MultiPerms vs MyPermissions

MultiPerms is an open-source permission manager for Minecraft servers using BungeeCord, Spigot, or Velocity. Administrators can create groups, set permissions for individual players, and assign players to multiple groups with inherited permissions. Changes can take effect without restarting the server. The plugin also offers configurable permission-based chat colors and preconfigured basic permission sets. The project describes its configuration as almost 100% configurable, and says its config updater preserves custom changes. Listed requirements include Minecraft 1.16–1.21, Java 17 or higher, and a supported server. Installation requires the MultiPerms JAR and FacilisCommon in the server's plugins folder. The repository includes a multiperms-api module, and the project is licensed under GNU GPL version 3.0. GitHub Releases is the stated download route. Support questions can be directed to Dev7ex through Twitter or the linked Discord server. MultiPerms is free and runs in self-hosted Linux server environments.

MyPermissions is a free, open-source plugin for managing permissions, groups, prefixes, and suffixes on Minecraft servers. It provides a web interface and an in-game GUI, with support listed for Bukkit, Spigot, and Paper. Groups can have prefixes, suffixes, permissions, negations, ranks, and a default group, and can be configured in-game. Administrators can assign permissions and negations to individual players. The web interface lets them manage players and groups, create and configure groups, add or remove players, set the default group, and reload the plugin. The project is also available on Modrinth, and its project page points users to a wiki and Discord for help and feature requests. Hangar lists version 1.3.6 for Minecraft 1.21 through 1.21.8. The Bukkit project page lists the V1.3.6 release date as September 22, 2025, and the project creation date as June 4, 2017. It reports 66,114 total downloads. The listed plan costs nothing.
