? Server News

Server News is a simple, lightweight Minecraft server plugin for sharing announcements with your players - without spamming chat or forcing popups.

Players are gently reminded when new server news is available, can read it at any time using /news, and the plugin tracks who has already read it. Optionally, you can reward players the first time they read the news.

Built for modern Paper/Spigot servers with performance and simplicity in mind.

✨ Features

• ? Display server announcements via /news
• ? Track which players have already read the news (UUID-based)
• ? Automatic join reminders (with configurable delays)
• ? Test announcements before publishing (testnews.yml)
• ? Reader data persists across restarts
• ? Optional reward command for first-time readers
• ? Optional reward sound effect
• ♻️ Reloadable without restarting the server
• ?️ Permission-based admin controls

Player Commands

• /news
  Reads the current server news and marks the player as having read it.

• /news reload
  Reloads config.yml, news.yml, and testnews.yml
  Permission: shantekmc.servernews.reload

⚙️ Configuration (config.yml)

? News Files

news.yml

lines:
  - "&6Welcome to Block Horizon!"

? How It Works

1. Admin updates news.yml
2. Admin runs /news reload and /news reset
3. Players are reminded on join if they haven’t read it
4. Players run /news
5. News is shown and the player is marked as read
6. Optional reward is given on first read

No spam. No forced UI. Just clean communication.
