Advanced Whitelist
Like a normal whitelist, but with powerful extra features to improve your Minecraft server experience. Players can send join requests directly when trying to connect, making access management easier and more interactive.
Administrators can review and accept requests instantly, keeping full control while reducing manual effort. The plugin also includes Discord whitelist management, request reasons, and protocol logging for important whitelist actions.
Advanced Features
Request System
Players send a join request to an administrator on the server when they try to join.
If an administrator is online, the request is sent directly in chat as an interactive message, where it can be accepted immediately.
If no administrator is online, the request is stored for a configurable amount of time and can later be reviewed with /whitelist requests.
Requests can contain a reason, which is shown in the request overview and in the interactive request messages.
Discord Integration
Users can add a Discord bot using a token to manage the whitelist directly from their Discord server.
The Discord integration includes:
- Slash commands for whitelist management
- A
/requestmodal where users can submit a request with a reason - Optional role-based access for Discord whitelist commands
- Optional role requirements for using the request modal
- Protocol logging to a configurable Discord channel for whitelist changes
