    Well Hello Again.
    On my server my prefixes are working, but not changing when I do /manuadd {name} {group}

    Here are all the needed yml's

    Essentials config YML : http://pastebin.com/KkDGdnyi

    Groups YML : http://pastebin.com/SJBJRDHe

    Groups config YML : http://pastebin.com/KcCtsFYn\

    I also get this in my console when I reload my group manager

    Sorry for asking for so much help but I just can't get it right with my chat for my server.

    Ok, lets start by correcting your groups.yml .. You have some stuff in the wrong places. Default is good you have permissions under Permissions: and under inheritance: the g: global groups. Member is good but by moderator we fall apart. Moderator has both global groups and permissions under inheritance: Only an inherited group name and global groups go here. The permission - essentials.kit.starter should be under permissions above. Remove the [] behind permissions: [] and under pemissions follow the format in Members for permissions. Check all the groups all the way to the end and correct.
    Next you might want to paste your global groups file to pastebin but do you really have a properly formatted global group in the global groups file called g:essentials_co or g:essentials_owner or vip. Your error log indicates it can't find some global groups that you are using in the group.yml.

    As far as chat I don't do them quite that way, but in essentials, change your selection from the format: displayname message to the format: Group, displayname, message and see what that gets you for now.

    Still have 2 permissions under Admin in the inheritance section. Need to move them up to Permissions:
    elete, ultra and legend need brackets after permissions: as you have no permssions in that section. Should be Permissions: [] Should be a space between : and the brackets.

    Don't get errors anymore!
    and for essentials chat it didn't work...
    When I tried the new format I got this in chat
    12324156.JPG
    and when I switch it back to the other format it doesn't change prefix when i demote or promote.
    I removed hashtag on the format: Group, displayname, message. and added a hashtag to the other one. if you need to see the essentials config just use the other one because I didn't change anything else

    I would take out the prefix's from the groups in groups.yml and use a system I have used with good results. You can still add extra prefix's on to spruce things up. I use the group-formats: in essentials and configure them the way I want them for the group. They work in all the worlds that use the group name. The names in the group.yml and the names in the essentials group-formats are case sensitive so should match. Here is a sample from one of my group-formats:

    group-formats:
    # Default: '{WORLDNAME} {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&r {MESSAGE}'
    # Admins: '{WORLDNAME} &c[{GROUP}]&r {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&c {MESSAGE}'
    # If you are using group formats make sure to remove the '#' to allow the setting to be read.
    Default: ' {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    Builder: ' &2[{GROUP}]&2 {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    trusted: ' &a{DISPLAYNAME}&r:&r {MESSAGE}'
    # Used in Legit, mcwars, Pirates, mining_world, server_olympics, PVP
    Soldier: ' &b[{GROUP}]&b {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    Moderator: ' &e[{GROUP}] {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    Admin: ' &4[{GROUP}]&4 {DISPLAYNAME}&7&0:&f {MESSAGE}'
    # Used in Legit, mcwars, Priates, mining_world, server_olympics, PVP
    Superadmin: ' &4[{GROUP}]&4 {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    ServerAdmin: ' &6[{GROUP}]&c {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    C:confused:wner: ' &9[{GROUP}]&9 {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
    Owner: ' &9[{GROUP}]&9 {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'

    Make sure set them in like the example after the # is removed. Group name should start in column 5.

    This error also happens to me. It works on around the first 3 server launches but it doesn't change after that.

    Also, if I setup auto rewards with OnTime (e.g after 1 hour, promote to member) or any other promotion plugin the prefixes get stuck and if I do /manuadd gamer user (I have an Owner prefix)

    My prefix stays Owner when I speak.

    somewhere in your groups ladder you'll most likely find a player-specific mini permission set, if you did a command in-game to add a prefix to a player or give them a special permission, or something did, you'll need to remove the prefix or suffix on their player info section, with PEX it does this if you add them to their own group ladder or a different one, or give them a permission outside what the normal rank allows. If your using the FTP the server issues you instead of for isntance, filezilla, it can conflict depending on your host, i always had to do it from either in-game, or a FTP client from my computer, using the given FTP connection info, when i used it from the server's cute lil console, it always broke my groupmanager, most of why i changed hosts =p but i'd definatly check any plugin that issues a custom prefix/suffix or edits their name in any way.

    CapatainPlotty: I have modified the Group.yml :http/pastebin.com/kpNVEuZY

    And the chat section of essentials (just that portion) : http://pastebin.com/qxNjs8MT

    Note the simpler prefix's in group. start there for now and then add in when it is working. Give this a try and see if it gets you closer to where you want to be.

    It seems that it changes the prefix for anybody else who joins my server so that is ok.

    I am not sure what you mean by change your prefix. If you are just trying to change the variable "prefix" with /manuaddv <user><variable><value> you can do that, but as a rule you can not promote your self from a lower rank or add yourself to a higher rank except through the console. Those commands only allow the user to move a player between groups they inherit and by definition a lower group does not inherit a higher group.
    If you want to move between Owner and lower ranks in game you might want to set up a couple of command blocks with the ranks or just one to get back to Owner with manuadd < name > Owner <world>. You set it up in OP and then you can use it in game as a console command which works...

    deep15mine you can also give groupmanager.op permission, by the way.
