ChatControl - Format & Filter Chat v12.1.8

• Fix | Solved "expected class, got interface" error in GUI for legacy Minecraft versions.
  • Afaik Spigot is making breaking changes without mention. I am not blaming Spigot for attempts at modernizing the API, I am just saddened it happened without a proper announcement as this is a big change breaking all plugins calling inventory view for Minecraft 1.20 and older using 1.21 API.
  • I am committed to keep supporting 1.7.10+ as it is very easy (contrary to other claims).

• Improve | Added Minecraft 1.21 compatibility.
• Improve | Resolved Folia compatibility issues on the latest Folia builds.
• Improve | Added setSound() method to PrePrivateMessageEvent so you can disable PM sounds for players who do not want it using our API.
• Fix | Solved chat not going to the console on modern chat listener when channels are disabled.

• Fix | Solved the [item] variable not functioning properly on Paper 1.20.5+.

• Misc | Relax the internal command blocker to only block /op command. (Context: Some parts of this plugin can be configured to run elevated command prompt so we block the /op command to prevent exploitation).

• !! BREAKING | If you're running Minecraft < 1.14, please move the Metadata section from data.db file (only if you have it) to a new file called legacy-metadata.yml. !! This is a one-time change. Here is a quick video tutorial on how to do this: https://www.loom.com/share/ef4d2867b4564ebda82d6143bfc7964c
• Improve | Made the Format_Discord key for channels be used for both Discord>Minecraft and Minecraft>Discord messages.

• Improve | Certain portions of this plugin lets administrators configure commands to be dispatched at console-level privileges. We now automatically filter commands most used for abuse such as /op to catch future exploits and vulnerabilities.
• Fix | Solved /chc log not displaying remote database entries properly.

Note: Update your BungeeControl and VelocityControl.

• New | You can now use {date}, {date_short}, {date_month} and {location} in variables and customize them in settings.yml.
• Improve | Updated documentation in bungee.yml to reflect the latest changes. Editing server.properties is no longer needed.
• Fix | Solved /chc ? not rendering hover for announce subcommand help with default localization file.
• Fix | Solved no such "getAllSessionData" method error on Minecraft 1.7.10.

Note: Please update VelocityControl in case you use it.

• New | Now supports Java 11+ on Minecraft older than 1.16 by installing our https://mineacademy.org/libraryhelper helper plugin. This makes running custom 1.8.8 forks on Java 17 or even 21 possible.
• Fix | Delayed bungee/velocity player join message to fix occurrences where it was not showing up.
