Finally stopped working with 1.9 :( It lasted SO long!
In the video, the double quotes appear to shape themselves into some format after being typed in (they switch apostrophes, and some appear in different parts of the message.) This doesn't happen automatically for textedit on my mac, so the messages have quotes at the beginning and end. I don't want those there, so is there a certain program I should use that will fix this for me?
@CarolinaFlower
I thought i lost color ability when i used formats: [Gray, Aqua, &f, &b] etc. it actually broke the config file.
but it Worked when and after i used this format:
GRAY,AQUA, RED, etc...
Here is link to format codes: Formatting Codes Just use name of color but in ALL CAPS. using CB 1.7.9 R01
What are the color codes?
@MALONN
If you have a good permission plugin, create a custom command that players can execute (or use the one built into the permission plugin yourself, not let players to use it) to create a negative permission node for that broadcast.
I use group-manager, and for this explanation, ill have an announcement called "ShutUp". In side that announcement, make the permission "group.shutup", and I'll give it to everyone that I wan to see it. After creating a custom command, I will have command that allows a person to do /stfu. Then, console will run "manudelp [playername] -group.shutup". This will remove the announcements from them. Or, if they complain to me, I could do /manudelp [playername] -group.shutup.
Are you still going to update this plugin anymore, or have you moved on?
Just use AutoAnnouncer
In 1.7.4, /tm reload doesn't work, it just stops it from working (until the server next restarts). This is a handy and awesome essential for any server, however. Nothing quite compares to the perfect simplicity of this awesome white-label plugin.
Edit: I owe an apology, the reload command works just fine- I happened to be in a (brand new) world I was setting up which didn't yet have permissions to see the broadcasts. Apologies for the confusion!
@Prominentc
It's funny you mention that, that's exactly the reason I came to this page today. I'd love for there to be a command so people could ignore the ticker. In fact, I need it so badly I'll have to switch plugins just for that feature if I can't find it here.
Please, add an ignore option for the ticker! It's useful to noobies, but if you've played on the server a long time then it gets rather annoying and would be really nice to silence it for the elder players.
How about a command to shut timed messages up?
Some players say "I read them all and they are annoying" but I can't turn them off for that player neither can they.
A command like /tm ignore would be great.
Also does timedmessage respect the worldguard flag "receive-chat: deny"? because I see messages in these regions :/

Hmmm I like the idea of single use messages. I will look into that.
I need a fix to the bombardment of messages on join:
I have like a MOTD and 5 plugins spamming (all needed and useful info) plus I could use even more messages to inform the new player of useful stuff.
My idea would be to remove the text from those plugins (because I can) and add them to timed messages and use a permission node to show these messages to new users only and set the delay at 10/12 seconds.
So they would see everything important one by one
but for that there is just one problem there would need to be an option to only show these messages to new users and only once.
Could you add these two options?
I've used this plugin on the many servers I've owned and I've never been able to use standard formatting but never bothered to complain about it.
Please fix the formatting or put a list of all your &RED things please, cuz colours that makes sense don't have names you would expect, e.g. LIGHT_GREEN doesn't work
Works great! But I'm the only one that can see the messages. Do I need to get some kind of permissions plugin as well?
Edit: I'm an idiot. Just had to delete the permissions line.
Love the plugin, its the best and has all the options I wanted. However... \n isnt working, and I would like to see new color codes (&b &4) or at least a list of the colors so I don't have to guess arround. Otherwise, its a great plugin!
@Joxiscraft
Fixed in the latest update.
@Joxiscraft
Actually it does appear to be broken. I am looking into it.
@Joxiscraft
try doing /n instead. I changed this in an update.
@icyq1538
This will happen if the syntax of messages.yml is wrong. Create a backup before editing the file and make sure that you are editing the file correctly. Look at the examples for more information or post here again for help.
@neoteknic
Not sure I could not find that project on dev.bukkit.
MySQL support would not be appropriate for this plugin.
question how many messages can you program.everytime I place one message then add a few more reload the messages are gone but 1
