There is a configuration file, and although most of it is just the player nickname's which you shouldn't need to edit, there are some values that can be customised.
'nickname-prefix' - This is the text that is put before all nicknames. This can contain colour codes.
'nickname-suffix' - The same as nickname-prefix but for after nicknames.
'nickname-limit' - This is the maximum number of characters that a nickname can contain. This number does not include colour codes.
'Cost' - This is how much it costs to change a nickname.
If you are using Essentials/EssentialsX and want Nicknamer+ to be EVERYWHERE then change the 'change-displayname' value in the Essentials config file to false, then reload Essentials.
Also if you are using plugins with PlaceholderAPI support and the %player_name% does not show the nickname then change it to %player_displayname%.
