# AdvancedChat<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A fabric mod that adds a bunch of useful multiplayer chat features to the game.<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
### Data-driven chat channels<\/p>\n
Allows you to add different channels that players can use to chat in (e.g. per-dimension, local, staff).<\/p>\n
These channels are completely customizable.
\nBy using predicates you can control exactly which players receive a message.
\nNext to that, you can also use placeholders to customize the prefix and actionbar text from the channel.
\n___
\n### Player ignoring<\/p>\n
Allows players to ignore others. This will make it so that chat messages from ignored players aren’t shown to them.<\/p>\n
Players also won’t be able to send private messages to others that have ignored them, showing an error in chat.<\/p>\n
___
\n### Socialspy<\/p>\n
Since this mod adds new ways of private conversations, it also includes a socialspy for staff with different modes.<\/p>\n
These modes allow you to control which type of messages you want to ‘spy’ on, as all of them could be too much.<\/p>\n
___
\n### Text Filter<\/p>\n
Allows you to filter specific text received from the client, like chat messages, commands, signs and books.<\/p>\n
This is based on the vanilla realms filter, so it will also work with any other mods that use it.<\/p>\n
Note: unless styled-chat is installed, messages are filtered on the client. This is needed for validation.
\nIn this case, if a mod redirects chat messages to system messages they will NOT be filtered!<\/p>\n
___
\n### Mod support<\/p>\n
This mod has built-in added support for several other mods.<\/p>\n
For example, vanished players will be taken into account when sending messages and showing receivers.<\/p>\n
It adds a new placeholder that mods overriding chat like styled-chat can use: `%advancedchat:channelprefix%`<\/p>\n
