NickNames
NickNames is a simple plugin, that adds support for nicknames into the game. These nicknames persist over server restarts, and can be coloured. Display name, tab-list name, and name in join and quit messages are currently affected by nicknames.
Commands:
- /nick - Basic nick command.
- /nick <nickname> - Changes your nick to <nickname>.
- /nick <playername> <nickname> - Changes <playername>'s nick to <nickname>.
- /nick off - Removes your nick.
- /nick off <playername> - Removes nickname for <playername>.
- /nicknames - Displays plugin information.
- /nicknames lookup <nickname> - Looks up a username from a nickname.
Permissions
- nicknames.nick - Can change any nicks.
- nicknames.nick.self - Can change own nick.
- nicknames.nick.other - Can change other's nicks.
- nicknames.lookup - Can lookup people based on their nicknames
Config
As of version 2.3, there are two configuration options. In v2.2, the only option is allow-duplicate-nicknames, which determines whether the plugin will allow multiple players having the same nickname. Note that it is recommended to set this to false as it prevents use of the lookup command. In v2.3 the option join-and-quit-message-colour is added to stop nickname colour from taking over the message. It defaults to the default colour (yellow).
allow-duplicate-nicknames: false # &e is yellow join-and-quit-message-colour: &e

@PandazNWafflez
Can you add the /nick off <Player> function?
Okay - I have entirely rewritten the plugin. It now features persistent nicknames and the reverse lookup feature.
I'm going to be rewriting this plugin from scratch and releasing the update on here shortly. Sorry for the extended absence :P
@ESSHD
I'll have a gander at the source code if I can, then release it.
@Speedysnail6
If you could get your hands on the source, However you plan on doing that.. You could change it so for example, When the player has the nickname, which in this case would be when the message: You changed your nickname to: <nickname>
You can change it so when the message appears, The variable <nickname> is stored in the config file. So it would be: this.getConfig().set(p.getName(), nickname); this.saveConfig();
p.getName() is the player name...
nickname is the nickname the player set it as.
This would also make the nickname permanent because it's stored in a config, not a hashmap, ect.
Make a 1.7.4 nicknames
i used to have this as my default nicknames plugin for my server. now, it wont work, i keep redownloading it again and again; i put the .jar is my plugins folder and in the console it says it is enabled, although when i do /nick [my nickname] it wont nick me. BUT a message appears on my screen (not the console) that says Nickname successfully changed! but it dosent change my nickname! i dont mean to be annoying, but PLEASE fix this.
is this 1.6
Can't wait for persistent nicknames c:
Yo dude, you get this thing rocking with the perma nicks so people can log out and return and whatnot - and I'll plug the shiiii* outta your plugin. If you update this to be permanent please let me know! I can use it for my youtuber server for the youtubers whos accounts do not match their youtube accounts names... please do this. We will be in debt to you - if anyone else see's this and knows of a persistent nick plugin please let me know I will be indebted to you.
i wan´t to know it, too. 1.5 supported?
waiting for persistent nicknames. thx :)
Will this one work for 1.5?
Where are the nicknames stored? Can they be edited with notepad and changed there?

@MedlarGW
It's up to you to configure your chat. If you have a chat plugin, you can either use %displayname or %player. I don't remember if those are exactly the right ones but one is the username and the other is the nickname.
I have my eyes peeled for that rewrite... If you don't have time to write it just say so. Then I can look for another nicknames plugin.
Does this change the name displayed in chat and tab-list?
Ok you need to add the &7 &a Color supports for this plugin please i need this for my server!
And please Add Multi Color like &cS&7O&8n&aI&5C type thing :P
A rewrite of the plugin is on the way guys, there will be no TPing to a nick for now, but nicknames will persist over restarts.
