Professions is a plugin that allows users to select there own groups, specifically the PEX permission groups. Before, this plugin is named Roles(orig. thread here) by AnjoCaido himself. Now, from Roles, it is renamed to Professions, because: one, the code itself is re-created from scratch, only yaml configs are a bit untouched . two, this project is still far from done. By the help of people, mostly by giving ideas, this project will climb its way up to the top. last, not the least, even though I'm still a beginner at java programming and has no knowledge of other programming languages other than java, i will devoting myself to this project until the end. Hope you all Like this.

            limit: 1
            time: 192
            join-cost: 200.0
            leave-cost: 600.0
        job:
            limit: 1
            time: 48

            leave-cost: 300.0
        subjob:
            limit: 2
            time: 12
            join-cost: 50.0
            leave-cost: 150.0
        skill:
            limit: 4
            time: 3

    default-time: 0
    default-joincost: 0.0
    default-leavecost: 0.0
    enable-iConomy: true

As you can see, i renamed config.yml to settings.yml, cause it sounds more appropriate. And i omitted the main-category and the default-group as i do not think we need that anymore. For some who does not know the stuffs in this yaml, here are some few explanation:
(taken from AnjoCaido's Roles)

• world is the world name. This plugin respects PEX mirroring, so the name of the world must be the the same of the real world which you have data on PermissionsEx.
• faction,job,subjob,skill are the categories that you use on group specification. You can create as many as you want like that.(use always lower case, please)
• limit is the quantity of roles of that category each user can join in. subjob is 2, so everyuser can join in two subjobsrole.
• time is the amount of time, in hours, a player need to wait before leaving a group that he joined of such category. The usual is the bigger the role, the bigger the time. No need to explain that.
• join-cost is the amount of money that will be subtracted to your holdings(the money in your hand, not you bank accounts money) every group join.
• leave-cost is the amount of money that will be subtracted to your holdings(the money in your hand, not you bank accounts money) every group leave.
• settings - this here is for settings.yml manipulation purposes only. This defaults will be created when u use the command addProfession.
• default-limit look at limit above.
• default-time look at time above.
• default-joincost look at join-cost above.
• default-leavecost look at leave-cost above
• enable-iConomy enables or disables iConomy support

and for the GROUPS
we can find the groups in the permissions.yml of PermissionEx folder in plugins/
heres an example:

in these permissions.yml we need to put a special node for each groups or for the groups where you want to have Professions.

these nodes GO into the OPTIONS node for every group you want to set as a Profession:
profession: (String datatype) - in here goes your professions category like faction, subjob, job and skill.
profession-requirement: (String datatype) - this node is a special one. This means to join this group you will need to have this groups also, aka requirement. And because PEX has not added multiple OPTIONS sub-datas, we will need to use the ','(or) and '&'(and) tokens. Let me give you an example:

Code:

groups:
    trainee:
        options:
            profession: subjob
            profession-requirement: BlackList&General,GlobalRisk&Commander

this means that YOU can JOIN trainee group if you are in "BlackList AND General groups" OR if you are in "GlobalRisk AND Commander groups". GOT IT? if not...just post your problem.
