How do I manage players, operators, and the whitelist?
Add an operator, restrict who can join and ban players cleanly from the Players page.
The Players page saves you from memorizing every command. The same actions remain available from the console.
Step-by-step procedure
-
Add an operator
In Players or the console, add only people who need to run administrative commands.
-
Enable the whitelist
Enable the whitelist, then add the approved nicknames before reloading it.
-
Remove access
Remove the player from the whitelist, revoke their operator status or apply an appropriate penalty.
-
Use a permissions plugin
For a community, prefer groups and fine-grained permissions rather than giving operator status to every team member.
