ChestShop (iConomyChestShop)
Acrobot released his first Android game, would you mind giving it a go?
ChestShop
A simple, yet very powerful system for making physical shops using signs and chests.
It's never been that easy to create shops! With features like shop protection and anti-lag protection, you won't have to worry about your server's economy anymore!
"Just works"! ChestShop supports almost all economy plugins by using Vault!
(Versions above 3.9.2 also support economy plugins using the Reserve API)
Some known compatible and incompatible economy plugins.
Please check if there are newer development builds before reporting issues!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the file's changelog!
The plugin by default submits anonymous stats about your server (player count, plugin/server version and type) to a public statistics websites (mcstats.org and bstats.org) in order to provide the developers with usage information. If you wish to opt out, you can do so in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and bstats/config.yml files. It also features an auto-update feature, which can be turned off in the config.

How to create a shop
Player shop
Place a chest on the ground | |
Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it) | |
On the sign, write: | |
Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players) | |
Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell | |
Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon (:) |
Some of the possible price combinations: "B 5:5 S", "B 5", "S free" |
The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards. Optionally you can put the actual name on it. You can find out the name of the item you're holding by doing /iteminfo |
|
Resulting Shop | |
A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616 |

Admin Shop - shop with unlimited items
Firstly, you've got to be sure that you've the ChestShop.admin permission or that you are an OP. To make an Admin Shop, simply put "Admin Shop" (configurable in config.yml) on the first line of the sign when creating the shop. Admin Shops do not require a chest!

A shout-out to Acrobot's friend:
We believe that the music he makes is really stunning - you can decide it for yourself!
If you have an issue then please open a ticket on GitHub or post on SpigotMC.org for faster replies to questions!
Is it possible to pay with diamonds at shops?
Only if you use an economy plugin which uses items as currency e.g. Gringotts.
would be really cool if you guys can add the option to split profit, like 1 player gets 50% of a chest shop and 50% the other player every time someone buys a product of a chest shop
There is already a ticket/issue open about multi-owner shops. If you have ideas how to properly implement that with the limitation of sign space feel free to post it there.
im just wondering if the plugin runs off default Minecraft things or does it need other economy plugins to run
As stated at the start of the description it needs Vault and a Vault-compatible economy plugin.
hello, I would like to know if you can change the name of the store item in the / iteminfo command. I wish I could put some items in the store with customizable names
Yes, the latest dev builds have an inbuilt alias system where you can define different names via a config file.
In reply to Phoenix616:
how do I do it?
You define them in the alias.yml, it has examples on how to do that.
Permissions setup for 1.16.5 because I can't find one.
In reply to thisgameisryan:
What do you mean ?
Is it possible to adjust the chestshop on barrels and shulkers too?
Sure, there is a config entry where all possible storage container types can be defined.
Ho installato il plugin ma appena entro nel server mi mette il segno normale nelle foto ma ci sono tutti i comandi del plugin
I'm sorry but I don't understand what exactly your issue is.
When combined with the Trust System (on the ltt.gg server), I cannot allow others to access the shop, only me. I am on 1.16.5
There is an option to disable the internal protection if an external plugin protects a shop. But ChestShop or plugins need to add support for them, if you aren't a dev then please open a ticket on GitHub with some info about the plugin.
Hello the shop created succssefully but no one can buy some stuff i am on 1.16.5
What error do you get? If there are none then it is possible that the players can't interact with signs (e.g. by using adventure mode, building in spawn protection or other region protections like plots) or are ignored by your config options due to their permissions/gamemode. (Please test the latest development builds too)
