The permissions for MultiChat are Split into two groups...

1. MultiChatProxy permissions - these must be set on Bungeecord or Waterfall etc.
2. MultiChatLocal permissions - these must be set on your individual Spigot / Sponge servers

MultiChat Proxy Permissions - Must be set on Bungeecord, Waterfall etc.

MultiChat requires many permissions to be given to your players in order for them to use the plugin. The majority of MultiChat's permissions are currently for your proxy server. This means they need to be set on Bungeecord, Waterfall Travertine or whatever proxy you currently use. You will likely need a permissions plugin which is compatible with your proxy, for example LuckPermsBungee or BungeePerms.

I've sectioned off the permissions between "player permissions", "staff permissions", and "admin permissions", but you may want to move them around between different ranks to suit your server, this is just my guideline.

MultiChat Local Permissions - Must be set on your individual Spigot/Sponge Minecraft servers

Please note, prior to v1.9 all "multichatlocal" config nodes were either "multichatspigot" or "multichatsponge" depending on your platform. (And prior to 1.7 the permission nodes were multichatbridge, not multichatspigot)

MultiChat features a built-in /nick command which is provided in the MultiChatLocal part of the plugin. I.e. it executes on your Spigot/Sponge server not on bungeecord. Therefore the permission to use this must be assigned using a spigot/sponge permissions plugin, not your bungeecord one.

The /nick command allows you to give a player a nickname. For example /nick Revilo410 Revilo will make my name in chat display as Revilo instead of Revilo410. To disable a nickname use /nick Revilo410 off.

The /realname command allows a player to find the real name of someone with a nickname.
