Panel Guides

Minecraft Panel Tools on XGamingServer

Minecraft-specific panel features — plugin browser, modpack installer, server type changer, player manager, and config editor.

Minecraft servers get dedicated tools in the panel for plugins, modpacks, server software, player management, and configuration. These appear automatically in the sidebar.

Plugin Browser

Browse and install plugins from Modrinth directly in the panel — no manual downloads needed.

Click Plugins in the sidebar.

Filter by Provider (Modrinth), Plugin loader (Spigot, Paper, etc.), and Minecraft version. Search by name.

Click the download icon on any plugin to install it. Click Installed Plugins (top-right) to manage what's installed.

Restart your server after installing plugins.

Modpack Installer

Install complete modpacks (Forge, Fabric, etc.) with one click.

Warning: Installing a modpack replaces your current server files. Create a backup first.

Server Type / Version Changer

Switch between server software types (Paper, Forge, Fabric, Vanilla, Purpur, etc.) and Minecraft versions.

Click Software (or Version) in the sidebar.

The page shows your current server type and version at the top. Below are categories:

  • Recommended: Vanilla, Paper, Fabric
  • Established: Forge, NeoForge, Velocity, Purpur, Pufferfish, Sponge, Spigot, BungeeCord, Waterfall

Each shows the number of available Minecraft versions and builds.

Click any server type, select a version, and click Install.

A yellow warning banner shows if your current build is outdated (e.g., "The latest build is 0.19.0").

Player Manager

Manage players directly from the panel — no console commands needed.

  1. Click Players in the sidebar
  2. View online players with their skins
