Bugfixing

  1. You're plugin is not working!
    It works. Believe it.
  2. I get errors!
    Destroy the portals, delete the 'SignPortals' folder and try it again :)

For errors, use the ticket-function please.
Don't just write "XYZ is not working. HELP ME!"

How do I ... ?

All files are stored in the "plugins\PortalSigns\" folder.

  1. ... reset my portals?
    First delete all portals ingame and then delete the "Portal.PS" file.
    For specific portals open the "Portals.PS" file and delete them.
  2. ... edit the messages?
    Open the "Config.Ps" file and edit them.
    Take a look at the "Configuration" page here!
  3. ... report bugs the right way?
    In your server log starts a line with "Caused by: ..." (If it's a real bug)
    I just need the "Caused by: ..." and its following lines.
