Adding players to the whitelist

Head to the game panel and open the console. In the console, you will need to type “whitelist add playername”. For example, “whitelist add LordNoah”. After you type this command, you will see a message stating “player added to whitelist”.

  • To start typing a command simply press the / (forward slash) key.
  • This is required before a command otherwise it will send as a chat message in game instead of executing as intended.
  • Run the whitelist on command in the chat to enable the whitelist, from there you can add whoever you want to the whitelist and it will prevent people from joining who are not on the whitelist.
  • You can now manage the whitelist from the game itself using the commands listed in the: Whitelist Commands section
  • If you are running these commands in the game chat, you must put a / (forward slash) before the command. Otherwise it will not work. If you are running these commands in the Multicraft console tab, you enter them as you see in the below list.

  • whitelist on: Activates the whitelist.
  • whitelist off: Deactivates the whitelist.
  • whitelist reload: Tells the server to reload the whitelist, which makes changes from using the whitelist add and remove commands take effect.
  • whitelist list: Prints a list of all players currently able to access the server.
  • whitelist add : Replace with the players Minecraft username to add them to the whitelist. Note: After adding someone to the whitelist, you should run the whitelist reload command for your changes to take effect.
