Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install MongoDB on my server to use this plugin?
No, MongoDB Loader Plugin only provides the connection tools and file management that other plugins need. You'll need to set up an actual MongoDB database separately, but this plugin handles the communication between your server and that database.
My plugin keeps crashing when it tries to save player data. How do I fix it?
Make sure MongoDB Loader Plugin is loaded before your data-saving plugin by adding it to your plugin.yml dependencies. If you're saving very large amounts of data at once, the plugin will prevent timeout errors automatically, but check that your database connection settings are correct.
What's the difference between depend and softdepend in plugin.yml?
Use `depend:` if your plugin absolutely cannot run without MongoDB Loader Plugin—the server will fail to start if it's missing. Use `softdepend:` if your plugin works fine on its own but can use database features when MongoDB Loader is available.
Can I use this plugin with plugins that don't support MongoDB?
Yes, MongoDB Loader Plugin only affects plugins that are specifically coded to use it. Other plugins will ignore it and work normally.
