The MOTD is the message players see under your server name in the multiplayer list. You can customize it to show your server’s status or welcome text.
Steps to change the MOTD:
- Log in to your Minecraft server panel
- Access the
server.properties
file in the file manager - Find the line starting with
motd=
- Change the text after
motd=
to your desired message - Save the file
- Restart your server for changes to take effect
Notes:
- The MOTD supports color codes using Minecraft’s formatting (e.g.,
§
codes) - Keep the message concise for best appearance
