    as the tittle says the oxide permission lack information. it is way to hard for people to dig information out on how it works. is there a place where i can read alittle about it so i my self might be able to make a place where people can learn about it? right now i have only managed to get information on how i make/delete user groups, add perms to it and assign it to a player. i also found out that there is no reload command for it and it reload when you make a successfull command for it? i would very much like to know how to bring the tittle into the chat. i have created a usergroup called "Helper" and assigned a person to it. and he are in it and it works, however the tittle dont show in chat. how do i make it show?


    Edit: sorry if this post above sounded like i was mad (well i kinda was xD) i have spend litterly hours now trying to find the problem on how to show the damn tittle. and i found no seloution and still havent :S

    There are actually two stickied threads in this forum section on using the permissions system.

    The permissions will update automatically once you've successfully make changes using the console commands. You could edit the file manually while the server is shutdown, but that's generally not recommended.

    Commands:
    • oxide.grant <group|user> <name|id> <permission>
    • oxide.revoke <group|user> <name|id> <permission>
    • oxide.group <add|set> <name> [title] [rank]
    • oxide.group <remove|show> <name>
    • oxide.group <parent> <name> <parentName>
    • oxide.usergroup <add|remove> <username> <groupname>

    If you want to change what is shown for a user's title, I believe you'd need a plugin such as Better Chat or Chat Handler. Oxide's permission system is more of a middleman.

    I've never used it for that purpose, so I'm going based on what I've seen. Did you add the group via the command, or did you edit it manually? Also, do you have any other plugins installed that modify your chat at all?

    i made everything via command. he have the the rank and can do all the perms however the tittle do not show. i have chathandler http://oxidemod.org/plugins/chat-handler.707/ installed. do that do anything? i did not set the admin file my self. it was there by default. however i changet the first letter "a" to a big one "A" and it shows up on chat when i write


    Edit: i think its chat handler that shows the tittle on the screen ^^ damn it! i have spent hours on trying to find the problem. well i guess i have found it now. thanks for your time xD

    I believe it's Chat Handler that is using the permissions information to add your "Admin" title to the chat. You may need to configure the plugin's settings to change how you want those prefixes to display.

    you are proberly right. even tho i know its chat handler then i cant make it show up. i am going nuts soon. this is just a extreamly simple thing that i cant get displayed :S

    My oxide udergroup is called "helper" and the chathandler settings is set to this
    Code:
    "helper": {
      "NameColor": "#5af",
      "Permission": "helper",
      "Prefix": "[helper]",
      "PrefixColor": "#FF7F50",
      "PrefixPosition": "left",
      "PriorityRank": 5,
      "ShowPrefix": true,
      "TextColor": "#ffffff"
    and it still wont show

    You're probably get better help asking in the Chat Handler thread. I haven't used that feature with that plugin personally, but did you try reloading the plugin after making the change to the config? You can reload it by using "reload chathandler" in the server console or RCON. I'd also recommend double-checking that the user is in the helper group in oxide.users.json.
