How to Op and Deop Players Using Usernames

Granting Operator Privileges

Server administrators often face errors when copy-pasting long, hyphenated UUID strings to promote staff. Easy Whitelist provides offline-compatible commands that assign operator status directly through a player's username.

To promote a player, execute:

/easyop <username>

Because this mod's commands are strictly case-sensitive, double-check the exact capitalization of the player's account name before running the command. If the casing does not match, the operator privileges will not apply to the intended account.

Revoking Operator Privileges

When an administrator or moderator no longer requires elevated permissions, remove them using the username deop command:

/easydeop <username>

This immediately updates your server records and strips operator rights from that username.

Permission Setup

To delegate the ability to run these operator commands without giving players full console access, grant them the following permission nodes:

  • easywhitelist.commands.easyop
  • easywhitelist.commands.easydeop
