Articles on: Bukkit Server Templates

Factions Plugin Pack






With the templates we offer, everyone can have fun without thinking about the boring tasks like installing plugins and configuring them, that's time consuming. Still, there's things you would want to change about the server or learn how to use certain features about it. Here's where we teach you how to ^-^


TO BEGIN WITH



Giving yourself the OP role in-game



By default, you won't have access to all the commands. To fix that you will have to OP yourself from your Multicraft console. Once there, just type the following command:

op <username>
For example: op Notch

The username is case-sensitive so make sure to write your exact username. You can also set your rank to "Owner" by using the following command in-game after you OP'd yourself:
/lp user <username> parent set owner

We'll talk more about the ranks later in this article

The plugin the server is using for the Factions experience is SaberFactions. It's a plug & play plugin, there's not really that much you have to configure about it but in case you want to, I suggest that you contact them on their Discord as they use it as a helping interface:
Saber Factions

The Shop Plugin (EssentialsX)


Plugin Link: https://essentialsx.net/downloads.html

The plugin is not really a shop plugin, it includes most of the basic commands that a server needs including a shop functionality, you can have a look at their wiki at the link below for more info.

Below its also a tutorial on how to create a Buy Sign:



And of course, a Sell Sign:



Ranks & Permissions Plugin (LuckPerms)


Plugin Link: https://luckperms.net/

From the plugin link, the Bukkit/Spigot one is the one we are using and the one that the server supports. For this plugin, we already have an active article which you can check here:
Luckperms Article

To change the ranks easily, you need to use the command /lp editor and then access the link you are given. There, select the rank you want to edit and rename the text that is inside the red square:



Change "Helper" to whatever you want. but make sure not to change anything else, except the sybmols like &2 or &7 which are basically color formatting codes.
After you have changed that, enter the following command in-game:
/lp group Helper rename <new-name>

For help regarding color codes and formatting, here's a photo to help you understand what every symbol does:
