Information about EssentialsChat and servers where it was found
🔌 About EssentialsX Chat
EssentialsX Chat is the chat formatting module for the EssentialsX suite. It provides configurable chat formats, group prefixes/suffixes and color support and is designed to be installed alongside the main EssentialsX module on Bukkit/Spigot/Paper servers.
🎯 Purpose
Provide server operators a centralized, configurable chat formatter that applies different formats per group, injects prefixes/suffixes from a permissions provider, and supports color and basic message formatting without requiring a separate full chat plugin.
⚙️ Features
- Configurable chat formats with placeholders and color codes.
- Support for prefixes and suffixes provided via a permissions/chat bridge.
- Different chat formats per permission group.
- Integration points for permissions/chat providers (Vault + a permissions plugin) to read group data.
- Distributed as a module of EssentialsX so it pairs with the main EssentialsX plugin.
🧩 Who It Is For
- Server owners and administrators who use EssentialsX and want in-plugin chat formatting.
- Survival / SMP and small-to-medium public servers that use centralized group prefixes and colorized chat.
🏗️ Example Use Cases
- Show player group prefixes and suffixes from a permissions plugin in global chat.
- Apply separate chat formats for staff, VIPs, and default players.
- Use color codes and simple placeholders to control how player messages appear.
⚙️ Installation
📥 Setup
- Download the EssentialsX Chat module JAR that matches your EssentialsX core version.
- Place the module JAR (and the EssentialsX core JAR) into your server
plugins/directory. - Start or restart the server and confirm the plugin loads in console logs.
📦 Dependencies
- EssentialsX (core module) — required.
- Vault — required for pulling prefixes/suffixes from a permissions/chat provider.
- A permissions plugin that provides groups (commonly LuckPerms) — recommended for group-based formats.
🧠 Technical Notes
- EssentialsX Chat is distributed as an EssentialsX module and requires the matching EssentialsX core module version.
- The module integrates with Vault to obtain prefix/suffix/group data from a permissions provider; LuckPerms is commonly used alongside it.
- Supported server software: Bukkit-compatible platforms (Spigot, Paper) as provided by the EssentialsX project.
- Licensed under GPL-3.0.
🤝 When This Plugin Is Useful
If you already use EssentialsX and need consistent, group-aware chat formatting (prefixes, suffixes, colors) with minimal additional plugins, EssentialsX Chat provides those features as an official EssentialsX module while relying on Vault and a permissions plugin for group data.
