# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
# |                 Essentials (Global)                  | #
# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
############################################################
# A color code between 0-9 or a-f. Set to 'none' to disable.
# In 1.16+ you can use hex color codes here as well. (For example, #613e1d is brown).
ops-name-color: 'f'
# The character(s) to prefix all nicknames, so that you know they are not true usernames.
nickname-prefix: '~'
# The maximum length allowed in nicknames. The nickname prefix is included in this.
max-nick-length: 15
# A list of phrases that cannot be used in nicknames. You can include regular expressions here.
# Users with essentials.nick.blacklist.bypass will be able to bypass this filter.
nick-blacklist:
#- Notch
#- '^Dinnerbone'
# When this option is enabled, nickname length checking will exclude color codes in player names.
# ie: "&6Notch" has 7 characters (2 are part of a color code), a length of 5 is used when this option is set to true
ignore-colors-in-max-nick-length: false
# When this option is enabled, display names for hidden users will not be shown. This prevents players from being
# able to see that they are online while vanished.
hide-displayname-in-vanish: true
# Disable this if you have any other plugin, that modifies the displayname of a user.
change-displayname: true
# This option will cause Essentials to show players' displaynames instead of usernames when tab completing Essentials commands.
change-tab-complete-name: true
# When this option is enabled, the (tab) player list will be updated with the displayname.
# The value of change-displayname (above) has to be true.
change-playerlist: true
# When EssentialsChat.jar isn't used, force essentials to add the prefix and suffix from permission plugins to displayname.
# This setting is ignored if EssentialsChat.jar is used, and defaults to 'true'.
# The value of change-displayname (above) has to be true.
# Do not edit this setting unless you know what you are doing!
#add-prefix-suffix: true
# When this option is enabled, player prefixes will be shown in the playerlist.
# This feature only works for Minecraft version 1.8 and higher.
# This value of change-playerlist has to be true
add-prefix-in-playerlist: true
# When this option is enabled, player suffixes will be shown in the playerlist.
# This feature only works for Minecraft version 1.8 and higher. 
# This value of change-playerlist has to be true
