Step 5: Managing Permissions and Groups

  • To create a permission group, use the command /lp creategroup [groupname] (e.g., /lp creategroup moderator).
  • Assign permissions to the group using the command /lp group [groupname] permission set [permission] (e.g., /lp group moderator * permission set essentials.kick).
  • Add users to the group using the command /lp group [groupname] user add [username] (e.g., /lp group moderator user add Notch).
  • Modify other group settings such as prefixes and suffixes using appropriate commands (e.g., /lp group moderator meta set prefix &4[Moderator]&r ).
  • Customize the default group by running commands such as /lp group default permission set [permission] or /lp group default parent add [groupname] to inherit permissions from another group.

Step 6: Managing Individual Permissions

  • To grant permissions to an individual player, use the command /lp user [username] permission set [permission] (e.g., /lp user Notch permission set essentials.kit). Modify other user-specific settings using relevant commands (e.g., /lp user [username] meta set prefix &a[VIP]&r).

Step 7: Additional Configuration and Advanced Features

  • Refer to the LuckPerms documentation for advanced configuration options and features such as inheritance, tracks, and temporary permissions.
  • Explore the LuckPerms configuration file (luckperms.yml) located in the plugins/LuckPerms folder to modify global settings and defaults.
