How To Set Up An Interactive Live Map For Your 7 Days To Die Server - 7-days-to-die Guide

The 7 Days to Die interactive map lets you view your world and track players in real-time through a web browser. This guide combines the Allocs Server Fixes mod with the built-in Web Dashboard functionality on your 7 Days To Die server.

Installing Allocs Server Fixes (Modded)

Caution

If you have crossplay enabled, you must skip this step as modded servers are not compatible with crossplay.

Download Allocs Server Fixes from the official source.
Extract the downloaded files.
Log in to the GhostCap Panel and Stop your server.
Use SFTP to upload the extracted Mods to your server's Mods folder.

Enabling The Interactive Live Map

Stop your server via the GhostCap Panel.
Access File Manager.
Navigate to .local/share/7DaysToDie/Saves/serveradmin.xml.

Paste the following under the </apitokens> section:

<webmodules>
 <module name="web.map" permission_level="2000" />
</webmodules>

Permission level 2000 allows anyone to view the live map without authentication.

Enabling The Web Dashboard With Map Rendering

Stop your server via the GhostCap Panel.
Navigate to Server Options in the sidebar.
Set Web Dashboard Enabled to Enabled.
Set Enable Map Rendering to Enabled.
Start your server.

Viewing Your Live Map

Copy your server's IP address.
Visit ServerIPAddress:WebDashboardPort (example: 123.123.123.123:7800).
Select Legacy-Map to view your live map.

Admins with Web Dashboard login credentials can access additional features beyond basic map viewing.

Rendering A Map
