CopySign
Stop retyping signs. Copy any sign with a click, save your favorites, paste them anywhere.
CopySign turns sign creation into a one-click workflow. Shift+left-click any sign while holding a blank one and the text, colors, and glow state transfer instantly. Place the sign and it writes itself. Save the ones you use often to a personal library, browse them in a GUI, and let admins push server-wide templates for shops, rules, warps, and anything else your server needs to look consistent.
Features
- One-click copy and paste for any sign, regular or hanging
- Full preservation of text, colors, and glow effects
- Personal sign library with GUI browsing, save, load, and delete
- Server templates for admin-managed, server-wide signs
- Per-player toggle so the feature only triggers when you want it
- Folia support with thread-safe operations
- WorldGuard integration that respects region protections
- Granular permissions for every feature, sign type, and bypass
- Customizable messages, sounds, and cooldowns through config files
- NBT-based storage for reliable, persistent sign data
