PluginVisualizer
Stop editing YAML. Start clicking buttons.
PluginVisualizer turns your most complex plugin configs into visual inventory GUIs — no commands, no text files, no guessing. Just open a menu, click what you want, and it's done.
🎯 What It Does
Every server admin knows the pain: you want to set up ranks, format chat, configure the tab list — but that means editing 3 different plugins, 5 different config files, and praying you didn't break the YAML indentation. PluginVisualizer eliminates all of that.
Every change is made through Minecraft inventory menus. Click a color to set a prefix. Toggle a switch to show a rank in chat. Pick a template and it's applied instantly. No reload commands needed.
✨ Features
⭐ 3-in-1 Rank Setup — The Easy Way
The flagship feature. Create a complete rank across LuckPerms + TAB + EssentialsX Chat in one flow:
- Create Rank — Pick a name, choose a color, select a bracket style, set the weight. See a live preview of how it looks in chat and tab before you commit.
- Set Permissions — Browse 6 categories of common permissions (Movement, Teleport, Admin, WorldEdit, Chat, Economy). Toggle them on/off. Add custom permissions too.
- Display Settings — Choose exactly where your rank shows up: Chat, TAB List, Nametag (above head), Below Name. Toggle each independently. Copy your prefix everywhere with one click.
No more creating a group in LuckPerms, then opening TAB's config, then editing Essentials' chat format. One flow, one click, everything configured.
👑 LuckPerms GUI

❓ FAQ
Q: Do I need all 5 plugins installed?
A: No. Only install what you use. Unsupported plugins appear grayed out in the menu.
Q: Will this conflict with other GUI plugins?
A: Unlikely. PluginVisualizer uses triple-fallback click detection for maximum compatibility.
Q: Can I undo changes?
A: Most changes can be reversed through the GUI. LuckPerms changes can also be undone via LP's own audit log. For TAB and EssentialsX, keep backups of your config files.
Q: Does it work on Bedrock?
A: It works with Geyser/Floodgate, but the GUI experience is optimized for Java Edition clients.
