SimpleRanks Commands

Using commands is essential for using SimpleRanks. The commands are listed below.

  • /rank create
  • /rank setdefault
  • /rank set
  • /rank get
  • /rank list
  • /rank delete
  • /rank importanttext <true|false>
  • /rank bracketcolor <&color>

All of the commands can be found with more information at their corresponding Wiki Pages:


/rank create

This command can only be used by default by those with the simpleranks.use permission. This permission applies to all /rank commands.

Function

This command is one branching off of /rank, which allows to create a rank. You can create a rank, and then call it whatever you'd like, using & color codes. Make sure to type the & color code before the name text.

Example

/rank create &cADMIN results in a rank being created that is RED and [ADMIN] if given to a player


/rank setdefault

Function

Sets the default rank for all new players who join the server. This rank will automatically be assigned when a player joins for the first time (or when no rank is set).

Example

/rank setdefault &7MEMBER All new players will receive the gray [MEMBER] rank by default.


/rank set

Function

Assigns a specific rank to a player. This will override their current rank with the new one provided.

Example

/rank set Steve &cADMIN This sets the player Steve to the red [ADMIN] rank.


/rank get

Function

Displays the current rank of the specified player.

Example

/rank get Steve Returns the rank currently assigned to Steve.


/rank list

Function

Lists all available ranks that have been created on the server.

Example

/rank list Shows all ranks such as [ADMIN], [MOD], [MEMBER], etc.


/rank delete

Function

Deletes an existing rank from the server. Be careful when using this, as it may affect players who currently have that rank assigned.

Example

/rank delete &cADMIN Removes the red [ADMIN] rank.


/rank importanttext <true|false>

Function

Toggles whether a rank is displayed as "important text." This usually affects formatting such as boldness or visibility in chat (depending on your plugin configuration).

Example

/rank importanttext &cADMIN true Makes the [ADMIN] rank stand out more prominently.


/rank bracketcolor <&color>

Function

Changes the color of the brackets surrounding the rank name, separate from the rank text itself.

Example

/rank bracketcolor &cADMIN &7 This will make the brackets gray while keeping the rank text red.


Notes

  • Rank names support Minecraft-style color codes using & (e.g., &a, &b, &c)
  • Rank names are displayed in brackets by default (e.g., [ADMIN])
  • You should create ranks before assigning them to players
  • Commands may be case-sensitive depending on your server configuration

Tips

  • Use consistent color schemes to keep ranks readable
  • Avoid deleting ranks that are actively assigned to players
  • Combine importanttext and color formatting for better visibility
  • Test commands in-game to ensure formatting appears as expected
