Changing Item Names

Hello. Ok so I'm making a KitPvP plugin so when people types /kits it opens up a GUI. In the Chest GUI there are items with names of kits. And one of those items are a potion for a toxic kit. How would I change the names of a potion. This is what I thought it was

Code:java

            // Toxic stuff.
            Potion toxic = new Potion(PotionType.POISON);
            toxic.setSplash(true);
            ItemMeta toxicmeta = toxic.toItemStack(1).getItemMeta();
            toxicmeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.DARK_PURPLE + "Toxic");
            toxic.toItemStack(1).setItemMeta(toxicmeta);
            // Adding Toxic.
            kits.addItem(toxic.toItemStack(1));

kits is the name of the Inventory

 

Does it not work?

 

That will not work because your creating a new instance of the ItemStack every single time you get it.

Try this:

1. // Toxic stuff.
2. Potion toxic = new Potion(PotionType.POISON);
3. ItemStack item = toxic.toItemStack(1);
4. toxic.setSplash(true);
5. ItemMeta toxicmeta = item.getItemMeta();
6. toxicmeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.DARK_PURPLE + "Toxic");
7. item.setItemMeta(toxicmeta);
8. // Adding Toxic.
9. kits.addItem(item);

Ok I tried and it worked! But it didn't turn it into a splash potion. It just made it a normal potion . But I fixed it! I had to add toxic.setSplash(true); before creating the turning it into a item stack so instead of line 4 it would be line 3 and turning into itemstack would be line 4. Thanks for helping me
