How to hook into TAB?
Hooking into TAB is pretty simple. Most of the job is already done by the plugin, changing your nickname, rank and skin.
However, depending on your current configuration of TAB, your tab name and nametag name might not get updated automatically, because they simply depend on another placeholder (by default it's an Essentials placeholder) which doesn't get updated on the player.
This is the reason we have to manually change the configuration, in order to get the result we want!
To fix this, there are 3 steps you need to follow:
- Install the
Player
PAPI extension on your server by doing:/papi ecloud download Player
and/papi reload
- Go into TAB
config.yml
file and enableunlimited-nametag-mode
(you canCTRL + F
to find it faster since the config is quite messy) - Go into TAB
groups.yml
file and setcustomtabname
andcustomtagname
to:"%player_name%"
You can now refresh the TAB plugin by doing /tab reload
and you're good to go!
