Private Messages

Player-to-player messages with automatic reply tracking, plus a broadcast command for server-wide announcements. For public chat see Chat Format.

Commands #

CommandSyntaxPermissionDefaultDescription

/reply (alias /r)/reply <message>msg.replytrueReplies to the last sender
/broadcast (alias /bc)/broadcast <message>msg.broadcastfalseServer-wide announcement to all players and the console

Additional permissions #

PermissionDefaultDescription
msg.bypass.mutefalsePrivate messages despite a mute (also needs mod.bypass.mute, see Moderation)
ℹ️

Note: Messages to yourself, to offline players and to vanished players (without the see permission) are blocked. Click and hover effects are stripped from every message. Admins with /socialspy can read private messages (see Moderation).

💡

Tip: A small /msg cooldown (2 to 3 seconds) curbs spam without disturbing conversations. /reply is not affected.

Configuration (modules/messaging.yml) #

YAML
# Enables or disables private messages and broadcast.
enabled: true

messaging:
  # Display for the sender. Placeholders: <target>, <message>
  sender-format: "<gray>[<green>You <gray>-> <green><target><gray>] <white><message>"
  # Display for the receiver. Placeholders: <sender>, <message>
  receiver-format: "<gray>[<green><sender> <gray>-> <green>You<gray>] <white><message>"
  # Maximum message length for /msg and /reply.
  max-length: 256

cooldown:
  commands:
    # Seconds between two /msg of the same player. 0 = no cooldown.
    # Applies to /msg only, not /reply.
    msg: 0

The broadcast uses the messaging.broadcast-format from messages.yml and parses MiniMessage fully (only admins may use it).
