# 📀 How to OP Yourself 📀

Please note that if you just purchased a server you can OP yourself only from the Multicraft console.

1.  Log into your Multicraft Control Panel [here](https://mc.ggservers.com/site/login).

2.  Make sure you’re on your servers page. On the left-hand side of your Control Panel click ‘Console’.

3.  In the text box above the console, type `op <username>`, then either click on `Send`, either press the `Enter` key.

|| ⚠ NOTE ⚠: You need to replace `<username>` with your actual username.


**Example:**

```
 op ggservers
```

||| Should you make changes to who has OP permissions on your server, please use the `/deop <username>` command. This command can be executed by any OP player in-game and it can also be executed via the console to remove the OP privileges from a player.
