Essentials Chat Help

Hey! I need help with my Essentials Chat, I have made a chat format for my server and it doesn't work when i restart, reload and essentials reload. I don't know why this is. Someone please help me with this, I also copied one from my other server (which works) and it didn't work either.

Here is my format:

############################################################
# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
# | EssentialsChat | #
# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
############################################################

# This section requires the EssentialsChat.jar to work.

chat:

# If EssentialsChat is installed, this will define how far a player's voice travels, in blocks. Set to 0 to make all chat global.
# Note that users with the "essentials.chat.spy" permission will hear everything, regardless of this setting.
# Users with essentials.chat.shout can override this by prefixing text with an exclamation mark (!)
# Users with essentials.chat.question can override this by prefixing text with a question mark (?)
# You can add command costs for shout/question by adding chat-shout and chat-question to the command costs section."
radius: 0

# Chat formatting can be done in two ways, you can either define a standard format for all chat.
# Or you can give a group specific chat format, to give some extra variation.
# For more information of chat formatting, check out the wiki: http://wiki.ess3.net/wiki/Chat_Formatting

format: '<{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'
#format: '&7[{GROUP}]&r {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&r {MESSAGE}'

group-formats:
Default: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&7 {MESSAGE}'
Owner: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
CoOwner: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
HeadManager: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
Manager: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
HAdmin: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
Admin: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
TrialAdmin: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
HMod: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
Mod: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
TMod: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
Helper: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
HBuilder: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
Builder: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'
TBuilder: '{DISPLAYNAME}&8 >&c {MESSAGE}'

# If you are using group formats make sure to remove the '#' to allow the setting to be read.


Thanks,

Please help me

 

Well the group format with the hash sign behind it(#) that actually makes it a comment and the plugin ignores it in the yml, so try removing the hash sign.
So to clarify this
#format: '&7[{GROUP}]&r {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&r {MESSAGE}'
Needs to be changed to this
format: '&7[{GROUP}]&r {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&r {MESSAGE}'
See how the hash is gone also you then need to save the yml and do ./pex reload in game or console. Or just restart the server.

 

that didn't work.

 

Then your yml is wrong.

 

Your yml is incorrect. for your yml make sure that it is this

group-format:
<3 spaces in this area>TestGroup: &b{DISPLAYNAME} &e: {MESSAGE}
