How to Install Plugins on Your Minecraft Server

Install from the catalog

1. Open your world and go to Mods, then pick the Plugins tab.
2. Search for the plugin, or paste a Modrinth or CurseForge link.
3. Add each plugin you want. They wait in a list until you apply them.
4. Click Apply to server. The server restarts once to download them. This takes about 1 to 2 minutes.

Upload a .jar yourself

1. Go to Files and click Upload a plugin.
2. Pick the .jar file (up to 100 MB). It goes into the plugins folder.
3. Restart the server from the Overview so the plugin loads.

A plugin is installed but does not work

Some plugins need another plugin to start. Economy, shop and auction plugins usually need Vault plus an economy plugin such as EssentialsX.

Plugins that need settings, like a bot token, turn themselves off until you fill in their config file. You find it in Files under plugins/PluginName.

Check that the plugin supports your server's Minecraft version (shown on Software).

Remove a plugin

In Files → plugins, delete the plugin's .jar and the folder with the same name, then restart. Or use Remove all on the Mods page to clear everything installed from the panel. It restarts once.
