Hey. In this Tutorial, I will give a breif explanation of the plugin Simple Alias by DarkBladee12, as well as a very quick course on how to use it. It is extremely simple to use, and can be setup through pure in-game commands.

What is Simple Alias?:  Simple Alias is a very handy plugin that allows server Owners to essentialy create "new" commands. Now, you can't actually create a command that does something that is not already part of one of your plugins. But you can create an alias for a pre-existing command. This allows for easier user command access, as well as cool names for your commands.

For Example: Don't want your users typing /spawn all the time? Create the /hub command, which will run the /spawn command, while typing /hub. 

Whoah! Cool! How do I do it? Well, it is really easy. Every SimpleAlias Command starts with /simplealias OR the alias for simplealias, /sa. So start off by typing /sa. Now we input the arguments. To accomplish the above example, you need to know the following information:  1)What you want the command to be and 2)what the original command is. Thats it! No coding involved. The format for creating a single command alias is:  

/sa single <new-command-name> <original-command>. So, for /hub, you would set it up as follows:
/sa single hub spawn


This would make it so that when the user executes the /hub alias, it runs the /spawn command.
Note: Do not include the / when doing this command. For example, do not do /sa single hub /spawn. Just do the command name. Also, if there are multiple parts to the original command, for example /warp apply, and you want to make it only /apply, just put a space: /sa single apply warp apply. The plugin will read warp apply as one command :)

Alright! That's it. I know what you're thinking. That was so easy! I use this plugin on my server, and I can assure you it really is easy, and great to use! And it comes with endless possibilities. For example, I have a GUI creator plugin on my server. I created a GUI with different icons for all of my server games, and when you press on it, it executes a command to warp to that specific game. Now, this is great and all, but to open the menu users have to type around 25 characters in the command, which could lead to a hastle. With SimpleAlias, they just have to do /games, and it opens it up!  

I will try to do a lot more cool plugin tutorials like this, making it very simple for users to understand. This is my first one, so I hoped you guys enjoyed. Reply to the post, or pm me, with any plugin tutorials you would like to see. Make sure to either reply or pm, so I will recieve a notification, rather than having to check here 24/7. Thanks :)
