    ColorMe - Add color to player names
    Version: v3.8.1

    <font color="#ff0000">BukkitDev: Click!</font>

    Description

    This plugin aims to modify the chat with colors, prefixes and suffixes.
    You can set the color/prefix/suffix for individual players or create groups and add players to them.
    There are several supported third-party plugins and other supported things like Spout or an economy system.

    It's a rebirth of ColorMe and Prefixer from @Valrix
    I'm happy to hear about your opinion, just leave a comment with a feature request, bug, improvement or just a personal opinion.

    As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom)

    Typical_Name

    Is there a way I can use both the "magic" color and have it be colored (say, red), or is colored magic unsupported?

    xGhOsTkiLLeRx

    You can use it in the prefixes, in the name coloring no.
    Unless you use the dev version.
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/26476995/ColorMe_dev.jar

    You can define own colors there.
    Just add something like this in the colors.yml

    magic-red: &c&k
    Would make the name red & random!

    Can i set prefix "This is a prefix" Two or more words? And what about russian words?
     
  10. Offline

    xGhOsTkiLLeRx

    I'm not sure about russian letters/words, best would be: try it out...
    (I can't really fix any issuses in SnakeYML)

    You can make only one word long prefixes... Because an additional word is the argument for the worldname.

    Artem-s86

    Maybe you can set multi-words prefix by ""?
    Example:
    /prefix me "prefix with some words" [world]

    IdealIdeas

    I tried to use the new support for multi color names and it gave me an internal error.

    I did /color me Dark_Red-Dark_Green and i tried /color me &4-&2 and neither work, i just get an internal error.
    Also if I try to keep using the same command over and over a few times it says "You have already got this color in this world"
    I even tried just 1 color and I got the same results. Other players cant use it either.

    Here is the error I get when I try to change colors:

    Hello!
    I just updated to ColorMe version 3.5 and now the colors won't work in chat or above my head. I installed TagAPI, set the config option playerTitleWithoutSpout to true, and reloaded the server. All I get is non-ops are colored white, while ops are colored red in the chat list. In the Tab menu, the new colors show up. Please fix in the next update! Thanks,

    Are you using any other chat plugins?
     
  27. Hmm, for some reason I can't get this to work properly
    What I wanted was it to automatically get the prefix (where I defined the groups color) from bPermissions.
    I use HeroChat, and have the softMode enabled, yet nothing works except if I manually add the color to the player in the players.yml file.

    Here is my config:

    Well, I'm using essentials chat

    Than prefixes and suffixes won't work. You can try to disable the softMode (set it to false), but it might not work.
    If you turn change-Displayname in the essentials config.yml to false, the name coloring will work.
