I know as a server admin it is very hard to start out with bukkit especially with a survival server. Here is an example of a permissions for the "permissions.yml" in the main bukkit folder. What you have to do is put your name where the admin name "b0b349" is, then copy, paste change, whate ever you need to do . adding nodes is just adding the node to whichever class you want. Inheritance is just inheriting the nodes of the class in the inheritance. (to those of you that see this thread I am knew to this too and I have one question. how do you get the prefixes to work?) Here is the permissions to copy: --------------------------------------------- HTML: plugin: permissions: system: default copies: groups: Default: default: true info: prefix: '' suffix: '' build: false inheritance: permissions: Member: default: false info: prefix: '' suffix: '' build: true inheritance: - Default permissions: -'craftbukkit.command.tell' Moderator: default: false info: prefix: '' suffix: '' build: true inheritance: - Member permissions: -'craftbukkit.command.tp' Admins: default: false info: prefix: '' suffix: '' build: true inheritance: permissions: -'craftbukkit.command.time' -'craftbukkit.command.give' -'craftbukkit.command.gamemode' -'craftbukkit.command.say' -'craftbukkit.command.deop' -'craftbukkit.command.op' -'craftbukkit.command.ban' -'craftbukkit.command.pardon' -'craftbukkit.command.stop' -'craftbukkit.command.save-off' - '*' users: B0b349: groups: - Admins permissions: 1paper: groups: - Moderator permissions: Tonyspot: groups: - Moderator permissions: --------------------------------------------- There ya go
Do you still need the PermissionsBukkit plugin if you use the permisions.yml in the servers root directory?
That's not how permissions.yml works :/ AFAIK it's for setting up custom permission nodes ONLY - if this has changed, I'll stand corrected.
i just want to put this out there. If you think you have a better vanilla permissions please post it. I would love to see some other variations or fixes. because i am very new to this too.
I'm guessing that you mean when editing in Notepad++. You have to use 4 spaces for each indent, NOT the "tab" button. The red shows an error in YAML formatting, and if there does not seem to be any other error, this is likely the cause. So put in 4 spaces where you would be putting a tab, and it should work fine.
