How To Enable/Disable/Manage Your Whitelist/Allowlist?
On Java versions of the game, the whitelist is called "whitelist" and on Bedrock it's called "allowlist". The commands are exactly the same, but the command starts differently. /whitelist on - This command is for Java. /allowlist on - This command is for Bedrock.
Whitelist Commands
There are several commands available to manage the whitelist, either through the console or in-game. Below is a list of the commands:
/whitelist on: Enables the whitelist.
/whitelist off: Disables the whitelist.
/whitelist add YourUsername: Adds the player named "YourUsername" to the whitelist.
/whitelist remove YourUsername: Removes the player named "YourUsername" from the whitelist.
/whitelist list: Displays all whitelisted players.
/whitelist reload: Reloads the player profiles from the
whitelist.jsonfile.
How to Enable the Whitelist
Go to the Game Panel and stop your server.
Navigate to the Properties tab and find the Enforce-Whitelist and White-List options. Toggle these on to enable the whitelist.
Once done, start your server again. You can now use the
/whitelist add YourUsernamecommand in the console to add yourself to the whitelist.
Important Note
If your server has crossplay enabled (supporting both Bedrock and Java editions), some players may have spaces in their usernames (typically Bedrock players). In such cases, use the following command to add them to the whitelist:
Make sure to enclose the username in quotation marks ("").
Managing the Whitelist via the Player Manager
Go to the Game Panel and stop your server.
Navigate to Console > Player Manager > Whitelist. From here, you can add or remove players from the whitelist directly.
By following these steps, you can easily manage your server's whitelist and ensure only authorized players can join.
