Posted May 1, 2013I am moderator on a server, and we have this plugin. When we protect an area with SafeZone it works fine, however when the block behind it is broken, the sign breaks aswell. This is a type of glitch, and we don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure if it is a problem with your plugin, but if you could fix it, that would be a great help.

Posted Apr 30, 2013@ThaSourceGaming There was never really a chat problem to begin with with what most users have been experiencing in the comments. The [FACTION] string was just replaced with a bunch of more specific strings that have more control. The only chat issue I've experienced is the {faction_relcolor} not functioning. The relationship color it's not displayed. I've been trying to get the developers to fix it.

So let me get this clear. There is currently no fix for the "Chat" problems atm right?

Posted Apr 30, 2013For those of you having chat problems, the chat strings have been changed in the 1.7+ versions of Factions since the past few updates. Instead of using [FACTION], use the following strings: {faction_roleprefix} (Shows the role of that member in the faction) {faction_tag_pr} (Shows the Faction name with a space after it) {faction_tag} (Shows Faction name with no space) There are more I can't think of off the top of my head. However, the factions will not be colored in chat based on their relationship to other factions because the {faction_relcolor} string does not work. I've been trying to notify them to fix this for several updates now but there's never been a response. Hope this helps some people with chat issues.

Posted Apr 30, 2013I too am having problems with chat and essentials, with this latest version of Factions, essentials chat no longer displays the faction tag when [FACTION] is added into the essentials chat formatting, it now just displays the bracketed word FACTION instead of the faction tag.
Additionally the advice given in the factions user guide regarding configuring chat output, is no longer current, as it gives examples to amend lines withing the config, both in game and directly into to the config.json that just simply no longer exist, there are new lines within the config.json that apply to chat tags, but for the life of me I am unable to get them to display properly no matter what I try.
I am using version 1.8.2 of factions
Minecraft 1.5.1
CraftBukkit Beta 1.5.1-R0.2
Essentials-2.10.1
I am also using version 1.8.2 factions with Minecraft 1.5.1
BukkitForge-1.5.1-282
Minecraft Voltz version 1.0.11
Essentials-2.10.1 and this issue is identical with this set up too.
Is there anyone that has managed a work around to this yet?

Posted Apr 30, 2013I've got the same prob. with the chat format. I'm using essentials for my chatformat and when i edit factions to the format like this = '<{FACTION}{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}' It won't display my faction then. It will just display "FACTION" in the chat.
I've got also another problem with the /f declaimall command. /f declaim works but if i use /f declaimall it tells me that im not in a faction but i am.

Posted Apr 30, 2013Im having the same problem. I cant get the faction prefix to work and im running Essentials. I change the format to {Faction} and nothing seems to work it just displays the same in chat. Which version of factions actually supports faction prefix and i would really like this issue to be fixed soon. It used to work just fine but now it doesnt.
