Using NametagEdit

Once the server is back online, NametagEdit should be loaded and available for use on the server!

Individual Prefix/Suffix Setup

1. To set a prefix for an individual player, use the /nte player command in the game.

2. To set a prefix or suffix, use the following command: `/nte player [Player] prefix/suffix [Text]`.

- Replace [Player] and [Text] with the desired fields. For example, `/nte player

Daltondorf prefix '[Holy] '`.

3. If successful, you can now press "Tab" to view the player list and see the new prefix added to the game. This can be removed at any time with the command `/nte player [Name]

Adding a Group Prefix

1. To create a group prefix, you must first add a new group and permission within the plugin. This can be done with the following two commands:

- `/nte group add [GroupName]`

- `/nte group [GroupName] permission [permission name]`.

2. Now, as before, you'll want to use a command to set a custom prefix or suffix for the group:

- `/nte group [GroupName] prefix/suffix [Text]`.

3. From here, you'll want to use a permissions plugin like LuckPerms to give the desired group the custom permission you set. If successful, the prefix or suffix you chose will appear

With PlaceholderAPI

- `/nte player Daltondorf suffix '&5 [%essentials_world_time%]'`.
