Autorank -----

An automatic ranking plugin that allows you to set automatic rank-ups with special requirements.




Version: 5.2.2
always one of the better rank control mods. Any chance of getting an update for 1.21.4?

Version: 5.2.2
Plugin works on latest releases but it appears abandoned and can be complicated to configure. I've switched to CMI's rankup system instead.

Not sure how you felt it was abandoned

Version: 5.2.2
Sehr schönes Plugin genau das was ich gesucht habe. Macht was es soll und hilft mir sehr weiter

Version: 5.2.2
Amazing plugin, works wonderfully with LuckPerms. If you are confused on configuring, go to his Wiki! It's very clear and concise, makes it much easier to set up and is more customizable than it may seem.

Version: 5.2.2
Ive used this plugin on and off for like 8 years now, and its just unnecessarily complicated. The documentation is quite extensive, but no server owner sets out to spend hours reading and learning about what should be a simple little plugin that bumps you up a rank when you play a certain amount of hours or do a different task.

Its just not worth the time and effort. Im to the point where time is money and this plugin has cost me thousands of dollars at this point in my life, coming back to MC server ownership and attempting to get the most basic functionality out of this and having so many issues.

Id literally pay $20 for a version of this that doesnt force me to devote my life to understanding this.

I havent even seen any changes in this plugin or how its complicated nature is explained, in fact I know it hasnt been changed, youre looking at the same explanation as you would have 8 years ago. No effort put into explaining things in plain English.

Youre lucky I even gave this 2 stars because I cant get basic functionality out of it once again and this will be the last time I ever attempt to use this plugin.

Version: 5.2.2
This plugin works amazingly! When I had issues configuring the path.yml folder, I asked for help in the discord server they have and a dev was able to help me and get the issue fixed quickly! While it may be a bit on the complex side, it does it's job perfectly :D 10/10 !!

Version: 5.2.1
Excellent developer, always available for each plugin change, recommended. 10/10

Version: 5.2.1
Fantastic resource. Easy to use and highly customizable. Allows servers to dictate the uniqueness of their ranking structure. Developer was also understanding and helpful when I require clarification on a feature. 10/10

Version: 5.2.1
Great plugin it's easy to use recommended for any server!
Also very good support!

Version: 5.2.0
The documentation is clear and concise and the developers are very helpful. This is a great plugin with great support.

Version: 5.2.0
A must have plugin, it's easy to use and is great for any server!
I had an issue that's fixed now thanks to a very helpful dev!

10/10

Version: 5.2.0
Thank you for keeping this updated and functional, it's a great plugin and very easy to use :)

Version: 5.1.9
This is a fantastic plugin. I use this plugin on my server, HalfastMC (its a UHC SMP) and the players there love it. Currently running 1.19.3. Thanks for making this!

Version: 5.1.8
Using it on 1.19.3 spigot

very nice plugin, i use it to award the players with higher ranks the more you play, you can do with it a lot more than that though.

if you're not so good at configing plugins a lot like me, you can just check the wiki on how to build a path

https://autorank.staartvin.com/path-configuration/building-your-own-paths

Version: 5.1.8
Works great! super easy to use and has lots of features. Had some issue and developer helped me figure it out ASAP! Thank you for this!

Version: 5.1.7
Good Resource! I'm using it on 1.16.5 server.
Хороший ресурс! Я использую его на 1.16.5

Version: 5.1.6
Amazing resource! Great discord support. Supports Aurelium skills although the placeholders are on aureliums spigot page.

Version: 5.1.3
Great plugin, friendly support. Does what it says on the box and has lots of configs to make it work to your likings.

Version: 5.1.2
Do you REALLY need to spam so many messages in chat? For the love of god at least put an option to disable all the unneeded chat messages. What about people who jus want a silent plugin to rank people up over time?

Version: 5.1.2
I am really amazed with what this plugin has to offer, not to say it works perfectly and performance of the server is not impacted at all.

On top of that support is friendly and very helpful. These kind of developers are really rare. I would suggest this to everyone.

Version: 5.1.2
excellent plugin congratulations...

I can't find any other way to communicate with you.

How do I make a route only last one active hour?

one or two or three hours and then it deactivates?

best in Discord, I don't have many helpers. You happened to ask during the time most of us sleep

Version: 5.1.2
Excelent plugin, great support. The best part it's you can config every single cmd executed when a player "scale-up" the rank

Version: 5.1.2
Autorank is the best Rank plugin, and it le the player just "work" to get a higer rank

Version: 5.1.0
No 1.8 support anymore since the latest update of this plugin which is unfortunate
-
Author's response
the older version never said they worked on 1.8, I believe 4.1 version will work

Version: v4.5.1
It's a really nice plugin! However, it doesn't seem to support GeyserMC usernames, for bedrock edition crossplay, which is really unfortunate. Please add support for GeyserMC usernames in the future! :D

Version: v4.5.1
If you're running on Paper 1.17.x w/ Java 17 using MySQL, expect console spam and devs seems not to care or inactive for such an urgent issue (it fills up your console, spanned over hundred of MBs wasted)

Version: v4.5.1
only issue i have ran into with this. is after 3 path auto promoting. it disables active pathing and have to manually assign paths to all my players even though its a near copy of previous ranks

Version: v4.5.1
..........................................................
One of the most usefull plugins if you need a easy ranking system!
..........................................................

