MentionAlert

Chat mentions done right. Write @Name in chat and that player hears a sound, sees a title and finds their name highlighted in the message. Lightweight, configurable and translated, with no setup needed.

Features

• Mentions with or without @: @Steve or just steve (configurable, with a minimum length to avoid false pings).
• Sound, title and action bar for the mentioned player. Every part can be turned off or customized.
• Highlighted names in chat with your own format (colors, hex and gradients supported).
• @everyone / @here for staff, permission based.
• Group mentions such as @staff: they ping every online player with a permission. Add as many groups as you want.
• Per-player toggle: /mentions off and players are never disturbed again. The choice is saved.
• Anti-spam: cooldown between pings and a maximum number of mentions per message.
• Offline notice: tells the sender when the player they mentioned is offline.
• Vanish friendly: vanished players (EssentialsX, SuperVanish, PremiumVanish...) are never mentioned.
• English and Italian messages, also per player based on their game language. Every message is editable.
• PlaceholderAPI support and an update checker.
