WelcomeBoost -----

Encourage friendly communities by letting players earn rewards for welcoming first-time joiners.



Features
  • Reward Welcomers: When a brand new player joins for the first time, online players can type /wl to send a warm welcome and receive a configurable Vault money reward.

  • Configurable Messages: All plugin messages—including join notifications, chat welcomes, rewards, permission errors, and more—are fully customizable in config.yml.

  • Vault Support: Seamless integration with Vault for compatibility with any major economy plugin (EssentialsX, CMI, etc).

  • One-time Welcome: Each new player can only be welcomed once, preventing reward abuse.

  • Simple & Lightweight: Minimal performance impact and easy to use—perfect for any server size.

  • No Annoying Spam: Only notifies existing players; new players don’t see the prompt message.

  • Config Reload Command: Instantly reload your plugin's configuration with /welcomeboost reload (admin only, no restart required).
How It Works
  1. When a new player joins for the first time, all existing online players receive a colorful notification suggesting they use /wl.

  2. Any player (except the new joiner) can type /wl. This will:
    • Send a customizable chat message as if the player typed “Welcome <newplayer>!”

    • Instantly reward them with the configured Vault amount.

    • Thank them privately with a configurable message.

    • Prevent any other player from welcoming the same new player again.
  3. All join/welcome/reward messages and the amount are configurable.
Installation Instructions
Requirements:

  • Vault (and a compatible economy plugin such as EssentialsX or CMI)

  • Minecraft server version 1.21 or higher
Setup:

  1. Download the WelcomeBoost jar and place it in your server’s /plugins folder.

  2. Ensure Vault and an economy plugin are also installed and working.

  3. Restart your server.
Configuration:

  • The plugin will generate a config.yml file in the plugins/WelcomeBoost folder.

  • Open config.yml to adjust reward amounts, messages, and other settings to fit your server’s style.

  • To reload the config without restarting the server, use /welcomeboost reload (admin only).
Permissions:

  • welcomeboost.use – Allows players to use the /wl command (enabled for everyone by default).

  • welcomeboost.admin – Required for /welcomeboost reload (default: OP only)
