PEX doesn't handle chat; it just gives you a place to store the prefix/suffix.
You'd need something like EssentialsXChat to get them displayed in-game.
As far as I'm aware, most versions of ChatEx aren't compatible with PEX. You can look through their config file to see how chat is being displayed, and change that stuff around to see if you can get it displaying prefixes correctly. I have seen only one time that ChatEx did work on a PEX server. I'd bet 99% of the Minecraft world uses EssentialsChat (Mc 1.8 and older) or EssentialsXChat (Mc 1.8.1 and newer).
ok so should I uninstall ChatEx and install EssentialsXChat instead. (1.12 server)
If you're running a Spigot server, you could run EssentialsX (the base component of EssentialsXChat), and be sure to install Vault (a dependency for EssentialsXChat).
Well... Bukkit/Craftbukkit was officially discontinued at 1.8 also, because one of the authors claimed copyright infringement against the others on the team and shut the whole thing down. (What an ass!) So I'm not entirely sure what version of Essentials you should use.
You can try this bunch of files, taking only the ones you plan to use. It says it's "Spigot Essentials", but that's the only stuff I saw work on a "bukkit" server.
The same Vault dependency applies there, too.
(The EssentialsXChat page is right here, and looks similar.)
it says I'm using CraftBukkit
Yeah. I have no idea where they downloaded that though, since the website (bukkit) doesn't even have downloads for it anymore.
You'll find this excerpt of the Essentials\config.yml file to be helpful too. It'll show you how to get the file setup correctly for prefixes.
Once you get all that stuff together, let me know if you need any additional help with it.
If everything's fine, you can close the ticket below. :-)
