It can change chat join messages, titles on join, sounds on join, and more to come! ### First time join text ![First time join text](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/362ecae90501431517ca9bb4a7f550ec1997413f.png) ### Join text ![Join text|274](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/918aacb4f4dc71765e7f4449f7fb418c1d90ab99.png) ### Leave text ![Leave text](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/6ff913530795e1cd8462920c8a745196e9f62402.png) ### Join title ![Join title](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/7351cec00f329a7d104955e2e176dc2a7dd06bb8_0.webp) ## How to configure messages In JoinLeavePlus it is very simple to change the join/leave/first time join messages. You can EITHER use MiniMessage OR legacy color coding. Also, as of update 1.4 you can add multiple different messages to have them be randomized. If you don't want randomized messages, just set only one of them. This text can be configured differently if they have joined or not. And, as of 1.7, you can now use PlaceholderAPI in your join, leave, and first time join messages. You can do this by just downloading PlaceholderAPI (optional if you don't want this feature), and applying any placeholders you want in the config file. A further detailed tutorial for this is available at ([this website](https://abradee.github.io/joinleaveplus-papi/)) . ## How to configure titles You can now customize the titles that show to a player when they join! You can enter text just how you would in the config with the join messages, using MiniMessage or legacy color coding. These are able to be configured differently for if a player has or hasn't joined before. ## How to configure sounds There are sounds that you can configure in JoinLeavePlus, that you can set in the config. If you want to change it from the default, go to the config and set it to a sound ID like ` minecraft:entity.experience_orb.pickup`. The config also allows setting different sounds for if a player has joined before or not.
