I'm doing this for literally nothing in my freetime, so keep me interessted in my plugins and help pay my bills by simply donating a few bucks.
Thanks in advance!

Doesn't seem to work, is it updated for the RB?
i should make the extentions optional
@Galexrt
You have to add your announcements file names into the cfg folder:
It doesn't generate the file names into the config file automatically, you have to do it manually as shown above. Also don't need the file extension after the names. (Ex: "a1.txt" "a1")
@QuickWango
Clash i mean, that messages aren't sent at the same time.
And for first time join, yes, but not with delay option :( And I have mcMMO, SimpleClans, mChat, so those already say things when you join, so there HAS to be a delay for the join message
Hey Quick Wango i have a problem with the announcements. Also when i put the .txt files in the announcements folder, and restart the server.. then there is again no announcement in the config. But if i use the ingame command then it will be displayed. What did i wrong? On server start always show this up: 07:25:49 [INFO] [Announcer] Announcer (v1.2.0) enabled 07:25:49 [SEVERE] [Announcer] No announcements found! and the config is: interval: '15' instantStart: false debug: false directory: plugins/Announcer/announcements announcements: [] i have tried to put the announcements manually to announcements:. But nothing happened. Please demonstrate it how to use a bit better. Yes i know im a noob.(I know you from PU) Have a nice day!
@Adonum
I won't every put the messages inside the configuration, because that's the reason I made the plugin.
I'm not sure what you mean with this:
"so they won't clash(as mentioned before) because of a miscalculation"
The firstjoin message may be added, although there are already plugins for that
Perhaps its already in here, am not the best bukkit user. But is there a way to send a message 5 seconds after a person joins for the first time?
And perhaps you should put the messages inside the config.yml so they won't clash(as mentioned before) because of a miscalculation

my time is limited, so about 1-2 weeks
Any chance you know when this will be ready for group announcements?
@JohnShone: there are already plugins for that
@Firelight730: I MAY add something LIKE that in the future, but thats low priority
PLEASE CREATE TICKETS FOR ISSUES (BUGS, FEATURES, ...)
<<reply 478414="">>
there are already plugins for that
How about a option for each announcement to adjust it's indvidual interval and a priority option just incase announcements clash going like this? http://pastebin.com/hE1dNfDS and incase the priorities are the same, the plugin will chose the announcement over alphabetical order?
you should add some system where when a player dies it announces his death e.g if a player kills them it says - [Playername] was killed by [Playeranme] with a [Itemname] if killed by a mob - [playername] was killed by a [mobname] let him rest in peace's if the player dies of natural course - [playername] died when he [tried to swim/went to near the edge/touched lava/went on a hunger strike
over than that i love this plugin
@evereadycod
random order is not supported yet, but may be added in the next version.
a list command for the announcements is good idea.
Hay Dude Nice plugin -_-
It's great but I need help how do i make the message go randomly
And can u make it so you can see the Announcements ingame so like /announce list so U can see the announcments in-game
@Hvarr
the plan is to add permissions like announcer.announcements.filename for every file.
@RedPoptarts
Nice one. Even better idea.
I would also love this feature. I would like to use this plugin to show users basic information on how the server works, but don't want to display this information to higher level users.
Another possible feature that would be great is have multiple text files, each with their own permissions nodes. This would be a great feature for servers with multiple classes, so that only relevant information could be announced to the particular user groups.
Please, do it.
@Hvarr
thats already planned, but not that simple to implement and time for this plugin is rare :/.
