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 :-) ).

Its not that bukkit knows its a item but the fact that it works until there is a reboot/restart of the server.

Chances are, it's your economy plugin. Check your server logs to see if there are any errors.

Feed the Beast does not use Bukkit's way of registering items. And if Bukkit doesn't know about the item, because SignShop is a craftbukkit plugin, SignShop won't know about the item either.

Then you are not interested in resolving this issue or give support for FTB server?
I'm not accusing you for anything just want to know if we need to start looking for a different shop plugin.

Well, you can disable that feature in the config if you like, but if you want to use it, you need to enable that flag in Worldguard. if you aren't sure how to do that, i'd suggest reading through the Worldguard documentation.

Are there any errors in the console when you right click? If so, please make a support ticket. If not, have you tried right-clicking with an empty hand? If that doesn't work, and you have no errors in the console, then you might have a protection plugin preventing you from interacting with the sign.

We do not work with Maven since SignShop depends on quite a lot of plugins that do not use, or intend to use, Maven.
If we'd start using Maven now, we'd have to create a very, in the eyes of the Maven community, dirty configuration. Since we'd have to reference a lot of local JAR's.
In other words, Maven would not work for SignShop as it stands. The plugin simply depends on too many others (compile wise).
Hope that answers your question.

We had an issue of people renaming their items like a wood shovel to "Diamond Sword" and ripping people off. Even though the name was in italics and quotes, it was still an issue. That's why we add the name of the actual item after the renamed item. So we would not want to change that feature.

Posted Nov 14, 2013Can you add a feature to signshop hotel so when people right click the sign while renting they will see how long they have left. My players keep demanding, and it's been months since the last time i asked.
Please consider adding this.
Thanks.
