How do I grant in-game permissions with LuckPerms? — Minecraft

Q: How do I give someone just a few permissions?

Instead of '' true, set individual nodes, e.g. lp group moderator permission set some.permission true, and add users to that group.

Q: What's the web editor for?

lp editor opens a visual editor for building complex permission trees without typing every command by hand.

LuckPerms is the go-to permissions plugin for Paper/Spigot servers. It replaces raw OP with proper staff ranks and per-permission control, so you can build exactly the roles your server needs.

Setting up LuckPerms

Install LuckPerms from the Plugins tab on a Paper/Spigot server, then restart.
In the Console, create a group: lp creategroup admin.
Give that group full admin rights: lp group admin permission set '*' true.
Add players to it: lp user PlayerName parent add admin.

For complex setups, use the LuckPerms web editor by running lp editor and opening the link it gives you.

Tip: LuckPerms replaces raw OP for fine-grained staff ranks and per-permission control — it's the standard way to manage staff on a plugin server.