Version: v4.5.1
Great plugin, well coded. But I think that is too time oriented. Other requirements aren't user-friendly. UUID online/offline handle feature as well useless and full duplicate to bukkit API solution. Database handle is unsecure like... VERY UNSAFE AT ALL, and many duplicated data is present, like uuid storage, also can be optimized. Many things that need enhancement.

Version: v4.5.1
request to Update to 1.17.1, very nice plugin and easy to use! does this support GUI?

Version: v4.5.1
One of the only plugins that works as intended is well documented and actually has amazing support if it's needed. 10/10

Version: v4.5.1
The best thing about this plugin is the documentation!!!! So well documented and deeply impressed after having seen the poor docs of other plugins.
-
Author's response
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it. I've spent a lot of time writing the documentation, so it's good to hear it's paying off!

Version: v4.5.1
User friendly, and tremendous amounts of support from the devs. The discord is THE place to be for solutions as they [the devs] are active and wanting to help. Multiple paths and switching between or multipathing is available as well. An extremely well made plugin would highly recommend.
Also links up with other plugins and works flawlessly throughout.

Author's response
Great to hear that it's working well for you!

Version: v4.5.1
is not compatible w UltraPermission .

Version: v4.4
Hey Hey! Discord link doesnt work anymore :(
Please add a Feature to disable the autocomplete Message and the message when someone joins a new path..

Version: v4.4
Awesome Plugin. No idea why it isn't premium.

Hope that PlaceholderAPI support is fixed soon :)

Version: v4.4
I edit this. Luck Perms actually works, I love you bro xD Excelent Plugin, and sorry for last review <3

Version: v4.4
Thank you for making such a great plugin! I hope you have a great day! Keep up the good work :D

Version: v4.4
I love the plugin! It's the best, most amazing complex rank plugin there is out there if you wanna do something really advanced with ranks! One issue I have, and it's really not even an issue, is that it keeps trying to hook into towny spamming my console with dependency errors for towny when I don't have towny. Thank you!

Version: v4.4
Great Plugin!! But Still waiting for the GUI to be added as you said that GUI will be added soon :(

Version: v4.3.3
Sorry to say it, but this is a really bad plugin. LuckPerms not working with it (doesn’t even list LuckPerms in its hooks). It was not possible to add my default path. Also, when Statz is not installed, it spams the OP with warnings in chat. Really not good enough. I recommend the paid version of RankUp – that actually works well.

Version: v4.3.3
THIS IS ABSOLUTLEY SHIT!!!
I gave it 1 star because there is no option to give it 0 star. Not working. If you are looking a good plugin, dowland the "Rankup". It is orginal plugin. Not a shit like this!
-
Author's response
Hey, if you have any issues, feel free to join our Discord server!

Version: v4.3.3
Tried this using LuckPerms and it wouldn't work. Time played does not register using /ar info <player> even though there's an active path, and no response from the dev in recent reviews either. Please update this plugin and fix bugs issued by other players as well.

Version: v4.3.3
Can you make the requirements section reset completely, ie when a player completes a task, the task will be reset like new when the player leveled up the next rank?,
which means that the quest at the next rank will be like never been done before.
I can't find it, if you haven't done it yet, please update in the next version, if you have do that please show me.

Version: v4.3.3
Not a lot of documentation examples for the Paths.yml. I really liked the old AutoRank. I can't figure out how to get LuckPerms Track to work with the Paths.yml syntax.

This was built for PEX, so if you have that, you should be good to go. For the rest of us, its kind of a headache

Version: v4.3.3
TL;DR: It was a great plugin, until it stopped functioning properly and trying to get ahold of the plugin dev is damn near impossible.

I've been using this plugin for almost 2 years now. It's a fantastic plugin. Does exactly what I want it to do, simple to use, coded well. I started using it I think in 1.11, and I've been using it since and upgrading with no problems, using the same files that I've been using, and when I switched to 1.15 and upgraded the plugin, that's when the problems arose.

All of the files that contained players' playtime vanished. All of the backups that the plugin automatically created also vanished. This was over 1 year of playtime for every player who joined the server, all of it gone. This was a serious problem. I only do full server backups for the world because I home host and don't have enough money for lots of storage, and it was appealing that the plugin automatically created backups, but due to this issue, I lost all of the important files completely out of the blue.

