EasyPM
Sick and tired of typing /msg playername message?! Yeah, me too!
EasyPM simplifies the way we send messages to each other. No more typing in full names and commands!
Thanks to http://techhut.us/
Usage and Commands
Depending on the config a player need to enable EasyPM first. This is easily done with the command /epm. The same command is used if a player doesn't want to use EasyPM.
Send PM
Start your chat message with an @ and directly followed by a part of the players name you want to sent a message to.
@dadae Hey man! How you doing?!
The message is sent to the player online whose name starts with "dadae". If more players than one is found the message will cancel.
Send repeat PM
Are you chatting with someone? Have you messaged them before with the Send PM command?
@ And here is some more text!
Just type @ followed with a space and then you message.
Reply to PM
New to version 1.2 is replying to PMs.
@@What you want?
Just type two @'s followed by your message. No need for a space between at signs and your message.
Lock PM
Use the command /lockpm to send all your chat messages to the person you've last whispered. Unlock with the same command.
Config
The config has some options to adjust the colors of the messages. Also it can set if EasyPM is default on or off for new players. After starting the plugin for the first time it will create a default config file.
Also you can enable/disable logging to console and logging to HawkEye.
Colors
These are the colors you can choose.
- black
- dark_blue
- dark_green
- dark_aqua
- dark_red
- dark_purple
- gold
- gray
- dark_gray
- blue
- green
- aqua
- red
- light_purple
- yellow
- white
Log PMs to console
For obvious purposes some server owners want to log all traffic to the console log. For them I've made the following option in the config.
EasyPM: LogChat: true
Default this setting will be set to false.
Compatibility with other plugins
CommandBook
This plugins also uses the "@playername" chat command. To disable this change the config of commandbook.
twitter-style: false
Metrics
EasyPM uses a service called Metrics by Hidendra. This will send anonymous data about the usage of this plugin to a website so we developers can monitor how much our plugins are being used. To opt out of this or if you want more information about this please visit: https:github.com/Hidendra/metrics.griefcraft.com/tree/master/Bukkit

I would like it to be enabled by default (removing the /emp command) and updated to latest bukkit version and finally you prefix your message with # and it becomes and operator chat example:
Thanks yes still interested. No need new features just pls make it bug free and working with new RB
For anyone still interested. I've updated the plugin. Sorry for the lack of updates but I'm just too busy at the moment.
But hooray! What an update :)
It has now HawkEye support. Every PM can be logged in HawkEye. It will be under the "Other" category.
Also it fixed compatibility with other plugins by using the new Chat Event system.
This still works, but will it be updated in the future? It's a awesome plugin! Btw i would love customizable prefixes.
hey man, really like your plugin I've got an rpg server, and we use chatmanager with ranged mode (250 blocks). can you add to the config a ranged whisper mode? with numbers (blocks) and enable/ disable? and a security command to see / spy the pms? because sometimes we have griefers.
Lol I made a plugin exactly like this forever ago...
I installed it, but only i can send PMs... What are the permission nodes? It just doesn´t work for default players.
<3 this :D
I've added a video made by http://techhut.us about EasyPM.
@kahlilnc
Thanks! The concept came from me being lazy ;)
OH yay awesome concept. :D
If your using CommandBook and have problems please read the plugin compatibility section.
Nice, great support :)
Tonight I will upload a new version of EasyPM.
It's ready for the new release of Bukkit and now has the option to reply to PMs.
@dadaemon
Awesome news, and a great plugin :)
@funk1983
Yes it will :)
Will this be updated for r5?
For anyone still looking at this plugin. This weekend is Bukkitmas so if you have any requests for this plugin you can create a ticket and I will look into it!
We use this plugin on my server, along with ChannelChat and SimplePrefix. It works perfectly and I highly recommend this plugin. It's only a small, simple feature but on a large(ish) server like mine and being a busy admin I get so many private messages, the /r is just failing me because I keep sending messages to the wrong people!
The ability to lock me into chat with someone and to autofill their name really helps here.
By the way, hey barry, its Lars ;)
@BioRage
Because of the simplicity of this plugin it should (as far as I know) not interfere with other plugins.
