Text Syntax

From Citizens Wiki

Configuration syntax in Citizens is simple. Nodes within arrow brackets -- <> -- will be parsed and replaced if possible. Below are the available nodes that you can use.

Chat Colors

Use the Chat Color characters the same as any other plugin. For example, &a would give you green.

Color Reference
0 -- BLACK
1 -- DARK BLUE
2 -- DARK GREEN
3 -- CYAN
4 -- DARK RED
5 -- PURPLE
6 -- GOLD
7 -- LIGHT GRAY
8 -- GRAY
9 -- BLUE
a -- GREEN
b -- AQUA
c -- ROSE RED
d -- LIGHT PURPLE
e -- YELLOW
f -- WHITE

You can also use hexadecimal colors in Minecraft 1.16+, using Spigot's syntax - &x&f&f&0&0&e&e or Essentials' syntax - &#ff00ee (both examples produce the same pink/magenta color).

Other

There are also other nodes that you can use in configuration files. Some of these do not apply to certain configuration settings, so use with care. More will be added in the future as the need arises.

NPC Nodes

<npc> -- NPC's name
<id> -- NPC's ID
<owner> -- NPC's owner

Player Nodes


<player> -- Player's name
<world> -- Player's world

External Placeholders

If you have PlaceholderAPI installed on your server, you can use any PAPI Placeholders the same as you would use them elsewhere.
