These commands work great for me for `GreetingEnabled`, `GreetingMessage`, and I tested the array operations with `BackupItems` to make sure that wasn't the problem. \r\n\r\nBut when I try: `/admin settings GreetingItem`\r\n\r\nI get: `Server: Getting Value(s) for Setting: GreetingItem` and then a blank line. No description of the current values, but no warnings I'm using it incorrectly either. \r\n\r\nI've tried accessing the values as `GreetingItem.Enabled`, `GreetingItem.0`, `GreetingItem.1`, `GreetingItem.0.Enabled`, etc, nothing. None of the array operations return an error or a success message.\r\n\r\nWhat are the proper chat commands to set this setting's values?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/SEServerExtender/EssentialsPlugin/issues/comments/95576946","html_url":"https://github.com/SEServerExtender/EssentialsPlugin/issues/17#issuecomment-95576946","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/SEServerExtender/EssentialsPlugin/issues/17","id":95576946,"user":{"login":"DigTron","id":12019546,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/12019546?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron","html_url":"https://github.com/DigTron","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DigTron/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-23T13:00:27Z","updated_at":"2015-04-23T13:00:27Z","body":"Strange, works fine for me on 5 servers using dodex's extender/esssentials and has done for weeks...and before using dodex's too.... there was a breif spell when the chat handler was skrewy (and so greeting was not working) but I think that was fixed by Tyrsis and Dodex individually... was around the time vrage.common.dll was dropped.\r\n\r\n I think your problem is with the chat commands. Are the settings changes showing in the xml file ?\r\n\r\nTry altering the settings xml in a text editor if you dont have access to the gui, and upload to your server or ask your host to place the file. You will need to reset the server or reload the plugin (bad idea?) for the changes to be read by essentials...\r\n\r\nAlso if you edit the xml directly and then attempt to change a setting via gui or chat command your changes will be overwritten.\r\n\r\nHere is a copy of my settings from one of the servers.\r\n\r\n \t\t\t  <RestartWhenUnresponsive>true</RestartWhenUnresponsive>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingEnabled>true</GreetingEnabled>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingMessage>yadda yadda yadda</GreetingMessage>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingPublic>false</GreetingPublic>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingItem>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Enabled>true</Enabled>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Title>READ FIRST - FIND CONTENTS BELOW</Title>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Header>yadda yadda yadda</Header>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Contents>yadda yadda yadda \r\n\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t </Contents>\r\n\t\t\t\t<ButtonText>HAPPY HUNTING</ButtonText>\r\n\t\t\t  </GreetingItem>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingNewUserMessage>!!-Type /motd for info at any time</GreetingNewUserMessage>\r\n\t\t\t  <GreetingNewUserItem>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Enabled>true</Enabled>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Title>READ FIRST - FIND CONTENTS BELOW</Title>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Header>yadda yadda yadda</Header>\r\n\t\t\t\t<Contents>yadda yadda yaddda\r\n\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t</Contents>\r\n\t\t\t\t<ButtonText>HAPPY HUNTING</ButtonText>\r\n\t\t\t  </GreetingNewUserItem>\r\n\t\t\t  <BackupEnabled>true</BackupEnabled>\r\n\r\n"}}
