Full changelog

Installation

1

Download from Modrinth

Grab the latest MuteEssentials JAR from the Modrinth page. You'll always get the newest release there, including previous versions if you need them.

2

Connect via SFTP

Open your SFTP client (FileZilla, Cyberduck, or similar) and connect to your Minecraft server using the credentials from your host.

3

Upload to /plugins

Drag the MuteEssentials.jar into the /plugins folder on the remote server. If your server was running, the file will still land cleanly.

4

Restart the server

Send /stop from the console or use your host's restart button. On boot, MuteEssentials loads and generates its config in /plugins/MuteEssentials.

5

Tune the config

Open config.yml and messages-de.yml / messages-en.yml to adjust ranks, ban templates, homes, warps and feature toggles to your liking.

Heads up

MuteEssentials requires Paper 1.21+ and Java 21. Replace the JAR while the server is stopped. Swapping it under a running server leaves the already loaded code in memory while every class that has not been loaded yet is read from the new file, which ends in errors that look like plugin bugs. The built-in updater avoids this: /mues update download puts the new version in the server's update folder and Paper applies it on the next start. First launch creates /plugins/MuteEssentials/ with a default config, message files for DE/EN, and a SQLite database for bans, mutes and block history.
