About

Description

Use formatting codes in anvils to style your item names

Discord

This is an unofficial port of Colorful Anvils by rogi27 for Minecraft 1.21.8+.

How to Use

  1. Place an item in an anvil
  2. Type your name with formatting codes (e.g. &c&lFire Sword)
  3. Take the item, it now has colored text

Check the gallery for examples of each formatting style.

No Character Limit

Vanilla Minecraft caps anvil input at 50 characters. This mod removes that cap entirely, so you can type long gradients, lore lines, and complex formatting without getting cut off.

Formatting Codes

Code Effect
&0&9, &a&f Colors
&l Bold
&o Italic
&n Underline
&m Strikethrough
&k Obfuscated
&r Reset
&#RRGGBB Hex color
&&c Escape (shows literal &c)

Advanced

  • <gradient:#ff0000:#00ff00>text</gradient> for gradients
  • <rainbow>text</rainbow> for rainbow text

Lore Support

Add lore lines using | as a separator:

  • &c&lFire Sword|&7Burns everything|&eDeals fire damage

The part before the first | becomes the item name, everything after it becomes lore lines. Renaming without a | clears any lore that was already there.

Server Config

The config file lives at config/colorfulanvils.json. It lets you toggle colors, formatting, hex, gradient, rainbow, and lore on or off individually. Permission support through fabric-permissions-api is available but off by default.

Permissions (when enabled):

  • colorfulanvils.use: basic formatting
  • colorfulanvils.lore: lore support
  • colorfulanvils.gradient: gradient text
  • colorfulanvils.rainbow: rainbow text

Requirements

  • Minecraft 1.21.8+
  • Fabric Loader
  • Fabric API
