Adding something to config file

Hi guys, I was wondering how to get something added onto a config file when the player hasn't joined the server before, my code doesn't seem to be working and I don't really know why :/

if (p.hasPlayedBefore() == false) {

add a path into the config file?

}

 

You'll want to use: config.set("Path.To.Variable", myObject);

 

@ColonelHedgehog
I've tried that, but it doesn't work :/

@ColonelHedgehog
This is the code I have currently

plugin.getConfig().set("Users." + p.getName(), 0);

 

@AppleMC What doesn't work about it? Have you used the #saveConfig() method?

 

@nverdier
Yes I have saveConfig() in there.

 

@AppleMC Please post the entire code.

 

public void onPlayerJoin(final PlayerJoinEvent e) {

Player p = e.getPlayer();

if (p.hasPlayedBefore() == false) {

plugin.getConfig().set("Users." + p.getName() + ".Rep", 0);
plugin.saveConfig();

}

}

}

 

@AppleMC It probably doesn't work, because you played on the server before. Try checking if they are in the config instead

 

@SuchSwegMuchWow
No I remade the server to ensure that I haven't played it before, how would I check if they were in the config or not? :/

 

@AppleMC

Code:

if(getConfig().contains(player.getName){
//There in the config
}
else{
//Add them to config
}

 

@SuchSwegMuchWow Thanks ill be tryin that out
