This documentation is written for NameplateBuilder >= v4.260326.7 with API >= v2.2.0.
Open the editor with /npb (aliases: /nameplatebuilder, /nameplateui). The UI features a sidebar on the left with three sections. The current version number is displayed in the title bar. Scrollable areas use gold-tinted scrollbars. The ADMIN section is only visible to players with the nameplatebuilder.admin permission.

How Nameplates Work

Each player has their own segment chain - an ordered list of segments that get composited into the nameplate string. The chain determines what appears above entities and in what order. For example, if a player’s NPC chain is [Health Bar, Guild Tag, Elite Tier] with - separators, entities would show:
Every installed mod can contribute segments. Players pick the ones they want, order them however they like, and choose display formats per segment.

​
Built-in Segments

NameplateBuilder ships with four built-in segments, shown with a warm-purple tint in the UI:

​
Empty State

When no segments are enabled, entities display an empty nameplate (no text).
