Simple Prefix: Allows you to easily manage your chat with prefixes and suffixes.
This plugin uses prefixes and suffixes that are very easy to configure, from inside of an yml config file. You apply prefixes and suffixes per user or group in the /SimplePrefix/config.yml file.
Alternatively, Simple Prefix can be configured to get the prefixes and suffixes from Vault supported chat plugins instead (PermissionsEx, bPermissions, etc.)
You can fully alter the chat format. For example, you could achieve the following ingame:
- [Admin] Flabaliki: my message here
Or even, just completely mix and match the template to get the look you want.
A developer API is available to those who wish to access prefixes and suffixes and use them within their own plugin. Click "Metadata" above.
That's basically what this is, just a lightweight plugin for quickly getting your prefixes and suffixes to work, however you want.
Read the Configuration page for instructions on how to use the plugin.
Features:
- Uses permissions to apply prefixes and suffixes to selected users or groups.
- Alternatively, can use prefixes and suffixes from plugins supported by Vault.
- Formatting/color codes are fully supported.
- Configure the chat format to display however you want.
- Developer API for fetching prefixes and suffixes.
- Easy to use commands for adding / removing prefixes in game.
- Set prefixes and suffixes per group or per user.
- Plays nicely with Essentials /nick command.
- Option to allow multiple prefixes / suffixes, and a configurable separator which is placed between them to separate them.
- A prefix or suffix tier system (so that you can make multiple ranking ladders).
- UUID support
- Offline mode server support (using usernames instead of UUIDs)
- Factions chat tags support (read our Configuration page)
Installation:
- Place Simple Prefix.jar into your plugins folder
- Restart or reload your server
- Edit your config.yml (see here for info)
Please carefully read the Configuration page!

As of version 2.3.1, this plugin uses an automatic updater to check if you are running the latest version, and if not, it downloads the latest version. To disable this please set "Auto-Update" to "false" in the config.yml file.
@Emandubs
Did you even take a look at the config ? remove [time] from the format under template
Hi, BaranCODE
when I used my prefix for the first time, a clock showed up before my prefix and my name, I do not want it there. Is it possible to take the clock off of my text and if so, how?
Thanks,
Emandubs
Thanks for the awesome update! :D
@GamerWithAVoice
Are there any errors on the console during startup?
Hello! I run a server! I've used this plugin for about a month now, and suddenly, all the prefix's are just gone. the command are invalid, and the config files wont generate again after i deleted them to try and reinstall them! PLEASE HELP!
Thanks for update :)
I've released Simple Prefix v2.5.0, for 1.10
The duplicate prefix/suffix issue with Vault has been fixed.
Let me know if you're still having any issues.
I have to remove all users from the .yml file and rewrite everything EVERY SINGLE TIME I restart my server, extremely annoying but it works
UPDATE TO 1.9!!!!!
Help it screws with plot chat of plotsquared
@BananaTiger Try this &c[Admin]&f
Hello, this plugin works great but however I'm having a slight problem. For example if I give a player the tag [Admin] in all red he will talk in red. I would like it if [Admin] was red and the payers name was red, but when they talk in chat its white.
Can this plugin use PlaceholderAPI? There are 2 placeholders listed on their page for this plugin but I can't find the expansion for them.
Hey can you make the 'worlds' prefix can also use Variables i would love this feature as i want if the player is in the Faction world it would display {FactionName} Faction Name
And if the player is in Prison it would be {PrisonRank} Prison Name Thanks :D
Im using CraftBukkit 1.8.8 Cracked server, and the plugin isnt using my UUID's. Instead, in the config it sets the prefix/suffix to playername 'null' . Tried both 1.8 versions. Offline mode should not be an issue, i know of a cracked server that also uses SimplePrefix without a problem. CosmicCraft uses it. IP: mc.cosmicmc.com
@Team_Smelted
I just tested it for 1.9, it worked for me
By any chance are you going to update this to 1.9?
@dylanflores344
As I've mentioned before, create a Simple Prefix group with the prefix you want, and give the permission for it to the default group in your permissions plugin.
Could you make a command for a default prefix/suffix
@stevesdiamondtnt
It's not very clear what you mean by "have access to Simple Prefix."
If you are asking for the permission nodes needed to give a person a prefix or suffix (by adding them to a Simple Prefix group), that would be simpleprefix.<group name>
Or if you're referring to the permissions required for the Simple Prefix commands (to change prefixes in-game, etc.), those are outlined on this page, under "Commands and Permissions.