I joined their Discord server and explained my issue. The plugin Dev, Staartvin, did respond to me and said that he didn't know of the issue, and told me that the plugin does not have the ability to delete the files. I found it very odd since no other plugin suffered data loss, so it wouldn't make sense for this to have been caused by something else.

I started looking into the issue and did find another person with the same exact issue. Thread here: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/autorank-issues-alternatives.378972/

This affirmed that this problem wasn't a fluke caused by my server, and that this is an issue that has happened before to other people. This is a pretty large issue, and I tagged him a few times on the Discord server but got no response.

I started to restore the playtime to the best of my ability, by creating a file, where I looked at each players ranks and gave them the minimum amount of playtime for that rank (since my system was that you get a new rank w/ perks after a certain amount of playtime). It's not a perfect fix since players would still lose playtime, but it was good enough since the files are now gone.

I wanted to use the /ar import feature, but as I found out, that is also broken! This was also confirmed by another player on the Discord server that /ar import was not working. I tried it, and it would import about half of the file, but then reset the file after a restart anyway. So it was useless. The plugin was still deleting files after seemingly every restart, and the import feature isn't even working properly.

After tagging Staartvin on multiple occasions and explaining my issue, I still did not get a response. My server has been down for over 1 month and the problem is not anywhere near fixed, so now I'll have to look for a new autorank plugin and hope that it can offer at least half of the functionality that this one did.

Overall I'm very disappointed. I will say that, when I was getting responses from him, Staartvin was very nice and understanding. I do think he is a good guy, but I find it pretty annoying that I'm not getting any responses from him on the Discord server, about a bug that is basically making the plugin unusable for me. I'd be willing to remove my review if these bugs are fixed, my Discord is Cam#1499.

Version: v4.3.2
im using AR 4.3.2 and im wondering that where the advanced config.yml and simple config.yml were.then i have got a paths.yml instead. So how can i convert paths.yml to those apart files ?
thx you
-
Author's response
You can't, it's not supported anymore. The Paths.yml file is the way to go now. See the wiki ( https://github.com/Staartvin/Autorank-2/wiki) for more info.

Version: v4.3.1
Great job. MySQL integration works great. No errors, no problems. Thank you very much.

Version: v4.3.1
Please support plugin SKILLAPI .

Version: v4.3.1
Get it while its hot! LOL

I was stuck on AutoRank 3.4-Dev-355 because I've encountered many issues with newer versions of AutoRank since Paths replaced AdvancedConfig.

I had problems with AR 4.x because AFK would not register correctly and since all of those years, it was due from an antiAFK plugin that registered as an AFK manager or somesort that prevented EssX to report AFK players to AutoRank. This is solved!!

Had issues while using MySQL as primary storage provider, like -1 times when a new player comes in, this is solved in 4.3.1! Memory issues, Solved! Leaderboard console errors, Solved!

Now thinking now with AR 4.3.1, I'm not looking back at AR 3.4 like I used it before, so I'm very happy to use this version!

Very helpful developer, helped me to diagnose my problems and we've solved it nicely! Been a user of AutoRank since Jul 2013

Version: v4.3
I was afraid that you would shy away from 1.15, but you pulled through! keep up the good work friend
-
Author's response
Thanks. I'm back on track, working on Autorank as usual :)

Version: v4.3
Coloco los requisitos para un autorank y los usuarios no suben de rango automáticamente, hay algún video de como hacerlo?
-
Author's response
Please see the wiki to setup the requirements and results. You can find the link on the main page.

Version: v4.2.8
Thanks for all of your time and efford on this (and other) plugin(s)! I had a big issue with this plugin, contacted the developer and he was friendly enough to completely debug and solve the issue together. A lot of devs can learn from this. Thanks a lot, also a big THANK YOU on behalf of all players on my server!
-
Author's response
I always try to find some time to help my users when I can. Have fun using Autorank!

Version: v4.2.8
You are finally back! Awesome haha. I waited so long for this plugin to update and meanwhile switched to an alternative! Maybe I´ll come back again and use this one. Thanks for your work xoxo
-
Author's response
Great to hear you still want me back ;-)

Version: v4.2.6
There seems to be a fork of AutoRank available here
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/autorank-rebooted.68977/
Hopefully we can get this developer to update and fix the issues with AutoRank to keep this plugin going, I cannot find an alternative (If you have one please message me!)
-
Author's response
And so it seems I'm back :) I'm working on an update of Autorank, Plugin Library and Statz.

Version: v4.2.6
The last good working version for me is 4.1 - all of the newer ones just simply do not load / work at all! Please, start back at 4.1 and update that version to 1.14.4 ! For now, its usable to count player online times, but auto rankup seems to be defective.

Version: v4.2.6
Something that basic such as removing users from a path is completely out of the reach of the plugin. If your users have 2 accidental paths to two different ranks in your permissions system, what do you do? You remove the lowest path, right? Wrong. You can't.

