Glacy Staff Chat

Table of Contents

Having a ingame staff chat has become more or less a must-have for all servers. It allows for quick and easy communication between all staff members that are ingame. Originally meant as a private plugin for the public server I run, I decided to publish it seeing as there aren't many up-to-date, working plugins like this out there. And by the way, if you are wondering what "ho" is, it's a reference to the "helpop" command that many used to use a long time ago when there were no staff chat plugins.

Commands

Command	Description	Permission
/ho <message>	Sends a message in staff chat.	glacy.staffchat
/tho	Toggles speaking in staff chat and global chat.	glacy.staffchat
/hoa <message>	Sends an announcement in staff chat	glacy.staffchat.announce
/gsc	Only typing the command will display general information about the plugin along with its current version. Along with the arguments shown below you can configure the updateChecker and reload the plugin.	(No permission needed)
none	If you have this permission, you will be notified when you join if a new version is available.	glacy.staffchat.update

Arguments for /gsc

Argument	Description	Permission
rl, r, or reload	Reloads the plugin	glacy.staffchat.config.reload
help	Shows arguments available with the player's permissions	none
updater	Shows you what all updater settings are set to	glacy.staffchat.updater
updater (true/false)	Completely enable/disable the updater	glacy.staffchat.config.updater

You could always make an Alias very easily, Via built in bukkit commands.yml or with mycommand.

I would love a copy of this plugin for Donators, an easy donator channel.

Can you make it so that the staff chat command is more appopriate, the /ho doesn't seem to fit the 'staff-chat' plugin. In my opinion, I would have thought that to type in the staff chat, the command would be something like /sc where the S and C is 'staff chat'?

Could you update the plugin so it is like that?

Not sure if this is due to the recent update to the latest spigot, but booting up the server haults for a few seconds loading this plugin, then throws errors during boot and on player join.

Yes there is. I don't understand how you can't see it. When trying to talk with /tho activated, are there any errors in console?

Is "online-mode" in your server.properties file set to true?

I'm running a 1.7 server with spigot on localhost (until I get the funds to publish server) and I have restarted twice, it still shows as red in the plugins list, and /ho does nothing. Gave Moderator, Admin, and Owner groups glacy.staffchat permissions. Using GroupManager.

THANK YOU!!! I love how simple and clean this plug in is. Please keep it that way! So many other options meant changing my whole chat plugin or duplicating functionality. This was the solution I needed.

Thank you for the kind words. All permission nodes are already listed under the Commands and Arguments for /gsc.

Where is the list of permissions? I need to set this for my mods.

EDIT: I found the permission from the comment below: glacy.staffchat Can all permissions be written up and put on the mainpage please?

This is the perfect plugin I was looking for, I love essentials chat and everything else sucked in comparison and needed a lightweight simple staff channel!
