• Recovers from leavers - Restores job restrictions when party members leave
• Customizable job slots - Override which jobs can join each party slot

How to Use

1. Open AutoPartyFinder

   • Type /apf in chat to open the plugin window
   • Go to the "Auto-Renewal" tab

2. Enable Auto-Renewal

   • Click "ENABLE AUTO-RENEWAL" button
   • The plugin now monitors your listing and prevents the 60-minute timeout

3. Set up your Party Finder listing as normal

   • Open Party Finder and configure your recruitment (duty, description, job requirements)
   • Click "Recruit Members" to start - this saves your settings automatically

4. That's it! The plugin runs in the background:

   • Automatically renews your listing every 55 minutes
   • Restores job slots when party members leave
   • You can close the Party Finder window - recruitment continues
   • Check the "Status" tab anytime to see party information

Features

Auto-Renewal

Keeps your Party Finder listing active indefinitely by refreshing it every 55 minutes, just before the 60-minute expiration.

Party Recovery

When someone leaves your party:

• Automatically restores the job restrictions for empty slots
• Continues recruiting without manual intervention

Job Override

Change job requirements without restarting recruitment:

• When you start recruiting, the plugin saves your original job settings
• Use Job Override to modify requirements mid-recruitment (e.g., need a different healer type)
• Important: This overrides your saved settings - disable it to return to original requirements
• Enable in the "Job Override" tab and configure per slot
• Supports role groups (All Tanks, Pure Healers, Barrier Healers, etc.)

Requirements

• You must be the party leader or solo
• Keep the plugin running while recruiting
• Party Finder window can be closed - the plugin works in the background
