## Features<\/p>\n
### Unlimited Custom Channels<\/p>\n
Create as many staff chat channels as you need \u2014 Staff, Admin, Builder, Helper, or anything you can think of. Each channel is fully independent with its own:<\/p>\n
– Display name and color prefix
\n– Permission node
\n– Command and aliases (e.g. `\/sc`, `\/ac`, `\/bchat`)
\n– Chat prefix shortcut (e.g. type `!hello` in chat to send “hello” to the Staff channel)
\n– Message format with full placeholder support
\n– Priority system for staff list ordering<\/p>\n
Want just one channel? Keep only “staff” in the config and you’re done.<\/p>\n
### Cross-Network Support<\/p>\n
Full BungeeCord and Velocity proxy support. Staff can chat across all backend servers seamlessly.<\/p>\n
– See which server each staff member is on
\n– Track server switches in the activity log
\n– Disable staff chat on specific servers (e.g. lobby, minigames)
\n– Custom server display names via aliases (e.g. `hub-01` shows as `Hub`)
\n– Bridge addon for accurate AFK detection and signed chat support on backends<\/p>\n
### Discord Integration<\/p>\n
Connect your staff chat to Discord with two available modes:<\/p>\n
**Webhook Mode** \u2014 Simple one-way setup (Minecraft -> Discord). Just paste a webhook URL and you’re done. Each channel can have its own Discord channel. Supports rich embeds with customizable colors, authors, and footers.<\/p>\n
**Bot Mode** \u2014 Full two-way integration (Minecraft <-> Discord). Staff can send messages from Discord directly into the in-game staff chat. Supports role-based permissions, custom bot status, and rich embeds.<\/p>\n
Both modes include an **Activity Log** that sends staff joins, leaves, server switches, vanish, and AFK events to Discord \u2014 with per-event embed colors.<\/p>\n
### Staff List<\/p>\n
View all online staff members with `\/stafflist`. Three display modes available:<\/p>\n
**Default** \u2014 Compact, one line per channel:
\n“`
\nStaff (2): player1, player2
\n“`<\/p>\n
**Grouped** \u2014 One player per line:
\n“`
\nStaff (2)
\n player1
\n player2
\n“`<\/p>\n
**Server** \u2014 Grouped by backend server (proxy only):
\n“`
\nStaff (3)
\n Hub (1)
\n player1
\n Survival (2)
\n player2
\n player3
\n“`<\/p>\n
Player format is fully customizable \u2014 show LuckPerms prefix, server name, or any combination.<\/p>\n
### Staff Management<\/p>\n
**Playtime Tracking** \u2014 Track how long each staff member spends online. View daily, weekly, and total playtime with AFK breakdown using `\/stafftime`.<\/p>\n
**AFK Detection** \u2014 Automatically marks inactive staff as AFK after a configurable timeout. AFK status is shown in the staff list and reported in the activity log. Staff can also manually toggle AFK with `\/staffafk`.<\/p>\n
**Spy Mode** \u2014 Allows authorized staff to see messages from all channels, even ones they don’t have permission for. Toggle with `\/staffspy`.<\/p>\n
**Toggle Mode** \u2014 Use `\/sc` without a message to toggle auto-redirect. When enabled, all your regular chat messages are automatically sent to that staff channel.<\/p>\n
**Activity Log** \u2014 Track staff activity directly in the staff chat channel:
\n– Player joins and leaves
\n– Server switches (with previous and current server)
\n– Vanish on\/off
\n– AFK on\/off<\/p>\n
No extra permission needed \u2014 works for any player with access to a channel.<\/p>\n
