Need help with coding prefix

How do i code a rank name in front of a username. So like if i add the node rank.owner to owner group it will basically have [Owner] Michiman (chat here ) and if i add the node rank.member it will be [Member] Michiman etc

Also how do i remove the < and > from chat because i cannot find a way to remove them from chat.

Thanks

 

^True

Then in that, use a boolean and check if they have the appropriate permission node to have a certain prefix. Put this in an onJoin and set their display name to have their appropriate prefix. Then do something like this:

Code:

pce.setFormat(player.getDisplayName() + " " + pce.getMessage());

 

@Michiman This should propably do the job:

Code:

import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.AsyncPlayerChatEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
public class Main extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
  
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    }
  
    @EventHandler
    public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        String name = p.getDisplayName();
        e.setFormat(checkPrefix(p) + " " + name + ": " + e.getMessage());
    }
  
    public String checkPrefix(Player p) {
        String prefix;
        if(p.hasPermission("rank.admin")) {
            prefix = ChatColor.DARK_RED + "[Admin]";
        } else if(p.hasPermission("rank.owner")) {
            prefix = ChatColor.RED + "[Owner]";
        } else if(p.hasPermission("rank.moderator")) {
            prefix = ChatColor.DARK_PURPLE + "[Moderator]";
        } else
            prefix = "[Member]";
        return prefix;
    }
  
}

Change it to your own prefixes

 

@poepdrolify

Also, your checkPrefix method proposes inheritance issues. (Ex. The owner will have [admin] instead of [owner])

 

@SuperOriginal I know, but he can change it himself I hope...
