Update v1.12
1.16.1 Support!
Official support for the new version of Minecraft has been released! However, this update did not just add support for 1.16. This update was a complete recode for the plugin. It will make new features easier to add it plus will soon offer API for plugins to connect to AdvancedHelp. Please note that this code has been greatly beta tested for the last 1-2 weeks if you find bugs report to me ASAP! Read further below about how I updated the security on your config files.
Bug fixes:
The debugger has been re-done! The debugger will not overwrite corrupted files upon reloads/restarts/server crashes. If you have a problem with your config files (missing space, quotes, etc) you will receive a snakeyml error message in your console. If you need help debugging these errors feel free to join my help discord!
NOTE:
AdvancedHelp is ready for 1.16 but this does not mean other plugins are! If you are using API from PAPI or Head DataBase be wary that it may not work due to their plugin.

AdvancedHelp now works in 1.15! Enjoy the updated version with a few bug fixes
Update v1.11.2
Player heads!:
You can now use all player's heads (not just the player opening the GUI) in the GUI. To use player heads in the GUI follow the format below:
Code (Text):
item-material: PLAYER
Code (Text):
item-material: PLAYER[Cmaaxx]
Reloading the configs:
This is just a reminder to use '/ahelp reload' to reload the config files! Using /reload will cause the debugger to run and if you have errors inside your yml files they may be overwritten. If you have an error in your yml file and issue '/ahelp reload' it will not overwrite your work + it will tell you where the error is!

As well as reloading bugs were fixed.

Update v1.11.1
(Must read)
Run values:
I decided to make run values work a little easier and faster. *Note* You do not have to translate your config to this new info. Your old config should still work(unless you are using item-category for a run value). It is recommended to switch to the way runs work but old configs should be fine
Each run value is named 'value' instead of 'category' or 'gui'. Examples below:Runs are now: CATEGORY, PAGE, GUI, SERVER, COSMETIC, PLAYER-CMD & CONSOLE-CMD
You no longer need to remember the run value cause now it is all the same!
Old way:
Code (Text):
run: CATEGORY
category: example
category: example
New way:
Code (Text):
run: CATEGORY
value: example
value: example
GUI
CATEGORY
PAGE
PLAYER-CMD
CONSOLE-CMD
COSMETIC
SERVER
Code (Text):
run: GUI
value: <gui-name>
value: <gui-name>
Code (Text):
run: CATEGORY
value: <category-name> <optional-page-number>
value: <category-name> <optional-page-number>
Code (Text):
run: PAGE
value: <page-number>
value: <page-number>
Code (Text):
run: PLAYER-CMD
value:
- "feed"
value:
- "feed"
Code (Text):
run: CONSOLE-CMD
value:
- "heal %player%"
value:
- "heal %player%"
Code (Text):
run: COSMETIC
Code (Text):
run: SERVER
value: <SERVER-NAME>
value: <SERVER-NAME>
Side Notes:
If you are using OPEN-GUI instead of the new way (GUI) you should be fine
same goes for HELP-PAGE and PAGEBug with multi-slot items was also fixed

Update v1.11
Welcome to update v1.11!
I would first like to say thank you to everyone who downloaded, left a review, join my discord or supported me throughout the years. AdvancedHelp is approaching 10,000 downloads! Amazing! Super happy to bring y'all this update.
Many big changes occurred! AdvancedHelp GUI is now fully supported in all versions (Only tested in 1.8+). You can now have the GUI run the '/server' bungee command! A refresh option for the GUI was added and many more bug fixes.
Bungee Support:
AdvancedHelp is not a Bungee Plugin! This update introduces bungee support for the command /server. AdvancedHelp is still a spigot plugin and will only work if the jar file is inside your server's plugin folder not in the bungee's plugin folder! You can make items in the GUI direct you to a different server by making the 'run' equal to SERVER. Example below:
Code (Text):
'1':
item-name: '&a&lSkyblock'
item-material: GRASS_BLOCK
item-amount: 1
enchanted: true
lore:
- '&aClick to go to the &lSkyblock &aserver!'
item-slot: 5
run: SERVER
server: SKYBLOCK
item-name: '&a&lSkyblock'
item-material: GRASS_BLOCK
item-amount: 1
enchanted: true
lore:
- '&aClick to go to the &lSkyblock &aserver!'
item-slot: 5
run: SERVER
server: SKYBLOCK
In this example you will notice under the 'run' the server is given by setting 'server' equal to the server name.
Full GUI Support:
*Must read*
I said I wouldn't make the GUI work in older versions but here it is! If you are using a server that is below 1.13 you will need to follow the conditions below:
- You must use 1.13+ block ID names, you cannot use numbers(example polished_granite not 1:2)
- 1.13+ block ID list can be found here
- Example2: instead of 160:5 use lime_stained_glass_pane
- If the item is not found it will default to a BARRIER block
**Please note this is still in BETA**
Around 1000 items in Minecraft were coded to be converted to the 1.14 block id system. There is a high possibility I missed an item or typed it in incorrectly if you find a block that doesn't work please message me ASAP
Refresh GUI/Placeholders:
A new option has been added to the settings.yml.
If you have a placeholder that needs to update you will notice in past versions they did not update. For example, if you had %time% in the GUI, opened the GUI, then an hour later opened it again you will notice the time never changed. This was not a bug but a way I wrote the GUIs to make them lag-free. You can now override this feature by setting 'refresh-guis' to true. Note: this will not create lag nor affect AdvancedHelp in any way. I re-coded the way GUIs work and with refresh on you should still experience 0 lag. However, if you do not have placeholders similar to %time% in the GUI it is recommended to keep it set to false.

