EssentialsChat Implementing???

Hello, I was wondering if there is some sort of way to hook into EssentialsChat so I can basically add a tag that any user can set at anytime so the server admin could put in the config:

Member: "{CLANTAG} {DISPLAYNAME}: {MESSAGE}"

So, I am basically wanting to add something so it loads the clan tag when ever just like a Faction tag.

 

Implementing other plugins are as easy as implementing the bukkit.jar, all you need to do is just add it in as an external jar like you would with the bukkit.jar, you might also want to make your plugin depend on EssentialsChat,
you would have to do this in the plugin.yml by adding in "depend: [EssentialsChat]" without quotations, and you might want to dig deeper in if there is a method you should call to hook into essentials on the onEnable

 

webbhead You dont need to hook into essentials just use the .setFormat() heres a chat event where I replace {GANG} with the players gang name:

Code:java

public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e){
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        String gang = getGang(p);
        if(gang != null){
            String gangName = ChatColor.GRAY + "[" + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + gang + ChatColor.GRAY + "]";
            String f = e.getFormat().replaceAll("\\{GANG\\}", gangName);
            e.setFormat(f);
        }else{
            String f = e.getFormat().replaceAll("\\{GANG\\}", "");
            e.setFormat(f);
        }
}
