    Recommended Plugins
    • With Annotate, you can have CommandSigns on practically any block with an almost unlimited amount of room for commands! They can even activate when pressing a button or a pressure plate!

    To Everyone Asking For Redstone Support (open)

    Yes, I also think redstone support would be very cool. Unfortunately, there are some major limitations on what you can do with a redstone-controlled sign. You can read about those limitations in this post, and you can read a rationale about why those limitations exist in this post. Given those two limitations, I don't think redstone support is currently a useful feature to add, especially given what Annotate can do for you. (If you disagree, please post on the issue tracker on how you would use redstone support.) In the (not too distant) future, redstone support may will be added in a separate plugin due to the different nature of redstone command signs.

    He probably means the other one which is being actively maintained.

    To be honest though, it's probably for the best to start the process to change permissions provider. Permissions 3 is now unsupported and you'll be stuck in the future when it's relegated as a relic of history. You can use PEX which provides an excellent compatibility layer for the older plug-ins that only understand Permissions 2/3 and it's got a lot of native support as well as being able to provide SuperPerms bridging.

    i dont think you understand, the new plugin doesnt even support annotate plugin and he has no plans of adding support. -.- its a total rewrite designed to work strictly and specifically for signs

    Takel

    And you're misunderstanding why I was talking only about Permissions. I understand that the other fork doesn't have the API which allows Annote to work. However, it's probably for the best if Permissions 3 is dropped from your server if that point is a sticking point in plug-ins. The sooner you get off Perms 3 the better and if you're worried about legacy plug-in support, PEX has that covered with its compatibility layer.

    Ugh, looks like this finally died. An updated version is urgently needed as the "new" CommandSigns just doesn't work the same way as it stores all it's data in text files not on the sign itself (a pre-req for Movecraft).

    i will pay someone to update this, i am in desperate need of this plugin as soon as possible! i use it on my server to issue commands on blocks for guests to use to get out of the rules and into the word they can build in =/ but at the moment they are stuck in the rules and cant get out. my rules are very long and uses a series of commands attached to buttons to get the player to their destination

    then /ann line3 /yourothercommandhere

    etc, but this doesnt work in 1.8 because theres no update

    That's really awesome, I really need this plugin for our server! :)
     
  18. hmmm...it seems that this plugin needs annotations...CS got all bunch of errors when i look at the source and that goes for annotations too...its too advance for me but its doable if i try harder(still a bit noob myself)...and it also uses perms3 by yeti. i want to recode this and make it use the latest permissions such as PEX or the PermissionsBukkit or the bPerms(or i can use superperms, so it will hooked to all latest permissions plugin...but the problem with superperms is this will not support @groups, i think). i'll update the annotations too if it really needed(i think its needed). reply to this if you like the idea...if not...then tell me whats wrong with it

    it will still be compatable with permissions 3 right? remember that i am still using this right now because pex doesnt seem to work properly at the moment for me due to some rather odd conflicts, and annotate is very much needed for the ability to create commandsigns on any block which is one of the main functionalists of my server, i am still willing to donate what i promised for this!

    I only need the commands on signs to work and add a fee on use to them (items, no iconomy coins)

    Shereis

    Hello, everyone !
    I have made a Plugin that regroup Annotation and something like CommandSign in one plugin !
    I have totally rewrited it... so don't expect having you're old configuration file working with this...

    Also you'll certainly need to update to permissionsbukkit or PEX ! Perm3 is NOT supported and won't be supported !

    I will release it this week certainly ! it looks like everything is working, I just need to adjust some little things !

    Edit: I actually named it ScriptBlock... but if you have a better idea for the name ! feel free to submit it to me ; )

    @Shereis Will this work with Groupmanager as this is my servers main way of ranking people, it also comes with essentials which makes it popular.

    Shereis

    Actually not, first I have to release it be sure there is no issues, then release two another plugins i'm working on... maybe after that... sorry for that, but having "multi-permission" plugins support is not my first priority for now !

    StefanP

    Awesome!!
    Where could I find this release?
    We really need a commandsigns plugin...
     
  27. Offline

    Shereis

    Well it's not really a Commandsign plugin ! it's, I think, better than that... because you can bind text, any command , or MANY commands !!(with, if you want, bypass permission system for the user ) to any blocks (signs, buttons, and levers includes !!)This will allowing you to write anything you want on the sign attached to the command !

    This plugin won't support economy plugins, but it will support script so, if you want a player to buy a Diamond for money with iconomy plugin just write "/sbcreate [@money grant <PLAYER> -75] [@give <PLAYER> diamond] " !
    then click on a block and voila !
    you can add another commands to a block with the "/sbadd ["commands"]"

    I will explain all of that better on the BukkitDev page !

    Actually i'm testing it. If everything is ok... I will post it on BukkitDev today or tomorrow, I think ... !

    Thats what I really need actually!

    shame it wont support permissions 3, because i cannot get pex to work, bukkit refuses to enable pex and i have had no solution to the problem so far >.>

    Shereis

    Permission 3 is no longer updated and future will certainly not support it... Have you tried permissionBukkit ? ( not the one include in bukkit, but this one : http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/permbukkit/ )
    if you add the plugin SuperPermsBridge, most of perm3 plugins will be supported by this one !

    Anyway, I will try to help you get PEX work, after I released ScripBlock ...

    that will bridge my perm3 with permissions bukkit? do i have to edit perm3 in any way? which was why i wanted pex, if you can solve my pex issue then i would be very greatful
