Make sure you have Vault installed!

Description And Features

SimpleChat allows server admins to quickly set up chat prefixes without any hassle that those bigger plugins make... Its straight forward and doesnt have any confusing points. It also comes with lots of extras like die messages, join/leave/kick messages, me formatting, colored chat, curse word censoring, caps preventing, and more! The guide below will take you step by step in configuring your config.yml file. Features:

Provides colored prefixes
Provides colored suffixes
Provides colored chat (Can assign perms for individual color codes)
Provides a user override list (Prefixes and Suffixes set here, will override those in groups)
Provides a default list, if a player's prefix, suffix, and/or group were not found, it will default to these.
Provides a configurable curse word list (stars out any word on this list, if turned on)
Provides a configurable private welcome message to player
Provides configurable public join, leave, and kick messages
Provides configurable broadcast and say messages. Cannot do that with Essentials.
Provides configurable death messages
Provides a caps preventer. Define a maximum number of caps in extra.yml
Provides configuration of the /me command
Provide universal configuration of all PM'ing commands. (/message /msg /m /reply /r /pm /tell /whisper)
You can turn off and on chat (Makes it so players cant chat, only players with permission will be able to chat) Useful in an attack of spammers.
Great PARTYCHAT system
SocialSpy for PMs and PartyChat. Much better than Essential's

@Hotshot2162 I have set modify_chat.enable to false but the SimpleChat output still gets overwritten completely by TownyChat... I need both (SimpleChat + TownyChat) because TownyChat should add town name and such to the SimpleChat message.

Towny isn't exactly my area of expertise, but I know for plugins like Factions (same concept as towny), you have to change a value in the config telling it that another plugin is handling chat and to only replace the {rnvuiemfv} variables.

EDIT: I FOUND IT!! You go into the TownyChat config.yml, and change the "modify_chat.enable:" to false, and then towny will look for aother chat plugin instead of doing everything itself. :)

Yeah, I think it's safe to automatically assume that since you have multiple worlds it'll be whatever multi-world handling plugin you have that's causing the issue :o

That's not SimpleChat :D Im guessing you have Multiverse Installed? Because Multiverse does that. It's in the config for Multiverse.

Hi :) I have a question, it is possible to add configuration option to enable or disable the display of the name of the world before the preffix? That's just for me, an important issue :)

@Hotshot2162 @Hotshot2162: Thank you you helped me a lot :D Great plugin! Keep up the good work :)

But now I need to get it working with Towny Advanced so it displays the Town the player owns is in... How can I do this?

This doesn't seem to work because Towny overwrites everything...
MessageFormat: '{townytag} +pre{townycolor}{townycolor}&7+dname{townypostfix}&f: +msg'

Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah. I am working on code to support translations right now,but it's a complicated process.

Hi :) My intention was more to it that it was possible to adjust the display of error for their own purposes, as inserting the information that it is possible to purchase rights through the server website :)

If you want, I can help with Polish translation because the plugin is worth it, write me a pm if you want :)

Working on the problem, will have a fix in a little. Thank you for reporting it.

@Jakky89

When SimpleChat first started, it used perm nodes for the prefixes/suffixes, but I have since changed that because of complications with inheritance and such. Now, all you have to do is make a list of your groups in the config.yml, and make sure that list matches your list of groups in PermsBukkit, and then set prefixes and suffixes accordingly. For example, if your perms bukkit groups looked like this:

groups: Default: permissions: essentials.compass: true essentials.home: true essentials.list: true essentials.mail.send: true essentials.msg: true essentials.rules: true essentials.sethome: true essentials.spawn: true essentials.tpaccept: true essentials.news: true essentials.info: true essentials.balance: true permissions.build: false simplechat.msg: true simplechat.reply: true Regulars: permissions: essentials.afk: true essentials.help: true essentials.pay: true permissions.build: true simplechat.welcome: true inheritance: - Default Admin: permissions: essentials.*: true simplechat.*: true inheritance: - Regulars

You have three groups, Defult, Regulars, and Admin. You would need to set up prefixes/suffixes for these three groups in the simplechat config. The "Groups" section of the simplechat config.yml file would end up looking something like this:

Groups: Default: prefix: '&f[Default] ' suffix: '' Regulars: prefix: '&7[Regular] ' suffix: '' Admin: prefix: '&4[Admin] ' suffix: ''

Notice how the SimpleChat groups section of the config.yml mirrors the groups that are set in PermsBukkit? Because of this, I dont have to use permnodes like other chat plugins.

Also, I am planning on putting the source on github soon.

@THEr2d2

First of all, your English is just fine :D I would have never noticed that it is not your native language.

I am working to include translation support in coming version, as I have realized that the entire world doesn't revolve around English. As for buying/selling the powers, that can be done through other plugins/services, such as BuyCraft. Those services work by giving a player a Permission Node for a set amount of time. For example, you could set it up so players could go to your online store, and purchase the simplechat.color permission node.

First of all sorry for my english: D

I think the plugin is great but I'd recommend to add one small patch allowing you to change the text in the alert showing a lack of permissions. This could be used for translation errors for a particular language, or add the information that the power can be purchased from the store on the server website :) It would be very useful :) If you want I can then translate your plugin into Polish :)

P.S. It seems to me that the suffix is not working properly, because it duplicates the contents of a prefix instead of showing their own value (1.3.1)

I like this chat plugin because you also can configure things like death, join, leave and kick messages. But how does prefix/suffix in combination with PermissionsBukkit work as it has no direct prefix/suffix configuration nodes? I don't want to use another permissions plugin because PermissionsBukkit is in my opinion the most stable, fastest and simpliest permissions plugin. It would be nice if you could explain that to me how I can get this working (maybe add some extra information in the description about that).

Maybe I am wrong but as I can see in the description (associated commands) it seems to me like some commands of SimpleChat override commands of other plugins (e.g. /me, /tell, /msg). At the moment I am using mChat but I'm not happy with it (because of this fact) so I'm thinking about using SimpleChat instead :)

Also: is it possible to take a look at the source-code (like on github or so)? I like open-source plugins because then I can see e.g. how efficient some things are done. It is one of the decision criterions for me. For example at least since bukkit 1.3.1 asynchronous chat events have been implemented and I don't think that SimpleChat already uses them.
