Posted Nov 5, 2013What happens if two LAN players (who share the same external ip-address) view the MOTD?
Also: Can you add another %p mode where it shows the name of the player who joined the server for the last time?
Thanks :-)

also, when I restart or reload the server a bunch of times, it stops updating the config and reverts to original

Using the command /advancedmotd configreload reloads the config file in the folder but replaces it with the IP file instead of our updated config file. We lose all changes we made and yeah... it becomes the IP file

You can configure that in the essentials config.yml where it says command override

Posted Jul 17, 2013Why does this dumb thing keep putting itself back to the default download? Everytime I save it with notepad PlusPlus it just reverts when I /reload and then go into the config file.

Posted Jul 16, 2013Hey, thanks for your comments!
In the new version 1.1.0, I added a function to reload the config file, removed the command alias "motd" and fixed a bug. It will be available soon :)

Posted Jul 15, 2013Nice but you should remove the /motd command and make people use /advancedmotd or /amotd cause /motd bypasses the one from essentials. WEll, Is there any way to make it so it doesnt bypass it ? Liketo keep my /motd command . What I mean by anyway. Like anyway for me. WIthtout you editing the plugins..

Posted Jul 14, 2013This is great and awesome! i am using it on my server and is lightweighted! It could be better if you can add a reload function? So that it will only reload the plugin instead of the server?
Bugs:
When you try to the motd list is empty and you try to delete something that is not there. It will trigger error.
