Whitelist Friends And Players On your (Java Edition) Minecraft Server

Creating a private Minecraft server is simple with the whitelist feature. When whitelist is active, only players whose usernames you've specifically approved can join your server. Here's how to set up and manage your server's whitelist.

Adding Players to Your Whitelist

1. Login to the Ghostcap Panel and select your minecraft server
2. Navigate to the Console section
3. Enter the command whitelist add Username (replace "Username" with the actual player name)

Activating Your Whitelist

After adding players, you need to enable the whitelist functionality:

1. In the Console, type whitelist on
2. Enter whitelist reload to apply changes
3. Restart your server to ensure proper functionality

Managing Your Whitelist

Use these helpful commands for whitelist management:

• View all whitelisted players: whitelist list
• Remove a player: whitelist remove [Username] followed by whitelist reload
• Disable whitelist entirely: whitelist off

Pro Tip

Remember to run whitelist reload after making any changes to ensure they take effect immediately.
