The %%MD0%% plugin is used here to display the prefix from %%MD0%%

Chat channels

BeeChat supports multiple chat channels, each with its own format, distance and permission. Channels are identified by prefixes in the message.

Example

Chat channels (global, local and staff)

Spy mode

Spy mode allows players with permission to monitor all chat channels. This is useful for administrators who need to oversee conversations for moderation purposes. When enabled, all messages sent in any channel will be displayed to the spy, formatted according to the spy mode configuration. Can be enabled or disabled using the `/beechat spy` command. Permission: beechat.spy

Tab customization

Tab header, footer and player name format can be customized in config.

Example

Example tab list

Configuration

The default config can be found here: https://github.com/KotQWERTY/bee-chat/blob/main/src/main/resources/config.yml.

The configuration file (`config.yml`) only supports MiniMessage format. Legacy (ampersand) formatting is not supported.

You can use placeholders from MiniPlaceholders and PlaceholderAPI in the configuration.

Reloading

The configuration can be reloaded using the command `/beechat reload`.

Permission for the command: beechat.reload

Example configuration

```yaml chat: message-format: '<luckperms_prefix><reset> <name> <yellow>→ <gray><message>' channels: - identifier: '!' format: '<message_format>'

- identifier: '#' permission: chat.channel.staff format: '<red>(Staff)</red> <message_format>'

- identifier: '' distance: 40 format: '<yellow>(Local)</yellow> <message_format>' spy: format: '<aqua>Spy</aqua> <channel_message>' disable-on-leave: true

tab-list: enable: true update-period: 200 header: '<br><gradient:yellow:gold>Example Server<br>' footer: '<br>There are <green><server_online></green> players online<br>' player-name: '<luckperms_prefix> <reset><name> <luckperms_suffix>'

messages: reload: '<green>The <gradient:yellow:gold>BeeChat</gradient> configuration has been reloaded' not-player: '<red>This command can only be executed by a player' spy-mode-enabled: '<aqua>Spy</aqua> mode <green>enabled</green>.
