BBContest - Automated Events v1.0.3

BBContest v1.0.3 is here! This update focuses on enhancing Discord Webhook customization and improving visual configurations. You can now use local image files for webhook thumbnails with an optional URL fallback, making your setup much easier without relying solely on external image hosting services.

🚀 What's New?

🖼️ Webhook Thumbnail Support for Local Files & URLs

• You can now configure both local files and URL fallbacks directly:

  
  
  
  

  YAML
  

   

  
  

  
  

  file: "farming_bbcontest.png"
  url: "https://example.com/farming_bbcontest.png"
  

  
  

• Local Image Path: plugins/BBContest/images/ (This folder will be automatically created when the plugin loads or reloads).

  
  

• How it works:

  
  

  • If the local file exists, the plugin will upload it directly to the Discord webhook.

    
    

  • If the local file is missing or empty, the plugin falls back to the configured URL.

    
    

  • Note: The legacy direct-URL thumbnail format is still fully supported.

    
    

🎨 Improved Discord Embed Color Parsing

• Added flexible support for various color formats in Discord Embeds:

  
  
  
  

  YAML
  

   

  
  

  
  

  color: "&e&l"
  color: "<#F1C40F>"
  color: "<gradient:#F1C40F:#F39C12>"
  

  
  

• Gradient Handling: Since Discord only supports a single solid color per embed, BBContest will automatically parse and use the first color of the gradient.

  
  

📝 Configuration Updates

• Refreshed and improved the default styling and content for both config.yml and leaderboard.yml.

  
  

⚠️ Update Note

📌 If your server is upgrading from an older version and already has an existing webhook.yml, the plugin will not overwrite your files to protect your data.

Please manually update the thumbnails section in your configuration to the new file + url format to take advantage of the new local upload features.
