ColorMe
ColorMe - Add color to player names
Version v3.8.1
Old forum link: Click!
Description
This plugin aims to modify the chat with colors, prefixes and suffixes.
You can set the color/prefix/suffix for individual players or create groups and add players to them.
There are several supported third-party plugins and other supported things like Spout or an economy system.
It's a rebirth of ColorMe and Prefixer from @Valrix

Let me see if I am understanding this correctly. You can set groups and assign a color to them, but you have to manually add players to the groups for it to take effect?
It would be really nice if you could set a permission per group that automatically placed users in said group. Then, when brand new users join (default) they get "guest" or something.
@KoolNyanKats
Are other colors working?
Installed Essentials? Turn "change-displayname" to false
@Teralkin
Currently not, sorry
@JerryFord
Try disabling tabList in the ColorMe config, when it's false ColorMe won't touch the tab list
hi, i have a problem whenever i use the /color me 'aqua' command it never changes my color! after using the command it says that my color is changed but ingame whenever i chat it remains the same. how can i fix this.
Is there a way, or can it be added, to use custom colors in prefixes and suffixes?
Running 3.8.1 and Bukkit 1.5.2 beta
Had scoreboard implemented and setdisplay on tabbed namelist.
After putting in ColorMe, the count shows as zero. Attempting to move the scoreboard to sidebar doesn't work. Moving the count to BelowName does work, so data on count is intact.
Please advise.

Hello. For me the /color doesn't work. I do /color me blue and it stays red. I went into the config and did the false thing but still didn't work. Please help anyone??
Hello, I use the command /color me green I use PermissionsEx and the prefix is '&8[&9Donator&8]&9'. My name is still blue.
@Lostferret13
Not possible, remember the 16 characters limit.
Sorry to tell you this is only possible in the chat.
Thanks for the report, this is fixed in the next version!
@SilverGRD
No, only Mojang can change it
@xHaamish
Disable change-displayname in the Essentials config.yml and try it again.
@alpharo777
Are you using the new ChatFormat of ColorMe or the legacy system?
Any other chat plugins installed?
If yes, try to add a &f in their config after the name
@deleted_10823130
You can make spaces in prefixes.
Start the prefix with a "_" -> every _ is translated to a space then
Uhm, Does this change the Char limit in the players name?
How come it doesnt work when i have essentials on?
Hi, i'm having problems to change the nicknames colors in chat, the thing is that i want to change ONLY the color for users' nicknames, but instead of that, colorme changes not only the nicknames color but also the chat color, like this:
What i'm doing wrong? i've set the permissions for my group ("admins") to this:
My craftbukkit version is CB 1.5.1-R0.2, and ColorMe v3.8 (also tested CB 1.5.1-R0.1 with no luck).
Thanks in advance!
I want Colorme prefixes and suffixes to show up on the Player's NameTag but not in chat...is there a way to do this? Currently I cannot even get players to see the prefix of a group or other. And I also get this internal error when I try to look at group color values.
And I dont mean to be rude, but following my last post, The format could be like line1:ColorMe;line2:suffix/prefix/color;line3:color/prefix/suffix;line4:cost if economy is enabled.
I'd like to request a feature, I was wondering if you could make it so when you click on a sign the players prefix/color/suffix is updated so when they join my server they get the auto prefix/suffix/color but when they accept the rules they get a new prefix/suffix/color. If there is already a feature of the type just inform me, and if you can't add this (or don't want to) just let me know.
Thanks
GiraffeKneeIs there a way to make it so that whenever someone sets a prefix, it adds a space to it, but if they don't have a prefix there's no space?
Like this:
No prefix:
[S] playername: blaargh
With prefix:
[S] prefix playername: blaargh
right now it's this:
No prefix:
[S] playername: blaargh
With prefix:
[S]prefix playername: blaaargh
I have eclipse, so I can modify the code.
PM me how if you can please.**
