# TrustButton \u2013 A Dynamic Path and Area Toggle System for Paper and Purpur (Minecraft 1.20+)<\/p>\n
TrustButton introduces a clean and powerful system that allows server administrators to create special buttons which toggle a custom path or area on and off. When a player interacts with a Trust Button, the plugin hides or restores selected blocks and broadcasts a global message. This creates dynamic gameplay moments that fit perfectly into adventure maps, quests, puzzles, parkour shortcuts, and event-based mechanics.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Overview<\/p>\n
A Trust Button is a custom button created by an admin. Each button can be linked to a set of blocks that will vanish or reappear when the button is clicked. The system is fully configurable, persistent across restarts, and designed to work smoothly on both Paper and Purpur servers running Java 17 or higher.<\/p>\n
The plugin also includes an admin GUI that provides full control over all registered Trust Buttons.<\/p>\n
