- Nametags are white / Unlimited nametag mode duplicates nametags
If you want to take prefixes/suffixes, check this guide and use %luckperms-prefix% & %luckperms-suffix%.
For sorting, make sure you configured weights correctly in LuckPerms and then correctly configured sorting by groups.
Sorting by LP weights directly is achievable, but much more complicated and therefore is not recommended.
Disable vanilla belowname, enable unlimited nametag mode and run /tab group _DEFAULT_ belowname &c%health% Health.
When enabling MySQL, it will be used as a data storage and groups.yml / users.yml files will no longer be used.
If you want to upload your configuration to MySQL (or download it back to files), use MySQL conversion commands - /tab mysql upload and /tab mysql download respectively.
After you are done, run /tab reload for the changes to take effect.
These properties require Unlimited nametag mode. By default, you won't see your nametag, you will only see other players' nametags. To see your own, use /tab ntpreview. See the Unlimited nametag mode wiki page for more information.
The most common causes for this include sorting being disabled, weights not being configured correctly in LuckPerms, and enabling sorting by permissions but not configuring it correctly / giving OP to everyone. See Sorting guide for more information.
Give them the tab.staff permission.
yellow-number-in-tablist:
enabled: falseThis feature uses fake client-sided armor stands to display text instead of vanilla nametags. They are only sent to other players to avoid annoying permanent text above head all the time. As a result, unofficially modified clients designed to give user an unfair advantage over others that allow you to see your own nametag will not work for this. To see your nametag, you will need another person to look at you. You can also use /tab ntpreview to temporarily display your nametag for yourself (the command is a toggle).
Player heads are displayed by the client when connection to the server is an online connection. It cannot be directly controlled by plugins. The most common way to reach this is by setting online-mode=true in server.properties.
If you want to allow pirates on your server, you can still display heads for players who bought the game by changing their connections to online connections. Most commonly used plugins for this are FastLogin and JPremium, which change connections of premium players to online connections.
Players are put into columns by the client, it is not managed by the server. The only way is to get more players. They automatically split into more columns at 21, 41 and 61 players (due to limit of 20 entries per column). If you don't mind getting all 80 slots filled with fake player slots, check out Layout feature.
Use "", for example /tab group owner tabprefix "&2&lOwner&r "
This is not possible to control from server side. The only way is to modify the minecraft client.
Most common reasons for a placeholder to not work include:
- Using % symbol by itself, which breaks placeholder starts and ends and therefore breaks all placeholders after it (use %% to display the symbol)
- Trying to use a PlaceholderAPI placeholder without downloading it's expansion (
/papi ecloud download <expansion name>- name is what placeholder starts with) - Trying to use TAB's internal bukkit-only placeholders on BungeeCord
- Trying to use PlaceholderAPI placeholders on BungeeCord without installing bridge plugin
Full list of reasons can be found on the Placeholders page.
Assuming you did configure at least something (the feature is enabled and /tab debug shows any non-empty value as tagprefix), this means TAB failed to apply teams correctly. This is most likely a compatibility issue. Here are the most common ones:
- Bug in outdated eGlow versions
- Using ProtocolLib 5.0.0 dev builds, which are broken
- Installing the plugin on both bukkit and bungeecord, which causes conflict (you'll need to pick one and remove it from the other one)
- Disabling anti-override for teams and another plugin creating teams.
