Paper Prefix

A simple and flexible prefix plugin designed for your PaperMC server.

Give your players the ability to stand out and personalize their identity! Paper Prefix is a lightweight and user-friendly plugin that allows players to set their own custom prefixes, which will appear in chat, the player list, and above their nametags.

Features

• Easy for Players: Players can set their own prefix and color with a simple command: /prefix set <text> [color].
• Rich Color Support: Supports all standard Minecraft colors, plus unique Bedrock colors like netherite, emerald, amethyst, and minecoin_gold.

  • In-game chat
