# LPC Pro v2

**Chat formatting, player styles, moderation, and more for your Minecraft server.**

This guide covers **LPC Pro 2.6.0**. Start with your existing ranks and chat layout, then turn on the features your server needs. Paper is recommended; Spigot and Folia have the feature limits described in [Requirements](/lpc-pro/getting-started/requirements.md).

***

## Key Features

* **Chat Channels** — Global, local, staff, and custom channels, with permission checks, quick prefixes, and optional automatic channel focus.
* **Chat Formatting** — MiniMessage, legacy and hex colors, gradients, hover text, click actions, and group or channel layouts.
* **Chat Style Editor** — Six ready-made designs, private previews, explicit save, and restoration of the previous saved format.

## Supported Versions

Use the server and Java guidance in [Requirements](/lpc-pro/getting-started/requirements.md). A newer Java client connecting through ViaVersion does not establish support for running that same server version. Folia deliberately disables several features, including inventory sharing and public replies.

The 2.6.0 release checks include a fresh Paper 1.21.5 startup, a private existing-data upgrade, reload, and connected-client delivery. Java 26.3 and Bedrock 26.52 device checks cover the same plugin class files. They do not certify every server version, provider, or Bedrock transport combination.
