[INFO] StickyHelp v1.0.2 - Get help from text files [1060]

Plugin renamed and moved to http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/37597/

 

@Kane Yeah I've noticed the same thing. @marvinbek Also, typing the help command in console throws an error.

Code:

08:48:39 [WARNING] Unexpected exception while parsing console command

Oh, and, I noticed help files are case sensitive. I don't know if you'll remove that in a later update, but I got around it like this:
Step 1, command helper, get it.
Step 2, do a bit of reading to learn how to use it.
Step 3, open config file add this:

Code:

/help $page = /help to_lower($page)

Step 4, name all help.txt files lower case.
Step 5, ???
Step 6, profit.

I'm not much of a code junkie so I felt proud that I did even that simple task.

 

you should make this able to get helpfiles from the internet
just type "http://www.herpaderp.com" into the derp.txt and when you type /help derp it pulls up all the text on herpaderp.com... i saw a plugin that did something similar to this, but im pretty sure it died long ago... EDIT: if somebody finds this original plugin, i didnt mean to suggest that you steal that developers work, i just thought it died...

if you decide to do this, i will try to help you with it being a slightly-more-than-beginning plugin developer myself

 

@marvinbek any updates?

 

Nope, i'm renaming this and adding some delicious features I'll link to the new thread when i'm done though.

 

Okay. Ping me if you remember
