[GEN/SEC/ECON/TP/ADMN] Essentials - A collection of useful commands

Genious plugin!

 

try it like [Free] with a capital? I dunno, I hope this works
Nodus me too

 

Because you're either using an old version of Essentials, or you did not delete your config and let it regenerate a new one when you last updated. Back up your current config, delete it, and restart the server, then migrate your old settings into the new config.yml file. Then run /essentials reload.

 

I really can't find a way to view a list of available /homes? Is this possible? I'd really like to have the option to view all set /homes by all players, as an Admin and for players to have an option to view their personal /homes.

I've heard you can view your own homes by doing '/home <invalid name>' or '/home' but both of those only send me to my last set home/bed? Help?

 

Typo in the config for 2.8.2: # Set true to disable useing for those people
Should be "using". Just FYI

 

My name is on user. I've chose witch plugins I wanted to be able to use. Why does it still say "You don't have permission to use this command"?

 

Hi
I want to install Essential on My minecraft server but it doesn´t work because I have allways the latest CraftBukkit Build so pls can you Update the Plugin for the latest Build ?
Thx

Gobider

 

This is probably asked before but how can I disable the no enchantment fount so I can spawn items with damage?

 

Hmmm. It could be that your config is a older version. Delete it Reload your server.

 

Excellent mod, and excellent work.

I have a query regarding 2.8.2 though:

Why are special characters now removed from nicknames?

On my server, we have a nickname system whereby mods and admins are symbolised with a coloured * before their name, followed by their name in a specific colour. We use the nick system to ensure the colour is set in the tab list menu.

However, since 2.8.2 I now get the error: "Error: Nicknames must be alphanumeric". This change has, in one foul swoop, destroyed my nick and ranking system. At the moment, I'm using the work-around of manually adding the *'s and colours in each players user data file, but this is inconvenient and means only I can change mod/admin names.

What's the reason for not being able to use special characters in /nick now? And if these special characters wont be reinstated any time soon, I hope the developers will leave admins to be able to the edit userdata as a workaround.

 

Still waiting for answer

 

hey can someone help me. i can't spawn items with the mod toomanyitems on my server with essentials

anyone know whats causing this?

 

been having trouble getting economy to work.. and all signs arent working.. even doing &2 wont work to change colors.. warps, kits, ect. signs all not working.. same problem on another server my friend owns.

 

Hi Lauris. Before writing out your sign, type /enchant and you'll find a list of enchantments that essentials recognises. In this list you'll also find abbreviated versions of the longer enchantments that don't fit on signs due to length.

This list should solve your problems .

As others have mentioned, ensure you add the new essentials sign controls to your essentials config file, then remove the #'s before all the types of signs which you'd like your members to be able to use.

See previous posts for the new essentials sign controls section.

Hmm, I seem to be having this new problem after updating. You see i used to be able to display signs on the walls saying [Buy] 64 (id) $. Now it doesn't work, maybe a compatibility issue with chest shop or other plugins? I've tested this on my Dedicated, my VPS, and my localhost so i know it's not a compatibility issue..

Please get back to me!

 

Thank you very much (hug)

 

Hey, I'm trying to run Essentials with Chest Shop, but I keep getting
"[EssentialsProtection] protection owner: 01banshee"
I was told to disable Essentials signs, how do I do that?

 

Can't find short versions of these enchants;
blastprotection
baneofarthropods
blockslootbonus
arthropodsdamage
aquaaffinity
explosionsprotection
undeaddamage

 

Please add per world permission nodes for tp commands, thanks

 

Maybe add MySQL compatiblity to store the player information, or only use it when it is called upon? Essentials keeps a tremendous amount of files open, eventually leading to my server crashing as it is a LOT of live-time files to have open.

 

I am looking for a way to make it so players can't PvP inside my protected spawn area, is this possible with essentials?

 

Use the essentials.protect.pvp permissions node and put set your pvp in the main config.yml file to true. If you have world guard it will be easier to set up with regions and flags.

 

I have world guard, Thanks It all works great!

 

Hi!
I've got a problem.
When i sleep on bed - not saving my "spawn" and when I died, I'm on my default spawn.

 

Okay everybody calm down about the sign problems. Its not a plugin conflicting or anything. its in the config By Server/Plugins/Essentials. To Enable Signs Like [Buy],[Sell] and all those Shenamigans Go to your Config and locate this section

Code:

# Essentials Sign Control
# See http://ess.khhq.net/wiki/Sign_Tutorial for instructions on how to use these.
# To enable signs, remove # symbol. To disable all signs, comment/remove each sign.
# We recommend not enabling chest protection signs if you don't intend to use them, (or are using LWC/Lockette).
 
enabledSigns:
  #- balance
  #- buy
  #- sell
  #- trade
  #- free
  #- disposal
  #- warp
  #- kit
  #- mail
  #- enchant
  #- gamemode
  #- heal
  #- spawnmob
  #- time
  #- weather
  #- protection

See Those Hash Tag [#] Remove them Into Like These

So it Saying that the only remove hash tag are the only thing that will work. Hope it Helps ;]

remove Essentials Protect ?/ and find another protection plugin?

 

Got a /setspawn question for ya...

When I used the command I got this message...

Spawn location set for group default.

I assume that has to do with what's here in spawn.yml in the Essentials folder (NM the line numbering, it's added by the vi editor).

Code:

  1 spawns:
  2  default:
  3    world: EoJMP
  4    x: 3773.28125
  5    y: 90.0
  6    z: -1205.21875
  7    yaw: 321.58063
  8    pitch: 50.400005

Ok, so here's the actual question... I use Dynmap and it shows the spawn location as the one originally used by the world when I first created my server. Well, is there more that one setable spawn option ? I ask because the "spawn" location on Dynmap is still showing as the one originally created, I would have expected it to move to where I just used /setspawn and got the set for group default message.

Best I can figure GroupManager has multiple set spawn options but I'd like to have just the one main spawn sicne you only need spawn when you first log in to the game and users would be added to groups after they join, not be grouped before join and get a "special spawn" for that group since to me that's something that wouldn't even make a lot of sense.

On the note of GroupManager, I noticed that the nether & the_end folders for my world have their own groups and users.yml files, shouldn't that info be inherited from the main "regular" world files since one, or at least me, wouldn't expect group / user info to change when relocating from the main world to either the nether or end.

Edit: PS, any idea on this ?

 

Thank you I will do this and let you know if it works.

Well the new file is there but the mods cant use heal,compass, or god. Here is my perm nodes (I am using world guard and world edit) if that gives any help.

Hola, como puedo cambiar de idioma essentials, no paro de intentarlo pero no puedo, quiero cambiarlo al español. gracias

 

En el archivo config.yml busca donde pone locale, y lo dejas así:
locale: es_ES
