Promote!
Promote!
Introduction
What: Promote! is a simple rank-up plugin that allows players to use a single command - `/rankup` - to move up in the promotional ladder defined in the configuration. Simple and lightweight, this plugin does not contain any unnecessary tweaks or features. It is easy to set up and easy to use.
Why: There are quite a handful of promotion or rank-up plugins on the Bukkit Dev, however, most of them are either filled with bugs, are out of date, or littered with features that no one wants. Promote! was designed to be as sturdy as possible; you will likely never need to update it at all. It is simple as a brick; there is simply nothing there to break.
How: In order to provide compatibility with as many permissions and economy plugins as possible, Promote! depends on Vault, a framework that works extremely well with the majority of popular plugins. You can download the latest version of Vault here.

Configuration
Promote! does not have a whole lot in terms of configuration. The default configuration and explanation can be found here.
Commands
Promote! has a staggering total of one command.
/rankup will promote the user to the higher rank in the current promotion ladder. If the player is not in the ladder, is at the top of the ladder, does not have enough money, or does not have his pants pulled all the way up, the promotion will not occur.
/rankup [ladder] will promote the user to a higher rank in the specified ladder.
/rankup reload will load the configuration from file.
Nice plugin! I tested it. Now works perfectly.
Update to 1.7.x?
In the english.yml <NAME> doesn't work.
Hey I'm having problems with Ranking up. i have rank F, D, C And B ect... They can rank up to C, Then they type /rankup it Takes the money and Ranks them up to C_rank from C_rank.
I was wondering if i am doing some thing wrong, And if you would like to see, My server is ApexPrison,com:25465 Any further instruction would be nice. =D
Thanks Lord_Pain
It seems if the user has any other group added, their rankups break, which is a huge issue for me as I have donor ranks, mod ranks, etc. Could you make it so it finds the group that is in the Promote! ladder and removes it and adds the new one, so that way they can rankup while in another group, and keep that group? I'm using PEX by the way. This would be extremely helpful. Thanks.
Love this plugin. But I've encountered a problem:
I have ranks A, B, and C (let's just call them that for simplicity) and they were set in the default ladder.
Someone in A would /rankup and if they had the money, they would be B.
Now I've got VIP ranks, VIP10, VIP 20, VIP 30 (etc)
If someone was rank A and VIP10 and they tried /rankup it gives the error 'You are not in a promotional ladder' and if they tried /rankup default it would say 'You are at the highest promotional rank' or something along those lines.
I found a quick fix was to make them VIP10 and then add them to A rather than being A and adding them to VIP10 (so that A was 'ontop' of VIP)
But how do I actually fix this?
Hi bitWolfy, thanks for your help before. Just wanted to let you know everything is still smooth on our server (1.5.2) with this plugin. Keep up the good work!
@reDIKulous2
I have the same problem. Hope the author fixes this. - Benji
On my server people can rankup once but after that it just ranks them up to the same group taking money away and everything.
Can you add something where it announces in chat that the person was promoted to <insert rank name>
@nicktehbrick
The issue with the plugin is that I am using Vault's methods to move players around the groups. Some permissions plugins support players being in several groups at the same time; therefore, I have to remove the player from his group first, then move him to the correct group.
Sorry, I really have to update the page with the new info, but it's midnight here, and I honestly do not feel like it. Here's the permissions bit of plugin.yml:
@bitWolfy
So far so good, no more internal errors. However it does seem to be moving players to the bottom of the ladder, then to where they need to be, when you do /rankup. Looks confusing but it's working how it's supposed to, not sure if that's intended.
Also, what is the new permission you added? :)
Uploading Promote! v.1.2 - it should be approved shortly.
@nicktehbrick
Um, no, I don't think there isn't one. I kind of forgot to add it? :D Will add.
Also, kind of fixed the issues you guys were having. Hopefully. Will release the updated version after a bit of testing.
Is there a permission to use /rankup? Or can you add one? :)
@bitWolfy
i have vault and mineconomy and it says an internal error also for me.
@bitWolfy
I do have vault installed, and I use GroupManager for permissions.
@nicktehbrick
What permissions plugins are you guys using? There should at least be a stack trace in the server log.
I do assume that you have Vault installed.
It says Internal error occured anyhelp?
