# NounsPicker
2022-10-24 23:36:29 +02:00
This plugin allows users to pick their own preferred pronouns, that are then passed as PlaceholderAPI arguments to use
wherever you want to. The pronouns are picked from a predefined list that only administrators can modify.
## Basic info
### Commands
- `/nouns create <pronoun> <format>`: add a new pronoun to the database.
- `/nouns update <pronoun> <format>`: change an existing pronoun's format.
- `/nouns delete <pronoun>`: delete a pronoun, and remove it from all users.
- `/nouns set <main> <secondary>`: choose your two most preferred pronouns.
- `/nouns list`: list all available pronouns.
### Permissions
- `nouns.base`: the main permission for this plugin. Every user needs this, or they won't be able to use any command.
This is the only permission that is enabled by default, meaning you have to **deny** it if you don't want users to use
the plugin.

## Guides
### Adding new pronouns
After installing the plugin, the first thing you need to do is add new pronouns. Use `/nouns create <pronoun> <format>`
to add a new pronoun to the database. `<pronoun>` is a simple, lowercase value that users will have to type when
choosing it, while `<format>` is how it appears in chat, when formatted (colored, capitalized, ...).
### Setting pronouns
After adding enough pronouns, you can pick your most preferred ones with `/nouns set <main> <secondary>`. You need to
pick them from the ones you added previously with the `create` subcommand, and you can read a complete list using
