SimplePromoter

PermissionsEx promotions made easy
by Stealth2800

GitHub | Tickets

Version: 2.0.4 (awaiting approval)
Tested on Bukkit: 1.5.2, 1.6.1, 1.6.4
Originally written for the server: Orbis Astorea

Description

An easy alternative to promoting players with PermissionsEx that also broadcasts the change, easily letting the person know they were promoted.

This is also my first plugin! I'm working hard to improve it and would appreciate any feedback and/or constructive criticism on what I can do to make it better.

Features

Single command for promoting players
Ability to add player to multiple groups
Easy permission control to limit what groups a person can promote/demote to
Simple command to check what group(s) a player is a part of
Plays a sound when a player is promoted (to that player only)

Commands & Permissions

Command	Info	Permission
/simplepromoter version	Shows plugin version	none
/simplepromoter help	Shows help	simplepromoter.help
/simplepromoter reload	Reloads plugin config files	simplepromoter.reload
/setrank <player> <rank> [rank] ... yes/no	Set a player to a rank (or multiple). Yes/no determines if message is broadcasted	simplepromoter.setrank
/checkrank <player>	Show what group(s) a player is in	simplepromoter.checkrank
--	Give permission to rank TO a certain group	simplepromoter.group.<groupname>
--	Give permission to rank FROM a certain group	simplepromoter.from.<groupname>

By default, I'd suggest giving simplepromoter.from.* and simplepromoter.group.* to groups that are allowed to use this plugin. If you don't want them to promote to a group, you can do:
- -simplepromoter.group.admin
- simplepromoter.group.*
in your config file. You can do the same thing for prohibiting them from promoting from a group.
- -simplepromoter.from.admin
- simplepromoter.from.*

Dependencies

PermissionsEx (Required)
StBukkitLib (Required)

Upcoming Features

Config option to change/disable promotion sound
Ability to restrict what groups a user can promote FROM.
- (i.e. - Limit them so they can't promote a user in the administrator group)
Support for other permission plugins (GroupManager, bPermissions, others on request.)

No, only PEX. I would also advise against using this plugin as it is very out of date and I will not be updating it any further.

...What? /setrank <player> <group> where group name(s) are the rank names that are defined in the PermissionsEx permissions.yml file. You need to give the node
- -setrank.group.admin
in order to prevent promoting to the 'admin' group. THAT EXTRA - IN FRONT OF SETRANK IS IMPORTANT, that takes away the permission node.

This would allow admins to promote to any group except the 'mod' or 'admin' groups.
- simplepromoter.setrank
- -simplepromoter.group.mod
- -simplepromoter.group.admin
- simplepromoter.group.*

How could I set it up so Admins can promote Members to Trusted but admins can't promote players to mod, admin, or above?

Currently there is no way to allow players to only promote themselves. I could implement a /selfrank command or something similar though.

Hey, I want my Guests to promote themselves to the group "Member" and tried a lot of stuff with giving them or removing Permissions. They can Promote themselves from Guest to Member, but they can also change any other Player to the Rank Member as long as they are only Guests. An Example: New Players can demote Admins/Mods to normal Members but no other Group. Greetings, WerVam

Here are my Permissions: - simplepromoter.setrank - -simplepromoter.group.mod - simplepromoter.group.member - -simplepromoter.from.mod - simplepromoter.from.default - -simplepromoter.group.admin - -simplepromoter.from.admin - -simplepromoter.from.*

No. It only gives permission depending on what permissions you give the group. simplepromoter.group.admin will only give access to the admin group for example.

Does it only allow promoting below/to the rank of the promoter? Like, say, I had a guild if Thieves, and I wanted to give the top two ranks, "King of thieves" and "Master thief" the ability to promote along the group ladder "Thieves". I would not want the Master Thief to be able to make a novice thief a Master thief, nor would I want the Master Thief to be able to promote someone to the rank of King of Thieves.

The plugin actually checks if the player has ever joined the server before. I removed that feature due to it being very unreliable and not working half the time. I'll be submitting an updated version of the plugin to BukkitDev very soon.

Plugin is starting up great, but it sometimes doesn't see when a player is online or not therefore being unable to promote. This happened a few times. Having the player relog fixes it though.

Besides that, everything is working great. Looking forward to the restriction on groups feature :P

No, it's fine. I love suggestions. XD

A sound would most definitely be awesome, I'll attempt to implement it. :)

Sounds good. :) Any thoughts on adding the level_up sound when promoting someone? Might be a nice touch.

Sorry if I'm suggesting too much, but I really like this plugin :P

I'm currently in the process of reprogramming SimplePromoter entirely.
