MOTD

MOTD is a simple and lightweight plugin that lets you fully customize your Minecraft server list.

It supports Sponge, Bukkit, Paper, Folia, Spigot, Velocity, and BungeeCord and works across different versions, including versions that don't natively support server icons.

Why MOTD?

Configuring server list MOTDs can be annoying, especially with platforms like BungeeCord, where the syntax can change and easily cause configuration errors.

MOTD provides a simple and consistent way to customize your server list while adding features that aren't always available by default.

You can use custom player counts, display external players, add colors, and even use Minecraft textures directly in your MOTD.

And when you make a change, you don't need to restart your entire server.

Just reload the plugin and your new MOTD is ready. 🔄
