Inactive [MISC] PersonalMOTD v1.1 - Include a player's name in your server's MOTD [1.4.2 R0.2]

Version: v1.1

This plugin will show a players name to themselves in the MOTD of your server (that's the message shown in the server list!)
It uses mySQL or yml (your choice) to save a players IP. Once the player has logged in at least once to save the IP, it will begin showing them a custom MOTD you define in the conifg, where %name% is replaced with the player's name! You can also set special MOTDs for just one player so that only they see it.
____________________________________________





Features:

• Easy config
• YML or mySQL support
• Custom MOTD where %name% is replaced with a players name
• Can set a special MOTD on a player-by-player basis
• This plugin was tested on my server CookieSlap.net for over a month with an average of 50 players online, thought sometimes as many as 125 players. No issues were caused via this plugin.
• Colored MOTDs via using "&" - see colors here.

Config:

• mySQL settings ask the basics
• Set Main.SQL.Enabled to false if you want to use yml
• If mySQL connection fails, it will use YML
• Main.MOTD - Use %name% where you want the player's name to be
• Custom MOTDs: - If a player is entered here, only they will see this motd.
• Want colors? Use '&a' in the message.

Color Codes:

Use these codes to add colors into the MOTD. Simply use the & symbol followed by the number or letter.
Example: '&9Welcome to the server, &c%name%&9!' would show: Welcome to the server, %name%!
&0 &1 &2 &3 &4 &5 &6 &7 &8 &9 &a &b &c &d &e &f

Commands:

• '/personalmots Reload' - Reload the plugin's config file

Permissions:

• personalmotd.reload - access to '/personalmots reload'

Roadmap:

• Suggest things!
• See Tickets~
• Fix issue where only one name can be shown per IP (maybe I can track hostnames?)
• Create a method to transfer data from yml to mySQL and vice-versa.
• A command or API to set the custom MOTD for a player. This might enable "You are banned from this server!" messages or something.
• Pruning of the IP lists after X days or after X days that a player hasn't logged in

Don't comment if you have an issue or suggestion, make a ticket on bukkitDev instead! Otherwise I probably will not see it, or ignore it.

Updated to V1.1 to include color code support

Thank you very much!

 

This should be renamed to "CreepyMotd". It's amazing!