Here are a few features I have planned in the later 1.11.x updates. If you have ideas please feel free to message me on discord
- Custom commands that direct you to categories or GUIs
- Full BungeeCord support- Support for commands other than /server
- BungeeCord plugin- Made for the bungee's plugin folder
- Block all command blockers that block /help
- MySQL support
- Help Signs- Click on signs to display help message or GUIs
NOTE: These features are still in BETA if you find bugs please report them to me ASAP on my discord!
Update v1.10.8
Command Priority:
Command priority has been added to AH! If set to 'true' in the settings.yml, this will allow you to open any certain GUI with the command "/help <gui-name>". If you have a GUI and a category with the same name the GUI will show over the category when set to 'true'.
GUI Permissions:
You can now have permissions added to your GUIs! Similar to categories, adding a 'default' option under your GUI name will enable you to set the GUI to be public or not. When 'default' is 'true' then the GUI is public and anyone can view it. When set to 'false' the player will need the permission node "help.<gui-name>".
Example:
Code (Text):
gui:
factions:
title: '&c&lFactions Help'
slots: 45
default: false
home-button: 41
items:
'1':
factions:
title: '&c&lFactions Help'
slots: 45
default: false
home-button: 41
items:
'1':
To view this GUI above you will need the permission node "help.factions" because the 'default' is set to 'false'.
Multi-Slot Support:
It's finally here! You can set items to multiple slots instead of copying and pasting the item over and over again!
To do this you will need to set the items 'item-slot' numbers inside brackets. Such as: [1,2,5,6]

![[IMG]](/proxy/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FwyNOe8g.png)
Also, some small bugs were fixed with Essentials
Also 2x, a secret feature was added in. Since a few people requested this feature for their test servers/when testing AH GUI's, if you add the following code to your settings.yml it will prevent GUIs from remaining open when doing a /reload. If a player has a GUI open on your server during a reload it will close the GUI preventing GUI glitches. This feature will remain a "secret feature" because of possible conflictions with other plugins. (It closes all GUIs/Inventories that are open)
Code (Text):
close-gui-during-reload: true
Update v1.10.7
HeadDatabase Added!:
As requested by many people I added the ability to use blocks from HeadDatabase! To use heads from this plugin in the GUI insert "HDB[<item-id>]" for the "item-material" Example below:
Code (Text):
item-material: HDB[1138]
1138 is the ID number from the Headdatabase item.
![[IMG]](/proxy/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FPMaBWWx.png)
If you would like to see more Heads plugin API added to AdvancedHelp please message me with the link to the plugin
Please note that if you are using the GUI with spigot version 1.12 or lower then you cannot use ID numbers! All materials must be given in its name. This means you will not be able to use many of the blocks in Minecraft that change color. I do not plan on fixing this, if you want the ability to use all the blocks possible in the GUI please update your server to 1.13+.

