Shaped (most recipes in the game; shape of the grid matters)<br \/>\n&#8211; Shapeless (the ingredients can be in any order)<br \/>\n&#8211; Stacked items shaped (require stacks of ingredients in each slot instead of just a single item)<br \/>\n&#8211; Stacked items shapeless<\/p>\n<p>Finally, click the barrier block to discard your changes, the green glass to save your changes, or the green concrete to save and activate your changes.<br \/>\nActivating your changes makes the craft available to players immediately, although the client doesn&#8217;t recognize the craft until you disconnect and reconnect.<\/p>\n<p>## Viewing recipes<\/p>\n<p>`\/recipes` shows all recipes available to the player, and clicking on a recipe will show the crafting grid for that recipe.<\/p>\n<p>`\/viewrecipe <namespace:name>` shows the crafting grid for a specific recipe.<\/p>\n<p>## Stacked items<\/p>\n<p>![Stacked items example](https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/greatericontop\/GreatCrafts\/main\/assets\/stacked-items-example.png)<\/p>\n<p>**Video tutorial:**<\/p>\n<p>![Stacked items demo](https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PpBor3UOzmA)<\/p>\n<p>Stacked items are a special type of recipe that require stacks of each ingredient instead of just 1 of each.<br \/>\nIn the example shown, it would take 160 diamond blocks to make 1 enchanted diamond.<br \/>\n(Players will get an error message if they try to craft it with fewer diamond blocks.)<\/p>\n<p>Creating them is the same process; just put stacks of items in the crafting grid.<br \/>\nMake sure to also click on the crafting table on the right to change the recipe type to stacked items.<\/p>\n<p>These can also be combined with exact choice the same way as before, so if you&#8217;re really mean you can require 160 enchanted diamonds to make an enchanted diamond block&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Note for shapeless stacked items:<br \/>\nMultiple stacks of the same item type are supported, and they must be matched exactly.<br \/>\nFor example, if a stack of 16 and a stack of 32 diamonds are required, players must use exactly 16 and 32 diamonds in the recipe.<br \/>\nOther ways, like 48 diamonds in 1 slot, or 16 diamonds in 3 slots, will not work.<\/p>\n<p>## Extra settings<\/p>\n<p>These are some extra settings that you can add to recipes.<br \/>\nYou can edit them with `\/editrecipe <recipe> <setting name> <new value>`, or by clicking the paper icon in the editor GUI.<\/p>\n<p>### Automatically unlocking recipes<\/p>\n<p>Recipes can be automatically unlocked for players under certain conditions.<br \/>\nThis can be configured under `automatically-unlock-recipes` in the config file.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `never` &#8211; Never automatically unlocks custom recipes<br \/>\n&#8211; `have-each` &#8211; Automatically unlocks custom recipes if the player has each of the required ingredients<br \/>\n&#8211; `have-one` &#8211; Automatically unlocks custom recipes if the player has at least one of the required ingredients<br \/>\n&#8211; `always` &#8211; Automatically unlocks all custom recipes immediately<\/p>\n<p>For more fine-grained control, you can also use `\/editrecipe <recipe> auto-unlock-setting <enter a setting>` to adjust it for each recipe specifically.<\/p>\n<p>### Permission requirements<\/p>\n<p>You can require a permission to make a specific recipe with `\/editrecipe <recipe> permission-requirement <enter a permission>`.<br \/>\nNote that this will prevent crafters from using the recipe as well.<\/p>\n<p>### Craft limits<\/p>\n<p>You can limit the number of times a recipe can be made with `\/editrecipe <recipe> craft-limit <number>`.<br \/>\nThis limit is per-player and only applies to stacked item recipes.<br \/>\n(If you have a non-stacked item recipe, just change it to stacked items with stack sizes of 1 for the same effect.)<\/p>\n<p>You can also customize whether craft limits reset on server restart (e.g. minigames) or are permanent via the `persistent-crafting-limits` option in `config.yml`.<\/p>\n<p>## Utility commands<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `\/greatcraftsutil setcustomname <name... (use &#038; for colors)>`<\/p>\n<p>Sets the custom name of the item in your hand to the specified name.<br \/>\nColors are supported (e.g., `&#038;agreen text`).<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `\/greatcraftsutil setloreline <line # (starts from 0)> [<lore line... (use &#038; for colors)>]`<\/p>\n<p>Modifies the lore of the item in your hand.<br \/>\nSpecify the line number (starting from 0) and the lore to set on that line, or leave blank to clear it.<br \/>\nYou can specify a line number that is longer than the current lore (or if there is no current lore) and empty lore lines will automatically be added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `\/greatcraftsutil deletelorelines <line # (starts from 0)> [<line #> <line #> &#8230;]`<\/p>\n<p>Deletes the specified line numbers.<br \/>\nYou can specify multiple line numbers to delete.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `\/greatcraftsutil enchant <enchantment (Minecraft ID)> <level (0 to remove)>`<\/p>\n<p>Adds an enchant to the item in your hand.<br \/>\nYou can use this command to add higher levels or incompatible enchants to items.<br \/>\nThe enchantment argument uses Minecraft IDs without the `minecraft:` prefix.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; `\/greatcraftsutil duplicaterecipe<source namespace:name><target namespace:name>`<\/p>\n<p>Duplicates a recipe.<br \/>\nThe source and target recipe arguments are both in the `namespace:name` format.<\/p>\n<p>## Support<\/p>\n<p>To get support, report bugs, or make feature requests, please go to the issues page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adds custom crafting recipes to your server<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":77809,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"greatcrafts","_minecraft_project_id":"xwCEPfWW","_minecraft_author":"greatericontop","_minecraft_license":"GPL-3.0-or-later","_minecraft_downloads":5771,"_minecraft_follows":23,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"greatcrafts.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":1421392,"_minecraft_version_count":19,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T03:00:11.757826Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-05-26T20:15:24.174333Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2025-12-03T20:47:31.644052Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/greatcrafts","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":77809,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-04T11:44:11+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"f64fe180ab610747143c7c3b2724234e","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[89,126,866,127,129,92],"mod_loader":[132,134],"minecraft_version":[54,55,56,57,58,59,36,60,93,94,101,102,62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82,83],"class_list":["post-77808","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-management","mod_category-minigame","mod_category-paper","mod_category-spigot","mod_category-utility","mod_loader-paper","mod_loader-spigot","minecraft_version-1-19","minecraft_version-1-19-1","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-19-3","minecraft_version-1-19-4","minecraft_version-1-20","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-20-2","minecraft_version-1-20-3","minecraft_version-1-20-4","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9","minecraft_version-26-1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
