20 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I get my first More Villagers villager?
Place the workstation block for the profession you want near an unemployed villager, and they will claim it and take on that job. If you want a specific profession, craft its workstation (like the 
Blueprint Table or 
Mining Bench) and let a jobless villager path to it.
Blueprint Table or Mining Bench) and let a jobless villager path to it.Why won't my villager take the job from the workstation?
The villager must be unemployed and able to reach the block, and no other villager can have already claimed it. Break and replace the workstation, or move it closer, to reset the claim.
What does the Blueprint Table do?
It is the workstation for the Architect profession, which trades building-related items. Place it to convert an unemployed villager into an Architect.
What is the 
Purpur Altar used for?
The Purpur Altar is tied to the mod's special villager mechanics rather than a standard profession workstation. Check the mod's in-game guide or the wiki's processes section for its exact use before building around it.

Decayed Workbench?
The Decayed Workbench is a special block associated with one of the mod's villager types, not a normal crafting station. Interact with it as the mod intends rather than treating it like a vanilla crafting table.

Trade with them repeatedly like any vanilla villager; each trade fills their experience bar and promotes them to the next tier. Higher tiers unlock better trades from that profession.
Can I disable a specific profession I don't want?
Yes, the mod's configuration file lets you toggle individual professions on or off. Edit the config and reload so those villagers stop spawning or being obtainable.
How do I stop More Villagers villagers from spawning in my world?
Use the mod's spawn configuration options to disable natural spawning for the professions you don't want. This is separate from disabling the profession itself, so check both settings.
Will More Villagers conflict with other villager mods?
It generally works alongside vanilla-friendly villager mods, but two mods adding professions can compete for the same unemployed villager. If a villager takes the wrong job, isolate the workstation you want them to claim.
Does More Villagers hurt performance or cause lag?
The mod itself is lightweight, but large trading halls with many villagers and workstations can cause lag from pathfinding and tick updates. Keep your hall compact and avoid overcrowding to stay smooth.
