NOOB needs whitelist help

[gone2lake]

Sorry if this is totally stupid....

Could someone give me an example of the whitelist file for a vanilla Minecraft server with these fake names, PLEASE?

Or any combination of 2 or more names, please? Thanks

Once you have the "white-list" enabled in your server.properties you would just need to place the allowed usernames into your "whitelist.json" file.

This would be an example.

Code: Select all

[
  {
    "name": "kraze"
  },
  {
    "name": "acoolerkraze"
  }
]

Thanks! I knew it was more than just notepad'n a file called whitelist.txt and adding names. I've no experience with the json files at all. Thanks AGAIN, I no longer feel stupid

Is there a common link or something to help beginners with the .json files?

Originally it was just a .txt file. I guess they recently changed it. I'm sure there is more information on .json files somewhere, but in this case to add more users to your list just recreate whatever is above it.

Code: Select all

[
  {
    "name": "kraze"
  },
  {
    "name": "acoolerkraze"
  },
  {
    "name": "kraze21"
  },
  {
    "name": "notkraze"
  }
]

From your console in the Server Control tab, you can also send the command "whitelist add <playername>", or use it in game, if you're opped.

If you make a change to the whitelist file while the game is running, you can use "whitelist reload" to not have to restart the server after the change and have it take effect immediately.

(Commands sent in the in-game chat require a leading "/", such as "/whitelist reload")
