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

As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom)

Hey guys so i am currently trying to start up a server and decided to use this plugin. However when i test it there is an error message saying 'These colours aren't supported' I dont understand. I edited the config as well as the colours .yml. I was really hoping to get my server set up and online by August (big gap cuz I will be away). PLEASE HELPPPPP!!!! D;

Does this plugin still work? Because when I do

/color me blue

It doesn't color me blue. The only color that does work is rainbow.

Hi devs.

I'm curious is there any easy/simple way to have a players name automatically added to the players.yml file upon joining for the first time?

It would save me having to add new players every time one gets whitelisted.

is it possible to make a custom random color? or maybe add a new random color without formatting codes in it?

Latest dev builds use the new TagAPI version. I'm releasing an update for that in the near future

Is there anyway to give everyone joining a default prefix, say an automatic group name, Member?