Update v1.10.6
Player heads!:
This is the BETA test for player heads inside the GUI. Currently like the GUI the heads are only supported in 1.13+! As well as you will only be able to show the head of the player opening the GUI. I am still working on player heads but currently, this is how it will be
.To use player heads change the item-material to PLAYER
Code (Text):
item-material: PLAYER
Bug Fixes:
In this update, I fixed the category permissions. When 'default' is set to false you will need the permission node "help.<category-name>".
Please note that if you are using the GUI with spigot version 1.12 or lower then you cannot use ID numbers! All materials must be given in its name. This means you will not be able to use many of the blocks in Minecraft that change color. I do not plan on fixing this, if you want the ability to use all the blocks possible in the GUI please update your server to 1.13+.
Update v1.10.5
Bug Fixes:
In this update, I changed the way the GUI click listener works. It will now work safer and better for your server! Many bugs with lower versions using the GUI were also fixed.

Update v1.10.4
GUI debugger improved:
In this update, I added/modified the GUI debugger. The debugger is an automatic process and will run upon the creation of the GUIs. If your item type specified in your gui.yml is not found/doesn't exist the item will be set to PAPER. If the debugger finds errors in your gui.yml it will notify you in the console!
Update v1.10.3
GUI Recoded:
In this update, the GUIs were completely redone. It was coded to be a little more efficient for players and safer for your server. If problems occur please message me on discord ASAP!
Update v1.10.2
Bug Fixes:
GUI slots can now be 9 big!
Metrics for https://bstats.org/ were also added in this update, if problems occur please message me asap!

Whats coming soon?
More things are coming! In this update, everything was re-coded (but the GUI). The plugin became more efficient and faster, as well as prepared the plugin for big changes! Stayed tuned
Update v1.9.9
Changes:
I changed the way GUIs are searched for, this means that the GUI titles can be similar to others. This may also allow older versions to use the GUI. Still testing and will look into it more
.Feature Added:
You can use the option 'item-amount' to make the item in the GUI hold more amounts.
Example below:
Code (Text):
gui:
main-page:
title: '&4Help GUI'
slots: 45
close-button: 41
items:
'1':
item-name: '&6&lFactions'
item-material: DIAMOND_SWORD

Code (Text):
run: CATEGORY
category: factions-help
category: factions-help
Code (Text):
run: OPEN-GUI
gui: skyblock
gui: skyblock
you can also replace category with item-category
and also replace gui with item-gui.
Sorry for this misunderstanding.

I recreate a whole new GUI. In this GUI you will have to input what items go where in which GUI(Yes you can have multiple GUIs). More info on main page to come! If you have questions don't be afraid to message me.
Features:
Each item can have a different output when you click on it. Some can run a Command through the player, through the console, display a category, display a help page or just be there for a cosmetic look
100% Freedom!
![[IMG]](/proxy/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fxv1CX3J.gif)

