Advanced-Chat

A simple and lightweight chat formatting plugin for Paper and Folia servers. It uses MiniMessage for the chat format and optionally hooks into PlaceholderAPI for extra placeholders. Basically like EssentialsX Chat or LPC, just without needing Essentials or LPC installed.

Players with the advchat.minimessage permission can use MiniMessage tags in their messages, and players with advchat.colorcodes can use legacy & color codes. Everything else gets escaped so nobody can mess up the chat.

The plugin will only function on Paper (or its compatible forks) and Folia servers.

Installation

Just drop the jar into your plugins folder. No other plugins are required.

PlaceholderAPI is optional, if installed its placeholders will work in the chat format automatically.

Configuration

The chat format is fully configurable in config.yml using MiniMessage and the following placeholders: %player%, %displayname%, %message%, %world%, %server% and any PlaceholderAPI placeholder.
