What is Prison?
Prison is a Minecraft plugin that adds all the features necessary for prison servers. Plugins for prison servers exist already, but many of them are poorly maintained, and the solid ones are paid resources. Prison eliminates the paywall and the updating hassle, and puts a one-stop solution in their place.
What can it do?
Prison has two main components - called modules - that are built-in: mines and ranks.
Mines
- Create mines for players to collect materials.
- Have mines automatically reset after a certain amount of time.
- Interactively edit the composition of your mines.
- Teleport your players to safety during a mine reset, so they don't suffocate.
Ranks
- Create ranks for users to buy.
- Use multiple rank ladders. For example, you could have a prestige ladder, or a donor ladder, etc.
- Run commands when users rank up, to give them access to new permissions or set off fireworks in their place.
- Show rank tags in chat with the help of a chat formatting plugin, such as EssentialsX-Chat.
If you have suggestions for features that you'd like to see, you should create a feature request at our issue tracker and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Why should I switch to Prison?
If hassle-free updates and zero payments is not enough for you to consider switching to Prison, it doesn't stop there.
- Prison is modular. If you don't want to use a certain feature on your server, you can disable it in just a few keystrokes.
- Prison is completely, 100% open source. This means that your developers can make changes to the plugin to customize your server's experience, if you so desire.
- Prison is and always will be free. While we do ask for donations, all of our code, resources, and binaries are provided free of charge to the Minecraft community.
- New releases are heavily bug-tested. We test every single aspect of every new release of Prison before releasing it to the community. If a release doesn't pass our rigorous update checklist, it is iterated upon until it does. What does this mean for you? Solid updates with minimal bugs for your server.
- Prison is always expanding. We are always looking for ways to expand Prison with features that make your server run more smoothly. Additionally, we are always looking for contributions from the community, be it code contributions, feature requests, bug reports, translations, or documentation.

Ok, thanks.
@TheLastDogMiner
This has been an issue for a lot of people, and I don't have enough information to be able to reproduce, isolate, and fix the issue. We're working on it though!
@Cooperman8888
Yes
I am running GroupManager and I gave each of the groups (a-z) essenetials.warps.(warp name) When someone does /rankup, does it automatically do /manuadd (username) (group)?
"And when a plugin breaks, it's a hassle to find out what went wrong?" yeah about that... whenever I have to restart my server in a hurry /stop and all that, it messes up the mines, saying "[12:10:54 INFO]: [Prison] Did not reset mine D_Mine because the world it is in c
ould not be found." please tell me how to fix this. PS I run the server off of my pc so I have full access to the plugin files if u need me to change anything

Automagically is a word, here's the definition ;)
Cool automagically, reading it seems like a typo, but if you read carefully, you will be able to notice the joke

@Ale1612
Unfortunately the spawn feature does not seem to be working for many, if not all people. I'm unable to find a fix without breaking all mines, but I'm working on it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hello. I'm creating a prison server and I'm using this plugin. When the mines resets, i spawn outside of the mine. P.S.I've setted the spawnpoint of the mines
@TheStripeOfRed
Hi there. Prison 3 was removed when i lost ownership of the plugin. Prison 3 is NOT, and never was, ready for use and i have no idea why the Prison 3 API is still included in some projects.
Umm... I need some help here... Right here it says that prison "3" can use FeatherBoard Placeholders: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/mvdw-placeholders/#prison-3
First: Where is prison 3? Second: How do I implement the current player's rank on the board?
Meanwhile.....This Version just keeps on working like it should! True sign of a great coder!
@MCTylerPVP
I recently regained motivation to work on it. The code lives here.
