monban (Whitelist)

monban 3.1.0 is an administration and UX update focused on making everyday access management clearer and more convenient

This release adds shared presentation across supported platforms, interactive pagination, automatic ONLINE profile lookup, runtime whitelist control, and a new Velocity player lookup command

Highlights

• Shared Adventure presentation layer for whitelist, access, help, lookup, and status output
• Interactive whitelist and scoped-access pagination with filter-preserving navigation
• Clickable page navigation with compact ONLINE UUID display
• Automatic ONLINE profile resolution through the official Mojang profile endpoint
• Explicit UUID input remains available and bypasses profile lookup
• Permission-aware /monban help
• Runtime /monban whitelist enable and /monban whitelist disable
• Atomic persistence for runtime whitelist policy changes
• New Velocity /monban lookup <player> command
• ONLINE and OFFLINE identity details with whitelist status in lookup results
• Clearer operator-facing success, error, and validation messages

Downloads

Choose the JAR for your platform:

• monban-bukkit-spigot-3.1.0.jar — Bukkit / Spigot
• monban-paper-folia-3.1.0.jar — Paper / Folia
• monban-velocity-3.1.0.jar — Velocity

Do not install multiple platform builds on the same server

Java

monban targets Java 21 bytecode

Runtime requirements still depend on the Minecraft platform and version. In particular, Paper 26.1+ requires Java 25

Standalone servers

For standalone Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, or Folia servers, Minecraft's native whitelist must be disabled:

white-list=false

monban becomes the whitelist authority and provides /monban whitelist for administration

The whitelist can now be enabled or disabled at runtime:

/monban whitelist enable
/monban whitelist disable

The configuration is saved before the runtime policy changes. If saving fails, the current runtime state remains unchanged

Velocity networks

The Velocity build continues to act as the network access authority

It provides:

• /monban whitelist for global NETWORK access
• /monban access for scoped grants
• /monban lookup for player identity and whitelist information
• /monban status for a runtime access summary

ONLINE player names can be resolved automatically, while explicit UUID input remains available when profile lookup should be bypassed
