A whitelist gates who can join your FiveM server \u2014 essential for serious roleplay communities that want quality players and accountability. This guide covers how to whitelist a FiveM server.<\/p>\n

What whitelisting does<\/h2>\n

With a whitelist, only approved players can connect. Everyone else is rejected at the connection stage. It dramatically cuts trolls, cheaters and low-effort players, at the cost of a barrier to entry \u2014 which is exactly what established RP servers want.<\/p>\n

Method 1: txAdmin whitelist<\/h2>\n

The built-in option. txAdmin has a whitelist mode you enable in its settings, with approval via join requests or a Discord-linked flow. New players hit a “you are not whitelisted” screen with a request code your staff approve in the panel. Good for small-to-mid servers without extra scripts.<\/p>\n

Method 2: ACE \/ group-based whitelist<\/h2>\n

Tie whitelisting to ACE permissions<\/a>: put approved players in a group.whitelist<\/code> via add_principal<\/code>, and use a connecting-player check that rejects anyone not in the group. Identifier-based (license) so it can’t be spoofed easily.<\/p>\n

Method 3: framework \/ script whitelist<\/h2>\n

Most frameworks and many community scripts offer a whitelist tied to a database table or a Discord role (via a Discord bot integration). A Discord-role whitelist is popular for RP servers because it ties server access to your community and application process automatically.<\/p>\n

Which should you use?<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Small server, no extras:<\/strong> txAdmin whitelist.<\/li>\n
  • Community-driven RP:<\/strong> a Discord-role whitelist script, so access follows your application process.<\/li>\n
  • Full control:<\/strong> ACE\/identifier-based for a spoof-resistant gate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n

    How do I whitelist my FiveM server?<\/h3>\n

    Use txAdmin’s built-in whitelist, an ACE\/identifier group check, or a framework\/Discord-role whitelist script \u2014 depending on how much control and community integration you want.<\/p>\n

    Is a whitelist necessary for a FiveM server?<\/h3>\n

    Not technically, but serious roleplay servers almost always whitelist to keep quality high and reduce cheaters and trolls.<\/p>\n

    Can I whitelist by Discord role?<\/h3>\n

    Yes \u2014 a Discord-bot whitelist grants access based on a role, tying server entry to your community’s application process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
