What's inside MCST

  1. Change the Minecraft server MOTD

    To change the Message of the Day (MOTD) that appears in the server list, edit the server.properties file located in the root directory of your server files. Locate the line starting with motd= and update the value to your desired text. To create a multi-line MOTD, use the \n character to insert a line break.
    motd=Your Custom Server Message\nSecond Line of MOTD
  2. Upload files to a server using the web panel

    You can upload files directly through the server panel by navigating to the server you wish to edit, opening the 'files' tab, and entering the root directory. Once in the root directory, you can drag and drop files from your local computer to upload them.
  3. Install plugins using the Plugin Manager (Deprecated)

    The Plugin Manager allows for quick installation of plugins directly from the server panel, though this method is now deprecated.
    1. Navigate to your server panel.
    2. Select the server you want to edit.
    3. Navigate to the 'plugins' tab.
    4. Find the desired plugin and click 'Install'.
  4. Add a subdomain to a server plan

    To assign a subdomain to your server, follow these steps in the dashboard:

  5. Make a server private using the server console

  6. Cancel a server plan

    To cancel a server plan, navigate to the 'My Plans' page, select the specific plan you wish to terminate, and click the 'cancel' button. Once canceled, the plan will be automatically removed after a period of 2 weeks. If you change your mind during this window, you can click 're-activate' to restore the plan.

  9. Upload files to a server via SFTP using FileZilla

    Required connection parameters:

    • Host: Found in the settings tab.

    To install plugins manually, upload the plugin .jar files directly to the server's plugins directory through the server panel.
    1. Navigate to your server panel.
    2. Select the server you want to edit.
    3. Navigate to the 'files' tab.
    4. Go to the root directory.
