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.

Extending SignShop with other Plugins
- Uses Vault API, so it works with all standard economies (EssentialsEco, iConomy, BOSEconomy, and more) and permission plugins (Permissions 3, bPermissions, PEX, GroupManager, PermissionsBukkit, zPermission (and defaults to OP permissions, if you don't want to use a permission system).

- Supports dynmap to show shop locations.
- Buy and sell custom made guns and weapons using Crackshot. (P.S. Crackshot is awesome!)
- Supports alternate worlds using Multiverse.

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 :-) ).

Known Issues
Suggestions and Other Issues
Firstly, if you are having an issue, please read the "Known Issues" section above this one. If your issue is not described above, make sure your server is using the Vault plugin. It is required.
If you are still having a problem with SignShop, please feel free to browse our tickets, or open one yourself! Thanks!
We make certain development builds available for download, these often fix bugs found in our tickets. We do NOT recommend running these on a live server, as they are not fully tested. If you'd like to download our latest one anyway you can get it here.

All potions are supported using craftbukkit. Again, any items with damage values will depend on the software support we add. Check the performance of your server when the lever thing happens. That's the only time I've heard of something like that happening.

about the non-recognized items. can you possibly add support for the 'extra' potions, like sparkling, refined etc.? they are in default MC code just unused, try 373:43 or 373:47 for instance.

mal67 May 18, 2013 at 00:13 UTC - 0 likeshmm, im using a [device] sign to open/close a craftbook [gate] with redstone. but after updating to 1.5 it has started to hang open instead of closing again. its worse with 1.5.2, is there any way you can think of to fix this? its as if the lever doesnt get the signal to turn back off like 70% of the time

We do not have chest protection for a number of reasons. We support most of the major ones. Check our Extending SignShop with other Plugins section.

nostalgicbadger May 17, 2013 at 19:08 UTC - 0 likesPlayers on my server are able to open chests attached to a shop, so instead of buying an item from the shop, a player could just open the chest and steal its stock. Is there really no built-in protection against stealing items from a shop chest, or do I have something misconfigured?

Separate support would need to be added for server software that isn't craftbukkit. We have an open ticket for this. It's not as simple as just getting 351:4 as an ID. That isn't something that actually exists in code. Either way, we will be looking into grabbing item info for server software that isn't craftbukkit in the semi-near future.

No For items like Lapis, that has 351:4 as ID, it doesn't sell the Lapis but rather just the 351 ID so that is an ink sac. It does that for many other items as well, any item that has a ":" in it doesnt work.
Any help about that?
Thanks
