Plugin does not load
- Make sure you are running Paper (or Purpur/Folia) 1.20+.
- Check that the JAR is in the correct plugins/ folder.
- Look at the server console for errors during startup.
- Make sure you have Java 21 or higher.
Config changes not applied
- Use the reload command instead of restarting.
- Check for YAML syntax errors — missing colons, wrong indentation.
- Use a YAML validator to check your config file.
Permission denied errors
- Make sure the correct permission nodes are assigned via LuckPerms.
- OP players bypass permissions by default — test with a non-OP account.
