canceled. You probably need to figure out what command it is to give yourself some money.

Posted Aug 28, 2012Im getting 'The shop doesnt have 2.0 to pay you' I have vault installed and craftconomy, Ive been through the craftconomy setup and that didnt seem a problem so (you just answer some on screen questions) so is there something im supposed to do to link the economy top the shop somehow?

No hassle at all. If you go into the config and add "giveOwnerMoney" to the Disenchant sign, that should work. You can check out the Quick Reference for all of the different blocks to use when creating/modifying signs. [Slot] signs will give the owner of the shop money. [iSlot] signs will not, as they are infinite and are better for server shops.

Posted Aug 27, 2012Sorry if I'm causing any hassle here but is there any possible way to make a [Disenchant] sign pay the owner of the sign rather than the money going nowhere? Also, while I'm asking questions, I haven't tested this myself but if I make a [Slot] sign, will the money go towards me or will it be like an admin sign and take the money?

Yeah, punch means punch. I have actually recorded a new video specifically for SignShop 2 and I plan to release it soon.

Posted Aug 27, 2012Im right clicking the sign with the red stone and nothing is happening? In the video tutorial the guy says 'place a chest' the screen shows a private chest... does it have to be a private chest? If so how do you place a private chest? (and give him a kick and tell him to be specific! its a tutorial)

That's correct. It's stored locally, so we cannot change that data when a player is offline.

Posted Aug 26, 2012I was just wondering whether an Ender chest would work with SignShops, my first guess would be that it doesn't due to the fact that the inventory is local but just to be sure I wanted to ask on here.

It doesn't have anything to do with GM, it's some protection plugin blocking your access. Are you running anything like LWC, Lockette? Or are you building close to spawn? And are you OP?

Posted Aug 25, 2012When I click on the chest it keeps saying you are not allowed to link this.
I am the owner of the server and I am using group manager
