'%player' variable does not work. D:
Using 1.2 for 1.6.4 is it possible to reload the MOTD without a server restart?
Edit: When not changing it in game I mean. Editing the config externally then reloading.
A nice variable would be %version that would show the version. (Auto updating like if i changes my version to 1.8 it would detect it!)
@viktorhubinette
Do you have any error in console?
Hi aledanmar Nice plugin but the variable %player dont work on the motd is that a bug ? please fix it :)
@MrLizardDogMan
When you launch the server, is there any error? Probably, you'll be writing something incorrectly
Ok, I wanted to set my Server List MOTD to: system: '&l&m-[&m
-&r &l&bFactions&aMC&r &m&l-]-' but its only showing up as the default motd.Please add a(n Essentials formatted) nickname variable for Server List MOTD (and Login MOTD), so that you can see who joined the server last.
Thanks!? :)
I have a suggestion, There should be an option to have a randomizer where the server owner can set random messages that will change each time a player clicks multipayer.
will this work if i put this in the motd? ███☺☻☺☻☺♥♥ © ?

@timsavage
I have added that feature in (ServerMotd 1.3.1)
The variable is: %newline
can you add a variable what makes a new line in the server list message?
Thanks for the suggestions. In future updates I'll keep that in mind
I'd like you to add this, change automatically the motd depending on the country where you are, Usa or Spain. Thanks.
With this plugin, can you set the player's skin to the server-icon.png? (Having it update to the player that looks at it?)
@zifaun
I would also like to be able to add a line break character to the external server motd, to allow for a two line message. Other than that, the plugin appears to work great!

I have fixed the problem, with ServerMotd 1.3 fix, the problem is solved. Remove your config
for some reason the plugin keeps deleting its like entire config file. and i've had issues with player logins throwing error.

I think the error on login is due to the config deleting itself other than the external motd but everytime i set the config it just dletes itself again.
