Group Synchronization Guide

Follow this guide to setup group synchronization. This allows you syncs your forums groups with the groups setup in your Minecaft server's permissions.

You ideally need to use a tool like PhpMyAdmin or MySQL Workbench to do this.

Step 1

You must first edit the database's structure. In order to do this you need to execute this MySQL line.

Change the prefix and table name to match that of your forum software's.

You can change the 'default' at the end to your server's default user group.

ALTER TABLE  `ForumPrefix_UserGroupTableName` ADD  `servergroup` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'default'

Step 2

For any special groups - like Donators, Moderators, Administrators, etc - you will need to update the groups `servergroup` field in the database to match that of the group on your Minecraft server.

Step 3

Enable the `groupSync` option in your config.yml file.

Now start/restart/reload the server and the group synchronization should now work.
