Want to see your cool ranks in the chat, the tablist, and the nametag without needing a bunch of different plugins? Then PrefixSystem is perfect for you! It lets you show your ranks based onpermissions, all at the same time!

Cool Things It Can Do: 😎

  • Everything Together! You don't need separate plugins for the Tab list, name tags, and chat. PrefixSystem does it all in one!
  • Modular You can create as many gorups as you want!
  • Uses Your permission plugin! The prefixes and suffixes are based on permissions so you can use your current permission plugin to assign prefixes/suffixes!

  • Works on Lots of Minecraft Versions! PrefixSystem works on Minecraft from version 1.8 all the way up to 1.21, and they'll add even more later!
  • Easy to Set Up! It's not hard to get it working on the server.

Commands You Can Use: ⌨️

  • /prefixsystem update - Updates prefixes and suffixes for all online players.
