How To Set Up Voting On Your Minecraft Server Voting is a fundamental plugin in any growing Minecraft server. Follow these steps to install Votifier on your server along with VotingPlugin To enable voting, you need two plugins NuVotifier allows you to notify the server about any new votes from other sites. VotingPlugin is a vote listener that links your players to these sites and rewards them for voting. You're required to install the plugins manually, a tutorial for which can be found here. After installing the plugins, make sure to restart the server to generate the configurations. Please install the above plugins before proceeding on with the tutorial. 1. First head over to the Open ports tab on your control panel. 2. Choose any port of type CUSTOM. These are open ports on your server that the votifier plugin may use to receive votes from external sites. In our case we had gone with the port 18518, copy the port or write it down somewhere as we will be using it in quite a few steps. (Note - Open ports are different for everyone. 3. Now return to your SMpicnic Control Panel. Once you are logged in, go to the plugins folder. 4. Navigate to and enter the Votifier Folder. If you don't see it, you may need restart your server to generate it. Double-click on config.yml or select the file and choose Edit from the menu above. Don't worry if it seems confusing upon first sight as we'll go through each section in detail. 5. You should change the host setting to host: 127.0.0.1. This ensures Votifier will connect to your server's address. 6. You must change the port: 8192 line to your CUSTOM port you selected in step 2. In our case, we will change port 802 to our chosen custom port. Port: 18518 7. These are the only lines we can change! Now, the configuration of your votifier is complete. Click Save to return to the Votifier Folder. Don't exit yet as we need to copy one more thing. 8. Click on the folder rsa to open 2 files, public.key and private.key. Open the public.key file. 9. After opening the file, you will see a long string of random words and numbers. Simply copy this line and paste it into a notepad or sticky file. 10. Start the server. Once the server is fully up and running, open a new tab to access your server console from the control panel. In another tab, head over to https://mctools.org/votifier-tester. Start by filling in your Minecraft Username. The IP address in which you connect (Without the port), and the CUSTOM port, in my case, 18518. Finally, the public key that we copied in step 9. It should look something like the following: 11. Click Send test vote to be prompted if your vote was successful. You can also log in to the console from the other tab. The message below will appear when a player votes successfully. 12. You have now successfully set up NuVotifier! As for player rewards, that is where VotingPlugin comes in. These rewards can be edited per site by going to File Manager, then navigate to plugins folder and finally to the VotingPlugin folder. Here we open up to edit VoteSites.yml. 13. You will have to set up each votesite manually by registering your server on sites such as https://www.planetminecraft.com/ or https://minecraft-mp.com/, you can set each reward per site or have the server execute a command on the player when he does vote, an example set up of a site would be as shown below. MINECRAFT SERVERS This site will reward the user with $1000 and send him messages saying "Thanks for voting for MinecraftServersBiz." You can reward the player with any amount you like, or run commands for plugins such that the player gets Vote Keys to crate plugins. 1. Congratulations! Minecraft Java Voting is now set up on your server.