And it's really stupid the way commands work. There's this essential command that your users need to see exactly how much they've progressed with the path, but it also shows it everything. I mean EVERYTHING. I don't want my users to see which commands execute when they complete the path.

Version: v4.2.6
Its terrible than old version.

I had use Autorank since 1.7, then once i used the "latest version", i expect better, but no.

It makes it even alienated to previous one.

v3 is better

Version: v4.2.6
Doesn't work for minecraft 1.14.2, i'll posted my issue on discussion, also wiki looks outdated :/

Version: v4.2.6
Very nice plugin! Its essential for my server to work! It would be great to see support for 1.14!

Thank you very much for your doings!

Version: v4.2.6
Doesn't actually auto rank players. It was before then all of a sudden it broke without anything changing. The progress bar doesn't even work.

Version: v4.2.6
Please add support with the UltimateVotes plugin. Or maybe add command for add votes requirements with console, type /ar addvote player value

Version: v4.2.6
for experimented user only

user friendly 5/5
pnp 0/5
server creator friendly 1/5

do a lot of jobs and binded on a lot of requirement. can be costumised a lot and when i say a lot its like a full blank page where you need to spend your week long to code it for 30 rank.... i mean its realy not for someone want to plug press some button and play. but if you want something working and complete i recommand it has well. just can i suggest to rework your wiki? its kinda a mess when you are trying to find some info and exemple or a list of option we can use. i never saw something missing this much of stuff but getting a lot of stuff too. real maze for the prob and japaness language for noob!

Version: v4.2.6
Put the old version back on because it is useless.
Put the old version back on because it is useless.

Version: v4.2.6
This plugin concept is so great, it help me create a rewards system for the dedicated and weed out the one time spammers or griefers.

Version: v4.2.6
I admire your work and my rating is based on that ... but sincerely, since version 3.8.5 the plugin lost its value, the ease of creating rankup is no longer the same and what I did not like the most was the elimination of Support for 1.8, being that it is one of the most used versions currently. Greetings and sorry for my bad English.

Version: v4.2.6
when did return simpleconfig?.... to many things ton configure now whith the v4.2.6

Version: v4.2.6
I just donloaded the last version for 1.12.2. The documentation ist very good! It took me 30 minutes to get into it and to set up the first path! Excellent!

Version: v4.2.6
WHY would you take something so simple to use and destroy it? The previous system worked PERFECTLY! 2 MONTHS I've tried to create a path this program would recognize, and it just keeps giving me error messages and not recognizing the config file I create. If there were any other autorank programs I'd run to one of them, unfortunately, there aren't! Please, PLEASE, go back to the simple config.

Version: v4.2.6
love this plugin and the update is good! just has a typo that needs fixing where it says to view progress type /ar check (path) but it should be /ar view

Version: v4.2.6
Your new command handling is sick, players are lost, and now i create a system to do a thing a little bit better than your developper friendly system.
also, Your time handling is sick,
So what's good ? It's the only plugin to do that system

Version: v4.2.3
It may have been a rollercoaster without safety belts. but in the end. This is the only plugin I would want to use. There simply is nothing else with this many features.

Would love to give it 5 stars, but I can't say I have been using it without issues. Including loss of data before.

But, backups are here to the rescue. At least in my case. Other's do not always have that luxury.

Even though all this, this developer has been working on it for years, and we used it for years.

So why quit so fast on something build up over many years?

Keep it up!

Version: v4.2.3
times of /ar check /ar times and /ar top show different time.
example. if /ar check says i have 20 days, /ar top shows 19 days.
then randomly the leaderboard updates. and shows that i have 20 days. so i run /ar check and it shows 19 days...
the times are so messed up, when i updated to 4.2.3 it reset ALL of my players times without asking.

had originally used Statz for tracking, but AR decided to unlink from it, even though it says its using it on server startup.

now the Statz time is messed up as well (shows 10 days)

most players say to just use 4.1 instead

makes me miss OnTime

Version: v4.2.3
I've been using Autorank for a few years now and updated to 4.0 when it was first released. I hated it in the beginning, and I still hate it now. I wanted a plugin that would automatically rank players up based on time, and ever since 4.0 this plugin has been trying to way too much and hasn't done any of it very well. The configurations are absolutely terrible to navigate. Regardless of whether there is a wiki, the configs suck. One of my biggest issues with 4.0 is that it basically FORCES "paths" on you. Even if you configure it to be as automatic as possible, players still get messages such as "You have automatically been assigned the path <>". All I want this plugin to do is check a player's rank, see if they meet the time requirement to move to the next rank, and move them to that rank if they do. I don't want any feedback and I don't want the players to do any commands!

