PersonalMOTD
PersonalMOTD
A plugin that will let you show player's name in the MOTD and/or randomize public motds of your server. You can also use motd to only one player.
Version: v2.4
This plugin will show a players name to themselves in the MOTD of your server (that's the message shown in the server list!)
It uses mySQL or yml (your choice) to save a players IP. Once the player has logged in at least once to save the IP, it will begin showing them a custom MOTD you define in the conifg, where %name% is replaced with the player's name! You can also set special MOTDs for just one player so that only they see it.
Features:
- Easy config
- YML or mySQL support
- Custom MOTDs where %name% is replaced with a players name
- Can set a special MOTD on a player-by-player basis
- This plugin was tested on my server play.modnations.net and CookieSlap.net for over a month with an average of 50 players online, thought sometimes as many as 125 players. No issues were caused via this plugin.
- Colored MOTDs via using "&" - see colors here.
Config:
- mySQL settings ask the basics
- Set Main.SQL.Enabled to true if you want to use MySQL. (Database.)
- If mySQL connection fails, it will use YML
- Motds.MOTD? - Use %name% where you want the player's name to be
- Motds.Count - Change this to as many motds you want it randomize through.
- Custom MOTDs: - If a player is entered here, only they will see this motd.
- Want colors? Use the color tags in the message.
- Is the UpdateChecks annyoing? Turn them off in the config.
Color Codes:
Use these codes to add colors into the MOTD. Simply use the & symbol followed by the number or letter.
Example: '&9Welcome to the server, &c%name%&9!' would show: Welcome to the server, TheNameofThePlayer!

@Jawz_cod
I will upload it in any minute, I have been very busy but now I am back! :D
@addemod
I like addemod's version! Where can I download it.
@itsatacoshop247
Thank you, I already made my version of it and just added more features like choose how many motds (not per player) you want to use that will randomize each time someone looks. You just change the number from 1 to something, like 2 and add MOTD2: 'Bla bla'
@addemod
I PM'd chaseoes, we'll see if he replies soon and I will let you know. I can always just add you to this project and give you full perms + rewards from it, helps to keep it alive.
@itsatacoshop247
But.. but.. :(
@addemod
I was hoping to keep this alive, @chaseoes had recently offered to take over this original project.
I made a new version of this. You will be able to write as many motds as you want and it will randomly go thru each of it on the refresh so it won't stay on the same all the time. If I am allowed, I will make a new "Project" of this, and give full credit to itsatacoshop247.

I agree, plugin is currently amazing. Only thing that could make it better are more messages.
Does plugins have random messages so the player with see something this. If not it would be awesome if it did.
Welcome back, *name* -Refresh- Other Message?
Sorry guys, meant to reply about this earlier.
Between work, school, and my minecraft server, I really don't have time for my public plugins right now. I also don't really get anything out of making them anymore - my server doesn't use them, I don't get money, I mostly just get people getting angry with me when they can't figure out a config file.
So I will not be doing more updates - I am however looking for someone to take over my plugins (one or all of them), so anyone intrested may contact me, I can just add them as an author to the project.
Does this work with 1.4.6?
Works with 1.4.6
How does this work if the person has multiple account's?
Can the plugin set a different MOTD for each player and use variables to set them?
For example:
&1Hello %name%. &2 You have $%money% and you are in the world %world%.
&1Hello admin &4%name%
Please keep this alive, as this is a one of a kind plugins; its great

Hmm, I'm not sure if I can color the MOTD, I'll look into it.
EDIT: Did some googling, looks like you can add color codes, I'll test it and if all goes well I will release a version with this tonight.
EDIT2: Added in V1.1
Pls make it colorable and it would be awesome :)
Ok this one is actually a cool MOTD that shows something different. :D
This looks really cool!
