MOTD Manager

MOTD Manager is a Spigot plugin developed in Java for Minecraft 1.21, allowing you to dynamically manage the server's message of the day (MOTD) via an intuitive graphical interface.

Features

• GUI Interface — Select the MOTD via a custom inventory consisting of player heads (PLAYER_HEAD), with each head representing an MOTD profile.

• YAML Configuration — Each MOTD is fully configurable in a .yml file with native support for Minecraft color codes (§).
• Permission System — Each MOTD can be restricted by a specific permission (Permission-access). Players without the permission are automatically kicked upon connection.
• Custom Kick Message — A kick message (Messagekick) can be defined per MOTD profile to inform the player of the reason for being denied access.
• Persistent Save — The selected MOTD is saved in the config and automatically restored when the server restarts.
