Download

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

Add it in your root settings.gradle at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add it in your settings.gradle.kts at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
		}
	}

Add to pom.xml

	<repositories>
		<repository>
		    <id>jitpack.io</id>
		    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
		</repository>
	</repositories>

Add it in your build.sbt at the end of resolvers:

 
    resolvers += "jitpack" at "https://jitpack.io"

Add it in your project.clj at the end of repositories:

 
    :repositories [["jitpack" "https://jitpack.io"]]

Step 2. Add the dependency

	dependencies {
		implementation 'com.github.sgtcaze:Nametagedit:'
	}

	dependencies {
		implementation("com.github.sgtcaze:Nametagedit:")
	}

	<dependency>
	    <groupId>com.github.sgtcaze</groupId>
	    <artifactId>Nametagedit</artifactId>
	    <version></version>
	</dependency>


                            
    libraryDependencies += "com.github.sgtcaze" % "Nametagedit" % ""


                            
    :dependencies [[com.github.sgtcaze/Nametagedit ""]]

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this allow me to change my skin and name?

A: No. This plugin creates fake scoreboard teams with packets.

Q: My client crashes with the reason "Cannot remove from ID#". Why is this?

A: Due to how scoreboards were implemented in Minecraft, a player cannot belong to two teams. Any two plugins that use packets or the Bukkit API which alter team prefixes/suffixes will have conflicts. There is currently no way around this.

Q: My nametag is cut short, even with LongTags enabled!

A: LongTags is only able to disable a longer nametag in the tablist. The name above your head has a different limit (16 characters for prefix and suffix.) We are unable to change this, as this limit is imposed by Mojang.

Q: Can I sort nametags in the tab list?

A: Yes. Read up on how to use it here
