# MOTD Manager<\/p>\n
**MOTD Manager** is a Spigot plugin developed in Java for Minecraft 1.21, allowing you to dynamically manage the server’s message of the day (MOTD) via an intuitive graphical interface.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
– **GUI Interface** \u2014 Select the MOTD via a custom inventory consisting of player heads (`PLAYER_HEAD`), with each head representing an MOTD profile.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
– **YAML Configuration** \u2014 Each MOTD is fully configurable in a `.yml` file with native support for Minecraft color codes (`\u00a7`).
\n– **Permission System** \u2014 Each MOTD can be restricted by a specific permission (`Permission-access`). Players without the permission are automatically kicked upon connection.
\n– **Custom Kick Message** \u2014 A kick message (`Messagekick`) can be defined per MOTD profile to inform the player of the reason for being denied access.
\n– **Persistent Save** \u2014 The selected MOTD is saved in the config and automatically restored when the server restarts.<\/p>\n
