ChatFormatterPro formats player chat using YAML-defined formats.

  • Renders the final chat line, including optional gradient tags and {badge:name} tokens.
  • Adds hover tooltip lines defined by the selected format.
  • Replaces PlaceholderAPI placeholders when PlaceholderAPI is installed.

Not included:


  • Permission/group management
  • PlaceholderAPI expansion installation
