CraftersLogin

The Ultimate Authentication System for Minecraft Networks

Paper & Spigot 1.13 – 1.21.x · Java 17+ · Requires ProtocolLib 5.x

What is CraftersLogin?

CraftersLogin is a professional, production-grade authentication plugin for Minecraft servers. It covers the full authentication lifecycle — from first registration to premium auto-login, 2FA for staff, and cross-proxy session synchronization — all inside a single JAR.

Whether you run a solo cracked survival server or a large network with BungeeCord/Velocity, CraftersLogin adapts automatically, requires zero configuration to detect your proxy setup, and scales from a lightweight H2 local database to a full MySQL + Redis cluster.

★ Core Features

🔐 Authentication Modes

CraftersLogin provides two distinct authentication interfaces, selectable via authentication.type in config.yml:

  • CHAT — Classic mode. Players type /login <password> or /register <password> <confirm> in chat. Works with all clients, no dependencies required.
  • SIGN — A native Minecraft Sign editor opens when the player runs /login or /register. Powered by ProtocolLib — the sign is never actually placed in the world. The player types their full alphanumeric password using the keyboard and clicks Done. This completely bypasses chat, making chat-logger hacked clients useless. On registration, the sign opens twice for password confirmation.

🌐 Smart Proxy Auto-Detection

The plugin automatically detects whether it is running as Standalone, behind BungeeCord/Waterfall, or behind Velocity — by silently reading paper-global.yml and spigot.yml at startup. No manual proxy configuration is needed. The plugin adapts its networking and session behavior on its own.

  • Velocity (3.x+) — Full support with dedicated plugin-channel communication.
  • BungeeCord / Waterfall — Full support via BungeeCord and bungeecord:main channels.
  • Standalone — Works out of the box with no proxy configuration.

⛏️ Bedrock / GeyserMC Support

CraftersLogin detects GeyserMC using silent Reflection instead of a hard floodgate-api dependency. Bedrock players are detected and handled without any dependency conflicts or NoClassDefFoundError errors.

🏠 Spawn Management System

A dedicated spawn management system with five independent spawn types:

Type When it triggers
auth When an unauthenticated player joins
register When a new unregistered player joins
join After any player successfully logs in
firstjoin After a player's very first successful registration
respawn When a player respawns after death

Spawn points are saved in spawns.yml and managed via /cl spawn set <type>.

📧 Self-Service Password Recovery

Players can recover their accounts without staff intervention:

  • /recovery set <email> — Link a recovery email to your account.
  • /recovery request — Request a 6-digit PIN sent to your email via SMTP.
  • /recovery confirm <pin> <newpassword> — Verify the PIN and set a new password.

Powered by an embedded JavaMail / SMTP mailer. Compatible with Gmail, Outlook, and any custom SMTP server.

🔄 Cross-Server Session Synchronization

Players authenticated on one backend server stay authenticated when switching to another — no re-login required.

  • MEMORY — Default. Fast, zero-dependency, works for single-proxy setups.
  • REDIS — Session state persisted in Redis using SETEX with configurable TTL. Required for high-availability multi-proxy networks. Automatically falls back to MEMORY if Redis is unavailable.

🗄️ Database Import — Migration from Other Plugins

The /cl import <plugin> <jdbc-url> command streams accounts directly from another plugin's database into CraftersLogin:

  • AuthMe — Full account import from SQLite or MySQL.
  • nLogin — Full account import from SQLite or MySQL.
  • BCrypt passwords migrate 1:1 with no re-hashing required.
  • SHA-based passwords import safely and are flagged for automatic upgrade upon the player's next login.

👻 Player Isolation During Authentication

Until a player authenticates, they are fully sandboxed from the rest of the server:

  • Chat and most commands are blocked.
  • Movement is restricted.
  • The player is invisible to all authenticated players.
  • The player's inventory is cleared and securely stored. It is fully restored upon login.

All isolation features are individually configurable in config.yml.

