Simple Prefix: Allows you to easily manage your chat with prefixes and suffixes.
This plugin uses prefixes and suffixes that are very easy to configure, from inside of an yml config file. You apply prefixes and suffixes per user or group in the /SimplePrefix/config.yml file.
Alternatively, Simple Prefix can be configured to get the prefixes and suffixes from Vault supported chat plugins instead (PermissionsEx, bPermissions, etc.)
You can fully alter the chat format. For example, you could achieve the following ingame:
- [Admin] Flabaliki: my message here
Or even, just completely mix and match the template to get the look you want.
A developer API is available to those who wish to access prefixes and suffixes and use them within their own plugin. Click "Metadata" above.
That's basically what this is, just a lightweight plugin for quickly getting your prefixes and suffixes to work, however you want.
Read the Configuration page for instructions on how to use the plugin.
Features:
- Uses permissions to apply prefixes and suffixes to selected users or groups.
- Alternatively, can use prefixes and suffixes from plugins supported by Vault.
- Formatting/color codes are fully supported.
- Configure the chat format to display however you want.
- Developer API for fetching prefixes and suffixes.
- Easy to use commands for adding / removing prefixes in game.
- Set prefixes and suffixes per group or per user.
- Plays nicely with Essentials /nick command.
- Option to allow multiple prefixes / suffixes, and a configurable separator which is placed between them to separate them.
- A prefix or suffix tier system (so that you can make multiple ranking ladders).
- UUID support
- Offline mode server support (using usernames instead of UUIDs)
- Factions chat tags support (read our Configuration page)
Installation:
- Place Simple Prefix.jar into your plugins folder
- Restart or reload your server
- Edit your config.yml (see here for info)
Please carefully read the Configuration page!

This is the best chat plugin I've ever used, I don't think any features need to be changed. I'm just really looking forward to compatibility with the newest minecraft update. Keep up the good work!

Posted Nov 10, 2012I tried using the commands in-game on console aswell it just takes me to the plugin link, is this a bug or something?
And is there a way I can give a player a group in-game or on console, instead of using the config.

Posted Nov 7, 2012I was wondering if in the 1.4 version, you could make defaults and ranks in the config, so that new players were automatically set a color and title
Thanks!

Posted Nov 5, 2012Hey, can you possibly add Factions support? Love the plugin, but for the 1.6.9 version of Factions, the Faction tags override the prefixes, so chat only has the Faction and the username of a player. When I disable Faction tags, the prefixes show up fine with colors and everything. Could you do this? Thanks.

This plugin still works fine with 1.4, it is running on my server on 1.4 just fine. There will not be a proper update / fix of this plugin for a week or so yet. I finish my final exams this thursday, and after that, I have all the time in the world to fix this baby up! Sit tight :)
