StatusShift

Online status and search comment, shifted by place, job, and clock. Built on Dalamud.

Important

StatusShift is no longer supported. It has been replaced by Starflow. Starflow sets online status, search comment, and commands by place, job, and schedule, plus more. Install it from the Shadowstar catalog.

Bring your rules over: in StatusShift Settings, click Copy All to Clipboard (or Code on one rule). In Starflow, click Import, pick StatusShift, and paste. Rules come in off.

StatusShift stays here for reference. It is not updated and is no longer listed in the Shadowstar catalog.

What it does

Rules change your online status, optional search comment, and optional slash commands from zone, housing, duty, job, character, and schedule. Highest priority matching rule wins. Nothing runs on the title screen or character select.

Features

• Rules by place and job: world, data center, zone, zone group, house / apartment / FC apartment, duty, job and role.
• Schedule: Always, Daily, Weekly, or One Time. Days S M T W T F S.
• AND / OR / NOT chips: state, status, mount, emote, accessory, chat, tell-from, nearby player, contains, regex.
• Then set: online status, command / macro, 60-character search comment (typed or a template).
• When it stops: Revert (default) or Keep.
• Handling: Notifications, Selector, Auto, or Off.
• Share: one rule as SS1. code or JSON. Shift-protects replace, archive, and wipe.

Install

For new setups, install Starflow instead.

The last StatusShift build is still in Releases. To install it anyway, add this repo's own link under /xlsettings → Experimental → Custom Plugin Repositories, then install Status Shift from /xlplugins. Open with /ss.
