Installation
Avoid using '/reload' or plugin managers like PlugMan. They cause issues and are unsupported. Always shut your server down when installing or updating ChatControl.
On Bukkit, Spigot, Paper and Folia, install ChatControl as any other plugin.
- Shut your server down and start it again.
- Drop ChatControl jar into your plugins/ folder.
- Complete the quick starting tour using /chc tour and agree to our Terms of Service.

Unlike most plugins, we have a fully automatic update system between each version of the same generation. That means you can update from any v11.x.x to any higher 11.x.x by just dragging and dropping the new JAR file to your plugins/ folder. Make sure to remove the old one, though. There may be edge cases, so please read the changelogs.
ChatControl will print messages regarding what we changed in your files. Major files such as settings.yml will retain comments even after updating, but anything you put into # comments will be lost. If there's an unused key, we will move it to settings_unused.yml.
