MCAU Shops

On MCAU, shops can be known for one of the many ways you earn Player Money in game to purchase items from the admin server shop and many other shops created by the servers members. “Player Money” can be seen by using the command: /balance or /bal.

MCAU also has an admin shop at /warp shop where you can sell and purchase small server items like building blocks, ingots and miscellaneous items.

Note: The shop plugin we were using is no longer functional, as such we have reverted to ChestShop which we used for many years prior to the 1.19 update. Existing player shops will need to be recreated to suit.

Creating Shop Signs

  1. Place a chest on the ground
  2. Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it)
  3. On the sign, write:

  • Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players)
  • Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell
  • Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon :

Some of the possible price combinations: “B 5:5 S”, “B 5”, “S free”

  • The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards.

Optionally you can put the actual name of the item on the forth line. You can find out the name of the item that you're holding by running /iteminfo

Resulting shop:

A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616
