SignEdit
Description
This plugin allows you to edit signs while they are still on block/wall they were placed on.
Features
- Logging.. Every edit made to a sign is logged in either console or a separate log file.
- Colours! See the Colours With SignEdit page
- As an added bonus, SignEdit will parse colours when you place a sign.
- SignEdit throws a SignChangeEvent with every edit. This means that if a player is trying to make a sign that they don't have permission to create, they can't! This is compatible with almost every major plugin that uses signs. It also works with HawkEye, so you can see who changed what!

Thanks to VariationVault for featuring SignEdit in a tutorial video on YouTube:
Works in 1.8!
You can put more than 15 characters on signs now, see the ticket :/
@Cyprias
Ok, thanks. I will have to try that.
@Cyprias
How about firing SignChangeEvent?
@JoePCool14
The difficulty with that is figuring out who owns the sign. We didn't want to add dependances to other sign/block protection plugins to figure out ownership. Instead we added the fireBlockBreak setting which causes SignEdit to spoof a block break event on the sign that's about to be edited, if no other plugins cancels the event we assume the player has permission to edit that sign and proceed with the line change.
Try enabling fireBlockBreak and locking the sign with LWC, WorldGuard or some other protection plugin. If your protection plugin normally prevents a player from breaking the sign SignEdit should be prevented from editing the sign as well.
Hello there! I have a very good suggestion for you! Its a big one, but maybe you can do it...
Can you make it so that players can only edit their own signs? This would be really good as right now players could just go edit all my spawn signs. A GUI would also be epic. Cheers! :)
haha! now, I can use chinese in sever!!!
There is some bug, regular players without any perms to edit can still use colored signs and create signs with colored text... I know that because I just unloaded the plugin, made a player test and it was signedit :/
Can u add a Screen so when you click to edit the sign, a sign writing menu appears. It would make this plugin 1,000,000,000 times better! :P I love this plugin
Nice Plugin!
I don't like op, So I am in my own group that I made. After adding all of the permissions to my admin group, I can't edit signs. It always says cannot paste, cannot edit etc. Please fix this permission bug.
@shurtcut
That is probably because the sign is used by essentials, so essentials is blocking the sign from being changed.
I can't edit shop signs, it tell me ''Could not edit sign'' Note* I use essentials sign shop
Is there a way you can allow changing of ChestShop signs through the config files or something?
You might want to edit the plugin description and remove the 1st line which is incorrect and unnecessary since we can see the file listing.
"Current Version: 3.3.5"

Minecraft Client limitation, nothing can be done about it. If signedit would set the lines longer, the client would crash.
could you upload new version plugin source on github?
Use This Plugin So Much!

It is possible to make the sign 15 letters with color because the signs are getting a bit small when you want multiple colors on 1 line.
For Example: &1 &4Hi, &f<PLAYER>
Something like that. it is one letter too long.
----------------I'd like to know this as well, my IGN is PoseidonsMinion. I cannot apply colours/effects to my name as it's 15 characters long by itself. This is why I'd like to have extra characters/not have the 15 character limit.
[SignEdit] [BLOCKED] Another plugin blocked the BlockPlace check.
version: 3.3.8 for CB 1.7.2-R0.3 Mar 20, 2014
how to fix it ?
