In this section, the following information can generally be managed:

• Discord invite link.
• Discord button text.
• Server information balloons.
• Brief promotional boxes such as player count, event, market or support.
• Referral texts that appear on the home page.

If the Discord link is incorrect or expired, players cannot join the community. Therefore, the Discord invitation link should be created as a permanent link and tested regularly.

7. Maintenance Mode Settings

Maintenance Modeis used to temporarily close the site to visitors or show a maintenance screen. It can be used during installation, design change, market maintenance, payment testing or data editing.

While maintenance mode is on, players may not be able to access normal pages. Admin panel access may continue depending on system configuration. Therefore, when opening the maintenance mode, it should be clearly determined how long it will remain open and what message will be shown to the players.

Incorrect settings in this section may cause players not to be able to register, reset their password or receive account notifications after payment.

Registration System

If the registration system is open, players can create an account on the website. If it is closed, new memberships may not be accepted. If the server works with a special invite system, the recording system can be turned off deliberately. However, if the registration system is forgotten on public servers, players cannot use the market and support system.

Email Verification

If email verification is active, the player may have to verify their email address before using their account. This reduces fake accounts; However, if the e-mail settings are incorrect, real players cannot verify.

• The verification email may end up in your spam folder.
• If the SMTP information is incorrect, e-mail cannot be sent.

• Minecraft username can be made mandatory in the membership area.

15. Common Mistakes

Not updating SEO fields after changing site name

Even if the site name changes, the SEO title, meta description and social media title may remain outdated. In case of a brand change, General Settings and SEO fields should be updated together.

Uploading the logo and background as very large files

Large images cause the site to load slowly. Images should be optimized especially for mobile users.

Misspelling the server port

Even if the Minecraft server is open, the panel can show offline. If the port has changed, the port in Site Settings must also be updated.

Forgetting maintenance mode on

If maintenance mode is left on, players will not be able to access the site. Maintenance mode status should be checked daily via the dashboard.

Not testing SMTP settings

SMTP should work if email verification or password reset is turned on. If it goes live without testing, players will experience account verification issues.

Not checking the launcher link

If the launcher link is broken, players cannot download the file required to enter the game. After the launcher setting is saved, downloading from a different browser should be tested.

18. Frequently Asked Questions

When site settings change, will it be reflected on the site immediately?

Many settings are reflected immediately after saving. However, some changes may appear a few seconds late due to browser cache, site cache system or image cache. Refresh the page after the change and check in the incognito tab if possible.

I changed the server IP but Dashboard still shows the old status. From where?

The setting may not have been saved, the status cache may be showing old data, or the new IP/port may be closed to external connections. Save the setting again, clear the cache, if any, and check that the web panel can access the new server.

Players cannot register, what setting should I look at?

First check whether the registration system is turned on, maintenance mode status, email verification setting, SMTP information and whether the player has registered with the same email/username before.

Is it mandatory to use email verification?

It is not mandatory; but it is useful to reduce fake accounts and increase account security. If e-mail verification is to be turned on, it must be tested that the SMTP settings are working for sure.

Will the site work if I do not fill in the SEO fields?

The site may work; However, search engine and social media visibility will be poor. If organic player acquisition is aimed, the SEO title, description and social sharing image must be edited.

Why does the Launcher link seem missing from the Dashboard?

The launcher link may not have been entered, the launcher page may have been left inactive, or the file link may be incorrect. Market, Vote & Launcher settings should be checked and the download link should be tested.

Can players enter the market while maintenance mode is on?

Maintenance mode may restrict public site access. Depending on the configuration, market, login, registration and other public pages can be directed to the maintenance screen. It is recommended to make an announcement to players before the maintenance mode is opened.
