Configuration
MySQL
Plugin uses a local .db SQLite by default. This requires no additional setup but cannot be shared between a network of servers.
If you would like to use MySQL, you can do so by enabling it and filling out the information in the configuration.
mysql: enabled: false ip: "localhost:3306" name: simplenicks username: username1 password: badpassword!
Nickname Length
This is the max length that someone's nickname can be after the colors and formats have been figured out.
So, if you're doing a nickname like
ThisIsAConvolutedExample
the text that will be checked will be ThisIsAConvolutedExample.
⚠️ ℹ️ It's not recommended to set the value below 3, as there may be unintended side effects.
The max amount of characters a nickname should be, not including formatting
(so a name like BillyBob would only count 'BillyBob' - and would be 8 characters)
Setting this number to any number below "3" could cause unintended side effects
max-nickname-length: 30
Nickname Regex
This is the allowed characters in a nickname. The default allows only alphanumeric characters and underscores [A-Za-z0-9_]+ - you can add additional characters into this, use a resource like https://regexr.com/ to make sure your regex properly parses.
⚠️ ℹ️ Using non-alphanumeric characters is generally unsupported and can have unintended side effects.
The regex of valid final nickname characters.
Be warned that putting non-alphanumeric characters may result in issues with other plugins and other unintended side effects
nickname-regex: "[A-Za-z0-9_]+"
Require Permission
These set whether or not specific functionalities require a permission. If you don't know what a permissions plugin is, and you just want the plugin to work, you can set the functions you want to 'false'. If you do know what permissions are and how to use them, you probably don't need this section.

What should require permission set by a permission plugin?
require-permission: nick: true color: true format: true who: false
Nickname Protection
Allows protecting nicknames that are already in use. This does not protect saved nicknames or protect nicknames from being saved.
Online Protection
Only prevents a player from taking the nickname of someone who is currently online. Allows people to use nicknames of people who are offline.
Offline Protection
Prevents players from using nicknames that someone else is actively using, regardless of if they're online or offline, provided the nickname expiry has not been reached.
Offline Protection Expires
Time in days someone needs to be away before their nickname protection expires, set to -1 if you do not want nickname protection to ever expire, but I wouldn't recommend that.
Username Protection
Prevents players from nicknaming themselves someone's username. Only checks against players who have actually logged into the server.
Username Protection Expires
This value controls the number of days someone needs to be offline before their username is considered allowed to be used as a nickname. Use -1 if you do not want the protection ever to expire
Blocks certain names from being used as nicknames
Expiration times are in days, setting to -1 will make it so it never expires
nickname-protection: username: enabled: true expires: 30 online: enabled: false offline: enabled: false expires: 30
Max Saves
Controls how many nicknames players can save, there is not currently an override permission for this, it is applied for all players with save permissions
How many nicknames can be saved?
max-saves: 5
