Permissions

Permissions

EliteEssentials supports two permission modes to accommodate different server setups.

Looking to set up LuckPerms? See the LuckPerms Setup Guide for ready-to-use commands.

Permission Modes

Simple Mode (Default)

When advancedPermissions is set to false in config.json, commands use simple access levels:

• Everyone: All players can use the command
• Admin: Only players with OP status or eliteessentials.admin.* permission

This mode is ideal for small servers or servers without a permission plugin.

Advanced Mode

When advancedPermissions is set to true, full granular permission nodes are enabled. This allows fine-tuned control over every command and feature.
