Frequently asked questions

How do I protect my spawn from players breaking blocks?
First create a WorldGuard region around your spawn using WorldGuard's selection tools, then run /wgrp addregion [region] [world] to enable World Guard Region Protect on that zone. All block breaking and placing will be blocked by default, even for operators.
Can I let specific players build in a protected zone?
Yes, give trusted builders the wgrp.regionprotect permission and they'll be able to place and break blocks in protected zones. You can assign this permission through your permissions plugin to individual players or groups.
Will explosions still destroy my decorations if I protect the region?
No, once you add a region with /wgrp addregion, explosions from Creepers, Withers, TNT, Ghasts, and End Crystals are blocked from damaging blocks, item frames, paintings, and armor stands in that zone.
How do I create a sub-zone where players can freely build?
Create a smaller WorldGuard region inside your protected zone, then add it as a separate protected region with /wgrp addregion—the plugin allows you to designate specific sub-zones with different build permissions.
