Messages yml help

I am trying to make a messages.yml and it's not working.. Like it doesn't load.. I have this on my onEnable()

File file = new File(getDataFolder(), "messages.yml");
if(!file.exists()) saveDefaultConfig();

But it doesn't load and I have it in my folder..

 

doesn't saveDefaultConfig() create a config.yml? use file.createNewFile();

 

Yes.. But it won't save it. Just loads it and it's blank.. And I put in stuff into it..

Simply use saveDefaultConfig(), if you already have a config on your test server, make sure to delete it.

 

So do you want to create a config.yml or a messages.yml?

 

I'm trying to make a messages.yml my config is fine and I can make those!

 

Use the YamlConfiguration class to load the configuration for your messages.yml, it basically provides all the methods of the config.yml, and applies it to a custom file.
