Votifier Troubleshooting

Use a testing service such as https://mctools.org/votifier-tester (or the actual voting website) and do a test vote. Even though it may say that it successfully sent a test vote doesn't mean it's working properly. When doing a vote you will receive a message in console similar to this:

[19:01:21] [Votifier I/O/INFO]: [VotifierPlus] Debug: Received vote record -> Vote (from:SERVICESITEHERE username:BenCodez address:Address timeStamp:TestVote)
[19:01:21] [Server thread/INFO]: [VotingPlugin] Received a vote from service site 'SERVICESITEHERE' by player 'BenCodez'!

SERVICESITEHERE text is what you set the service site in the votesites.yml for that specific site, so the plugin knows which votesite to link to what. Make sure this is done correctly or rewards may not work as expected

If you get this message, then your good to go. If you don't set the service site on a votesite the plugin will autogenerate the votesite for you.

If you don't, here are some things to try:

• Verify votifier is running on an open ip/port (port is not in use, common on shared hosts), may need to contact your host for this
• No firewall or something blocking connections outside of the network
• Some cases deleting the RSA folder and generating new keys fixes the issues

The above methods are from experience and are the most common solutions. There could be other solutions as well, really varies on your specific setup.

Please note, unless you get the specific message above VotingPlugin will not function, don't blame this on VotingPlugin
