Have you ever been baffled by just how complicated some announcer plugins are? Do you want really simple per-world, per-group, and even per-permission announcements? Want commands to be run before or after announcements? Well this is the plugin for you!

SimpleAnnouncer only has 1 command with 4 options:

/sa - Displays the help page - SimpleAnnouncer.sa
/sa start - Starts announcements - SimpleAnnouncer.start
/sa stop - Stops announcements - SimpleAnnouncer.stop
/sa reload - Reloads the plugin - SimpleAnnouncer.reload

NOTICE: You need the permission: SimpleAnnouncer.sa to use any of the other options. You can also use the wildcard SimpleAnnouncer.* which gives access to everything

The configuration file for this plugin has become too large to display here. You can find the full configuration file here. There you will also find information about how to use per permission/world/group announcements, as well as information on how to run commands before and after announcements.

You can use all the colour and style codes in the Tag and your Announcements! So all you have to do is add your messages to the Announcements section and let the Plugin do the work.

Finally SimpleAnnouncer V1.9 and Tekkit Edition V1.3 Released!

I sound like a broken record here but, again, it has been a while. Too long. Starting from today SimpleAnnouncer will be receiving at least one update a week. This I can guarantee.

By the end of next week, at the very latest, SimpleAnnouncer version 2.0 will be released. This version will contain absolutely everything in the todo list. Well almost everything. I won't be releasing a Spout version, yet.

@PapiDimmi Ah I've just worked out this error. It was an error with the Shuffle mode. It is fixed with the next update which will be released shortly.

@Pixelmod All those features are scheduled for the update after next (2.0).

@davidp5118 It should do. If not the update it coming soon!

Could you please add a new feature, that allows you to do commands over an interval, just like the announces and add an option for it to announce a message every time it does the command.

This is such an awesome plugin, and i recommend it to anyone who owns a server, its vital!

My server loves it and depends on it, thank you.

Will the current version work with 1.5?

Could you please add the features Announcer have, like &n for 'return' and the ability to use commands?

Is it possible to add a feature for certain groups to be exempt from announcements. I use announcements to advertise ranks, pretty much like every server. However, once a player purchase a rank, the advertisement is pointless. So I was wondering if we can add something like "SimpleAnnouncer.exempt" to groups so those groups will never hear announcements again until they are ranked back down?

When in Shuffle mode, n has a habit of being less than 0, and therefore throwing an error:

@shankomaster @AconitumNapellum It seems to me that this error occurs if you have nothing specified within your announcements. Are you sure the configuration is loading correctly?

@ImminentFire Do any errors come up? Have you tried putting your config through a Yaml Parser?
