With supported resources such as Essentials, you have the ability to sort AFK players who have at least one group specified.

You have two options to sort AFK players:

• Sort them in the last row of player list
• Sort them by priorities if the AFK players have at least 1 group

Sort to last row of player list

To make this work, enable the following options in the config.yml file of TabList:

• change-prefix-suffix-in-tablist.enable
• afk-status.enable
• afk-status.sort-last

After a reload, if a player is in AFK and has at least a group, the player will automatically be at the bottom of the player list.

Setting afk priorities for groups individually

With the release of TabList (starting from v5.6.3) you can set sorting priorities individually for AFK players whose in specific groups.

In order to make this work you need some things:

• change-prefix-suffix-in-tablist.enable -> true
• afk-status.enable -> true
• afk-status.show-player-group -> true
• afk-status.sort-last -> false

To set custom priorities, go to groups.yml and add the afk-sort-priority option to the groups where you want the groups to be sorted when the players are in AFK status.

Conditions

• The sort-priority option will no longer have an effect if the player's is in AFK and afk-sort-priority are specified
• The value must be greater than or equal to 0 (>= 0)
• The higher the value, the lower it will be on the list compared to the others
• If the value is 0 or 1, the player will be sorted to the top of the player list

Example of demonstrating this

  admin:
    prefix: '&6[&4Admin&6]&f '
    sort-priority: 5
    afk-sort-priority: 1
  moderator:
    prefix: '&bmod '
  default:
    prefix: '&7[Default] '
    sort-priority: 1
    afk-sort-priority: 6

In this case, players in the admin group will be sorted at the top of the list, but players in the default group will be sorted at the bottom of the list. The moderator group is intact and will not be sorted anywhere.
