    Hi there, i'm currently developing a private plugin for my own small server where by typing "/verse" it displays 3 messages back to the player of their info. Showing their Name + ServerName, The amount of players on the server, And their Group (from PEX)

    Though I can't seem to grasp the error I keep getting on the player.getGroupName(Player) it comes back with hover over error: "The method getGroupName(PermissionUser) is undefined for type Player"

    Can anyone help solve this? Thanks!

    NOTE: Before someone asks I do have PEX api build path as an external jar

    there is no way to get a player's group without hooking into the permissions plugin (use Vault for this)

    So would I add Vault as an external jar to the Build Path?

    yes, then use the example code from Vault to get the Permission object (making sure you import the vault one and not the bukkit one), then there should be something in that to get the player's group

    I've added in Vault but now can't seem to find/add the Permission object for it to work.

    Can someone help me solve this?

    Do the stuff it says here down in the "Linking Vault" section. Just do the bits that pertain to permissions, you can ignore the chat and economy bits.

    - Don't use the Minecraft logger
    - Player extends OfflinePlayer, so you could use that as the parameter
    - Since when does Player have the method getPlayerGroup()? Use the static methods in the Vault clasd

    RyanDev It's partially Java. With 'Player' and 'OfflinePlayer' I meant the classes. You can use your 'player' variable as the OfflinePlayer parameter

    I understand what you are saying but how would I use this to make it work?

    Sorry I'm quite nooby at java my appologies. I'm only just on the edge of understanding what you're suggesting.

    Could you show me how I could solve this? thanks :)
