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

Does the plugin have an alias for Colour instead of Color?

Maybe this solves your problem:
Set

ops-name-color: 'none'

In the essentials config.

If it changed the players.color, it's working. Check your essentials config:

change-displayname: true

format: '<{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'

Make sure the first line is set to true and the and the second lines contains the DISPLAYNAME.
Btw. are you an OP (or the player who's color isn't changed)?

Btw, are you still launching the command executor separately instead of hooking it into bukkit?

Some code needs to be optimized, that's true ;)

@drfox101

Would you give version 3.1 a try? (Use the dropbox link, if the file isn't approved (yet) here!)

Hey,
Valrix is (was) too busy to keep it up to date - he passed it off. This one is updated to the newest bukkit standards.
I also changed to commands a bit. Besides this I rewrote a large part of the code ;)

@Mr_FJ

Hi! Try it with your chat plugin! It colors only the displayname! And it looks like your are using prefixes. If you need help create a forum thread ;)

Yeah, it should be in the TAB list :)

Would I be able to do something like this: [Mod]Mr_FJ The bold part would be in colour.

Also, will the colours show up in the player list? (when you press TAB)