Version: v4.2.3
Guys this plugin is great. It's very configurable and works just fine for me on 1.12.2. If you have any trouble then you probably didn't read everything here. If you did and you are still having trouble then ask for help. Don't leave bad reviews on a great plugin just because your'e lazy. I had trouble at first too then I asked for help in the discussion. Haven't had any problems since. Thanks for all your hard work!

Version: v4.2.3
Using this on my server as my servers suggested.

I personally would never want a 1-star on one of my plugins, but this is extremely confusing and I preferred the v3 version, configuring this plugin gives you a programmer's vibe, kinda feels like you're trying to figure out things rather than simply put things together.

One of the most complicated config files I've ever stumbled upon, would totally NOT recommend for starters.

Version: v4.2.3
confused but can it demote aswell??? like if a player got promoted through using xp levels but if their ex drops below a level it will demote them but promote them when they get the correct amount

good plugin though seems to work fine although still need to know how to do the above mentioned
-
Author's response
Demoting is not currently supported. I'm working on adding that as a feature of paths.

Version: v4.1
It says that I need to install lots of other plugins that don't work with my 1.12.2

Version: v4.1
Great plugin! Working well still. No complaints. Shame to see people mis-using reviews because they cant find out how to get help properly.

Version: v4.1
Should bring back the old way of autorank, right the way it is very difficult to assemble just one rank. Confusing and barely any detail on how to create a rank
-
Author's response
Please see the wiki ( https://github.com/Staartvin/Autorank-2/wiki/How-to-configure-the-Paths.yml-file%3F) before resorting to writing such accusations.

Version: v4.1
Developer needs to update the Overview page : it is lacking obvious installation instructions, paths file templates, and mandatory "soft" dependencies such as PluginLibrary and Statz; which are creating a TON of confusion.

Otherwise, THIS PLUGIN WORKS PERFECTLY ON 1.12.2!!! If you have any questions about your paths file, contact me directly for an example to follow.
-
Author's response
Sidious, thanks for your feedback! What would you like to add? Send me a PM! BTW, your path files seem to be popular ;-)

Version: v4.1
This plugin works great, and has many available features!
When I couldn't fix an issue on my own, the developer replied quickly and we had my config error resolved the next day. Thank you Staartvin!

(please note: if you have issues you are best off contacting him on GitHub with all the info)

Version: v4.1
Works like a charm. Thanks so much its exactly what I needed. A special thanks to Sidious82 for posting his paths config in the discussion tab. It was very helpful.

Version: v4.1
Works well, except I must be doing something wrong; when i attempt to use the "blocks placed" or "blocks broken" in the paths config, players stats or statz are not showing up when the do /ar track [req. #]. The value shows -1 of whatever# for both stats.

Version: v4.1
Once I figured out that the 'path' is the rank you want your players to have on your server, it was just as easy as before the huge update. Sidious82 has pasted an example in the discussion that will REALLY helped me out. Could 'auto choose: true' be default though? Thank you again for all your hard work and dedication to this plugin!

Version: v4.1
Not working plugin hooks! and any errors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.............................

Please do not use the review section as a sort of bug tracker. If you have problem, please post it here: https://github.com/Staartvin/Autorank-2/issues

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Good concept, poor execution. You really shouldn't have released the a beta version that changed so many things. It should have been a different plugin instead. I'm going back to 3.8.5

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Way to complicated to use. The configuation worked much better before, and was way easier to understand. The changes that has been made lately regarding configuration are terrible and should never been done. The tutorial is not good either. The video is outdated, and the updated text-version is just not very informative on all the possibilities this plugin has and how to use them.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
This plugin is great and works perfectly. All you need to do is learn how the configs work and you should be fine

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
I have used this plugin for so long. Recently the plugin became so complex there was no need for it. Developers kind of ruined the plugin unfortunately.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
This plugin might be good, but the "Tutorial" video IS SO OUTDATED! The Config looks COMPLETE different, how do i use this?! I dont know, there is no example config published or similar, please anyone got a example config?

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
perhaps this can help people and they will stop messaging me. I hope you don't mind @Staartvin, about me posting this to help new joins to this wonderful resource!
This is my path for kills and time and I hope it helps!!
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ic3cdn9mofudien/Help%20with%20paths.zip?dl=0

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
The idea behind it is very good! We will admit! We have no problem with the path.yml! In our eyes that is an advancement! Although, we havn't been able to figure it out since the Wiki is messy/hard to understand!

The fault may be with us, since we run on 1.12.1 and that causes some problems! We run our ranking system with Pex, which doesn't work well with the built-in group trigger/result. Instead we use the command trigger/result. The problem is, it doesn't seem to activate the commands! We have tried a lot of things, but it won't work!

We don't believe the problem is with out plugins, since we created a test server, and the problem was still there. We will look for alternatives to this plugin!

If you as a server owner can figure out how to use this plugin with Pex, then please contact us!

