Question How do you make it so when people join, they are automatically given a prefix?

I am using PermissionsEx, and they are given the rank but not the prefix. How do I do this?

 

Did you add a prefix option to the said rank? And do you have a chat plugin such as EssentialsChat?

 

Yes and yes! :/

 

Try to install iChat, or another chat plugin.
If that doesn't work, can we see your config.yml?

 

This is why i prefer GroupManager, It's much better tbh and these problems tend not to happen ever

 

This is an error though, and it has nothing to do with what perm plugin you use. Errors like this can happen to ANY plugin if there is an error in the config.yml or any other file.

 

@baci132 If there is a prefix on the default group in your permissions.yml file for PEX, and you have a chat plugin like EssentialsChat, it should work. Groupmanager and Essentials were made by the same development team and should be used together to avoid small conflicts.

 

Here is my config:

@baci132 I don't know why he asked for your config.yml xD but we just need your permissions.yml

 

Here is my permissions file:
http://pastebin.com/mgG2E5hB

 

There's no errors, right baci132?

 

No errors. I simply just did ⌘A in the permissions, ⌘C, and ⌘P in the pastebin. That is exactly my permissions.yml.

 

@baci132 Use iChat/HeroChat, their prefixes/chat options are prefix-based, and not relative to groups, which will make it relatively easier for you, as example, just adding the name of the permission written in a config/etc/i forgot how ichat/hero works.

If you're still willing to use essentials chat, try something like:

Big #EssChat (open) Big #EssChat (close)

Code:

[*]############################################################
[*]# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
[*]# |                  EssentialsChat                    | #
[*]# +------------------------------------------------------+ #
[*]############################################################
[*]

[*]# 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 (!)
[*]# Or with essentials.chat.question can override this by prefixing text with a question mark (?)
[*]chat:
[*]  radius: 0
[*]

[*]  # If set to the default chat format which "should" be compatible with ichat.
[*]  format: '<{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'
[*]  #format: '&7[{GROUP}]&f {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&f {MESSAGE}'
[*]

[*]  # You can also have group-specific formats, uncomment to enable:
[*]  group-formats:
[*]    Builder: '<&b{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'
[*]    Admin: '<&c{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'
[*]    Donator: '<&9{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'
[*]    Moderator: '<&a{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}'

Also keep formatting wiki in hand. http://wiki.ess3.net/wiki/Chat_Formatting#Chat_Formatting

Also I copied this from some example thing on another post, so don't pay any mind to [*]s.

 

What do you use to open permissions like so it's organized. Mines all messed up but still editable.

 

Do you mean Chat Editor? Or... IF so then use Notepad++

 

I am just organized, I wrote that all from scratch.
