## GroupChat 3.3 is out! This is major update which brings crucial changes related to chats organisation. Chat owners can now set group helpers, moderators and trusted moderators - each rank has defined set of features they have access to It's now possible to mute members in chats and also to lock chat for all members. Messages sent in chats are formatted differently depending on sender's rank. ### Helper rank Can invite and kick players (all regular members). To make player a group helper, type **/groupchat helpers add [member]**. To remove group helper, type **/groupchat helpers remove [member]**. ### Moderator rank Can invite, mute and kick players (all with rank Helper and lower) and can send messages when chat is locked. To make player a group moderator, type **/groupchat moderators add [member]**. To remove group moderator, type **/groupchat moderators remove [member]**. ### Trusted Moderator rank Can invite, ban, mute and kick players (all with rank Moderator and lower), has access to chat locking and can send messages when chat is locked. **How to make player a trusted moderator:** For existing „regular” moderator: **/groupchat moderators trust [member]**. For player who’s not moderator: **/groupchat moderators add [member] trust**. To untrust a group moderator, type **/groupchat moderators untrust [member]**. ### Chat locking Chat locking lets you prevent players from sending messages in a groupchat. Only members with Moderator rank and higher can send messages when chat is locked. Players with groupchat.say.locked permission can bypass chat-locking in all groupchats. To lock/unlock your current groupchat, type **/groupchat lock/unlock**. ### Other changes Added **/groupchat muted**, **/groupchat banned**, **/groupchat moderators**, **/groupchat helpers** commands to show list of banned/muted players and moderators/helpers in current chat. Improved **/groupchat join** tab-completing - it now suggests all public chats player has access to. Added new permissions for features mentioned above. It's quite a lot of strings, you can find them all at https://maciejnierzwicki.pl/minecraft-plugins/groupchat/commands-and-permissions/ This update contains changes to configuration files. It's recommended to copy-paste following code to existing configurations (you don't have to do it only if you rely on default values and don't intend to edit message strings etc.) Lines added (**config.yml**):

**This is the last release of plugin to keep support for very old Minecraft server implementations and beginning from next release, plugin will target Minecraft 1.20 and newer. By looking at bStats, this will have no impact on servers currently using GroupChat as >90% are running it on 1.21.x servers and the rest use 1.20.x builds.**
