How do I make a Moderator system??????

I have tried making a moderator system using PermissionsEx and EssentialsGroupmanager and i just con fuse my self.

Here is what I tried in EssentialsGroupmanager:

# Group inheritance
#
# Any inherited groups prefixed with a g: are global groups
# and are inherited from the GlobalGroups.yml.
#
# Groups without the g: prefix are groups local to this world
# and are defined in the this groups.yml file.
#
# Local group inheritances define your promotion tree when using 'manpromote/mandemote'

groups:

default: true

Plz plz plz help me!!!!!!!!!!!

The problrem is that their is no command /mod

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I'm not really sure what it is you're trying to do. Care to explain? We use PEX and it's been working quite well for us for several years now.

 

/mod command does not exist with GM nor PEX

 

Do you want the commands to change a user's group/rank?

PEX - Look at the user groups commands - https://github.com/PEXPlugins/PermissionsEx/wiki/Commands
GM - Look at user management commands - http://wiki.ess3.net/wiki/Group_Manager/Commands

 

What makes a moderator or admin or owner or VIP or whatnot depends upon what permission nodes are granted to them. Permission nodes are typically associated to a command or group of commands.

What you want to do is setup your ranks (e.g. groups) so that players belong to 1 particular rank for normal game permissions which typically come with prefix or suffix settings.

Then add a set of groups that will be used in addition to your normal player ranks and name them mod, chatmod, admin, etc. so that your normal ranks that are also staff will have these extra groups.

On my server, everyone has a specific rank...everyone. And the rank comes with a prefix which shows what rank you are. If you are staff, the additional staff groups comes with a suffix to help people identify staff easily.

Here is an example of bukkit permissions (using PermissionsEx) that would accomplish this goal...but keep in mind you can configure it however you like in about a thousand different ways.

Example using 1-level inheritance:

Code:

groups:
  owner:
    inheritance:
    - ownerbukkit
    - adminbukkit
    - modbukkit
    options:
      rank: '100'
    suffix: ' &b&l[Owner]'
  admin:
    inheritance:
    - adminbukkit
    - modbukkit
    options:
      rank: '150'
    suffix: ' &3&l[Admin]&r'
  mod:
    inheritance:
    - modbukkit
    options:
      rank: '200'
    suffix: ' &3&l[Mod]&r'
  citizen:
    default: true
    inheritance:
    - userbukkit
    options:
      rank: '700'
    prefix: '&8&lCitizen &r&f'
  ownerbukkit:
    permissions:
    - bukkit.command.gamemode
    - bukkit.command.gamerule
    - bukkit.command.op
    - bukkit.command.op.give
    - bukkit.command.op.take
    - bukkit.command.plugins
    - -bukkit.command.reload
    - bukkit.command.stop
    - bukkit.command.timings
  adminbukkit:
    permissions:
    - bukkit.broadcast
    - bukkit.broadcast.admin
    - bukkit.command
    - bukkit.command.clear
    - bukkit.command.defaultgamemode
    - bukkit.command.difficulty
    - bukkit.command.give
    - bukkit.command.effect
    - bukkit.command.enchant
    - bukkit.command.help
    - bukkit.command.list
    - bukkit.command.me
    - bukkit.command.save
    - bukkit.command.save.disable
    - bukkit.command.save.enable
    - bukkit.command.save.perform
    - bukkit.command.say
    - bukkit.command.seed
    - bukkit.command.spawnpoint
    - bukkit.command.teleport
    - bukkit.command.time
    - bukkit.command.toggledownfall
    - bukkit.command.unban
    - bukkit.command.unban.ip
    - bukkit.command.unban.player
    - bukkit.command.version
    - bukkit.command.weather
    - bukkit.command.whitelist
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.add
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.disable
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.enable
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.list
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.reload
    - bukkit.command.whitelist.remove
    - bukkit.command.xp
  modbukkit:
    permissions:
    - bukkit.command.ban
    - bukkit.command.ban.ip
    - bukkit.command.ban.player
    - bukkit.command.kick
    - bukkit.command.ban.list
    - bukkit.command.unban.player
    - bukkit.command.unban.ip
    - bukkit.command.teleport
    - bukkit.command.say
  userbukkit:
    permissions:
    - -bukkit.command.clear
    - -bukkit.command.help
    - -bukkit.command.me
    - -bukkit.command.plugins
    - -bukkit.command.version
    - bukkit.broadcast.user
    - bukkit.command.tell
    - bukkit.command.kill

Same example but using multi-level inheritance (permissions cut out in favor of making example shorter):

Code:

groups:
  owner:
    inheritance:
    - ownerbukkit
    - admin
    options:
      rank: '100'
    suffix: ' &b&l[Owner]'
  admin:
    inheritance:
    - adminbukkit
    - mod
    options:
      rank: '150'
    suffix: ' &3&l[Admin]&r'
  mod:
    inheritance:
    - modbukkit
    options:
      rank: '200'
    suffix: ' &3&l[Mod]&r'
  citizen:
    default: true
    inheritance:
    - userbukkit
    options:
      rank: '700'
    prefix: '&8&lCitizen &r&f'

In the 1st example, each group directly inherited a permission group.

In the 2nd example, higher groups inherited the rights of lower-groups.

But in both examples, normal users would only belong to the "Citizen" group. Staff members would have the Citizen group AND a one staff group (but no more than 1)

EDIT: If you want, you can come onto my server and I'll show you my staff's command-n-control room that helps the various staff ranks learn their responsibilities. My IGN is HammondsLegacy and my server address is HammondsLegacy.com
