A CLEAN, CUSTOMIZABLE & LIGHTWEIGHT HELP MENU
Replace Bukkit's default /help with a clean, paginated and clickable help menu.

ABOUT SIMPLEHELP
SimpleHelp is a lightweight help menu plugin designed to replace Bukkit's default help command with something cleaner, easier to read, and fully customizable.
Instead of showing players the standard Bukkit command list, SimpleHelp lets you create your own help pages with custom headers, footers, colors, multiple pages and clickable navigation.
✔ Custom Headers & Footers
✔ Unlimited Custom Help Pages
✔ Clickable Page Navigation
✔ Custom Colors & Messages
✔ Configurable Navigation Buttons
✔ Easy Configuration Reload
Everything is handled through simple YAML configuration files.
No database. No complicated setup. No unnecessary file reads every time a player opens the menu.
Configure it once and you're ready to go.

✨ FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE
SimpleHelp gives you full control over what your help menu looks like.
• Custom header
• Custom footer
• Custom help pages
• Custom text colors
• Custom previous page button
• Custom next page button
• Custom permission message
Your server's help menu can look exactly the way you want.
MULTIPLE HELP PAGES
Create as many help pages as your server needs.
Each page can contain its own text, formatting and placeholders.
Pages are loaded from message.yml when the plugin starts or reloads and are then kept ready in memory for fast access.
CLICKABLE PAGE NAVIGATION
SimpleHelp uses clickable chat components so players can move between pages without manually typing page numbers.
« PREVIOUS │ PAGE 2 / 5 │ NEXT »
The Previous and Next buttons are completely configurable.
Only the navigation buttons are clickable, while the rest of your help menu remains normal chat text.
REPLACES BUKKIT'S DEFAULT HELP
SimpleHelp replaces the common Bukkit help commands with your customized menu.
/help
/?
/bukkit:help
/bukkit:?
Instead of seeing Bukkit's default command list, players are shown your own SimpleHelp pages.
⚡ FAST & LIGHTWEIGHT
SimpleHelp loads its configured pages and frequently used messages into memory.
This means your page data is already available when a player opens the help menu instead of being repeatedly loaded from disk every time someone runs /help.
Fast Access • Simple Design • Minimal Overhead
RELOAD WITHOUT RESTARTING
Changed something in your configuration?
There's no need to restart your server.
/simplehelp reload
Your configuration and help pages are reloaded immediately.