Thank you @Dazedndconfused for finding a big bug with the GUI. Sorry to all this affected! The GUI now changes pages per person, so no longer will have any issues with the GUI suddenly shutting down. More updates to come on the GUI! Stay tuned.
Update v1.8.4
GUI fix:
Thanks to @McJHamer for finding a bug with the GUI. Sorry I forgot to specify the API version. The API is 1.13 for the plugin. All materials should work. Make sure you are using the materials name not the ID number. A good site for material names is: https://minecraftitemids.com/
Update v1.8.3
GUI
The GUI is finally here!
The GUI was first announced as a "coming soon feature" back in October of 2017! Through the tremendous support/reviews received from this plugin, I finally decided to work on the GUI. I tried to make the GUI as customization as possible. I am super excited to release it!
What to know about the GUI:
To open GUI use - /help <custom-key>
You can chose to put whatever word you want in for <custom-key> to open the GUI. Chose 1 word or multiple! Example: /help categories
The word/s to open the GUI can be customized through the setting.yml.
The GUI is optional, you do not have to use it.
Almost everything can be customized.
You can change how big you want the GUI. (How many slots)
You can change the title.
You can change the category Items, lore, and positioning.
Multi-page GUI is available. (Next page / Previous Page)
You can show the player all the created categories or you can show them only the ones they have access to.
The categories will be placed in the GUI from the positioning of the categories.yml file. Top to bottom.
You are able to space them out however you want in the GUI by adding "blank" categories into the categories.yml.
There is no permission node to open the GUI just the basic default one (help.use). This may change in the future.
MORE INFO ON MAIN PAGE
The GUI was only tested on 1.13+, There may be bugs with the GUI. If so, please message me before writing a review! Please give me feedback on the GUI. More to come and I can also change/update the GUI
BUG Fix:
I actually changed the 'Default' to 'default' sorry this mistake!
Update v1.8.2
This update is pretty important! Please read!
In this update, I re-coded the way the configs work. There is no longer a config.yml! Instead, there is a help.yml, categories.yml, and a settings.yml. Upon downloading the update these 3 files will be created inside your AdvancedHelp folder. Please pay close attention to each file before copying and pasting your current info.
BEFORE you copy and paste!:
Before you copy and paste notice that the pages are labeled:
Code (Text):
pages:
Code (Text):
AdvancedHelpPages:
I have coded in a "checker" that will check your configs upon reloads to make sure they are correct.
Custom Messages:
You can finally change the "page not found", "category not found", and "you don't have permission" messages. These messages will be located in settings.yml.
Why did I change the configs?:
I debated this change much. I would never implement this big of a change just because. I have many big plans for the future of AdvancedHelp. This change will let me automatically check/add things to yalls configs to make an easier transition from each update.
I will also be rolling out the GUI update soon that will make an optional GUI for your categories!
Have errors or suggestions? Join my discord or message in the discussion board!
Update v1.8.1
Welcome to 1.13! This build is the official 1.13 build for AdvancedHelp.
Whats different?:
To make this plugin compatible with 1.13 I had to remove the MOTD. The MOTD may return in the future but for right now it will not be in the plugin. This also means that that plugin will be compatible with 1.7 again!
Bugs:
If you are receiving a bug with the new version let me know ASAP! If you are using a version below 1.13 the plugin should work perfectly fine
However, if it doesn't message me and I will send you the older version.Known bugs:
If you are using 1.7 spigot version, the tellraw JSON messages may not work for you.
Coming soon!:
PlaceholderAPI support will be coming soon once I figure out the best way to do without taking away the ability to use /help inside your console!
GUI for categories coming soon as well!
If you have more ideas for the plugin message me
Like the plugin? Leave a review!
Update v1.8
In this update, I've added in tellraw JSON text! You can now use hoverable and clickable text!
Example:
Code (Text):
AdvancedHelpCategories:
categoryexample1:
Default: true
1:
- "&e&m---&e Make the name of the category anything! &e&m---"
- " For example make a category called 'faction'"
- " then players can do /help faction to see help!"
- "{\"text\":\"Example MSG\",\"bold\":true,\"color\":\"light_purple\",\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"open_url\",\"value\":\"http://google.com\"},\"hoverEvent\":{\"action\":\"show_text\",\"value\":\"Click here!\"}}"
categoryexample1:
Default: true
1:
- "&e&m---&e Make the name of the category anything! &e&m---"
- " For example make a category called 'faction'"
- " then players can do /help faction to see help!"
- "{\"text\":\"Example MSG\",\"bold\":true,\"color\":\"light_purple\",\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"open_url\",\"value\":\"http://google.com\"},\"hoverEvent\":{\"action\":\"show_text\",\"value\":\"Click here!\"}}"
?:
/? can now be used! If you have the permission node: "help.override" it will override AdvancedHelp help pages and use Bukkit's help pages!
ehelp:
/ehelp is now blocked and will return /help messages! It is still reccomemend to use the negative permission:

Update v1.7.7
In this update, I recoding much of the old code and cleaned up many files. I also added 2 new features! Styles and an Update Checker!
Update Checker:
The update checker will check for AdvancedHelp updates! Add the following code to your config.yml.
Code (Text):
checkUpdates: true
Styles:
There are now styles to MOTD, similar to how Website does them. There are 3 styles, more info coming soon!
Add the following code to your config:
Code (Text):
MOTD:

Update v1.7.6
In this update, I fixed a small bug dealing with categories, thank you eXioStorm for finding the bug!
This update also removed as well as added a feature.
Removed Feature:
'/?' has been removed from AdvancedHelp. This shortcut to /help has been removed due to users wanting to use /? to see basic essentials help. If you want to block normal players from using /? add this negative permission node to your default rank:
Code (Text):
- -bukkit.command.help
MOTD has been added to AdvancedHelp. A message will be sent to players when they join. You can disable these messages by setting the "enabled" under MOTD to false. Add this code to your plugin's config file to turn off MOTD if you already have the plugin installed before this update.
Code (Text):
MOTD:
enabled: false
enabled: false
Update v1.7.5
Thanks to austin652, I was able to fix a small bug with categories. Everything should be working fine! Please make sure to check your spacing, quotes, and pages when editing your config! Also, make sure you are saving you config before reloading it!
Update v1.7.4
Whats new?
In update 1.7.4 we released custom prefix! Which means you can change the message from your AdvancedHelp prefix when error messages display. For example:
Old prefix:
'[AdvancedHelp] Page not found!'
New prefix:
Whatever you would like!
How to add it to your config:
Easily add the following code to your config.yml file.
Code (Text):

