Hi everybody,
I'm doing exactly what I really said I didn't want to do. Would like to start off by saying awesome server hosting, great forum community, and a quick thanks to everyone interested in helping me. Originally I started a server to play with my friend who lives in another neighborhood, but it has become a whole community thing there I am having a big group of friends join in. As more and more people joined, I came to the conclusion that I need rank like permission groups to stop my friends from abusing plugins. And banning each other. There has been a lot of that. Yesterday, I spent NUMEROUS hours trying to get permissions. I tried permissionsex, bpermissions, and like 3 more. I watched countless tutorials on youtube but they showed you how to get ranks and not sort the commands into them, which is completely useless... After trying and failing for over 5 hours, I got one of my super good Minecraft friends. Super tech guy, he said he could do it in 5 minutes but after an hour of him trying, he said it must be aternos because he tried it again on another server hosting site and it worked... so i'm completely stuck
To explain what I did, I got everything set up and the little rank [Owner] in front of my name, but when I added permissions, it wouldn't let that rank do any of them (I did use the correct code for permissions, however I could have put them in incorrectly. Not only did the permissions not work, but the nametags stopped working too. I tried this and relearned like 4 more times for different permission plugins and I am completely clueless and frustrated.
If anybody could send me a tutorial that showed the plugins, or explain how to do it correctly or even just show me their coding that would be amazing. So sorry for the bother but I am just so beyond frustrated after spending numerous hours and not even knowing what I am doing wrong....
