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

Only the bukkit permissions are supported! I highly recommend that you use a plugin for permissions like bPermissions!
If no permission system is found, all commands are for OPs only!
If you want to use ECONOMY, please use Vault!

@xGh0sTkiLLeRx
okey
@perotorca
The name would be colored when you join.
Do you mean the join message?
You can grant permissions for each different color, or disable some.

FAQ ;)
Each color needs 2 characters -> I have a 16 characters limitation :(
Hi my friend have 7 latters in his name and use rainbow color name and when i press tab and look on his name its says farl.. can i change so he can have whole name in tab? :)
Question:can be coloured name on join? and for ops, [red color]others are not allowed to use red color only admins is there possible to make this plugin?or script it
@lANTHONYl
Version independent :)
@jjc1999
Make sure the files are writable by the process.
Also you can try to edit the changes when the server is not running or do a /color reload after editing it.
Does ColorMe use NMS/OBC code, or is it version independent?
Hey, I just downloaded ColorMe onto my Bukkit server. First of all, it works great! Except for one thing: every time I log off my server and join again, the color of my name goes back to white. Only the color of my name, not the prefix or suffix. Can someone PLEASE help me, it's bugging me A LOT. The other plugins im using are: Spectate, Multiverse-Core-2.5, Multiverse-Portals-2.5, Multiverse-Inventories-2.4, CensorIt, and TagAPI.
P.S. also, when ever i've EVER edited plugins from the config files, when I run bukkit, it FREAKS out and either doesn't save the changes i've made in the config, or removes all my data. Please help out w/ that too!
Why people in my server without permission can change the color? How can I prevent that?
@ryanobrien1
Ignoring, since you missed the red big information.
There are example on HowTo setup the plugin for PEX in the FAQ.
@parrothead1337
I'm not sure how MultiVerse handles the prefixes, I'll take a look and reply again with more information
Using Colorme v3.8 and Multiverse.
I have world prefixes for Multiverse that do not display at all when using this plugins newer version. I was using a very old version that was working fine with Multiverse prefixes.
Below is a pastebin of my configuration. http://pastebin.com/BhMaHA67
I was slightly confused by the FAQ
Is There Any way I could Get Some Help i Use PermissionsEx but It Wont work, Does it have to be BPermissions? Can You Come On My server and Help me?

hc.theperfectblock.net
My IGN is ryanob im the owner
I get several errors running this addon with 1.5.0
The thing I noticed not working is namecolor of a player.
Prefix seems to work though..
Fixed , my TagApi was outdated.
The latest version still works fine on 1.5!!
@EpicTrance
Then it's your bad luck. I won't quote the big red banner again.
My server runs fine with 3.8 and MC 1.5
doesnt work
@solvorn
You would need to create an extra color then, combing is more like formatting and color ;)
@Ugrashrath
I might implement a nickname function in the next major release (4.0)
@EpicTrance
Should still work fine!
update to 1.5 pls
While I really like a lot of what this plugin does, it doesn't do nicknames does it? For example Changing "Playerone" to just "pone". Is there anyway this could be added?
@xGh0sTkiLLeRx
for example like blue,black blue-black
