About SignColors
From SpigotMCSignColors allows all players on the server or people with permissions to add colored text to signs.
This plugin is currently re-developed but I can't estimate a date for the new release!
SignColors allows all players on the server or people with permissions to add colored text to signs. Simply use the '&' character (you can change this in the config) followed by a hexidecimal digit (0-f) to give the rest of the line a color.
Current Features
- Allows players to add colors to signs
- Per color/format permissions
- Take your own color symbol instead of "&"
- Possibility to craft colored signs (ingredients and recipe type can be changed in the config)
- Signs from a [SC] sign cost money (needs Vault!)
- If "signcrafting" in the config is true, you can only write colors on an specific crafted SignColors sign
- Get crafted colored signs back, if you destroy them
- Block certain first lines on signs, like "&1[Buy]" from Essentials to avoid players to create them without permission to do so
- Checks for Updates (can be disabled in the config)
- English, German and Spanish language support
- Possibility to add your own language to the plugin
- Sign database supports SQLite and MySQL
- Uses Metrics (can be disabled in the config)
- Add a "/sc migrate" command, to migrate from MySQL to SQLite and vise versa.
- Make suggestions in the comments
To make a colored sign, write the colorcode (default is: '&') and one of these characters
(0, 1, 2 ,3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, a, b, c, d, e, f, k, l, m, n, o, r) in front of your sign message.
Of course you can write more than one color in one line.
