Well, I will add information on codes of colors in the new version.
Now you can see it at MinecraftWiki
But it does not say about the "secret" color - &k
Bug with saving - not a bug.
Maybe I'll explain that bad, or something you do not understand.
A simple example:
/adminhelp new Test
/adminhelp subject bla-bla-bla
/adminhelp save
In this example it was saved into folder /main (bukkitfolder/plugins/McCity Help/main) with name "Test"
Another example:
/adminhelp new Test
/adminhelp subject bla-bla-bla
/adminhelp save test
In this example it was saved into folder /main/test (bukkitfolder/plugins/McCity Help/main/test) with name "Test"
(If the path you specified does not exist, it will be created.)
Thank you for your message.

Nevermind. you don't specify a path when creating a new topic.
Also, it would be nice to provide a color codes chart as I have no idea how to do colors in this.

Posted Jan 26, 2012I'm confused as how to add a new topic.
When you first type /help it shows:
Help topics: About [TOPIC]
Now I wanted to make a new topic for multiverse commands. So I first did /adminhelp new Multiverse. Nothing poped up so I just keep going. Then I named a subject as 'Commands'. Then I saved it by typing /adminhelp save Multiverse
I reloaded the server and I typed /help and it said Multiverse was a subfolder. What did I do wrong and how do I make it a topic?
