I'm getting the error: /tags.lua.lua:0
[ERROR] lua/autorun/tags.lua.lua:8: unfinished string near '"headmanagement) then' 1. unknown - lua/autorun/tags.
What is this?
MrPresident:
Try this...
btw.. do you use something like Notepad++ to edit your lua? Your tabulation is atrocious. lol

Notepad++ is fine. Just keep your lines together.
Also, in case you missed what MrPresident did, from your error, your missing the closing quotation mark.
'"headmanagement) then' should have been '"headmanagement") then'
Also, why use so many table.inserts?
Table manipulation is time consuming (for any programming language, even Lua).
It would be better, optimization wise, to use this ...
--- Code: ---elseif pl:IsUserGroup("management") then
table.insert( tab, Color( 255, 0, 0, 255 ) .. "[Management] " .. Color( 255, 255, 255, 255 ) .. pl:Nick() .. ": " .. msg )
elseif ...
--- End code ---
than what you're doing currently.
Look up "lua concatenation".
Those ".." bring together many string items.

It's necessary to do it the way he currently is. The color objects are not strings, and chat.AddText wants a list of string or color objects.
