Can someone post a video or very detailed description of removing the sound of the pressure plate when stepped on?

The forums would be a better place to ask. This page is for improving the article. --Technoman7 16:36, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

wiring
Is there a way to hide a pressure plate's wiring? All the methods I can think of require one of the 4 cardinal neighbors of the underlying block to be non-solid. IOW, if you had a horizontal square of 9 blocks and put a plate in the middle, how would you draw power from it? Aib 13:49, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


 * All you need is redstone dust underneath the block supporting the pressure plate. This also works for other floor-attached inputs such as levers and detector rails. —KPReid 15:08, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


 * You know, it's kinda embarrassing how simple that was :). Thanks. Aib 00:12, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Wooden Plates and Arrows
I can't get it to work. Am I missing something, or was this behaviour changed? Pic taken on a server running Bukkit (build 1000), MC version 1.7.3. --Vipermagi 18:23, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

On top of a fence
In version 1.8 Pre Release you can now put pressure plates on top of fences. It looks like a little table. Just a small detail I noticed that wasn't possible in 1.7. Rolen47 06:29, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

updated the article to reflect that pressure plates on top of fences now work as pressure plates as of the 1.9 Pre-release 2. 69.7.246.111 01:06, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Could this be a glitch? When the player pushes the pressure plate on top of a fence by walking towards it, there is a chance that the player might fall through solid blocks. It happened to me many times; I fell down through the floor (1-block thick) to the basement of my house. 125.185.118.87 12:22, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Pressure plates in front of double doors (bug?)
Placing two pressure plates in front of double doors will change behaviour of the right pressure plate. When stepped on nothing will happen with right door. When stepped off the right door will open and stays open even if stepped back on plate. EDIT: this has been fixed as of minecraft 1.2.5

Sandstone Pressure Plates and more
Just as the subject suggests, they should make a Sandstone Pressure Plate. It would be very useful for hidden traps, desert temples, and (if they take my advice) Ocean-temple/Atlantis. I also think that there should be wooden pressure plates for all kinds of wood.
