# Name Tag - v1.0.82 ## MySQL & MariaDB Support, Proxy-Ready Nick Sharing ### PLUGIN UPDATES - **MySQL storage backend** — A new `MYSQL` storage type joins `LOCAL` and `MONGODB`. Point every backend server on a proxy network at the same MySQL instance and nick data — nicknames, skins, and fake ranks — follows players across servers. The `nametag_players` table is created automatically on first start. - **MariaDB storage backend** — A new `MARIADB` storage type uses the native MariaDB JDBC driver for networks running MariaDB instead of MySQL. Same proxy-shared behaviour, same auto-created table. - **Proxy-ready storage docs** — New [[Name Tag/Server Owners/Proxy Setup]] guide covers sharing nick state across BungeeCord, Velocity, and Waterfall networks with MongoDB, MySQL, or MariaDB. ### PLUGIN FIXES - **Fixed "Chat disabled due to missing profile public key" after UUID change** — Nicking a player with UUID spoofing enabled could leave clients convinced the player's chat key was stale, breaking chat until reconnect. The stale key and chat session are now fully cleared after every UUID change. ### INTERNAL UPDATES - Bumped version to `1.0.82`. - Config schema bumped to version `6` — existing configs are migrated automatically with MySQL and MariaDB defaults.
