Trying to setup a multiboard and make the player names the proper color, but it wants the color as the format stated above, grr :p.

Is there a way to grab this through the GUI triggers without a giant ''if player is number then set value'' set of actions?

If it's not possible in GUI, is there a way to do it with script?

Thanks.

I don't know if this answers your question but you can change every text's color by writing a color code before it.
A color code works like this:

|cff000000

The first part is always |cff,
-then follow 2 numbers that decide the amount of red in the text,
-then 2 other numbers setting the amount of green in it,
-the last 2 numbers are for blue.

So, if you want for example a dark green text, the color code must be |cff003000: 00 red, 30 green, 00 blue.

(of course you can put numbers from 00 to 99).

In conclusion, put in the chart concatenate strings with color code + player name

Check the tutorials section. There is a tut on multiboards that tells you exactly how to do this.
