Experience Mod plugin configuration help please

[ChrisB]

So I'm tinkering around with a private server hosted on a local machine, just to learn how to operate and maintain my own server so that one day in the future I can host my own dedicated server that doesn't suck.

So this is the first time I've tinkered with a configuration file, and the experience mod seemed to be easier to configure than permissions so I'm starting off here.

This is what I've come up with so far and I'd like to hear people's thoughts on why it will/will not work. Where did I go wrong and how do I fix my mistakes? While this thread is up I will load the configuration file onto my server and continue to tinker with it to try to learn this on my own as well.

Looks good. Everything should work at the levels that you expect it to. :D

Well I copied this into the config.yml file but I have not seen any changes to gaining experience from mining or crafting. Perhaps it is because I didn't completely clear out the text file, i just copied and pasted the code into the appropriate place. I will continue to tinker!

[Admiral Obvious]

Well, if you copied and pasted the vanilla code, then of course you are going to get vanilla outputs. That mod is essentially in 1.3 so, yuo are getting vanilla outputs with that config.
