LAN Welcome Message
A simple PaperMC plugin that sends a custom MiniMessage-formatted welcome message to players when they join the server, but only if they are connecting from a LAN (Local Area Network).
This plugin was created to share a web browser map that is only available on LAN, ensuring that only players who can access it will receive the link.
Features
- Sends a personalized welcome message to LAN players.
- Supports advanced text formatting and interactivity using Adventure's MiniMessage.
- Configurable message in the
config.yml
.
Requirements
- Minecraft server running PaperMC.
- Java 17 or later.
- Adventure library (already included in PaperMC).
Installation
- Download the latest release of the plugin from the Versions page.
- Place the
LanJoinMessage-1.x.x.jar
file into your server'splugins/
directory. - Start the server to generate the
config.yml
file. - Edit the
config.yml
file to customize your welcome message. Use MiniMessage formatting for colors, hover text, and more.
Configuration
The plugin generates a config.yml
file on first run. You can define the LAN-only welcome message here:
# MiniMessage-formatted welcome message for LAN players.
