This version fixes and changes a lot of things internally, honestly ive been holding onto it for so long I've forgotten half of what i did

BASIC RECAP
- Added ChatInjector functionality into the plugin, stops having to redirect people to a different plugin every 5 minutes because they're using essentialsxchat for some reason, this is disabled by default in the config.yml

- Fixed weird issue on Paper 1.21 with /tags reload
- Cleaned up Placeholder Expansion, its less ugly now code wise
- Cleaned up code for checking if user has tag

This update fixes two unique errors that some people have experienced aswell as the help command shall now register correctly.

In this update i have slightly reworked several aspects of the plugin, improving code quality across several different areas.

Libraries have been updated to support 1.20.6 and fix several issues, please report any issues with commands if you come across any. I forgot everything i did though

- Fixed an issue with glow not hiding enchants applied

- Fixes issues regarding skull texture warning in console spamming once the gui is opened.

Major Notice
The plugin has been switched to Java 17

If you wish to use this plugin on a 1.16.5 server (newer versions do not need this), you will need to use Paper (or a fork of Paper), Java 17, and add the flag -DPaper.IgnoreJavaVersion=true to your server's startup parameters.

Here is an example of how that tag placeholder could be used.

~ Added support for Java 8

Note: My hex utils such as <r:0.7> or <g:#hex:#hex> will not work when using this feature.

~ Added %eternaltags_tag_stripped_formatted% - long placeholder, this will do the equivilant of %eternaltags_tag_formatted% but without colouring the tag.

I completely forgot to upload this new update that's been in pre-release for a solid 3 months actually.

Here's your changelog
~ Added conversion for CIFYTags Plugin.
~ /tags convert no longer requires the plugin to be installed and enabled, It will just require the plugin's folder
~ /tags convert usage has been changed to /tags convert <plugin> Supported plugins are DeluxeTags & CIFYTags
~ Adds the ability to sort the tags in the GUI in a customizable way.
~ You can now set a specific tag's GUI Order by adding order: <number> under it, for example, order: 1
~ Fixed DeluxeTags Permission Conversion
~ EternalTags will now convert DeluxeTag's Order over.
~ /tags clear can now clear your own tag.
~ To clear another player's tag, You need the eternaltags.clear.other permission and to type /tags clear <player> command.

~ Added ability to change individual tag icons, These will use the default Tag defined in the tag gui unless the tag had a specific material defined. Example Usage:
~ Animated Tags are now in the configuration file by default, Here is a preview of the tags. The tag will rotate each update, Putting them on a plugin such as featherboard will update them.
The higher the number after the #, The slower the gradient will be.
~ Optimized PlaceholderAPI Placeholders
~ Fixed formatted_placeholder option not working
~ Made the formatted placeholder apply for all of the tag information like description, name, id, ect whenever there is no active tag.
~ Added the ability to favourite specific tags

~ Added the ability to view a tag format for the colour parser, /tags view 10 <tag> Will allow you to view the tag 10 times
Check the github to find the new menu files
~ Optimized the caching for the plugin, The plugin will no longer load everyone's tags on start up, instead it will load the user's tags when they join. You may find in some cases, typing right after joining may not have a tag and that is because it's still loading the tag, it will fix right after
~ Fixed reload command not reloading guis
~ Added the ability to change table name using mysql.tablename config option

- Fixed %description% placeholder not working in different places

~ Added %eternaltags_get_<tag>% Placeholder - Replace <tag> with a tag id to get that tag, Example: %eternaltags_get_eternaltags%
