Supported server versions

EssentialsX officially supports the Paper server software. Specifically, EssentialsX is designed to work on the following Minecraft versions:

• ✅ 1.21.8 - EssentialsX actively develops for and supports this version.
• ⚠️ 1.8.8, 1.9.4, 1.10.2, 1.11.2, 1.12.2, 1.13.2, 1.14.4, 1.15.2, 1.16.5, 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.4, and 1.20.6 - these versions are still supported, but are not a priority for us, and may be dropped in a future release.
• ⚠️ Spigot is still supported but is a low priority for us, and may be dropped in a future release.

We recommend using the latest version of Paper. EssentialsX includes significant improvements that require Paper, including:

• Paper's async chunk loading reduces lag spikes during player teleports.
  CraftBukkit and Spigot do not support async chunk loading from plugins.
• /anvil, /grindstone, /cartographytable, /loom, /smithingtable, and /stonecutter are only supported on Paper.
  CraftBukkit and Spigot do not support the API needed for these.
• /recipe on 1.12+ requires Paper to avoid a dupe bug introduced by CraftBukkit and Spigot.
• Paper contains countless overall performance optimisations over CraftBukkit and Spigot.

EssentialsX does not support the following Minecraft versions or server software:

• ℹ️ Folia is not supported yet. We are working on proper Folia support.
  Do not attempt to use current versions of EssentialsX on Folia or forks of it - you may lose userdata.
• 🛑 "Ultra-performance" Paper forks including Akarin, Yatopia, and similar projects.
  These often perform non-standard behaviour and can break your worlds and installed plugins.
• 🛑 Mohist and its associated projects - The Mohist project is known to be sketchy, and has, in the past, tricked users into deleting official EssentialsX jars and installing an unofficial build.
  We cannot guarantee the safety or functionality of unofficial builds of EssentialsX; you should avoid using Mohist where possible.
• 🛑 Other Forge/Bukkit hybrid servers including Cauldron, Thermos, Magma, CatServer, Arclight - EssentialsX is built for the Bukkit API, which does not properly support mods.
  For modded servers running Minecraft Forge, NeoForge or Fabric, you should use FTB Essentials.
• 🛑 1.7.10 or below.

Upgrading to 2.21.2

If you're upgrading from 2.21.1, you can keep your current EssentialsX config file. There are no new changes to configuration files in this release.

Upgrading from 2.21.0 or older versions of EssentialsX? See the previous update changelogs.

Known issues

Anchor charges deplete on Spigot even when EssentialsX Spawn overrides the spawn location

Discord: Support for SocialSpy with new private-chat message type (#​5620)

You can now relay SocialSpy messages to Discord using the new private-chat message type.
This is sent whenever a user sends a private message on the Minecraft server, unless they also have the essentials.chat.spy.exempt permission.

# Configure which Discord channels different messages will be sent to.
# You can either use the names of the channels listed above or just the id of a channel.

# If an invalid channel is used, the primary channel will be used instead.
#

# To disable a message from showing, use 'none' as the channel name.
message-types:
  ...
  # Message sent when a private message (/msg, /whisper, etc.) is sent on the Minecraft Server.
  private-chat: none

# The following entries allow you to customize the formatting of messages sent by the plugin.
# Each message has a description of how it is used along with placeholders that can be used.
messages:
  ...
  # This is the message that is used to relay minecraft private messages in Discord.
  # The following placeholders can be used here:
  # - {sender-username}: The username of the player sending the message
  # - {sender-displayname}: The display name of the player sending the message (This would be their nickname)
  # - {receiver-username}: The username of the player receiving the message
  # - {receiver-displayname}: The display name of the player receiving the message (This would be their nickname)
  # - {message}: The content of the message being sent
  pms-to-discord: "[SocialSpy] {sender-username} -> {receiver-username}: {message}"
