    I'm not sure but it might be that the biome of your island is preventing mobs from spawning. Try changing it to a different biome, such as the plains biome.
    I forget where it is, but do /sb and a menu will pop up, I believe it is in one of the corners.

    Is the spawning platform more than 24 blocks away from the main part of your island?
    Double-check that mob spawning is enabled, or disable it and re-enable it again.
    Is there a cover over the spawning platform (that prevents light from actually going onto the spawn locations)?

    If you cannot get it to work, I'll get you a spawner and set it to the type of mob you want to farm.

    Thank you for the advice however i tried it and it didn't work. I did double check that mobspawning. I also tried to make a platform 24 blocks away but i couldnt do it as i had already filled alot of my main island. I even tried as far as i could go but it still didn't work. You might not be able to see it now since i removed it but thanks again for the tip. The mob that i want to grind is Skeletons.

    I've always thought that maybe the Y level has an affect on natural mob spawning, such as almost everyone builds their mob grinders upwards it means that the Y level is pretty high up in the sky (naturally it would be anyway because the skyblock starter island is already pretty high). Although I am not sure if this is actually the case it's definitely something I have thought about. Perhaps the only option is to use an actual mob spawner to get them to spawn artificially.
