Notepad Configuration

This guide explains how to correctly install and configure C7 Advanced Notepad on your FiveM server. Follow each step carefully to ensure the framework loads and functions as intended.

01. Installing the Resource

1

Download the latest release of the C7 Advanced Notepad;

This folder should contain the folder: c7-scripts-notepad

2

Download the latest release of C7 Notifications;

You can download this for free on our shop. Click here for the link to this resource.

3

Extract the .zip file's

4

Place the folders into your server's resource directory

Your resources folder should look like the following:

resources/
└── [c7-scripts]
    └── c7-scripts-notificaitons
    └── c7-scripts-framework-v3 (if installed)
    └── c7-scripts-notepad

• You should not change the name of the folders as this will prompt errors.

• You should keep it as what it comes as.

02. Adding to 'server.cfg'

Add the following line to your server.cfg, preferably after your MySQL and connection resources:

ensure c7-scripts-framework-v3 (if installed)
ensure c7-scripts-notifications (start first)
ensure c7-scripts-notepad

03. Script Configuration

Altering the script to your preferred configuration has been made easy with our configuration file. To get started, you need to open the file: c7-scripts-notepad/config/config.lua

1

Configuring the Framework

To change the framework of the script, you need to change the following configuration lines:

-- Framework integration
-- "Standalone" = notes are stored per FiveM license (default)
-- "C7FW"       = notes are stored per character (uses C7FW exports)
Config.Framework = "Standalone"
Config.C7FWResource = "c7-scripts-framework-v3" -- Set this to the resource name that provides the character exports below. Example: "c7-scripts-framework-v3"

If the framework is set to C7 Framework, notes will be saved per character. If it's set to Standalone, notes will be visible all the time (saved per FiveM Licence)

2

Configuring the Basics

You must change the following lines:

Config.Command = 'notepad'    -- The primary command to open the notepad
Config.MaxTitleLength = 48
Config.MaxBodyLength  = 10000

Config.TemplatesEnabled = true
Config.PlayerTemplatesEnabled = true
Config.MaxTemplateNameLength = 48

3

Configuring Discord Webhooks

You must change the following lines:

Config.Webhooks = {
  Enabled = true,  -- Set to 'true' if you want to enable webhooks.
  Url = "YOUR_WEBHOOK", -- e.g. "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/..."
  IncludeAutosave = false  -- if false, edits from auto-save won't send webhooks
