# PluginControl<\/p>\n

## Description<\/p>\n

This plugin allows you to control which plugins have to be enabled for the server continues running.<\/p>\n

Inspired by this
\nand this comment and myself having the same
\nproblem.<\/p>\n

## Installation<\/p>\n

1. Download the PluginControl plugin.
\n2. Place the downloaded plugin file in the `plugins` folder of your server.
\n3. Restart the server to load the PluginControl plugin.
\n4. Add plugins to the list using the command `\/plugincontrol add `.
\n5. Use the command `\/plugincontrol action ` to set the action to be taken if any of the listed plugins are not enabled. See the [Actions](#Actions) section for available actions.
\n6. Enable the PluginControl plugin by running the command `\/plugincontrol enable`.
\n7. Reload the PluginControl plugin configuration and language files with the command `\/plugincontrol reload`.<\/p>\n

Please note that the `` and `` placeholders should be replaced with the specific action and
\nplugin names as needed.<\/p>\n

**Note: This plugin needs Java 17 to work.**<\/p>\n