New versions are too un-friendly to set up and use. Older versions have better formatting, easier to configure, and much easier for players to use.

The new path.yml is a lot more complicated the simple and advanced configs from before were a lot more user friendly. I would prefer the way it was with the previous set up.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Didn't get on with 4.0.7 at all. 3.7 appears to work fine for me.

407
(particularly choosing paths etc) is a bit convoluted for my needs, and seemed to only hinder what I was trying to achieve. That said i can certainly see the potential uses behind it, RPG servers definitely would benefit from it.

3.7
Downloaded as another review mentioned it; exactly what i'm after. Hassle free configuration for automated ranking of players based on playtime or other specified variables.

Thank you for the 3.7 version of this plugin.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Used to be extremely simple and easy to use,

Now new version just make a bit hassle and tedious.
Instead of automatically rankup, they make use of "choosing" path.
Its very great for RPG server, but its not great for some server who previously used autorank and expecting to be rankup automatically.

Instead, you need to manually choose the rankup, and type bunch of overlong prereqs command. Your /ar choose, and /ar prereqs are players nightmare.

1/5, use old Autorank 3.7 back. Its the best version you can get.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
I literally cannot even modify the default path "test path" , like adding a new command, without the plugin crashing! There's literally NO FORMAT described in your wiki...

In the default test path that comes loaded you show tabbing with 2 spaces... and values are right next to requirement...yet your documentation shows 4 space tabbing and values of a requirement are set to value of a requirement....

This isn't about understanding it, I find it easy to grasp. But when you can't stick to a format, bleh! Forget it!

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Used to be amazing and simple. Now players can't even check their playtime if they're not on a path. Regardless of whether you're using the simple config or not. Not to mention paths are extremely difficult to understand now.

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
Love this plugin. In the beginning its a bit hard to figure out, but when you finally figured it out its amazing!!!

Version: Autorank v4.0.7
I retract my statement before. I was frustrated and I am sorry, I have however got it to work properly. I rate 5 starts,.

Version: v4.0.6
don't listen to these people it's their fault that they can not understand how something works use your brain people not everything should be handed to you sometimes you have to work for it!
With that said keep up the good work!

Version: v4.0.5
This version is terrible. I had to download an older version because your new set up has became so convoluted that I cannot get it to work at all.
I downloaded 3.8.5.1 and it is a whole lot easier.
You should've never gone with the "upgrade" if that is what you want to call it.
You should have stuck to what you had to make it really easy for people to understand and not what you currently have.

Version: v4.0.5
So i have been trying to talk with the author for awhile now and still no response. I have been trying to figure out why players are not ranking up, and still nothing from the author. Will change rating if I finally get help, but for now I would not recommend this plugin to anyone.

Version: v4.0.5
It has become very difficult to understand your path configuration. before was just something like this:

ranks:
Nuovo:
requirements:
gamemode: 0
results:
command: 'msg &p Esegui il comando /attivazione per iniziare a giocare;kit nuovo &p'
message: 'Esegui /attivazione'
tp: 99980;4;99975;builders;1.0;2.0
Straniero:
requirements:
time:
value: 8h
results:
rank change: Straniero;Viandante
command: 'pex promote &p; me Il Corpo di Guardia di Nevayln ha ormai iniziato a conoscere il volto di &p, pertanto lo hanno registrato presso Anagrafe come Viandante del Regno.'
message: 'Congratulazioni, Sei stato promosso con Araldica di Viandante.'


Now it's so mutch difficult, only to configure one is 1 hour to understand how it works!!!

Agree with this dude, this plugin used to be better then this, you should have not have statz should be a standard plugin.

Idk (feerko)- if it dont work to go across your bungee, then do it per server it works just fine, why would you want the same configuration on each server you run? that makes no sense! great plugin, just a bit hard to get the paths to work right lol but keep up the good work! also in your documentation it does not show how it would look in your paths if a player kills mobs or player kills only things like blocks broke money mcmmo skill where this is good, "full" documentation on a full path lay out would help! but i like to use my brain unlike some people.

Thanks for the kind review!

Version: v4.0.5
it's doesn't work on bungee .

Version: v4.0.5
Hello! I love this plugin. I have been using this plugin since 2012. Thank you for continuously updating your plugin. I love how this plugin automatically upgrades your rank. You are a life saver. Good luck in future plugins.

I strongly recommend other people using this plugin. You able to do so many things! So many cool features!

Version: v4.0.5
Brilliant plugin. I don't understand the paths concept, was hoping it was for what I'm needing but still, probably the best!

Version: v4.0.5
Great plugin, works as intended, very robust, Fits my needs perfectly and can do even more than what I need.

Developer is nice, open to suggestions and is active!

Version: v4.0.5
Seems like a cool plugin.

