⬇ Download on ModrinthSimple ItemShop is a lightweight plugin for Paper 1.21.1 servers that allows players to create item-for-item shops using a chest and a sign — no economy plugin or server currency required.
How it works
Place a chest, put a sign on top with the following format:
[Sklep]
ITEM_ID AMOUNT
ITEM_ID AMOUNT
[Closed]
Example — selling 64 sugar_cane for 1 diamond:


Once you put the items in the chest, the sign automatically changes from [Closed] to [Open]. Other players can then click the sign to purchase. The chest is fully protected — only the owner can open or break it.
Features
- Item-for-item trading, no economy plugin needed
- Automatic [Open]/[Closed] status on the sign
- Chest protection against other players, pistons and explosions
- PL/EN language support with a simple config
- LuckPerms compatible
Permissions
- itemshop.create — create and destroy own shops
- itemshop.use — buy from shops
- itemshop.admin — manage any shop
Commands
- /itemshop language pl|en — change language
- /itemshop reload — reload config
Note
Currently the plugin uses [Sklep] (Polish for "shop") as the sign tag. Support for [Shop] will be added in a future update.
