You can add custom blocks handled by plugins ItemMods and MMOItems, the syntax of the block change from MATERIAL_NAME into ITEMMODS_<NAME> and MMOITEMS_<ID>.

blocks:
  ITEMMODS_CUSTOMITEM:
    enabled: true
    display-name: "ItemMods custom item"
    display-color: "aqua"
    # ...
  MMOITEMS_1:
    enabled: true
    display-name: "MMOItems item #1"
    display-color: "aqua"
    # ...

How to retrieve ItemMods name:

  1. Open GUI with /im
  2. Select menu Items
  3. The custom item name is what you are looking for (e.g. customitem #1)

To correctly setup ItemMods, follow the official guide here.

How to retrieve MMOItems id:

  1. Open file custom-blocks.yml in MMOItems folder
  2. Get the number of the specific block (e.g. '1': or '2':)