I was wondering if you can enable this for PowerRanks
if you could that would be nice =3

Version: v4.0.5
Auto rank is working very well. Its a great way for players to advance. I am however getting an error that with requirement "has achievement"

Author's response
Could you post an error on the Github Issue tracker? Thanks in advance!

Version: v4.0.5
Amazing plugin. Dev answers within an hour. No bugs, easy to configure. There are alot of pages that will guide you how to set things up.

Version: v4.0.5
By far the only and true Autorank plugin out there, and the best part is the Dev is very active and helps out every time!

Version: v4.0.5
Autorank is decent itself, but the fact that you need to download other plugins from the author (which is useless in my case) to get certain stuff like AFK intergation to work. It worked before without Statz. So now he changed it so that you need to download Statz which spams
''INFO]: [Statz debug] Save Statz database.''
Every 10 sec in your console. Wont recommend other people to use this since you need to download two plugins to make one work. The thing is that he disabled a feature in AutoRank so more people would download his other plugin.
-
Author's response
I can understand why you are upset. Luckily you can disable that message in the Statz config, you can also disable the tracking of Statz in the configuration. Lastly, I don't necessarily want admins to download my Statz plugin, but as it functions as a hub to connect to other plugins, Autorank requires it.

Version: v4.0.5
Giving it 5 stars, it is amazing! I would prefer the previous version but this one works amazingly! Pretty confusing config too but I can figure it out!

Version: v4.0.4
Hi! I give 5 stars because it works very well, although I do not like it, there is no reason to give bad score. I liked the previous version, it was easier to understand and configure, I do not understand much this. Can I talk to you privately to ask questions?
-
Author's response
Sure, send me a PM!

Version: v4.0.4
I'm really starting to lose faith in this plugin and developer. The plugin is far too complicated now and can no longer complete the simple task of promoting players on a linear path of ranks based on playtime. It now requires manually choosing paths, completing various tasks, and tracking every statistic possible. The configuration is far more complicated then it needs to be, and many of the features are outright broken in these beta updates.

I attempted to contact the dev on January 30th regarding the troubles I was having and never got a response.
-
Author's response
Contrary to this belief, it is actually possible to create a linear ranking system. You can also let Autorank automatically assign paths to players so they don't have to manually choose it. Please contact me on Skype (Staartvin), as it seems you are having difficulty with Autorank.

Version: v4.0.4
Awesome plugin! It can be used for great things. Easy to set up, and great support from the developer.

Version: v4.0.4
Staartvin is a super nice dev who is very helpful. He helped me to set it up and it's pretty easy once you get the hang on it. He's made us all a great wiki which very helpful. The plugin works flawlessly and is an amazing resource, been using it since 2013 and it's still growing and becoming better. Well done Staartvin, keep up the good progress :) -Tommy

Version: v4.0.4
Great plugin, very easy to use and helps keep things organized. Definitely five start worthy, nice work.

Version: v4.0.3
Is Jobs still supported because when I try to add jobs level in the path it gives me an error. Love the plugin so far.

Version: v4.0.3
please add uskyblock levels to this plugin thanks~^^
Its just the plugin that my server is looking for!

Version: v4.0.3
I am a registered idiot, thankfully this dev is extremely helpful, and I was able to get everything working. Thanks!

Version: v4.0.3
Really good plugin. To be honest, for a while I wanted to leave 2 stars too. But then I realized that I was wrong, and the 3 other reviews are wrong.
It's like with the iOS 7, when Apple changed the way to close apps. I knew so much people that did not liked that way, but with the time they realized that was better.
I think that with Autorank it's the same. This version is so much better than the old, only changed a bit the way to config it. It has new options, not only linear ranking system.
They says that it's complicated only because they are accustomed to the old config. But it's easy to config. If they were new to the plugin, they would not say that.
Excellent plugin

Version: v4.0.3
The config file is very complicated. I like the older version better. It doesn't even work in the latest version (4.0.3)

Author's response
Before you rate this version with 1 star, I would like you to contact me (or others) via the forum first. I have no clue what your problem is and I can't help you with such a meaningless review. Please send me a private message or create a Github issue.

Version: v4.0.3
Quite complicated and advanced to use, I honestly liked the old version better. I've spent hours trying to get this plugin to work, but still ain't working properly.

I really liked the older version of 3.8, I'm finding the new version hard to work with due to the way I use the plugin. Version 3.8 would've easily gotten a 5* review, Any chance of being able to downgrade?
-
Author's response
That's unfortunate! Did you take a look at the wiki that has many tutorials for version 4?

Version: v4.0.3
One of the greatest plugins out there, highly recommended. The developer also helps you if you contact him in message if you have any issues with the plugin!

Version: v4.0.2
Amazing plugin
Amazing Developer
Just perfect
5/5 good job!
And its a free plugin for all
If this plugin cost 50$ i would buy it..

