⚙ GETTING STARTED

Getting Started

Install GUIPlus and create your first GUI menu

---

📥 Installation

1. Download the latest GUIPlus.jar file

2. Place it in your server's plugins/ folder

3. Restart your server

Warning: Always use a full server restart when installing for the first time. Do not use /reload as it can cause issues with plugin initialization.

1. The plugin will generate its default configuration files

📂 Default Files

After first startup, GUIPlus creates the following files and folders:

plugins/GUIPlus/
├── config.yml           # Main plugin configuration
├── messages.yml         # Customizable messages
├── playerData.yml       # Persistent player data storage
├── cooldownData.yml     # Cooldown tracking
└── CustomGuis/          # Your GUI configuration files
    ├── adminpanel.yml   # Example admin panel GUI
    └── bank.yml         # Example banking GUI

🎯 Your First GUI

GUIPlus comes with two example GUIs to get you started:

Opening the Examples

/gui open adminpanel
/gui open bank

Or use the built-in management menu:

/gui

Using the In-Game Editor

The fastest way to create a GUI is through the in-game editor:

1. Run /gui to open the GUI management menu

2. Click to create a new GUI

3. Set the title, type, and number of rows

4. Place items and configure click events visually

5. Save your GUI with /gui save

Creating a GUI via YAML

You can also create GUIs by writing YAML files directly. Create a new .yml file inside the plugins/GUIPlus/CustomGuis/ folder:

id: mygui
rows: 3
type: chest
title: §6My First GUI
commandAlias: mymenu
scenes:
  '0':
    delay: 0
    items:
      '1':
        slot: 13
        item: DIAMOND
        amount: 1
        item-name: §bHello World!
        item-lore:
          - ''
          - §7This is my first GUIPlus menu!
          - ''
          - §eClick me!
        item-flags: []
        unbreakable: false
        click-events:
          message:
            message: §aYou clicked the diamond!

Then reload with /gui reload and open it with /gui open mygui or /mymenu.