📊 PlaceholderAPI Integration

Full PAPI expansion registered under %crafterslogin_*%. Exposes registration status, last IP, login count, 2FA status, session data and more to scoreboards, chat plugins, and any PAPI-compatible plugin.

🤝 CraftersStaff Synergy Bridge

When CraftersStaff is installed alongside CraftersLogin, the two plugins automatically coordinate during the authentication flow. A staff member's Staff Mode and Vanish states are suspended until login is complete, then transparently restored — without any staff member having to manually toggle their tools.

🛡️ Security Systems

BCrypt Password Hashing All passwords are stored using BCrypt with 12 rounds by default — an industry standard designed to be computationally expensive and resistant to GPU-based cracking.

Password Complexity Rules

  • Minimum length (default 8 characters).
  • Requires at least one number.
  • Requires at least one special character.
  • Prevents using the player's username as a password.

Have I Been Pwned (HIBP) Integration When enabled, every new password is checked against the Have I Been Pwned database of over 800 million compromised passwords. Only the first 5 characters of the SHA-1 hash are sent (k-Anonymity) — the full password never leaves your server.

Graduated Brute Force Protection

  • 3 failed attempts — Staff members with crafterslogin.notify receive an alert in chat.
  • 5 failed attempts — The IP is temporarily banned for a configurable number of minutes.
  • 10 failed attempts — The IP is permanently banned (configurable).

Captcha Verification An item-based CAPTCHA (no external URLs, no images) can be triggered:

  • Adaptive mode — Only presented to suspicious IPs (new IPs or IPs with recent failures).
  • Universal mode — Every unauthenticated player must pass the CAPTCHA on every join.

Anti-Alt Account System Limits the number of accounts that can be registered from the same IP address. Configure whitelisted-ips to exempt cybercafes, shared networks, or university connections.

Staff Secret Answer Challenge Staff members (players with crafterslogin.staff.security) are required to set a secret answer on first login. If they connect from a new or different IP, they must answer this challenge before regaining access — a highly effective anti-account-theft layer that requires no phone or external app.

GeoIP Country Blocking for Staff Staff accounts can be restricted to only connect from a configured list of allowed countries. Uses any user-supplied GeoIP API endpoint — no external service is hard-coded.

TOTP Two-Factor Authentication for Staff An optional TOTP-based 2FA system for staff using Google Authenticator or Authy:

  • /2fa start — Generate a QR code / secret key to enroll.
  • /2fa confirm <code> — Verify and activate 2FA.
  • /2fa verify <code> — Enter the code on login.
  • /2fa requestremove — Request removal, which sends an alert to online admins.

Designed to be non-mandatory to reduce friction for your staff team.

AFK Session Timeout for Staff Staff sessions expire after a configurable period of inactivity. When the timeout triggers, the player is logged out and must re-authenticate. This limits exposure if a staff member leaves their computer unattended.

📦 Installation

Standalone Server

  1. Download CraftersLogin-3.0.jar from Modrinth, SpigotMC, or the official Discord.
  2. Place it in your server's plugins/ folder.
  3. Install ProtocolLib 5.x in plugins/ as well.
  4. Restart the server. All configuration files are generated automatically.
  5. Edit plugins/CraftersLogin/config.yml and configure your database and settings.
  6. Set spawn points with /cl spawn set <type>.
  7. Run /cl reload after any configuration change — no restart needed.

Proxy Network (BungeeCord / Velocity)

  1. Place CraftersLogin-3.0.jar on every backend server (not on the proxy itself).
  2. Configure a shared MySQL database on all backend servers so accounts are synchronized.
  3. Set network-sessions.storage: REDIS if you want cross-proxy session persistence.
  4. The plugin automatically detects your proxy type — no additional proxy-side plugin is needed.

Migrating from AuthMe / nLogin

  1. Run /cl import authme jdbc:mysql://host/database (or nlogin).
  2. The command streams all accounts into CraftersLogin. BCrypt passwords transfer perfectly, SHA passwords are flagged for upgrade.