Update v1.7.3
Fixed small bug!
Update v1.7.2
Welcome to update 1.7.2!
In this update, some features have been removed and put into a different plugin! As well as a new feature has been added!
Features taken away:
/website, /donate, & /info have been taken out of this plugin. Please remove this from your config. A new version of the config has been posted on the main page. Why did we do this? We saw that these features weren't a must have for this plugin. We want to keep this plugin strickly "help". Although we removed it from this plugin it doesn't mean we removed it completely! We created a new plugin for helpful commands like them!
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/helpful-commands.48869/
"Helpful Commands" will contain commands that will help your server out greatly! We will also add many cool features to it soon
New feature:
We added %time% to the plugin! Make sure to add this to your config:
Code (Text):
# The format of the timing system
# dd = day | MM = month | yyyy = year | HH = hour | mm = minute | ss = second
dateFormat: "HH:mm:ss dd-MM-yyyy"
# dd = day | MM = month | yyyy = year | HH = hour | mm = minute | ss = second
dateFormat: "HH:mm:ss dd-MM-yyyy"

Update v1.7
Welcome to update 1.7!
*** Complete recode of plugin occurred! ***
Source code to be posted on GitHub soon!
New feature!
A small but useful feature has been added to AdvancedHelp. You can now use %player% to get the players name in your help lines. Use %player% on all help lines (Pages, website, donate, info, and categories).
What does the complete recode mean for me?
The recode of this plugin doesn't mean anything for you, it will not affect you in any way. The reason behind the recode is to get the plugin prepared for...
-
Permission-based help lines
-
Custom Error messages
-
World based help sections
-
Clickable/hoverable text
-
Optional GUI
-
%time%, %online%, %money%, and more!
All these features and more will be coming out soon
(Either in premium version of plugin or an add-on to free version).
(Either in premium version of plugin or an add-on to free version).
Update v1.5
AdvancedHelp now works on 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, and 1.12+!
As we realized that many people run servers with lower versions (1.7, 1.8, 1.9, & 1.10) We made the plugin compatible for all versions!
There should be no errors when running this plugin on your 1.7 - 1.12.x server!
NOTE:
We ran many tests on this update, but if a bug is found please private message me or message in the discussion section.
Update v1.4
Welcome to update 1.4!
In this update, we fixed a few minor bugs and brought a new feature!
Default Categories:
You can now set your categories to "default" meaning the player will not need a permission to open that category.
This will shorten the pain of adding permissions for every category you have.
If you already have this plugin simply add the following code under the name of your categories. (After you download the update)
Code (Text):
Default: true
What does this mean?
true - players can open category without a permission
false - players cannot open category unless they have the permission for the category (help.<categoryname>)
Example of using "default" categories in your code:
Code (Text):
AdvancedHelpCategories:
factions:
Default: true
1:
- "&e&m---&e Factions Help &e&m---"
- " Put multiple line or pages!"
- " &d&lAll &3&lcolor &c&lcodes &a&lwork&6! use &nO &oO &lO &rO &m0 &kO"
2:
- "&e&m---&e Factions Help Page2 &e&m---"
- " add as many pages as you need to categories as well!"
category2:
Default: false
1:
- "add in as many categories as you need!"
factions:
Default: true
1:
- "&e&m---&e Factions Help &e&m---"

2:
- "&e&m---&e Factions Help Page2 &e&m---"
- " add as many pages as you need to categories as well!"
category2:
Default: false
1:
- "add in as many categories as you need!"
Update v1.3
AdvancedHelp is now updated! Added /website, /donate, /info, & /?
Fixed Case-Sensitive bug regarding categories! Categories are no longer case-sensitive.
Make sure to make the category name on your config.yml file lowercase.
Please update your config to the newest version. If you have a current working config and don't want to redo your whole config file, copy and paste the following code into it and the new update should work fine!

1:
- "&e--&dWebsite&e--&7"
