About the Rank Viewer plugin

Dependencies

  • DiscordSRV (Optional)
  • PermissionsEX or LuckPerms (Required)
  • RankViewer v2.2 and above supports LuckPerms 5.0.63 and above, for RankViewer v2.1 and below use LuckPerms 4.453 and below
  • EssentialsX (Required)

Features

This plugin allows users to display ranks as a hoverable tag like this: [R] in order to see their respective ranks or you can display the top weighted rank with other ranks displayed when hovered. It has integration with the discord API (DiscordSRV), ensuring there is no disruption with the messages sent to the discord server. Note that this requires the DiscordSRV plugin, which is automatically detected by RankViewer.

The plugin supports users having multiple ranks, and can display them all in the hoverable tab. If you are using PermissionsEx the order in which they are listed matches that of the permissions.yml file. If you are using LuckPerms then the order is dictated by assigned order.

Allows all colour codes and text changes such as italics, bold, obfuscation, etc. Currently only works with PermissionsEx and LuckPerms, however support of other rank plugins will be made available in future updates.
