How to install CommandGuard

  1. Make sure your server runs Paper and Spigot on Minecraft 1.21.

  2. Download the .jar file from Modrinth and put it in the plugins folder of your server.

  3. Restart the server. Avoid /reload, many plugins do not handle it well.

  4. Type /plugins in the console: CommandGuard should be listed in green. Its config files are created in the plugins folder on the first start.
