How to import an existing item
ItemJoin allows you to easily import existing items, with a neat ingame GUI. In the following tutorial, I will explain how to accomplish this with step-by-step examples. (Note: Some plugin-specific items might not work when being imported. If that is the case, please contact us. If your plugin is paid and/or does not have an API however, please reach out to the author of the plugin in question instead and he can contact us if needed.)
To start with importing your item you need to log into your Minecraft server. Once you are in, you need to have the item in your inventory, and then use the command /ij menu. A GUI will open up, which should look like this:
This is the ingame GUI. Here you can not only import items, you can also create them or edit parts of your config.yml file. Right now however, you will want to click on the hopper item called "Save".
Doing so, opens up yet another new GUI, with only a hopper present.
Drag & Drop your item into the hopper, like seen here.
This will result in yet another GUI to open.
From here, you need to select if you want the item to be given into one inventory slot (glass) or multiple (dispenser). For this tutorial we are going to select the single slot glass item. Feel free tough, to try the other if you need to.
Now that we have clicked on the glass item, we are presented with (you guessed it) a fourth GUI!
This is the interace where you will select in which inventory slot ItemJoin should give the custom item. The dark blue glass panes at the bottom represent the quickbar slots, while the light blue glass panes represent the inventory slots. And the first row are the spcial slots in your inventory, like the offhand or armor slots. Select a slot of your choice to continue.
The last GUI will pop up. This is the heart of the ItemJoin GUI.
If you want you can play around with everything you see here. You can configure almost any feature of ItemJoin in this interface, such as itemflags or triggers. Simply hover over an item to see what it does. When you're ready to finish, click the green wool at the bottom of the GUI to save your custom item to the items.yml file. ItemJoin will automatically reload itself for you, as soon as you save it. Now you are ready to be given your newly added item.
Please see the documentation page if you need any help with these new updates!
