NameplateAPI
Nameplate(API)
Nameplate(API) is not just a tool for server owners. What NameTag does is 2 things.
The /nametag command, uses the 0-9 and a-f colours. There is also a "reset" /nametag reset (player).
Server Owners
- Have the ability to set a players name tag colour.
- Allow other plugins to set a players name tag. (Username / Username with Colour / Colour)
Commands for Server Owners
- To set your own nametag, you need the nametag.use permission. Command; " /nametag t [tag] "
- To set another players nametag, you need the nametag.use.others permission. Command; " /nametag t [tag] [player] "
- To set your own nametag colour, you need the nametag.use permission. Command; " /nametag c [a-f/0-9] "
- To set another players nametag colour, you need the nametag.use.others permission. Command; " /nametag c [a-f/0-9] [player] "
Developers
- Easy to use an API which does all the packeting business for you.
How to use Nameplate (Server Owners)
- Install the plugin.
- If you wish, players with the "nametag.use" permission, can set their/other peoples name tag.
- If you want to give groups/players certain nametags. Give them the permission of "nametag.colour.[code]". But don't give them "nametag.use".
How to use NameplateAPI (Developers)
- Add the plugin as a soft dependancy.
- Look in the GitHub repo for more info on how to use it.

Any support for my work can be done by popping me a donation! The button is next to the Curse link in the top right :)
@CaptainSkittles
Fixing this now. - Sorry
1.1.0 says it's 1.5 compat. I don't think it is. I'm going to release an updated version now. Please hold :)
I even can't set the nametags. I get an error :(
@Haribo98
Done, I'll post the update later. I need to make a few modifications.
@CaptainSkittles
It's only empty if no nametags have been set. Nametags will be saved to the config file on /reload / restart.
@DuffstersATL
Nevermind, I'm doing it right now!
I only have the config file in my folder, which is empty btw. I'm using Version 1.1.0 for 1.5.
@DuffstersATL
Hmm, if you know Java you can use the nametag setter?
Otherwise, I'll add it later.
Do you plan on eventually adding a way to change the nametag itself? My server is planning on doing a series and we are looking for a plugin that will allow us to change name tags. If you're not planning on doing so, I'd appreciate it if you'd point my towards a plugin that does change name tags. Thanks! :)

No PEX Support as of yet. This is due to PEX's way of permissions checking, and since I'm too lazy to implement the way it works. Well, not lazy, more I don't know how and I don't see why I should have to look into it, since PEX was made poorly. No offence. You can do a review if you want. Please leave a channel link & video link in the description.
Hi im a Plugin Reviewer! Would you like me to do a video on this? i know its simple but i really like it! Also is there any support for pex groups?
@S1lverK3y
Unsure. Maybe you could test it. I wouldn't think it would break, but sometimes it might conflict, if you get me?
@sigurd4
nametag.colour.4
if i want somones name dark red for example, will the permission-node be nametag.colour.4 or nametag.colour.§4 or nametag.colour.&4?
Is this compatible with the TagAPI or will it break with it?
I'm going to rewrite the description over the weekend, most people don't seem to be understanding it.
@S1lverK3y
It does, I fixed that in the most recent update. Also, I'm adding the permissions idea later today. I thought of the idea when making it, but never actually did it.
@Odyseo
Take what I said before about player permissions, replace players with groups and voila!
Hawt thx, i was searching for something like this! Does the namechange persist througj Server restarts?
please add permissions: nametag.allplayerchange
eg Vip other players can change the colors of nicknames but I do not want to so I would not give - -nametag.allplayerchange sugestion by Sebeklis :>
