Minecraft Commands




Due to the ever-changing versions, the full list of Minecraft server commands can be found in the Minecraft Wiki:

If you're using Bukkit, there are additional commands available:

Some plugins like Essentials have many more commands to make managing your server much easier:

Multiplayer-only Commands

These commands are usable by ops (operators) from the server console as well as through the chat window when prefixed by the command character (a forward slash). These commands are only available in multiplayer mode. With the exception of the list command, none of these commands can be executed by a command block, and none make use of target selectors. Many of these commands can be used on players who have never been to the server, or even on names which are not (or cannot be) registered as Minecraft accounts.

CommandDescription
ban <playername> [reason] Blacklists the name playername from the server so that they can no longer connect. Note: Bans supersede any whitelisting in place.
ban-ip ip-address | playername Blacklists an IP address so that all subsequent connections from it are rejected.
banlist [ips] Displays banned players. To display banned IP addresses, use the command "banlist ips"
deop <playername> Revokes a player's operator status.

pardon <playername> Removes playername from the blacklist, allowing them to connect again.
