SilkSpawners
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)

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.
- 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
- UltraCosmetics, causes some spawners to non function: https://github.com/iSach/UltraCosmetics/issues/259

hoping for a 1.3 update!
It works on 1.3?
Any idea what is causing this?
Ahem... if the monster spawner is in region protect or faction claim you can get duplicate EXP because the monster spawner not destroyed.
When i place the spawner, it spawns pigs! How do i fix it?
@mushroomhostage
awesome plugin, but i was wondering if you could add some sort of a configuration for crafting the spawner, as i want it to be a commitment to craft a spawner, so something like diamonds, iron bars seems to easy as we have mobcatcher, anyway nice plugin
Nice plugin, kids love it. But of course the question im able to craft spawners, great but it does not retain the sheeps colour, ive got a bunch of coloured sheep. and was wondering if a spawner could be made to pop out the yellow sheep whose egg is used. or is this an engine limitation.
Just started playing with spawners when i foun the pig pen empy, damn things seem to have despawned sigh, i also noticed the colored sheep farm shrinking im sure :(
thanks
I've got a long list of same error occurring since 2.0.1 on CB 1.2.5-R4.0: the Plugin is broken, at least with our setup. I'd rather keep all the knowledge private between you & me ...
@TheAleG
What? Sorry but I don't see how this would fix my issue....
@erdrickk
o get the same error with plugins simple create a new clean folder and put, only mod, plugins and maps, and configuration files you change like permissions or mod id,
this bug happens when (i belive) some index of the bukkit make interference with new plugins
getting this error....
Could you add a feature to configure the maximum amount of spawners one person can pickup with this plugin. At the moment I have people with like over 50 spawners. Its annoying as they use them for xp farms, and cause a crap load of lag for the server..
Get back to me, thanks.
So you also make Bukkit plugins, I thought you were to busy with porting mods :p Good job! Going to use this a lot!
i put a spawner down its the right type then i break to pick up and it turns into a fireball tpye spawner. item id is 52:12
???
They are saying that when the land is protected with GriefPrevention and they try to mine a spawner it will stay put but they get the spawner anyway.
@deleted_6947223
Done :)
Can you update the source on GitHub? :D
Is there anyway to have "charges" added to the spawner. So that when a player places the spawner box it doesn't do anything until the player adds "charges". maybe the player has to add spawner eggs of that type to the spawner box. However, each egg gives the spawner block 1 charge not sets an unlimited source of them.
@mushroomhostage
Possible to add permissions per mob type?
@mushroomhostage I used the source code to edit the recipe, but i'll test it anyways
Edit: I tested it using the default SilkSpawners.jar and it works fine! ;D
However, I keep using my edited one...
