Modify channelTag colors for Local chat channel

[Catz87]

Hello, I am looking for a way to modify towny local chat colors. I have been able to do it with global, town, nation, and alliance. I do not see a local option in the channel_formats section. I have seen this done on other servers how is this possible? I have posted my chatconfig.yml with the appropriate section i think should include the details needed. I have also included my channels.yml file

I have added a image of my chatconfig.yml better to read maby
Thank you for your support!

chatconfig.yml

channel_formats:
  # This is the format which will be used for GLOBAL chat/channels.
  # This is also the format used when you have modify_chat.enable: true, but use other plugins to handle chat.
  global: '{channelTag}{nationformatted}{townformatted}&a{playername}:{msgcolour} {msg}'
  # TOWN channel types.
  town: '{channelTag}{townformatted}{playername}:{msgcolour} {msg}'
  # NATION channel types.
  nation: '{channelTag}{nationformatted}{townformatted}{playername}:{msgcolour} {msg}'
  # ALLIANCE channel types.
  alliance: ' {channelTag}{nationformatted}{townformatted}{playername}:{msgcolour} {msg}'
  # DEFAULT channel types.
  default: '{channelTag} {permprefix}{playername}{permsuffix}&f:{msgcolour} {msg}'
 
tag_formats:
  world: '[%s] '
  town: '[%s] '
  nation: '[%s] '
  # First %s is the nation tag, second is the town tag.
  # You may also use %t for the town tag and %n for the nation tag!
  both: '&f[&6%s&f|&3%s&f] '
 
colour:
  king: '&6'
  mayor: '&b'
  resident: '&f'
  nomad: '&f'
 
modify_chat:
  # When true Towny will format all ChannelTypes,
  # When false Towny will only format TOWN, NATION, ALLIANCE, DEFAULT types.
  # When false Towny will not format GLOBAL types, leaving other chat plugins to do the work.
  enable: 'true'
  # If true the chat formats will be read from below to allow per world formatting.
  # These can then be altered individually.
  per_world: 'false'
  # If true any player who speaks in a channel in which he cannot be heard,
  # either by being along in the channel or out-of-range of another player in his chat channel,
  # that player will see a message saying they cannot be heard.
  alone_message: 'false'
  # This allows you to set your alone message.
  alone_message_string: No one in range can hear you or you are alone in this channel.
 
# If true players will see [Towny] Modes set: general when they log in.
display_modes_set_on_join: 'true'

Are you talking about the &a in the global channel_format? Which part of the local chat do you want to colour?

[Catz87]

not the &a that is working as i like it.
i have it setup so my global chat tags are green and the player name is light green for global this works great. however i cant modify the local chat .
ive attached a screenshot of what i am
trying to do.

[LlmDl]

I think your best option is to set the colours you want in the channels.yml's messagecolour settings. Then where you want to use colour things in the chatconfig's channel_formats you would put the {msgcolour} tag. Finally where you have {msgcolour} already replace it with the &f.

[Catz87]

This is close. but it appears local and global are pulling from the same channel format. how can i make the playername green in global like it is in the screenshot but when in local their player name is purple.

[Catz87]

update!!!
I have fixed this and it is working the way I want it
Thank you so much for your support you are the Best

Local and General channels both use the Global channel_format, you could change one to use the default channel_format (which you may have figured out on your own.)
