# Messages (messages.yml)

Change any text PluginGuard shows in `plugins/PluginGuard/messages.yml`, then run `/pluginguard reload`.

* Colours use `&` codes: `&a` green, `&c` red, `&e` yellow, `&6` gold, `&7` gray, `&f` white
* Words in `{curly brackets}` are filled in for you. Keep them as they are
* A key missing from your file uses the built-in text

{% hint style="info" %}
Two replies are not in the file on purpose: "Unknown or incomplete command" and the "no permission" message. PluginGuard copies them from your server so they match exactly. Change the server's own text and PluginGuard follows.
