BookNews 1.8 ~ 1.21.5 -----

A book that show server's news




Version: 6.20
Pretty useful plugin. Thank you :)
------------------------------------------------

Version: 6.17
add support 1.21.3 pls ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

Version: 6.14
Great plugin, but how i can prevent the player for another news after update ?

see ya

Version: 6.14
Great plugin, easy to use and customize. I cannot get it to auto open the book upon login - likely due to another plugin loading a resource pack BUT I set my server welcome message to display a message to check /news and I populate the message with the date of my last book update. Using the book to inform players of server news and plugin updates and info. (Using Spigot 1.20.2)

Version: 6.13
I support this plugin, thank you for it! It turns out to be a long time ago, and I've been looking for it for so long, HAH.

Version: 6.13
Using books as messages or announcements is a great idea and this plugin works great and works exactly as described.

Version: 6.9
Me gusta el plugin y es lo que buscaba, pero me gustaria que tuviera una mejor forma de crear libros o importarlo desde dentro del juego

Version: 6.8
sry but not working for me

[21:19:34 ERROR]: [STDERR] [org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_19_R1.legacy.CraftLegacy] Initializing Legacy Material Support. Unless you have legacy plugins and/or data this is a bug!

Version: 6.7
作者您好!
我想将你的插件二次搬运至 mcbbs.net 请问可以吗
因为第一次搬运的作者已经很久没更新了,停留在v3.6版本
所以我想结合自己的使用 提供一个更合适的翻译/教程

Version: 6.6
A very good plugin, but there is a problem,
I don't know why I turned off the option to check for updates automatically in the configuration file(check-update: false),
but it still checks for updates and takes a long time to do so (there should be no problem with the network), what can I do?
-
Author's response
I think I forgot to check if check-update is set to true in config.yml, I will fix this soon.

Checking for update shouldn't take a long time to do, so I'm not sure what happened on your side

Version: 6.6
After 30 minutes of tormenting how to create new pages on my own, as well as commands for them, I still managed to do it. The plugin is good, I like its work, as well as a simple configuration file, although it was possible to split them into two files, otherwise it was not convenient to scroll down to see what this or that placeholder answers. I like its small size. Also that there is a discord channel of the author in case of support.
The only thing I didn't like was:
You didn't comment out each line in the config, what it does or can do.

There is no way to enable a book only in a specific world.

Version: 6.2
Great plugin! love getting info to players that are new on the server details about the server and such

Version: 6.0
This plugin is definitely on the rise, keep up the great work. Author, feel free to add play.valatic.net as a test server! We average 200+ players.

Version: 5.6
Awesome plugin. Was looking for a good way to inform new users of the server changes. Very easy to set up and configure.

Version: 5.4

Works perfectly, I have other plugins using the same API jar file, zero issues along side the other 60+ plugins I'm using, the config can even be reloaded in-game via command after editing the FTP config with the server on to update Booknews without restarting the server, opens Every time without hesitation on login to inform players and provide links like to the server forums & any website; Works Perfectly on my 1.15.2!
I'm definitely appreciative to the creator of this plugin, It's Perfect!

Version: 4.10

There's a mistake on code, sorry about that

Version: 4.5
Awesome Plugin!! I've been using it a lot but my biggest question is how can I indent or put space at the beginning of a line in the format of the config? I'm getting * Invalid Book Tag* if I try space indentation
-
Author's response
put a color. For example
"1":
|-
First Line
&r Center text

Version: 4.4
So what's new? *Look inside book*. Okay, nice Book News Plugin update. Got link to source, let me check. It's free!? Very useful. Hey friends, this thing legit. You guys must check it out.

Version: 4.0
Good plugin! Can you make a message in the middle? For example, %book news_center%

Version: 4.0
Add the command /booknews toggle [ON/OFF]
80 characters
