SimpleMention
SimpleMention is a professional, high-performance Minecraft plugin designed for modern server environments including Paper, Leaf, and Folia (1.21.1+). It enhances player interaction by providing smart chat mentions with visual highlighting and sound notifications.
Features
- Smart Highlighting: Automatically detects player names in chat and applies professional formatting:
- Color: Gold (
§6)
- Style: Underlined (
§n)
- Symbol: Prefixed with
@
- Case-Insensitive Matching: Mention players regardless of how you type their name (e.g., typing
yoursenior will correctly highlight YourSenior).
- Official Auto-Correction: Always displays the mentioned player's official in-game capitalization in chat, no matter how it was typed by the sender.
- Word Boundary Protection: Prevents accidental pings. It only triggers on exact name matches, so typing
YourSeniorn will not ping YourSenior.
- High-Quality Notifications: Plays the distinct
ENTITY_EXPERIENCE_ORB_PICKUP sound to mentioned players.
- Privacy & Control:
- Global Toggle: Players can disable all mention sounds for themselves.
- Block List: Players can block specific users from ever triggering a ping sound for them.
- Folia Optimized: Built using thread-safe scheduling to work perfectly on regionalized/multi-threaded servers.
