Installation

Translation needed for 6.0

This page was updated for JourneyMap 6.0 in English. Translation is pending; the content shown is the English source. See Contributing to help translate the docs.

Installing

Installing JourneyMap on the server is optional. It adds utility for server admins: it lets them restrict some client features per dimension, manage waypoints, and support multi-world setups. JourneyMap clients on any loader can connect to a server running JourneyMap regardless of which loader the server uses.

Fabric, NeoForge, and Forge servers

1. Put the JourneyMap jar in your server's mods folder: (server folder)/mods
2. The first time you start the server after installing JourneyMap, a config file is generated under (server folder)/journeymap/server/<version>/.
3. Connected clients are automatically associated with the server's world id. Each client creates a folder to store its waypoints and map images: .minecraft/journeymap/data/mp/(server_worldid)

Paper servers

26.1 only

The Paper build of JourneyMap is part of the Minecraft 26.1 line of JourneyMap 6.0. It is not available for the 1.21.1 line.

On Paper servers, JourneyMap ships as a plugin rather than a mod. Place the JourneyMap Paper jar in your server's plugins folder instead of mods. The config and per-world behavior are otherwise the same as the mod-loader builds.

Server commands

JourneyMap's server commands live under the /jm prefix. The main one is the waypoint command, /jm waypoint (alias /jm wp), documented on the Waypoint Command page.
