Solved Aliases? Basic setup help.

I am currently operating a private server which will soon go public. I have recently added a few new plugins to accomodate for this change. I have had essentials for a good bit so most of the essentials permissions are setup how I like them. I added jcommands today to come to realize that many of the commands are now being by this plugin (which no one has permissions for, currently everyone has to type /ehome or /ehelp ect.

Is there a way to make it so for a few permissions say /home /afk /back /boom /spawn /home /sethome /delhome /god /freeze /tp /invisble (just a few to name the least, I dont want to delete Jcommands as it has a few EPIC commands such as /put /admins /moderators there are more but shouldn't have to explain my reasons. I tried to find the help for this and all I could find was:

command-block-overrides: []
aliases:
  icanhasbukkit:
  - version $1-

Basic Code I found that does not seem to work whats wrong with the format? Do not get an error in startup it just doesnt set the aliases correctly. Any Ideas?

Code:

command-block-overrides: []
aliases:
  icanhavehelp:
  - help
  version:
  - ehelp
  icanhaveafk:
  - "afk"
  version:
  - "eafk"

If someone could help me out with one or 2 of the alaises for this it would be tremendous!
Most important ones to me right now are /afk /home /spawn /warp

 

I'd remove the quotes (you'd rather use single quotes in YAML anyways), but the format is correct.

Code:

aliases:
  afk:
  - eafk
  warp:
  - ewarp
# ...

you may also try to put e.g. essentials:warp or essentials:home instead of ewarp and ehome.

 

So this will make the command afk run eafk? or this will make eafk run afk?

Just a matter of formating but this one does not make sense to me. Why is there not a plugin for this?

 

Code:

aliases:
  what-you-type:
  - what-it-does
  the-alias:
  - the-actual-command

It's defined as a list to allow the specification of multiple commands connected to an alias, so you can have macros.

Code:

aliases:
  shutdown:
  - save-all
  - kickall
  - stop

In my opinion the alias system does what it promises. However if you need more customization (beyond remapping command names) you may want to use e.g. CommandHelper (which allows scripting!)

 

Sweet!! Thanks!! Ok I am starting to understand this should get me to where I need to be to setup future ones. Only other question because jcommands actually has /afk /jc_afk and essentials has /eafk or /essentials:afk isnt there fudamentally an arguement between the 2 plugins?

For example: If I remove jcommands from my plugin and type /afk (part of my essentials will god mode you, freeze you, and only allow unafk via typing the commands. When jcommands is in the plugins /afk results in you do not have permissions (because it is defaulting to jcommands). If an op runs this it will afk the player but will not give them the extra features I had setup via essentials.

Sample Codes my ideas to remove this:
#1

Code:

aliases:
  afk:
  - essentials:afk
  jafk:
  - jc_afk
  jafk:
  - []

#2

Code:

aliases:
  away:
  - essentials:afk
  afk:
  - []

Code 1: Basically I want to keep the command as afk at all costs. This code doesnt seem to function how I want. I want /afk to run only essentials but /afk defaults to jcommands. How to avoid this?

Code 2: Technically works but requires me to rename my commands any time there is arguement. With my current plugins this would be like 100. Any ideas or tips would be awesome!

Update Here is a sample of my aliases: Solution seems to be code 2 from above post.

If Anyone knows the proper way to do this ie code 1 explained in the previous post. Unfortunantly I was not able to find a way to avoid the overides without just renaming the commands that have interferances.
