DynamicallyMotd
Minecraft plugin for changing the server MOTD every time it gets pinged.
Currently support is only guaranteed on versions 1.20 - 1.21.4
Functionality
DynamicallyMotd is a lightweight Spigot plugin which sends a random MOTD (Message Of The Day) every time it gets pinged.
It takes the MOTD's directly from the plugin's config, which can be customized with custom MOTD's and MOTD colors.
I recommend using MCTools MOTD Creator for creating MOTD's.
The plugin supports Color and Format codes which are already covered by MCTools MOTD Creator.
