Whenever I change the name of the groups in my Autorank advancedconfig.yml and do /ar reload on the server it works fine. As soon as I restart the server and I then try a /ar command of any sort it comes up with this error "Autorank is disabled. Check your server.log!"

I removed Stats as an act of troublshooting so I'm aware there are some errors saying stats isn't enabled. Here is a pastebin of the server log. http://pastebin.com/mxq7GacQ

Your results are in a requirement. Thus they will oly be performed if that one requirement is completed. You should put the results outside the requirement, take a look at the advancedconfig on the wiki.

Alright I've tried that and it still doesn't work. http://pastebin.com/zL33B8a0

Does it give any errors?

In the console? I'll check again

This is everything about Autorank in the console while the server was turning on that I was aware of. http://pastebin.com/EHrsPdRS

This is the whole log from when I turned it on. http://pastebin.com/giiA22ri

Autorank doesn't recognise the sheep sheared requirement as it is not a valid one ;)
It's 'times sheared'

Yes it worked! I also just realised I did "Sheeps" as opposed to "Sheep" but that wouldn't have worked anyway! Thank you so much! :)

Great, that's good to hear.

Bump

http://pastebin.com/zpYLcNkZ This is my advanced config

Your rank changes are invalid, check the wiki for more information on that.

Well the rank changes of the groups are not valid. They should be 'rankfrom;rankto', but you only have rankto

I tried doing "rankfrom;rankto", "rankfrom;rankto;world" and I also tried "rankto" on it's own. None of the three seem to work for me. I started with "rankfrom;rankto" and so I started troubleshooting and trial and improving.

I tried removing the stats plugin and doing it and still nothing wants to work

Could you please be more specific? I've been looking at the wikipedia for days haha :)

Can I see your config with the 'rankfrom;rankto' ones?

Sure. Here it is http://pastebin.com/kHx5bYCa
