Solved itemMeta.getDisplayName() not working-ish

Code:

  
                ItemStack item = player.getItemInHand();
                ItemMeta itemMeta = item.getItemMeta();
                itemMeta.setDisplayName(CurrentPickMeta.getDisplayName());
                //Map<Enchantment, Integer> Enchants = player.getInventory().getItemInHand().getEnchantments();
              
                List<String> lore = new ArrayList<String>();
                List<String> loreCurrent = new ArrayList<String>();
                if(itemMeta.hasLore()){
                    List<String> oldLore = itemMeta.getLore();
                    lore.addAll(oldLore);

            }

I am trying to make a gui, and get the item name and put it on an item in the inventory. It gets the item name, but not the custom one. say I had the name as "Kool Pick" on a Diamond pick itt would say Diamond Pick. If you need any more code, ask.

-EDIT found what I did wrong. I double checked it. I swear I looked at that twice. sorry.

What is this class?

I think we need a bit more code because in the one provided i don't see where you get the name.
Also i hope you set the meta back to the item when manipulating them rigjt?

 

probably shouldve added that part of the code to the post. but I declare it a bit higher up.

and what item are you talking about when I set it back? I do not need to set the Current pick back since I am only getting the lore & name

 

in other words, are you setting the ItemMeta of the item, back to it when you change the display name?

Declare what?

 

yes, I am setting the ietmMeta to the display name.

Sorry if I used wrong terminology, not very good at that. But I mean I already "Called and named" the items for the inventory

 

@pingpong1999 right, I belive you that you set the ItemMet of the ItemStack to the ones with the changed name so I suppose that the item ingame has a custom name right?
If yes, we need more code to see why the default name comes back.

 

yes, a custom name. Sorry I forgot to mark this solved I fixed this earlier

 

@pingpong1999 Oh its ok.
Please provide the answer to your question for future reference.
