Posted Apr 27, 2012I would be happy if you could make it possible to let each message have it own permission node? And each message is sorted by permissions? And let each permission group has its own prefix/tag?
Example for permission: announcer.message.staff.
So, just a suggestion.
announcer.message.staff
Please note that I am bad with stuff like this, and this is just so you (maybe) can understand my suggestion better. If you want to ask me about anything, please send me a PM, and I would love to answer you!
Hope the function will be implemented!
Edit: This plugin is tested with CraftBukkit #2169 (Dev R1.3): MineCraft 1.2.5. And it worked beautifully, so add the version to the list! :)
Edit 2: Maybe change this bit: "AutoAnnouncer - Global announcements every few minutes" to "AutoAnnouncer - Global announcements every x minutes"? So people understand that they can change it? :)

Posted Apr 25, 2012@sharkale31 Thanks for a great plugin! Running on mc.clania.net.
Are you planning to add /announcer reload functionality? When I do edits to settings.yml and /announcer off and /announcer on it just breaks announcer. Currently the only way I have found to get the edits from settings.yml live is to restart the server.

Posted Apr 21, 2012wow a lot of noob that dont know how to write a simple config... xD
people read the yaml rules or stfu. the plugins works, its simple, and all commands work.
if you cant make it work then give the server to someone who know how manage a server.
im a plugins dev. not a supporter, so if you don like this use another plugin.

Posted Apr 19, 2012When the schedule fails with an error, I fix it.
but WHY will it not start again when fixed?
14:09:56 Server: /announcer reload 14:09:57 CONSOLE: [INFO] No schedule running!
Can you make it do this?
14:09:56 Server: /announcer reload 14:09:57 CONSOLE: [INFO] No schedule running, restarting schedule! 14:07:51 CONSOLE: [INFO] Settings Loaded (5 announces). 14:07:51 CONSOLE: [INFO] Scheduled every 4 minutes! 14:07:51 AutoAnnouncer: Scheduled every 4 minutes!

Posted Apr 19, 2012Hi, I wrote some Messages there but it says still the example messages. If you type in /announce on or /announce restart it says: " No schedule running!" and " Scheduling failed! There are no announcements to do." Here are the settings: http://pastie.org/3816280 . I don't know the Problem I checked it with YAML-Parser but it says that the Symbol "&" is wrong.
It would be very nice If you could help me :)

Posted Apr 16, 2012Hi there,
I'm getting some formating problems, I guess with Bukkit's wordwraping. For example, I have a line with "bold" and "itatic" formating. If that line is too long to display on a single line, it looses some of the formats on the second line. I can post some screenshots if you don't know what I mean.
Regards, John
