1. Download the latest release from the project page
\n2. Place the JAR file in your server’s `plugins` folder
\n3. Start or restart your server
\n4. The plugin will generate a default configuration and message files<\/p>\n
## Configuration<\/p>\n
The plugin uses a simple configuration file located at `plugins\/JoinMessage\/config.yml`:<\/p>\n
“`yaml
\n# Number of join message lines to display
\n# Changing this value will create or delete message files in the join-messages folder
\nmessage-lines: 3
\n“`<\/p>\n
## Message Files<\/p>\n
When the plugin starts for the first time, it creates a directory structure in your plugins folder:
\n“`
\nplugins\/
\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 JoinMessage\/
\n \u251c\u2500\u2500 config.yml
\n \u2514\u2500\u2500 join-messages\/
\n \u251c\u2500\u2500 line_1.txt
\n \u251c\u2500\u2500 line_2.txt
\n \u2514\u2500\u2500 line_3.txt
\n“`<\/p>\n
Each `line_*.txt` file contains a single line of text that will be shown to players when they join. You can edit these files to customize your join messages.<\/p>\n
