I will be leaving Modrinth. Please go to my GitHub instead.
🛒 TaggedShops adds various color formats to your Shopkeeper names, and spoofs them using packet manipulation.
📦 Dependencies (must-install)
ℹ️ Information
- ⚠️ The plugin doesn't work on non-Paper Bukkit forks!
- A GitHub is not available, but the project is not obfuscated, you can decompile it freely.
- The plugin is licensed with CC-BY-NC 4.0, but you do NOT need to credit me.
📝 Notes
The usage is very simple - you just install this plugin along with its dependencies, make a shopkeeper and change its name like normal - except you can use chatcolors 👍
There are a lot supported formats, as the project uses MatrixColorAPI, which supports... gradients legacy colors and possibly more (check their readme).
It stores name per location, so when moving the villager, its colored name will have to be reassigned.
