Prefix's aren't showing? PEX/ChatManager

The chat shows up like this:
<HighCloudmc> Hello, we're a new server!

When it should show as: [Owner]Highcloudmc: Hello, we're a new server!

Any help would be appreciated.

ChatManager config file:

Code:

Lang: en
ChatPermissions: 'true'
TimeFormat: HH:mm
Joinmessage: '&3%player% joined the game'
Leavemessage: '&3%player% left the game'
Kickmessage: '&3%player% has been Kicked Reason: %reason%'
ChatFormat: '%prefix%player%suffix'
CustomKickMessage: '&7[&eChatManager&7] <newline> &4ConnectionLost <newline> &e%player%
  You Have been kicked resaon %reason%'
BlockDomainADS: 'true'
BlockIPADS: 'true'
PokePerms: 'true'

 

To get the prefix you have to

/pex group [groupname] prefix [prefix]
Ex. /pex group owner prefix "&8[&bOwner&8]&7"

To get the ':' instead of '<>' you need to modify essentialschat.

Open the config.yml in the essentials folder, and hit CTRL+F to find, and search for

Below that you should see

Change that to

 

I don't have essentialschat, just chat manager. Should put essentialschat in too?

 

No need to install EssentialsChat, you need to just add %prefix before %player.

 

I have changed the prefix of group owner from in-game but it still shows as; <name> texthere

I've done that, it's still showing the vanilla format, other than my red name because I'm op'd. This is really frustrating ...

You may want to do what I said with ChatManager while the server is down, when doing that check your permissions.yml to see if the prefix: '[Owner]' (or whatever) is there properly. Then start the server up, that should make for less problems. Also, chatmanager needs this setting set to work:

 

I don't have that option in my chatmanager config. Here's what my config looks like

Code:

Lang: en
ChatPermissions: 'true'
TimeFormat: HH:mm
Joinmessage: '&3%player% joined the game'
Leavemessage: '&3%player% left the game'
Kickmessage: '&3%player% has been Kicked Reason: %reason%'
ChatFormat: '%prefix%player%suffix:&7%message'
CustomKickMessage: '&7[&eChatManager&7] <newline> &4ConnectionLost <newline> &e%player%
  You Have been kicked resaon %reason%'
BlockDomainADS: 'true'
BlockIPADS: 'true'
PokePerms: 'true'

 

How odd, I am not familiar with that config for chatmanager. Is this the one that comes with the PEX package?

 

Umm honestly I forget, I may have downloaded it from my server panel.. There's a option to download plugins directly from the panel. Should I delete chat manager and manually install?

 

I would recommend you don't install using the panel and just download the plugins manually then install them yourself. I've written your ChatManager config.yml for you. Download the latest PermissionsEx package here: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/permissionsex/files/17-permissions-ex-v1-19-6-package/

 

Thank you so much, got it all working. Except one tiny thing. How do I get the ":" to be the color of the prefix/name? I can only find out how to change it to one color, not match each ranks color.

example: [Owner]HighCloudmc: Welcome to the server guys!

 

You'll need to put this instead
