ServerWelcome
Welcomes players to your server with a customizable message and diplays a custom death message when they die!
More Description
When a player joins your server do you always type "Welcome Back", well no more! ServerWelcome does exactly that for you. Configure your own message to welcome back your players and even a customized message to welcome players to your server for the first time! When a player joins for the first time, it will display your customized message and an optional pre-set message that shows the new player what player he is to have joined the server, e.g. Welcome, name! You are the 56 player to have joined my server!
NEW! ServerWelcome has now implemented death messages! Ever wanted to have custom death messages, but tired of having to download and extra plugin just to do that! Well no more, ServerWelcome has you covered, as now you can customise your death messages, or if you are happy with the default death messsages, then just disable the custom one and enjoy ServerWelcome like normal!

There Is no command to change the customised message. You have to do it from the config.

Posted Dec 31, 2014Hello, I'm having difficulties with trying to setup the "Welcome Description". I am only able to access "/sw" and "/sw offline". You said, under the "Features" column, that you can change the description for the new players. Well, on my server, even when I do "/help ServerWelcome" it only gives me the commands with "/sw" and "/sw offline". What I'm saying is how do you change the "Welcome/Welcome Back" description??

No. Everything following the # signs in the config are only comments! Removing them will result in the plugin failing!
