How to Whitelist/Allowlist Players

Whitelisting restricts your server so only approved players can join.

Enable the whitelist (JAVA)

1. Open server.properties in the Files tab.
2. Set white-list=true (or enforce-whitelist=true for stricter enforcement).
3. Save and restart your server.

Add players to the whitelist (via console)

1. Open the console in your panel.
2. Type: whitelist add <username>
3. Press Enter. That player can now join.

Other useful whitelist commands

• whitelist remove <username> — removes a player
• whitelist list — shows all whitelisted players
• whitelist reload — reloads the whitelist from file
• whitelist on/off — enables/disables whitelist without going to server.properties

For Bedrock servers

Enable the Allowlist
