    Tips - periodic server messages:
    Version: v1.1

    BukkitDev project page

    This plugin will allow you to set custom messages to be broadcasted by the server periodically.
    A similar plugin with more features is rTriggers.

    Features:
    • Global, per-world and per-group (via permissions) tips
    • Use colour codes on your tips
    • Different sets of tips with different periods
    • Show tips randomly or sequentially
    • Configurable in settings file (plugins/Tips/config.yml)
    • /tips reload command to reload the config file, available to ops or users with "tips.reload" permission, if Permissions is installed
     
    Yvar, TurtlePatrol and Kingjarrad like this.

    hello, thanks for your plugins it work well, but something is missing, the ability to send messages to one or more group.
    i wanted to use it to repeat the rules to guest and newbuilder groups :)
    advancedbuilder, moderator and admin groups don't need to recieve those messages.

    thanks ;)

    Alright this is the best tips plugin I could find so I would really like to get it working. I created the folder Tips and put the config.yml inside copied everything from the example config here and put it inside, restarted the server, and when I try to use the reload command it says it's an unknown console command, and it never displays any tips. What could be the problem?

    Oh nice,
    a mysql support would be great! So if you have an WebSite you can do the "tips" from the website with a php script into the mysql database and it would be very easy to control. Maybe you can add a mysql support if not its pity but no problem :)

    Wanted a plugin exactly like this for a while, wish I found it sooner!
     
  13. This plugin is perfect, simple, and effective. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a simple tip/message sender that's easy to manage but also provides world specific messages. Other competing plugins can be harder to maintain/complicated or just does more than the user needs. Been using it on my server for over a month now and I'm happy with the results.

    It will work if you put quotes around every tip.
