ColorMe
ColorMe - Add color to player names
Version v3.8.1
Old forum link: Click!
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 used TabConfig and worked fine.
You need to use {displayname} to use the color.
{fillplayers} however is uncolored, but this is not on my end, to fix this ;)
To sum it up, worked fine for me!

So a new plugin/api recently came out. TabAPI as well as TabConfig. They work to alter the way players see the tab list with custom messages. It works beautifully, but not with ColorMe. When i load it up with ColorMe it alters the format by, i think, over lapping it. It doesnt throw any errors or what have you. Well what i wanna know is if theres a hook in threw the config that i missed. If not then do you think it'd be possible to hook the way ColorMe alters the tabs list into TabAPI/TabConfig or would i have to ask its author about hooking into you.

Your username contains 15 characters, so no chance, sorry
@Blenzup
Have you granted the permissions you need to color a name?

At the moment no, I might implement a more detailed color check.
