Thank you for the rework, was simple to setup and offers much more options

Suggestion : Add a command to open the welcome menu post-login, in the event that we want to simply use the welcome panel as a universal info panel.

There is a command for this /info.  You can also add custom commands or change the info command to whatever you want.

My mistake. I must have skipped over that 10 times lol. Thanks!

Hi，Can I put the configured text display into a language file to achieve multilingualism

dont even know where to begin. i have read over the documentation a hundred times.  this mod is super difficult to use.  not like the info page on it says.  it is not easy.  try to get a picture to fit on any panel.  thats where i been for literally 2 weeks.  i dont understand anchors or any of that stuff.  thats why i bought a mod. if i  knew how to do all this i wouldnt have bought a mod to do it for me.  or how about when you import kits ALLLLLLLLL of the kits show even if you dont have auth to see or claim them.  i know the issues are on my end as other people seem to have no problem.  not my case.   

David, do you have a video for us plebs who arnt nuclear scientists to follow?   a video for us to follow would solve most of this forums posts.  im trying to not give up on this mod, but getting pretty hopeless on gettting it to work.   i cant go live w my server untill i have ... an info panel that works. i shouldnt need a degree to get it to work.  and david  your instructions... are sh1t for me.  they are written for someone with the knowledge that you already have.  not for someone who doesnt.   i think if you dont plan to make installation and configuring easier ( it looks like you copied some general information on html and anchors that apply to anything under this engine not specifically rust or this mod), you should be more honest and upfront with what it takes to ACTUALLY get this to work on the info page.  you make it sound super easy and all that on the info page.

 

How hard is to get this plugin all set up?

It's fairly simple. Plugin comes with default configuration which showcases everything you need to know regarding text, styling and changing images. 
 

How hard it is to customize your own layout?
When it comes to changing color or images it's simple, any inexperienced user can do it however if you want to customize positions of UI or add extra tab buttons, it requires understanding of "ui anchors". Anchors are not that complicated but it takes hour or two to fully understand it. For more info check documentation.

thats not the case unless you already know how.  also the BIG WARNINGs  that you have how its not your fault or responsibility to get it to actually work (specifically if we fuck up on anchors or what not)  doesnt make me feel comfortable to try to adjust anything.   it gives me anxiety to change anything because if it breaks i have NO help as stated in your instructions to fix it.    

im not trying to shit on you, i spent a lot of money on your personal mods.  im struggling, trying to make it work.   im using the #2 panel that you have provided.  what is the size of the pictures that fit there?  i dont want to do some science shit i dont understand to get a picture to work.  cant you just take the default ones you have and actually tell us what fits there?  or can you streamline the process.  im not feeling the value in my purchase here.

 

If your like :  the instructions are there  ,or just dont want to help make it easier to use, no problem  no hard feelings.  just let me know so i can buy something easier to use.

 

I understand your frustration mate. My personal crash course on UI positioning a couple of years ago was a rough learning curve. However, this is pretty much how UI needs to be done in plugin form. The plugin makes it about as simple as it can be while still having all its individual parts. 

As far as I know there really isn't a way to just make a click-and-drag or in-game method of customizing the UI in a way that one might consider more ideal. 

One thing to know is for positions, x y and z all begin at 0 and end at 1.0. 0 is completely on one side of the screen and 1.0 is completely on the other.
Anchoring I never got too much into but padding is essentially the same concept as indentation away from the edge.

So far I left all that stuff default in this plugin and simply redid and formatted the text parts. I'd suggest getting used to that first and then toying around with the locations of the elements and whatnot. Best way to test a lot of this stuff is to see the difference between a setting of 0.0 and 0.5 and 1.0. Throwing in a 0.75 or 0.25 is good to test too. 

thank you for understanding, sorry i come off as a whiny cunt.  i will definantly try everything you suggested, and i look forward to getting it working.

No worries. This is definitely one of the most tedious things to contend with in regards to configuring a plugin. 

Hi. Just purchased this plugin and wondering if anyone knows how to implement the 2-column text similar to what was showcased.

Is it possible to have like a double "welcome screen" 
So go to a default page with some key info. they have to accept. 

then go to standard WP?

Cheers

Would love gathered items at giant excavator to be included in farming. 
or atleast an option to true/false this option. 

with the Discord addons, can you format the incoming text into discord for the stats? 
If so how to change this in data/config files. 
Is there timed announcements to discord via a certain channel? like hourly stats. so a set time also? 

thanks

curious about the same + that top "tab" with the other logo and what looks like clickable social buttons. 
So players dont need to go to social tab. its all clickable from main UI. 

@David Is it possible to put a similar WP template in the default? 
with a icon in the same place and social buttons on the right? 

Thanks

Could somebody give me some guidance as to how I can do the panels like in the showcase template attached?

Also I can't seem to get Kits to work, any suggestions on that too?

Thanks

Your best bet is to join the rust plugin discord and either ask in the community support thread or submit a ticket for David to assist

This new version of the plugin is way better then the old in my opinion , way easyer to configurate , everything in 1 config file ! i love it

anyone else have the icons for the next and previous page arrows missing?

Do you know that these images can be changed by others? just add an imgur url of the arrows that you like and that's it

I can't get my title image to work with v. 3.2.2. I have added the image address under title. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong or what I am missing?

Sure, but these are the default so I thought the developer would want to know

suggestion for adding a poll section for any votes on maps or just general votings, asking the players if they like this or that or adding a question that players can put in a message and it sends something to a set channel on the Discord? could be very helpful
