Frequently asked questions

How do I give a player a nickname?
Use the command `/name nickname ` to set a custom nickname. The player will see this name displayed instead of their username in chat and above their head.
Can I use color codes in nicknames and prefixes?
Yes, the mod supports Minecraft color codes using the `&` symbol (like `&c` for red, `&6` for gold). You can also use formatting codes like `&l` for bold and `&o` for italic in any name customization.
What's the difference between a prefix, suffix, and nickname?
A prefix appears before the player's name, a suffix appears after it, and a nickname replaces the player's name entirely. Use `/name prefix` and `/name suffix` for the first two, and `/name nickname` for the last.
How do I rename an item in my inventory?
Hold the item you want to rename and use `/itemname `. The item's display name will change immediately and persist when you drop or move it.
