Solved getStringList().add() is just returning true

plugin.getConfig().set("test", plugin.getConfig().getStringList("test").add("John"));

Just returns true and not John..

 

well I don't use configs much but... why are you using net.minecraft.server for material instead of the regular bukkit one? what i'm saying is replace
import net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R1.Material;
with import org.bukkit.Material; this could be your problem but i don't think so...

 

It does say that add() is a boolean.. so what would I use if it isn't add()?

 

I don't understand what you are trying to accomplish. If you are trying to add "John" to a list in the config...

Code:

FileConfiguration config = plugin.getConfig();
String[] list = config.getStringList("test");
list.add("John")
config.set("test", list);

 

yea thanks realised I was using the wrong thing.
