ColorMe
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

Been watching this mod, and I will use it if the PEX problem is fixed.
hello, can you set a prefix per group?
@Wolf314151
Yes, it's working for 1.2.3!
Remember that the nether is a 'other' world, so you need to make a color for that world, too!
Since 3.4 there is multiworld support.
@aciidic
Sorry topic isn't up to date, will fix it later.
To the PEX problem, I'll look into it later, atm on vacations til next week...
@iisaninjette
Weird. Will try to test it with Factions.
@aciidic
But how do you set this? I cant get ColorMe to recognise PEX prefix / player name colours.
@aciidic
Also this doesn't work with PEX, it ignores PEX colors.
e.g
I have &green[Admin] &yellowUsername &whiteMessage
Colorme overwrites this so everything displays as the global color, even when it's set to ' '
You need to make colorme extract the player name from PEX (not including prefix/suffix) before coloring only the name. The way PEX works is any prefix and suffixes set become part of the actual player name so that's why colorme will color the entire thing including any [tags] in the prefix or suffix
Also forces the PEX [prefix] to be displayed in the player list, most plugins like essentials chat, ichat, etc do not do this :(
Edit: also colorme suffix doesn't show anything, prefix works fine though. (using newest cb)
Would be nice to see some config documentation! No idea what half these options do..?
tabList: true
playerTitle: true
ColorMe:
displayName: true
tabList: true
playerTitle: true
Duplicate options? please explain!
Sure it works for 1.2.3? I was playing with some friends and my color changed on my screen but not theres. When I go to the nether realm, my name reverts back to white and when I leave it goes back to dark blue (on my screen, its always white on everyone else's).
the "random" color feature is highly beloved on our lgbt server :D
It actually lists the names in the log.server but not in the console. Which is odd but fine :P Also, with factions when someone has a prefix & joins a faction, it looks like MAero ember (putting the faction name in the middle of the prefix, faction name is Aero prefix is Member). This only seems to happen with some people though (non-ops), as my faction name & prefix is normal.
@taylorsamy
No, because it's not in the regular chat color list, it's only a wool color!
@iisaninjette
Okay, I'll look into it.
can you add lime to the color list
The only other plugin I have that changes chat is factions.
@iisaninjette
Can't reproduce this bug, please try to disable any chat plugins.
@roflRonny
Hi,
3.4.1 is updated for craftbukkit R6 and should work at 1.2.3, too!
Danke für das Feedback ;)
Hello All, I have got a question: Is Color me (with prefix and suffix) ready for 1.2.3 (R-5)? I hope because Its the best color/prefix/suffix plugin that I know
Ps: sorry for grammar I am German :)
I'm using the latest version and in my server's console it does not show the players name. It will simply show their prefix. Example: 2012-03-02 22:37:02 [INFO] [Mod] lol sweet XP
Will this be updated for R5?
@shankomaster
Are you sure it's caused by ColorMe? Is it each time a player chats?
@wvenderbush
Probably coming in version 3.5
@imaxorz
Create a ticket pls, if you think it's a bug.
@Ultra_Colon
Maybe I'll add an option.
is there anyway to get rid of the

@xGh0sTkiLLeRx
Basically names get color on the server from the Meta part in the bpermissions. Everyones names were green like they are supposed to be. After getting the latest version of this plugin, everyone names are now white. It ignores the color tags that in the meta sections of groups.yml file for bpermissions.
This is what I am talking about.
