Item Meta Lore?

I'm trying to set a color to a lore in item meta but for some reason its not working. I tried putting &3 etc... It just echos that out on the page, I tried using ChatColor but that doesn't work as its in a list. So i'm unsure how to set the lores color. Thanks.

 

Code:java

lore.add(ChatColor.GREEN + "This lore got color");

ChatColor works for me in my plugin.

Try posting your code here.

 

Code:java

for(int i = 0; i < lore.size(); i++){
            String rep = lore.get(i);
            rep = color + lore;
            lore.set(i, rep);
        }
        item_meta.setLore(lore);

 

This is what I do:

Code:java

ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName("NAME");
meta.setLore(Arrays.asList("Lore 1", "Lore 2", "Lore 3", "So on and so on"));
item.setItemMeta(meta);

You can also make a method if you are going to be using a lot of items with ItemMeta.
