msgDonutSMP

A highly-configurable DonutSMP-style private messaging system for Paper servers (Java 17). Features vanish-aware messaging, persistent ignore lists with GUI management, MiniMessage formatting, PlaceholderAPI placeholders, and optional bStats metrics.

Features

  • Full message flow: /msg, /r, /msgignore, /msgunignore, /msgignorelist, /msgreload.
  • Vanish protection that checks Paper visibility and supports PlaceholderAPI vanish tags (OR gate).
  • Persistent ignore storage with a head-based GUI list for quick unignore actions.
  • MiniMessage-powered configurable message and format output.
  • PlaceholderAPI expansion for last partner and ignore stats.

Commands & Permissions

  • msg.use — Use messaging and ignore commands (default: true)
  • msg.bypass.vanish — Allow messaging vanished players (default: op)
  • msg.bypass.ignore — Exempt player from being ignored (default: op)
  • msg.admin — Reload config/data and admin actions (default: op)

Example commands:

  • /msg <player> <message> — Send a private message.
  • /r <message> — Reply to your last conversation partner.
  • /msgignore <player> — Add a player to your ignore list.
  • /msgunignore <player> — Remove a player from your ignore list.
  • /msgignorelist — Open ignore list GUI.
  • /msgreload — Reload config.yml and data (requires msg.admin).

Config (high level)

The plugin ships with config.yml exposing:

  • options.allow-ignore-staff — Whether staff can be ignored.
  • placeholderapi.differentiate-vanished — Append vanished suffix in placeholders.
  • placeholderapi.vanished-suffix — Suffix appended for vanished players.
  • placeholderapi.vanish-placeholders — PlaceholderAPI vanish tags (OR logic).
  • formats.sent / formats.receive — Message format templates.
  • messages.* — All user-facing text (MiniMessage-compatible).
  • gui.title — Ignore list GUI title.

Use MiniMessage tags and hex colors in format/message entries. PlaceholderAPI placeholders are used when PlaceholderAPI is present.

Notes for Server Owners

  • Vanish detection supports both Paper visibility and configured PlaceholderAPI tags.
  • Ignore data is persisted by the plugin and reloaded on startup.

Technical

  • Java: 17+
  • Target: Paper (1.20.2+)
  • Optional: PlaceholderAPI (softdepend)
