All information about the buttons

Informations

Buttons allow you to customize the actions of your inventory. You have to specify the type of the button each time and configure the elements specific to the type of button. Here you find the buttons that are integrated by default in the plugin, other plugins can also add new types of buttons.

For each button you will have to specify an ItemStack, to know how to configure an itemstack go here.

TYPE

type: <button type>

The type of the button, by default the type will be NONE.

SLOT

slot: <number between 0 and inventory limit>
slot: <page>-<slot>

Position the slot on which your item will be displayed.

  • Slots start at 0.

  • You can specify the page number directly in the slot. You should do it like this: <page>-<slot>. So for example for a button on page 2 and slot 8 we have: 2-8.

  • To have multiple items on the same slot you must use the else button.

Double chest slots

To display a button on several slots you can do like this:

slots:
  - 0
  - 1
  - 2
  - 3
  - 4
  ...

You can also create slot ranges this way: <startslot>-<end slot>

slots:
  - 0-9 # From slot 0 to slot 9
  - 18
  - 17
  - 26
  - 27
  - 35
  - 36
  - 44-53 # From slot 44 to 53

page: <page numer>

Allows you to specify the page where the button will be displayed. By default the page will be number 1.

messages:
  - "&8(&6zMenu&8) &fAdd your server to the site &3Serveur Minecraft Vote"

Permission

Allows to define a permission that the player must have to display the item. You can reverse the permission by adding ! in front of the permission. Thereby the plugin will check that the player does not have the permission. You can also define a list of permissions the player must have:

permission:
  - "first.permission"
  - "!second.permission"

  • EQUALS_STRING (aliase: s=): Allows to check if the text is strictly equal to the text

DYNAMIC PAGINATION (zMenu+)

Lets you create a dynamic inventory with placeholders. You can use this to create a ranking for example. The only limit is your imagination.

In the example if below you have placeholders generates by zMenu+ as an example.

%zmenu+_pagination_size% Returns the size of your list. This value will change when loading the plugin.

%zmenu+_pagination_name_<index>% Returns text based on the index. The text is generated automatically when loading the plugin.

You must then specify the start and end of the pagination. For this you have the start and end, which works with PlaceholderAPI.

Then have 3 internal placeholders to help you get the button number that is displayed.

%index% - Returns the index of the button, starts at 0.

%current% - Returns the index of the button + 1, starts at 1.

%value% - Returns the value of the button. If your pagination does not start with 0 you must use se placeholder to retrieve the index of the button.
