How to set up voting and vote rewards

Let players vote for your server with /vote, give them a reward for it, and climb the server list.

Players can vote for your server once a day. Votes move it up the server list, and you can give voters a reward in game, like diamonds, XP or money. Voting works on Paper and Spigot servers: a small plugin that adds /vote is installed for you.

Set it up

1. Open your server's panel and go to the Players tab.
2. Switch on your Public page (votes only move you up the list once it's public).
3. In Votes & rewards, make sure Players can vote is ticked.
4. Choose a reward from + Add a reward, or pick Your own command and type any command, the same way you would in game. Use {player} where the voter's name goes, for example /give {player} diamond 3 or /eco give {player} 250. You can add several.
5. Press Save. If /vote doesn't work in game yet, restart the server once.
6. Join the server, type your name under Try it on yourself and press Give me the rewards to check what voters get.

How players vote

1. They type /vote (or /bump) on your server.
2. They click the link in chat, which opens their personal vote page.
3. They press Vote while still on the server, and the reward arrives in game straight away. If they log off first, it's given the next time they join.

The rules

• One vote per Minecraft account per server every 24 hours, and one per home network a day.
• The voter has to be on your server when they vote, and their link only works for 10 minutes.
• Servers in offline mode (online-mode=false) still give rewards, but their votes don't count for the server list, because anyone can pretend to be anyone there.
• Rewards must be free. Selling votes, or anything that gets you more votes for money, isn't allowed.
