Inventory Stacks Plugin FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start using this plugin after installing it?
Join your server and pick up items that normally don't stack, like potions or swords—they'll automatically group together based on your server's stack rules. If your inventory is messy, type /stack in chat to organize everything at once.
Can I stack items that the plugin doesn't allow by default?
Yes, you can set custom stack limits for specific items in the configuration file. After editing the config, use /stacks reload to apply your changes without restarting the server.
What's the maximum number of items I can fit in one slot?
It depends on your server version: older versions support up to 127 items per slot, while newer updates allow up to 99 items per slot.
Why are dropped items on the ground merging together?
The plugin automatically merges dropped items to reduce server lag. This keeps your world running smoothly when lots of items are lying around.
Do Bedrock players on my server get stacked items too?
Yes, if your server uses Geyser and Floodgate, Bedrock players can hold and use stacked items just like Java players.
I changed the config but stacks aren't working. What do I do?
Run /stacks reload in chat to reload the plugin files and apply your configuration changes.
Can I make only certain items stack while keeping others normal?
Yes, you can apply a global stack size to all items and then list specific items in the config to exclude from that rule.
What permission do I need to use the /stack command?
You need the STACKS.COMMAND permission, or STACKS.* for full plugin access.
Will stacked items cause lag on my server?
No—the plugin is designed to reduce lag by merging dropped items and keeping your inventory organized, which actually improves server performance.
Can I prevent certain players from holding stacked items?
Yes, don't give those players the STACKS.USE permission, and they won't be able to hold items in larger stacks even if they're on the server.
