GuardPlus
The upgrade WorldGuard always needed
Paper | Purpur | Spigot | Folia | 1.21.x
WorldGuard 7.0.13+ | WorldEdit or FAWE | Vault optional
GuardPlus wraps WorldGuard in one clean command,
/gp, with full tab completion so you never have to memorize syntax again. Add a guided setup wizard, clickable menus, and tools WorldGuard never had, and protecting your server finally feels easy.
Which download?
There are three builds. Pick the one for your server.
| Build | Use it on | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Regular | Paper, Purpur, Pufferfish | The main build. Pick this if you are unsure |
| Bukkit | Spigot, CraftBukkit, other Bukkit servers | Works without any Paper only features |
| Folia | Folia | Needs a Folia ready WorldGuard (7.0.16 or newer) and WorldEdit (7.4.x) |
On Paper, the Bukkit build skips the knockback setting. Use Regular there.
Why GuardPlus?
| WorldGuard | GuardPlus |
|---|---|
| Long commands you have to memorize | One command with tab completion on everything |
| Flags set by typing values | Click a flag in a menu to turn it on or off |
| No guidance for new admins | Step by step wizard right in chat |
| Hard to see where a region ends | Glowing particle borders you can preview |
| Hard to tell where a flag value comes from | /gp flaginfo shows the exact region it comes from |
| No way to sell or rent land | Built in region sales and rentals with signs |