Author's response
Unfortunately, you can't downgrade if you did make a backup. However, I'm more interested in why you find it too 'hard to work with'?

Version: v4.0.1
It's a good Plugin, I've always used it... However, it seems to no longer (easily) support my Server's method of ranking people up. On my Server, Players rank up simply by playing... when they reach a specific time played, they get promoted to the next rank in the system.

With the new update though... it seems that every time you complete a Path (rank), you have to manually choose the next rank with "/ar choose RankName", but when you do "/ar view list", it shows every path on the system, even if the rank isn't available for them. I have 21 ranks on my Server and I don't want my Players to have to route 21 different Paths to find their next one.

Maybe make it so unavailable paths (due to prerequisites not being met) aren't visible in the Path list?

I may be going about this the wrong way... I used to use the simpleconfig.yml and that isn't available anymore so this advanced version is all new to me. Here's a pastebin example of how I tried to convert my old simpleconfig into the new format:

simpleconfig: (example using only 4 ranks)
Rank1: Rank2 after 3m
Rank2: Rank3 after 30m
Rank3: Rank4 after 1h

Attempted Conversion:

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing some problems. Please post a new issue on the github issue tracker so we can resolve this!

Version: v3.8.5.1
I think I'm using Autorank for about 2,5 years now and I can't say anything else but this is one of my favorite plugins. You can configure the plugin just the way you want it to. So everyone can use this plugin. I really love it. Thanks!

Version: v3.8.5.1
Good plugin overall, though would be better and more beneficial to me if you added Enjin DonationCraft variables so you are able to make it so if a player donates a certain amount to your donation store, you're able to make the rankup in donation ranks by how much they donate.
For example, if there was [Donor] rank which is for players that have donated $1-$10 and [VIP] for players that have donated $11-20 and "Steve" a player donates for $5 of perks, he gets [Donor] rank and not [VIP] rank but when donates more for $10 of perks, he gets [VIP] rank.

Version: v3.8.5.1
Some people gets to the top of the ranklist with some kind of bug/glitch fix this please! Some player has 1-2hours and on the top of the list where he should get 160hours to get there! Tried enabling deranking, reseting datas for him didnt worked and he jumped back to the top! Fix this please, thank you!

Version: v3.8.5.1
Very good plugin that allow you to put the objetives that you want. There are so much options to config, and that is a very good thing.

Version: v3.8.5.1
This plugin is amazing, but AFK integration time doesn't work, please fix, or help me! 5 stars.... :D

Version: v3.8.5.1
One of the best plugins i've seen, has everything I can imagine with the constant updates of bug fixing! This is one of the only plugin I give 5 star out of hundreds I've reviewed.

Version: v3.8.4
Overall amazing plugin, the Statz generates HUGE files and the MySQL for it doesnt work properly, when I tried using AutoRank to count in game time it didn't work either, if you fix the timer to work Im gonna 5 star it :)

Version: v3.8.4
The plugin overall is simply amazing ever aspect of it. I just wonder how i can make it so the plugin doesnt automatically rank players up cause i have it set so it takes the money and some players dont like it taking Unless theyre doing /ar check

Version: v3.8.4
This seems like an Excellent plugin and i would like to rate it 5 stars, but there's one problem, every time i enter a autorank command it doesn't show anything, it doesn't do the command or does it show an error

Version: v3.8.4
I would rate higher but i'm having a major issue please help. If resolved I'll rate 5 stars. http://pastebin.com/fLKxssaL

Version: v3.8.4
Working brilliantly! Players like having the option to check when they will next rank up and Statz has turned out to be really handy for some other things too so good work devs!

Version: v3.8.4
Iv'e used this plugin before and its good but I'm having a couple issues

1) Pex support really needs to be added. Group manager has been left to die and it's only a matter of time before it stops working entirely

2) The config says that in order to tracks a lot of stuff the stats plugin needs to be added. Does vote tracking absolutely require stats or was that a typo and it's supposed to be Statz?
-
Author's response
PEX should work with it. What verison of PEX are you using?

Statz is used to track votes.

Version: v3.8.4
Yeah you need to add PEX ..... I had a lot of trouble setting it up and found out that it only works with GroupManager which is odd since the majority of people use PEX

Version: v3.8.4
This plugin is useless to me as it only supports GroupManager and I've tried using PEX and it doesn't work.
It doesn't show an error on startup, neither does it show up when I put in the autorank command.

Version: v3.8.4
Really cool and professional plugin!
I absolutly like plugins that works completly atomaticly!
Can you also add the feature that you can be downranked?
Here an example: If a player isn't online since 1 month he looses ontime so that he will be downranked.
Would be a really nice addition to this plugin.
Thank you for the great work!

Author's response
Downranking can already done! Look at the wiki for more info!

Version: v3.8.4
good hob man. Keep up the good work. (Add ingame config to make it much much better and easier to use for everyone)
