📖About Simple Announcement

Announcement Plugin - Full Description

Minecraft Hosting
logo

Overview

Announcement is a simple yet powerful Minecraft plugin designed for Spigot and Paper servers running Minecraft 1.21.x (including 1.21.10). This plugin allows server administrators and authorized players to broadcast important messages directly to all online players' screens in the form of eye-catching titles.

What Makes This Plugin Special

Unlike chat-based announcement systems that can be easily missed in busy server chats, this plugin displays messages as bold titles in the center of every player's screen, ensuring maximum visibility and attention. The announcement title uses a unique small caps Unicode font (ᴀɴɴᴏᴜɴᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ) that stands out beautifully.

Key Features

Multiple Command Aliases

The plugin offers flexibility with 4 different command aliases, all performing the same function:

  • /announcements <message>
  • /announce <message>
  • /brodcast <message> (intentional alternative spelling)
  • /broadcast <message>

Use whichever feels most natural to you!

Full Minecraft Color Code Support

Make your announcements visually stunning with Minecraft's color and formatting codes:

Available Colors:

  • &0 - Black
  • &1 - Dark Blue
  • &2 - Dark Green
  • &3 - Dark Aqua
  • &4 - Dark Red
  • &5 - Dark Purple
  • &6 - Gold
  • &7 - Gray
  • &8 - Dark Gray
  • &9 - Blue
  • &a - Green
  • &b - Aqua
  • &c - Red
  • &d - Light Purple
  • &e - Yellow
  • &f - White

Formatting Options:

  • &l - Bold
  • &m - Strikethrough
  • &n - Underline
  • &o - Italic
  • &r - Reset (removes all formatting)

Visual Display

When you send an announcement, all online players see:

  • Title: ᴀɴɴᴏᴜɴᴄᴇᴍᴇɴᴛ (displayed in gold and bold)
  • Subtitle: Your custom message with color codes applied
  • Duration: The title stays on screen for several seconds, ensuring it's seen

Permission System

The plugin uses a simple permission-based system:

  • Permission: announcement.use
  • Default: Granted to server operators (OP)
  • Can be customized through your permission plugin (LuckPerms, PermissionsEx, etc.)

Usage Examples

Basic Announcement

/announcements Welcome to our server!
