Buycraft prefix

    Hey,
    I've been looking for this for a couple of weeks now. If it already exsists please link me!

    What:
    I would like someone to make a plugin that hooks into the Buycraft api and makes a prefix infront of a players name displaying the amount of donated money. According to the creator of Buycraft, the amount of donated money is saved and this should be possible. I would also like this prefix to update. So if player "bobmann200" donates 5 dollar, his prefix would be &3[5]. When he donates another 5 dollars, his prefix would turn to &3[10].

    Requiredments:
    It would need to meet these requiredments:
    - Factions prefix support.
    - SimplePrefix Support.
    - A permissions node that enables the prefix in certain groups.

    Optional:
    - Custom prefix with config?
    - Hook into simpleprefix so it doesn't mess up the order of world/prefix/name/suffix?

    When:
    As long as it takes to make. But I'd prefer it soon of course :)

    Hence its buycraft related, why not write a ticket to the buycraft creator to try do this?

    I did and they just told me it was possible. They don't want to add it I think.

    Did you specifically ask them if they would add it?

    I know that people In the future will probably ask for the same thing as you.

    So.. Ask them to add it, it is after all a payment service.

    It's unlikely they will add such a thing, cause it's focused on only providing the tools that are needed to use other plugins to reward donators (through console commands).

    Well then you might need a nice plugin developer, I can imagine it being a pain In the a**

    I guess so. I would like to make it myself, but I'm still learning java.

    You could ask lmc to add a variable with the total donated amount in the package commands. Something like {donationtotal}. You could then just use the commands your prefix system uses, with the variable in it.

    I'm not sure if my prefix plugin supports that. I'll have a look.

    your perms plugin can handle custom prefixes, mostlikely PEX/bPerms/GM

    I'm using permissionsbukkit. But I guess I should change to PEX.​

    Do not change to PEX, it is proven to be a dangerous permissions plugin.

    It is one of the most used plugins right?

    It is one of the most used, but it is still terrible to your servers health.

    Does PEX support the updating of the donated amount?

    You wont be able to do that without some kind of implementation. I could work on doing this since I used a system like this before on my old servers.

    Something like a /upgrade [name] [amount] kind of thing. You just input the [amount] on the command input page of BuyCraft. Hope that helps, if it still matters to you that much I can work with it. About multi-plugin support... not so sure, I can give it a shot. It won't be this week, maybe some other developers could have a look at picking this up. I'm a bit busy working on my servers website currently :)

    ^^ forgot to mention. Using something like Variable Triggers is how I did my original one.

    I'd love such an upgrade system :) That would be perfect.

    I
    I'd prefer your first idea, but I'll give it a shot if you don't want to make it.

    I would have to agree about GroupManager being better.

    Am I the only one thinking that PEX is alot less confusing? I cant stand the was GroupManager is setup.

    It might be more easy for you, but it can potentially crash your server, or cause severe permissions-related issues.

    I have never had a issue with it. All the people I have configured it for haven had problems either. I dont think it happens that often.

    Is it really worth the risk though? Btw, I moved from Group Manager to custom coded permissions plugin which supports my TDM configuration
