Todo:

• proper chatting system

Changelog:

v1.0.8 - Semi rebuilt

• Fixes all deprecations.
• Fixes a couple silly command issues.
• Removed chatting system till I get a proper one going.
• started working on a new arraylist system.

v1.0.9 - small update

• Cleaned up plugin. file size is smaller
• adds seperate file for arraylists only. Loads, saves, and fully understands the new file. file is called "lists.yml". its' located with the default config in the ReferGift folder.
• Shutoff server and delete the old refergift folder. Start server with v1.0.9 installed and the new file will generate. Why should you delete the other config? It just prevents errors.

Can you please add another Permission node for using the /refer command? I mean that only members can use it. (offline-server)
Thank you,
JPW

Awesome!
However i found a bug,

If a player uses caps on his name, he can refer HIMSELF.

Ex: MyNAmE <-player name
player can refer self by using /referedby myname <-- note: no caps

Could you make it case sensitive?

you might want to add a anti self use by using the sender/target players

I have gotten this error:

EDIT: I think it is a problem with PermissionsEX just want to make sure.

Support Moniez?

I agree bro! Add eco support Iconomy4-5-6 and BOSEco

You should so you can make the console perform commands and make them last a certain amount of time after somebody has been referred. Also if they refer a certain amount of people it performs a different command.

I agree too, i would like to see eco support added

Permission to use /referedby <name>? Would be useful for server with permission based whitelist.

Suggestions:

• If the new player puts the referrer as someone who isn't online, the 'gift' is stored until that player logs in.
• Prevent the "refer yourself" glitch where you type your own name with odd capitalization. For instance, /referedby GuStEbEaSt gives me the reward.
• Make a time out. The new player (newbie) only has X seconds to type the command after joining.
• If that time expires, the newbie is logged into the system as not referring anyone.
• A command for newbies who wern't referred (e.g. /referredby none, or /notreferred)
• A system to shut off outside chat for the newbie (to prevent others from tricking the newbie)
• Permissions for the refer command (to prevent advanced groups from using it)
• Checks previous players to integrate a 'Did you mean?' system. If newbie types /referredby doug, it would reply back, "Do you mean 'doug378'?". This would make it more simple for the newbie.
• Make messages configurable (Just to be complete)

how do i change so you can only gain 3 diamonds?

Thanks for looking at the suggestions, preferably do them top to bottom, as I rated them in importance.
P.S. thanks, ive been looking for a plugin of this nature for ages

Yes. If i was an average player looking for rewards, I would hang out at the spawn and, when a new person joined, immediatly say "if you type /referedby gustebeast, ill give you 10 iron!". The new player, would of course do it, not knowing what the command does. I think this would be a big problem, and that the only solution is to turn off chat for the player. One example is Buycraft, when you type /buy, it opens up a chat thing, and you dont recieve any chat from anyone else. Here it would be the same way, except the chat would be off until the person typed the command. (by outside chat, I just mean all global chat)

Also, a note about the capitalization error. Please don't fix it by adding case sensitivity, as this would make it much harder for the new player to get the username right. Instead, you should actually remove capitalization entirely, so if the newbie types /referedby GuStEbEaSt, the plugin would read it as gustebeast, instead of replying "that user doesn't exist"

any idea on how long the delay feature might take? just wondering cause i could implement this plugin now and work around the delay, or could have it built in.

Its 5:47 now, so it would be ready at around 8?
Oh and could you get the gift storage feature in too? Those are the two features I need to be able to run it.

if you can, get storage instead of delay. Without storage, the person needs to be online at the time, usually when I refer people, it is at school or something, they wouldn't necessarily join at a time when I was online.

Sorry to be such a pain, but my OCD is kicking in. Can you please change the command to /referredby? I see that in all of your commands you spelled "referred" wrong. Sorry, but I love this plugin and it's bugging me that people have to type in a misspelled command.

Hey TopGear, you made messages configurable, but not entirely. Could you make it show exactly what appears in chat. So in the config it would be say...
( getreferedby: [&cReferGift&f] &6 ' &fgot refered by &6 ' ) instead of ( getreferedby: ' got refered by ' )
I ask because I might want to change the prefix [ReferGift] to [RG] and I probably will want to change the color scheme.
And yes please do fix refered to referred

sounds good! Please do post up any stable versions you land at though , even if all the to-do's arn't there yet.
P.S. I could help u test if u need it.

I can't get this to work for iPermissions. It only works when Owner/Op does the referral.. doesn't work for anyone else. They all have the permission refergift.allow.... any suggestions? My users REALLY want this!

I have a great idea! dont use iPermissions! PermissionsBukkit works for any node, and is easy to use.

Oops, I said iPermissions? Sorry, that was a major typo.. I AM using bPermissions and I also have vault installed. =/ I don't get any error messages when the server is loading, so I don't know what the issue is

No worries, most developes dont even listen to the issues that given to them, your fast compared to the ones I've worked worked with!

Also, can you open your profile to the public? Its just kind of annoying to not know when your online or when u were last online.

ok i fricking love this plugin about 10 of my players bring there firiends now thank yyou so muchhh :)))0

Command doesn't work for me /referedby or /notrefered, just shows unknown command.

waiting on a couple of todos to be completed but this looks like a good idea and nice plugin, will be checking it out soon, good work
