Posted Feb 7, 2022Hi, I'm trying to grant these permissions in Luckperms, but I think they're conflicting with Luckperms' own displayname node, which sets the display name of a particular group. For example, when I try to grant displayname.use to the default group, it just sets the name of the default group to "use", instead of granting them a permission.

That shouldn't happen. Can you show how you are adding it?

Posted May 20, 2021question, does this only change the nickname in chat or will it change the name that shows above a players head as well?

Thank you for your question. At this time, the plugin will show the display name in chat, and in the tablist when you press tab. This is because the Bukkit API does not currently have a robust solution for this. In the next update, the plugin will be updated and support this feature.

Posted Jan 10, 2021I made a server in which bedrock players can join our java server. but theres one small error. whenever bedrock players joi, their name starts with an asterisk (*). i was looking for a nickname plugin to change the nickname of the players. the asterisk before the name doesnt allow any commands for the player thus the player is invulnerable to all commands. so if a player's nickname is changed, do commands work with that nickname?

In most cases, it will work. This is because, in Bukkit, there are two ways to get a player by name. The first one is called getPlayer(). This one works with nicknames, and commands that use it will work. The second one is getPlayerExact() which only works when you type the exact username of the player. Since it would have an asterisk, it likely will not work. As a general rule, the first one will be used for most plugin commands, but the second one would be for sensitive commands that require you to type exactly, such as /ban.
Summary: It will work with some commands, but not all commands.

I think a simple answer to the user is something to educate them how to make it work. Try commands first with the players name. If it does not work, surround the players name with "double quotes". It will work (even with these floodgated names).
Cheers

you can go to the config file and change what appears infront of peoples name when they join from bedrock. you cant really run commands on somone from bedrock because they dont have a legitimate uuid

Posted Jan 10, 2021EDIT: I was having a bit of trouble with this, but it was NOT this plugin's fault. I messed up something in my bukkit.yml file. I deleted it for an unrelated reason and when my server regenerated the file, this plugin worked fine.
