How to Set Up Ranks on Your Minecraft Server Using LuckPerms

Create ranks and manage permissions with the most popular permissions plugin

What is LuckPerms?

LuckPerms is a permissions plugin that lets you create ranks (groups) and give them their own permissions. Players can then be assigned to these ranks.

Getting Started & Installation

1. Go to Minecraft, and then go to the "Spigot Plugins" or "Modrinth Mods" depending on your server software.
2. Search for "Luckperms" and install the latest version.
3. Restart your server so it loads.

Creating a Rank

1. Create a new group (this becomes a rank): /lp group vip create

2. Give it a prefix that shows next to player names: /lp group vip meta setprefix "&b[VIP] "

3. Add permissions to the group: /lp group vip permission set essentials.kits.vip true

4. Add a player to the group: /lp user PlayerName parent add vip

Setting Up the Default Rank

Every player starts with the built-in "default" group:

1. Give it a prefix: /lp group default meta setprefix "&7[Member] "

2. Add the permissions every player should get: /lp group default permission set essentials.spawn true

Essential Commands

• /lp sync: forces a refresh of permission data.
• /lp editor: opens a web editor for managing groups and permissions by clicking.
• /lp group vip parent add default: makes a rank inherit another rank's permissions.

Important Considerations

• Permission Nodes: A command only works if the right permission is granted to the right group.
• Updates: Permission changes can take a moment. Use /lp sync if needed.

Conclusion

With LuckPerms you can create ranks, add permissions and assign players in a few commands. A proper permission system for your server.
