    Requesting a way to display more than just the primary group's prefix. I'm trying to make the jump from PEX but I really liked that it displayed prefixes and suffixes from sub-groups. It only showed 1 prefix if there were more than one between all current groups.

    In this example the player belongs to both Group A and Group B.

    Group A (Primary)
    No Prefix

    Group B (Sub-group)
    Prefix: "Lvl.1"

    Displays the following in chat: "Lvl.1 <Player>: Hello world"

    Group A (Primary)
    Prefix: "[Mod]"

    Group B (Sub-group)
    Prefix: "Lvl.1"

    Displays the following in chat: "[Mod] <Player>: Hello world"

    The primary group would of course take priority over what is displayed as the prefix if there are more than one.

    When I say sub-group I mean it just isn't the primary group. I'm not referring to inherited groups. Let me explain myself a little more.

    I have a system where players are promoted on a ladder named "Level" that has a prefix showing that level. For example, the group Lvl1 has the prefix "Lvl.1". I also have a way for players to change their class. When doing this, their primary group changes to a class such as a Rogue. Rogues have a color set to yellow. I need a way to show their color from the primary group as well as the prefix from the group on the "Level" ladder.

    Their level is based on their mcMMO power level in case you were wondering. Setting up RogueLvl1,RogueLvl2 is not ideal for this situation because when they switch groups they lose their spot on the ladder.

    Would like to add a further suggestion that relates to this: displaying multiple prefixes from multiple groups you are in (in my case involving groups in separate ladders, not sub-groups, but either way), with an option for some kind of ordering.

    Taking the previous example into account... Group A (Group on Permissions Ladder) Prefix: "[Mod]" Prefix-Order: 1

    Group B (Group on RPG Ladder) Prefix: "Lvl.1" Prefix-Order: 2

    Displays the following in chat: "[Mod] Lvl.1 <Player>: Hello world"
