# Easy BlueMap Sign Markers<\/p>\n
The idea is simple – you put a sign in the game, and you can see it on your BlueMap.<\/p>\n
This plugin is a fork of and old, no longer maintained solution – BlueMapSignMarkers – introducing some simplification and quality-of-life tweaks, as compared to the original source.
\nThe goal was to make it usable in as little steps as possible, and as easy as possible for players to understand how to use it.<\/p>\n
Compatible with Spigot \/ Paper \/ Folia \/ Purpur. No other software compatibility (e.g. Fabric) is planned, as there are already similar, and good solutions for those.<\/p>\n
## Setup
\nYou need to have **BlueMap** installed on your server. The plugin depends on it.
\nIf you already have **BlueMap**, put the jar file into `plugins` folder on your server… and that’s it!<\/p>\n
## How to use
\nPlace any sign in the game. Fill the sign as follows:<\/p>\n
– **1st line**: `[marker_icon_name]` (please see [Marker names](#marker-names) for available name tags)
\n– **2nd line:** text
\n– **3rd line:** text
\n– **4th line:** text<\/p>\n
**Note:** after adding the marker, the first line will change to `> marker <` in order to indicate that the given sign acts as marker. The intention here is to ensure players will not remove markers by accident.\n\nFirst line **MUST** be filled. If the 1st line does not contain a valid name, but still the brackets `[` and `]` are being used - the fallback value will be assigned - `[map]` - and marker will be created anyway.\nFrom the following 3 text-oriented lines, at least one must be non-empty. If all are empty, marker will not be created. Assumption here is, that the marker **needs** a description.\n\n## Example\nBelow example will create marker on your map with `star` icon assigned.\n\nFirst, you build the sign\n\n\n\nAfter you complete it, the first line will switch to `> marker <`. This indicates, that placing the marker was successful.\n\n\n\nAfter a while, you will see the marker on your BlueMap\n\n\n\nAnd when you click it - the popup containing your sign description will appear\n\n\n\n## Marker names\nYou can find detailed marker configuration options in the Github Documentation - Marker Names\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
