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 |

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!

How do I get money?
You can earn money by selling items to an admin shop. If you mean a default balance on join then you will have to take a look at your economy plugin config.
Hey!
So the plugin mostly works, but when attempting to sell, half of the time it wont let you. It doesnt say anything you just can't sell. If you keep hitting the sign, eventually it'll let you sell for a bit then it stops again with no words? This is only an issue with the admin shop ^-^
Make sure there are no errors in the log. There is also a config option to set the cooldown for shop sign interactions. (Other plugins like anti-cheats might limit that too)
Is there any way for myself, an OP, to buy or sell to a normal player shop? All I can do is open their chests which isn't what I need. Nor do any permissions can turn this off for OPs.
That's what the /csaccess command is for. It temporarily disables the block that players with shop-access permission can't trade at shops. If you want to disable that permanently then there is a config option (ignore_access_perms) as well.
i use this plugin, but. player with rank default can't make a shop, but they've been given access.
The default permissions should allow shop creation and usage. If you are using some permission plugin then you are going to have to check that plugin's verbose mode to see which permissions are missing.
Where is Turkish Translate ? I made it.
Ideally that would be managed via our localization page but I'm unsure how to add new languages there tbh.. You could just PR it on GitHub or link it here and I'll include it :)
Is it possible to give/take money from my account balance when somebody buys/sells using an admin shop?
You can specify the server economy account in the config to do that.
In reply to Phoenix616:
# The name of the economy account which Admin Shops should use and to which all taxes will go
SERVER_ECONOMY_ACCOUNT: "My name"
# The uuid of the economy account for the Admin Shop. Useful for fake accounts as normally only accounts of players work
SERVER_ECONOMY_ACCOUNT_UUID: My UUID
I changed these 2 lines to my account info, but it didn't work. I'm using EssentialsX if that helps.
Please open an issue then and provide all the requested information. (Especially your full config and log file)
Hi...I don´`´``t know why but my configs are not working...I changed things like the name of the admin shop and the cost of creating a new shop but it just does not work...can anybody help me?
Please open an issue and provide all the information requested by the template.
I create shop with this plugin. In chat write shop successfully created, but I don't buy or sell items.
I have a plugin vault. What can I do?
Make sure there are no errors in your log file and that you are testing with normal user permissions (shop owners and people with access permissions will not be able to trade with shops that they have access to by default. Try the /csaccess command or the ignore_access_perms config option)
Is there any config I have to do to make ChestShop interact with my essentials economy? I have vault installed but whenever I use a shop, it says "You bought ___ for $____" but it doesn't add nor deplete my balance.
No, you don't need to set anything up, simply install ChestShop, EssentialsX and Vault and it should hook into that (it should say so in the startup log of ChestShop). Make sure there are no other errors and that you are using the correct plugin versions for your server version.
