    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Main City Server
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Selling 2+ specific items with /sell.
    What are you suggesting:
    Being able to sell two or more items (by name) with a single /sell command.
    Multiple items would be separated with a delimiter such as a space or comma.
    e.g. '/sell Cobblestone, Stone, Dirt' or '/sell Cobblestone Stone Dirt'
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Saves time spent tediously typing '/sell ...' multiple times in order to clear junk from your inventory.

    For instance - when mining, selling junk (cobblestone, dirt, gravel, granite, diorite, andesite, flint, glowstone) would take 8+ commands.

    I think it would be extremely convenient (without offering a significant advantage) to have a method to achieve the same result with a single command that could be copy/pasted.
    Other information:
    I believe this would be relatively easy to implement using string concatenation and splitting. Takes minimal effort with a big impact!
    Plugin or custom addition:
    No additional plugin needed, perhaps just a few lines of code added to the plugin that handles /sell.
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    Sounds like you need /pt tools! While it may not exactly meet your requirements, I promise it will make your life so much easier ;)

    I have PT, although I do not think it is possible to assign it to more than one command.. is it?

    I don't think so, however, all you are doing is clicking to sell and not typing in anything anyway...literally a split second for multiple items sold.
    Not to mention that as sami points out above, many denials for just this type of suggestion.

    Not really a split second considering you have to take the time to organize your inventory/hotbar in such a way to do that method.
    Nonetheless, it's not really about 'saving 30 seconds' but more about convenience and a less tedious process.

    Ahh, it's a shame. I should have figured players have requested this already (probably for a reason...)
    I disagree that it would be 'development hours' -- I have a background in coding.. this really needn't take that long to implement..
    Split input string into array --> run for loop on that array --> run the SAME sell function for each item in the array.

    Anyways, the man may have better things to be implementing I suppose, so I'll leave it at that.

    Perhaps suggest multi sell as a paid for feature. it is about ease not playability.

    This requires far too much work due to the way our Essentials version is developed.
    Won't happen until we do a full blown plugin revamp, something that is simply not scheduled for any time in the near future.
