EssX build 527
git-Paper-1196 (MC: 1.12.1) (Implementing API version 1.12.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

Since I've updated my server to Paper 1.12.1 yesterday spawnerconvert doesn't work for my players anymore, although they have the essentials.spawnerconvert.* permission.
If I test it with OP permissions it still works fine.
Update: I have to be OP AND Gamemode 1 to use spawnerconvert in 1.12.1.

I just double checked it on my testserver as a normal player with spawnerconvert permissions. After downgrading to Paper 1.12 it works fine again, so it's definitely related to the new Minecraft/Paper version.

I would be very pleased if you could test it on your end too.
Thank you in advance!

Seems to be related to this patch: https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/commits/19507baf8b7903427bc3efab7118de6e7c1c931e

Just to make it clear: The command /spawner <mobtype> still works as intended.
But if I take a specific spawner e.g. with /i mobspawner:52 (spider spawner) EssX doesn't convert it anymore and I'm only able to place pig spawners.

As of the TileEntity rework blockstates need to be updated to apply their state to the block which the spawner convert mechanism does not do as seen here.

Having the same issue. It works fine for operators in gamemode1 however.

having same problem

Just Tested #1536 but it did not solve the issue unfortunatly

it did fix it for me, make sure you give them essentials.spawnerconvert and essentials.spawnerconvert.*

Ah, forgot that part, will try again shortly

Yup, works now

Thanks! Could you merge it please? :)

@md678685 ?

PR #1536 has been merged, which should fix the issue - you can get the latest version of EssentialsX from the build server.
