Q&A for How to Type Colored Text in Minecraft Chat (Works with Command Blocks)

As it says in the "Tips" section at the bottom, you can use Red, Green, Blue, White, Yellow, Dark_Red, Dark_Green, Dark_Blue, and Gold.

Using some formatting in the command. Here is a command for the big red text: /tellraw @p {"text":"TEXTHERE","bold":true,"color":"dark_red"}

As it says in the "Tips" section at the bottom, you can use red, green, blue, white, yellow, dark red, dark green, dark blue, and gold.

Yes, but it requires putting a comma between each text line and brackets over the entire thing, for example: /tellraw @a [{"text":"First Text","color":"First Color"},{"text":"Second Text","color":"Second Color"}] You can have as many lines as you want.

Use /give (Your name) command_block. Don't use the ( )'s. Confused still? Use it like this: /give Sarah0017 command_block.

/give @p minecraft:mob_spawner. Then right click it with a spawn egg to change the mob type. Enderman's heads stick out of the cage.

If you have typed the color with any upper case letters, it will not be recognized by the game. The color you have chosen also might not be an available color, so try other colors to see if they work.

Type this: "/give @p minecraft:mob_spawner". Then right-click it with a spawn egg.

Since 1.9, it could be in an array. Try this: [{"text":"Red!","color":"red"}," ",{"text":"Green!","color":"green"}]

No. Most modded servers have plugins that allow you to format text by doing something such as "&6gold" to color chat. However, for most servers, you need to be a staff member/donor. Just doing /tellraw directly is also not do-able on Mineplex, as you need OP lvl 2 or higher.

Make sure the color you are typing in is lower case - "red", not "Red". The game can't analyze the upper case letters yet, so if you type in upper case letters nothing will happen.

You put it facing up then put commands in them, then activate the bottom one and they will all activate.

/tellraw @a {"text":"Insert Text Here","color":"red"}. Where it says "insert text here," change that with the thing you want it to say.

If they're on the center of your Minecraft game (usually the whole screen), that can be reproduced with /title. Although it can get rather complex, you do /title @a subtitle.

So, add the first command block, with the text and whatever else you want, then add a repeater in front of it. Add as many repeaters as you'd like for a longer pause between texts on screen, then add the next command block with the next command in it in front of the repeater. Continue this process until you are happy. You can use redstone dust if you want also.

Use selectors. It features a basic listing feature built in, and all you have to do is replace "text" with "selector."

On PE, hold the & key. Type the key that appears. Write one of these keys after it: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, a, b, c, d, e and f. Anything you write after it will be in colour. This works in chat and your username.

Add [{"text":"","clickEvent":{"action":"open_url","value":""}}] Basically, you add "clickEvent":{"action":"open_url","value":""} wherever you want your clickable URL to be added.

You can't use the exact command, as you need an invisible armor stand for a floating name tag.

Hold down your crouch key and place the button. (Mine is Z, but the default is Shift.)

/gamerule doWeatherCycle false. The weather will only change with commands, ex. /toggledownfall and /weather.

/title @a title {"text":"Type your text here","color":"dark_purple"} This is the command to get the text all over your screen. You can change the color if you want to.

Replace the @p with the player's name to target him only with the command. Example : /give @p minecraft:command_block.

You add "bold":"true" to the command. For instance, to have bold yellow text, do /tellraw @a [{"text":"Bold yellow","color":"yellow","bold":"true"}].

Yes, you do /tellraw @a [{"text":"Bold and underlined","bold":true,"underlined":true}].

Yes, although it is slightly limiting as you only get 256 characters (including your /tellraw @a), instead of 32,500.

/give @s skull 1 3 {SkullOwner:"

/tellraw @a [{"text":"Purple text","color":"light_purple"}," ",{"text":"Green text","color":"green"}]. TextComponents (the thing after /tellraw @a) are an array with strings/compounds, and you can add as many compounds/strings as you want. The " " in the center is just an unformatted space.

It is a long command. Let's say that you wanted "rainbow" but everything is in different colors. Although lengthy, it is /tellraw @a [{"text":"r","color":"red"},{"text":"a","color":"gold"},{"text":"i","color":"yellow"},{"text":"n","color":"green"},{"text":"b","color":"aqua"},{"text":"o","color":"blue"},{"text":"w","color":"dark_purple"}].

/tellraw @a [{"text":"Italic text","italic":true}]. The "true" does not have to be encased in quotes because it is a boolean (true or false) value, whereas,"italic" is a string (regular text) and needs to be put in quotes to differ it from code.
