Players can use Webchat only when logged in to the minecraft server

Hello, i have set webchat-permissions: true, and the permission check works, blocking chat lines when players do not inherit the dynmap.webchat, but for some strange reason players can enter lines that successfully publish on the bukkit chat only when they are actually connected to the minecraft server.

configuration.txt (here: https://hastebin.com/ilobabelix.vbs)

I wrote here because i cannot find anything to work around and make the chat work for users not logged in to the minecraft server. The plugin version is: Dynmap version: core=2.5-Dev201706100401, plugin=2.5-Dev201706100405 The server version is: Paper version git-Paper-1152 (MC: 1.12) (Implementing API version 1.12-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

thank you for help

If a player logs in, then logs out of the game, can they send messages from webchat?

The important lines are 50-59. If a player logs into the game, their IP is recorded and the messages they send will be matched against that record; if a player hasn’t logged in, or their IP has changed since last logging into the game, the message is ignored. banned players can’t chat at all; and in order to chat from the web, you need to login to dynmap (which means creating an account on the server in game with /dynmap webregister) and the user needs the chat permission in order to be able to send messages.

    # (optional) if true, player login IDs will be used for web chat when their IPs match
    use-player-login-ip: true
    # (optional) if use-player-login-ip is true, setting this to true will cause chat messages not matching a known player IP to be ignored
    require-player-login-ip: true
    # (optional) block player login IDs that are banned from chatting
    block-banned-player-chat: true
    # Require login for web-to-server chat (requires login-enabled: true)
    webchat-requires-login: true
    # If set to true, users must have dynmap.webchat permission in order to chat
    webchat-permissions: true

Also lines 333-336. Users can view the map, but are not required to login; even when not logged in, a chat bar is still presented.

# Enable login support
login-enabled: true
# Require login to access website (requires login-enabled: true)
login-required: false

This appears to be happening again in DynMap 3 beta 3 (1.13.2)

I am also running luckperms for permissions.
