SilkSpawners - Harvest mob spawners with silk touch

Version v8.1.0

Thanks for MILLIONS of downloads!

A sign shop addon for buying and selling spawners can be found here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/12028/

Description

Ever wanted to move a mob spawner? With SilkSpawners, you can now pick up and move monster spawners.
If you use a pickaxe with the silktouch enchantment you will receive the spawner again.
You can control each mob spawner, allow crafting and of course mod support.

I'm happy to hear about your opinion, just leave a comment with a feature request, bug, improvement or just a personal opinion.

As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom or the button on the top)

Demonstration

Thanks @Koz4christ

Known Bugs

If sign shops are not working, you may want to try my custom sign shop addon: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/12028/
Mobs like Ghasts or Giants are too big for the spawner, this a Minecraft bug and I can't fix that
Some older Essentials versions/ports are not updated properly for 1.8. There is a maintained fork called EssentialsX you should try.
- You can find the source here: GitHub
- And the download from Jenkins here: Jenkins
If you use Gui Sign Shop and users are unable to place spawners, you need to grant them the guishop.spawner permission from Gui Sign Shop
Holographic Displays makes Slime spawners non functional

You may want to check out my status, then check out my github repo.
https://github.com/xGhOsTkiLLeRx/SilkSpawners
I ran into some issues.
Bukkit is still not doing what I want (issue on BlockPlace, mob spawner isn't updated right, keeps old mob in it)

Can you add in a way to disable certain types of extra spawners but not all of them (i.e. disable item object spawners but not say dragon ones and iron golem ones) I learned the hard way the other day that placing a Item Spawner will crash your server repeatedly until you delete the world it was in or otherwise remove the spawner from the server. But yeah to my knowledge you don't have options to disable some but not all extra type spawners.

Thanks for creating and sharing this plugin.

I have verified that SilkSpawners 2.0.2 works without problem on CraftBukkit 1.3.2-R0.1 with Windows 7 64-bit and Ubuntu Server 12.04 64-bit on Java 1.7u7 64-bit. Was also using bPermissions 2.9.23

No console errors and was able to pick up a spawner (which kept the monster type) as well as placing them.

Thanks, LHammonds

Is it normal when I click the spawner in my inv and then click outside to drop it on the ground it just disappears?

Edit: Something weird with stacking going on too. Sometimes I can't stack the same type of spawner. Also sometimes in a previous version they would disappear and occasionally stack on top of each other and I don't know if that's related or if you have fixed that yet. Something strange is going on still anyway.
