Quick Tips: Whitelisting A Server

A whitelist is a list of people that are allowed in certain events, servers, etc. You can whitelist your server in Minecraft, and it's super simple.

First go into the folder where you keep your Minecraft server data. Then go into the server properties. And where it says whitelist=false, erase "false" and type in true.

Here's a diagram:

Before:

whitelist=false

After:

whitelist=true



There should be no space between the equal sign and true.

Next go back to your server folder and open the "Whitelist" file. Put your Minecraft username and whoever else's on it like so:

Example:

njh3
hindmon
happycatfish1

So on and so forth.

You have now whitelisted your server! Congratulations!

FAQS:

I can't get in my server! I blame you!

Answer: Well, prepare to be blamed right back, because you probably didn't put your Minecraft username in the Whitelist or you spelled it wrong.

I did all the things in the last answer, but still can't get on! I blame you further!

Answer: Then you probably did something wrong in the server properties. Make sure there's no periods, spaces, yes's or no's instead of true's and false's.
