Help! Checking a players name when they join

I want it to check the players name so if it is connorkarting then say this server is running fake op but my code wont work?

Code:

        @EventHandler
        public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e){
            Player player = e.getPlayer();
            if(player.getName() == "connorkarting");
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.AQUA + "This server is running Fake Op v1.5 :D");

 

1) Does your class implement Listener
2) Did you register your listener in your onEnable?
3) Don't use == when comparing strings, use .equals or .equalsIgnoreCase

 

I did do number 3 and that didn't work either and I did all the other things

 

So you did getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new MyListener(this), this);?

 

this ?

Code:

    PluginManager pm = getServer().getPluginManager();
    pm.registerEvents(this.PlayerListener, this);

 

Code:java

@Override
public void onEnable() {
Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this,this);
}

That you need.

 

connorkarting
Yeah that works, maybe you messed up the name or something. Try adding a different debug message for whenever someone joins the game, just do player.sendMessage("You joined a server"); or something

 

I will try sionzee code now but i'm not aiming for everyone to see this message. I want it to just be me.

Edit:
I tried the new code, it didn't work, everyone can see the message and thats not what i want

 

connorkarting
Are you used equals || equalsIgnoreCase ?

Code:java

if(playerName.equalsIgnoreCase("connorkarting")) {
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "BLABLABLA");
}

 

Thanks, it worked I don't know what I did wrong.
