Welcome Gifts [Unmaintained]

My config file is almost the same as yours, I copied it as requested from page 5 with a few additions (for some reason it changes "format" when "saved" ?, as explained before (many times) I DO NOT have a date folder for this plugin in the data folder file area and in fact I enclosed a file to show that, unless the actual plugin is updated I cannot upload the lua file as Multiplay/clanforge has some funny ideas about what they regard as a good script (drives me mad) IF however the plugin itself (new version number) is updated I can get them to update the plugin or just delete it and reinstall the new version
Thanks for the help anyway,
BTW: I had most of the time between Christmas and the 8th of Jan with the server down and a lot of plugins "removed" because they were causing too much stress for clanforge, Some of the ones I have now dont work 100% but at least they are working, This one is not, nor death notices or gather manager, but thats life

 

put this in your data folder if this and the other files dont save right when you download them I can send them to you another way

 

I DO NOT HAVE A DATA FOLDER IN THE DATA SECTION PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICTURE I POSTED,

 

No need for caps. You dont have data folder as you are not looking in the right folder you need to go into the oxide folder there you will see config, data, lang, logs, and plugins folder

 

as stated before there is no data folder for this plugin apart from the config.json one in the config file, AND IF I WANT TO USE CAPS TO MAKE A POINT I WILL.
I get tired of repeating the same thing to people who dont listen, I am not responsible for the way clanforge design their site or the way they configure their files, what it is is what it is,

 

you were actually not giving me any help, you kept on repeating the same theme, telling me to do something that cannot be done, i gave you the information that no folder/file existed and showed the proof of that, its like your comments on my "stack sizes " list, making the comment (as though it was some big deal) that some things were missing from it, the fact that those things did not (and in the case of doors could not) need to be stacked and were therefore removed by me and would stack in default numbers did not occur to you, you must have had a great time going through the list just to make a (pointless) point,
*in regard to this plugin , I had already thanked you for your help (top of this page) as I am aware that as Clanforge arrange their files the way they do there is nothing I can do about it unless the plugin is updated, I do not thing you are going to do that so this "conversation" is also pointless,
I dont think you have a multiplay/clanforge server , though I might be wrong but certain restrictions seem to apply to them, Wulf will probably be able to tell you about that, and as a point of interest why "hide" your profile ??

 

Ask your host for help they will be the best ones to help you

 

I have to say what a terrible attitude towards a person who clearly is giving their time to try and help someone they do not even know. Have a bit of respect. He clearly is stating the correct answer to you that you must put the file in the data folder where anyone who knows anything about oxide will know is the place the configs for mostly all the plugins are stored. If you can't find that folder then as he stated above you should talk to the host that you are paying money too to figure out why you cannot control the service that you pay for (I thought that might be common sense).

Even if he is repeating himself there is no need to start (Shouting) in capitals.

Manners cost nothing!

Hey bud, do you fancy telling me how you got it working or sharing a working copy? Would love to have this one working.

Cheers.

 

All credit goes to Resistance Thanks Buddy

I modified the plugin from pg 6 "Resistance"
Welcome Gifts | Page 6 | Oxide

All you need to do is add to the oxide/plugins folder and it will work as is thats it.

Changes:
I made the changes directly in the >plugin file and >deleted the other two WelcomeGifts scripts (config/data)out >before saving the plugin hence renewing all.

Attached is my working version straight out of the server today updated, tested and working.


enjoy....
