Chats are made as such:
chat-channels: chatName: command: 'sc' THIS IS REQUIRED prefix: '&8&l[&c&lStaff&8&l]' not required, defaulted to "" auto-format: '&6' this is not required, defaulted to "" show-names: (true/false) This is not required, defaulted to true.
NeoChat v1.5.0 breaks the configs of all previous versions! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Find a bug? Got a suggestion? Leave it in the comments below!
Bugs to Fix:
Quick-messaging into a chat that dosn't have a custom color in the config causes a random space to be added at the beginning of the message.
To Do:
Add a "You Dont Have Permission" message for chats!Implement Auto Updater- Add permissions for some users in a chat to not be auto formatted, or to be auto formatted in a different way based on the config.
Add permisssions for Players to be able to see, but not use chats. (Like announcements)Add a parameter in the config for chats to not show player names (Like announcements)- Add a parameter to the config to enable chats to be toggled for use by someone with permission to toggle them.
- Add a permission that allows a user to toggle chat for use.
Figure out a better way for NeoChat custom commands to be displayed, other than /NeoChat (So that they can be seen in /help)- Think of more flexable additions.

NeoChat is currently looking for a Dev to take over and/or maintain it. This means Updating the page and adding to the code, while keeping me up to date on what is going on with NeoChat. PM me if you are interested (Small Interview Required).

Posted Jun 3, 2014@dakotaaesophThe only way I can think of doing this without tailor making the plugin to exactly your needs is to expand the Auto-Toggle-World-Chat feature so thhat each world has multiple auto toggled chats. A default one and then several sub ones. When a player changes worlds, or logs into a world that has sub-chats, it checks if the player has a special permission (like neochat.subtoggle.bluechat) so that player would be toggled into the bluechat chat... Another feature i wanted to add, tho im not sure if i accidently included it, is having players quickmessage and toggle into normal chat from other chats be re-directed into the default world chat. I was going to do it this update, but i saw 1.7.9 rb come out and i wanted to get the next update out quick. ALSO, I got lazy :P
The lHey thing can already be done btw, the auto-format feature just parses the color codes, and insers it after the space between the name and the message. I've done a chat that would look like "[Twitter]REGAL_MACHINE: #my message here" by making the auto-format '&b#'

On my server. there's teams are separated into Red, Green, Blue and I'd like them to be separated in chat by their team, but also able to chat in a global chat using some character in front of their message like !
So they would be able talk to their team and if they wanted to chat to everyone else they would say something like !Hey everyone.

Posted May 9, 2014World manager that auto puts people into a chat upon entering the world. It would make it much easier. but for admin chat we could still enter in the command and POOF we are in correct? That would also be useful to use if needed.

How would you like this set up? Via a permission to toggle into a chat in each world? Or possibly set up a world manager that auto puts people into a chat upon entering the world unless a player has permission?
I prefer the latter one, currently its what i am going to implement.
THE UPCOMING VERSION OF THIS PLUGIN WILL BE FORMATTED DIFFERENTLY IN THE CONFIGS! THIS WILL BREAK THE OLD CONFIGURATIONS!

You can set up world specific chats by only giving permissions to players in those worlds, yes, but there is currently no way to toggle and restrict a player into a chat channel upon entering a world. I can make this an option, however!

Posted Apr 27, 2014Auto Updater will be implemented in the version. The next version will be worked on after the current version (v1.3.1) is approved. Once the version including Auto Updater is approved, i will begin working on the new features. Follow this post closely, its the only way you'll know when this plugin updates until future versions!
