Server

server.name

The name of your server goes here and is used throughout Plex.

server.motd

The text here will appear on the server list.

server.colorize_motd

This determines if the message of the day should randomly be colorized. You can disable this option and manually colorize your MOTD.

server.sample

This lets you specify a custom message under the player count in the server list.

server.timezone

This lets you customize which timezone various messages appear in (e.g. ban message end date)

Titles

titles.masterbuilders

A list of players who will show up as a masterbuilder.

titles.owners

A list of players who will show up as an owner.

Banning

banning.ban_url

The URL to be used when a player sees the ban message. The full ban message can be changed in messages.yml.

Chat

chat.enabled

Default: true Determines if the chat system should be enabled. It's useful to turn this off if you're using permissions and want to use prefixes from another plugin instead.

chat.max_tag_length

Default: 64 The maximum length a tag may be in game.

chat.name-color

Default: <white> The default color a tag should be if a player doesn't specify any colors.

System

system

Options: ranks or permissions

This determines how Plex's command system works. If ranks is selected, Plex will use a ranking system and give all players operator status. If permissions is selected, no players are given operator. Instead, every command will have a permission attached to it which can be assigned in any permission system. It is highly recommended to use permissions if you are running Plex behind a proxy such as BungeeCord or Velocity. These proxies rely on permissions to give proper commands to players. On some misconfigured instances, if a player is opped, they may inherit all available permissions from the proxy.

Data

data.central.storage

Options: sqlite, mariadb, mongodb

Select which database software you would like to use. sqlite is the default. Note that if you change which data storage you use, no data will be transferred.

data.central.user

This is the username for whichever database software you use. Note that sqlite does not require a username.

data.central.password

This is the password for whichever database software you use. Note that sqlite does not require a password.

data.central.hostname

This is the hostname for whichever database software you use. Note that sqlite does not require a hostname.

data.central.port

This is the port for whichever database software you use. Note that sqlite does not require a port.

data.central.db

This is the name for whichever database software you use. Note that sqlite does not require a name.

data.side.enabled

Options: true / false

This will enable Plex's Redis functionality.

data.side.auth

Options: true / false

This is whether authentication mode for Redis is turned on or not.

:::info It is highly recommended to have Redis authentication turned on. :::

data.side.hostnane

This is the hostname for Redis. This is required for Redis to work.

data.side.port

This is the port that Redis is listening on. This is requird for Redis to work.

data.side.password

This is the password for your Redis instance. Note that this can be left blank if authentication is turned off.

Entity wiping

entitywipe_list

All items in the list will not be wiped. By default, this includes all mobs as these can be purged with the mobpurge command.

Autowiping

autowipe.enabled

Options: true / false Should autowiping be enabled?

autowipe.interval

Default: 300 How often, in seconds, to automatically wipe entities. Default is 5 minutes.

autowipe.entities

A list of entities to automatically wipe.

Blocking

blocked_blocks

A list of blocks that should be blocked.

blocked_entities

A list of entities that should be blocked.

Global gamerules

global_gamerules

These gamerules apply to all worlds on the server. Gamerules in the generated worlds will override the global gamerules.

Worlds

An infinite amount of worlds can be generated from the configuration file. A few are automatically generated by default. The format for generating new worlds is as follows:

  <world name>:
    name: "Human readable world name"
    entry:
	  # The permission required to enter the world, optional
      permission: "plex.world.worldname.enter"
      # Minimum rank requirement, optional
      requiredLevels:
        - "Rank.ADMIN"
	  # The message to be shown if a player does not have permission, optional
      message: "<red>You do not have permission to enter this world."
    modification:
	  # The permission required to modify the world, optional
      permission: "plex.world.worldname.modify"
      # Minimum rank requirement, optional
      requiredLevels:
        - "Rank.ADMIN"
	  # The message to be shown if a player does not have permission, optional
      message: "<red>You do not have permission to modify this world."
    gameRules:
      - "doWeatherCycle;false"
      - "doDaylightCycle;false"
    parameters:
      grass_block: 1
      dirt: 32
      stone: 16
      bedrock: 1

Note that in the parameters section, this is how the world should actually be generated. The order is from top to bottom. In the example above, a world will generate with one grass layer, 32 layers of dirt, 16 layers of stone, and one layer of bedrock.

For a list of Ranks and Titles, you can refer to the Javadocs: Ranks, Title.

The gamerule section is what gamerules are set for the world by default. The syntax is the official gamerule name, a semicolon, and either true or false.

Updates

update_repo The repo to use for update checking.

update_branch The branch to use for update checking.

Debugging

Options: true / false

The debug option is standalone and enables additional logging. This may be useful for diagnosing issues as more information will be displayed in the console. It is recommended to keep this option turned off.
