How To Install Dynmap?

  1. Head over to the Game Panel and stop your server.

Download the correct version of DynMap plugin or mod, depending on which version your server is running.
  1. Navigate to the "Files" tab and depending on your server version, open the "plugins/mods" folder and upload the plugin/mod there.

    If you're using Forge/Fabric, you'll upload it to the "mods" folder. If you're using Paper/Spigot, you'll upload it to the "plugins" folder.

  1. Start your server for it to generate the Dynmap's Configuration file. Once the server fully started, you can close the server.

  2. Navigate to the "Settings -> Network" tab and click on "Create Allocation" to generate a new port for Dynmap. We will use this port for the configuration file.

  1. PLUGINS: If you installed the plugin version of DynMap, open up the plugins folder and dynmap folder in it.

    MODS: If you installed the mod version of DynMap, open up the dynmap folder in the main directory or in the config folder.

    You can now find the file "configuration.txt" from the folder. Open it up and scroll to about 2/3 of the file where you can find an option "webserver-port: 8123". Change this to the port we generated previously.

  2. Click on "Save Content" on the bottom right and start your server. You should be able to access your installed DynMap by visiting the site "http://yourserverip:yournewport".

It's important to use http:// not https:// before the IP!
