About this project

What does SignEdit add?

This lightweight Minecraft Forge mod allows players to edit placed signs simply by right clicking them while holing a sign in their hand. The sign block is not removed and a sign item is not required. Other than the edit feature, signs are not altered and no additional baggage is included.

Why Use this Mod?

In standard Minecraft, signs must be broken and then replaced. This can be problematic for a many reasons, for example, if the sign is holding back water and you need to change what the sign says. If you want the ability to edit signs, and prefer all other aspects of signs to stay the same, this is the mod for you.

How Does it Work?

To edit a sign, simply right click it while holding a sign to re-open the sign editor GUI.

Modpack Usage

Please feel free to include SignEdit in any modpack. No need to ask for permission.
