Prefixes with essentials group manager NOT working!?

Well on my server, I have a very professional minecraft plugin and server guy, that has been helping me (xlegitxcrazymanx). He guided me through fixing the configs and everything. Well first the permissions weren't working because my server recently got owned by some noob hackers. But I fixed all of that. I went through the files and everything and I looked at all permissions and it all was fixed. So I went to my groups.yml (I use Essentials GM) and I edited Administrator, Owner, etc. I added the prefix, and I added the color codes to it. Well on the server I used to be able to type color codes in chat, but now it doesn't work. But that's not exactly what I care about, because I can still color code my nickname, so yeah. But I added the prefix to it, I reloaded the server, and I still have no prefix. I reloaded it many times, edited it many times, and etc. So can anyone please help me? Thanks alot!​

Well I can do a whole pex file for you with all your custom permissions. I'm not a fan of groupmanager because you can only edit the prefix. I guess just check all your spacing. I don't know too much about groupmanager.

 

Really can you? Are you sure it will work the way I want it?

 

This is just me but i dont use Groupmanager for the prefixes. I use PermissionsEx and PEXRank.
But that just me!

 

I'll do it as long as you don't have factions. That will screw up Chatmanager and PEX.

 

spiderking220 PolarCraft instead of telling him to switch a permission plugin to a broken one for absolutely no reason, you could actually TRY to help.

Albattal ignore these guys, you mentioned using essentials, are you using essentialschat.jar? if not, get it, if yes, paste startup log.

 

Um i don't see anything about it being broken unless you mean that its not up to date then yeah.

 

http://bit.ly/QBTtcQ

 

Okay i see your point but still all of the plugin works for more! No crashes nothing like that.

 

it does crash.

 

Same thing happened to me. Make sure your on Bukkit Beta not dev.

 

Well I was TRYING to help. I was offering to give him PEX with files premade. I find it easier than essentialsgroup manager. PEX and ChatManager are not broken either. I am okay with giving the files out. PM me if you are interested. If you are sticking with Essentials Group Manager, that is also a great plugin. I don't know too much about it sadly.

 

Sorry, I was just sent this from him. I honestly don't have enough time, I am currently working for 2 servers and.... Well.

I'll try and convence him to switch to PEX, also he is using factions so...

 

Well he told me to ask you to make it for me, then I guess me and him will work it out and it's good...

 

i wonder why i have to drop this on any thread..
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BIgAU7senSG1hY0BjQAQFAnbuOqFhpln7ffN6pkOp4s/edit
people REALLY want to break bukkit?

 

Piss off other guys ur not helping.
I have experienced the same before but got it fixed in the end.

Of course your number 1 priority is to make sure your essentials is up to date. From the day i posted this it was version 2.1.2.1
Now if that doesn't work go into your essentials folder and locate config.yml open that. Then locate ++++#essentials chat#++++. Scroll down to the word format (the first one) this doesn't have hashtags so the command line cannot be read. So locate the second format and that should look like this #format. So grab that hash tag and move it to the previous format so the prefixes line could be read.

Ok now lastly are you using a hosting website? Does it have a plugin database that you just click install and the plugins there. Well currently mcpro hosting's plugin database is out of date( i learnt that by speaking with one of there managers) if you do use that then you will need to manually install it through FileZilla or just the sites FTP provider

Hope this helped.

 

Karatechopninja You are a dumbass idiot. It doesn't Work. The last time i got it to work was with PermissionsEX And Core Protect.

Ok so i found out a way for it to work Albattal Go to Groupmanager Folder then go to worlds then click world. Then you will see two files...
Groups.yml and users.yml Click groups. then scroll down to Adminstraiter or owner and you will see prefix. Then add the prefix and color code that you want and their you go u have a preifx for groupmanager now.

zacatatc12 The person you are attempting to help posted this problem 2 years ago and hasn't logged onto the forums since March of last year. I seriously doubt that they still need help with this or will even see this post.
