About

LiteBans is a cross-server punishment management system with many advanced customizable features to enhance your moderation experience.

All punishments made through LiteBans will take effect globally across all servers linked to the same database.
Although LiteBans is designed to effectively synchronize between hundreds of servers, it can still work alone on a single server without a MySQL database.

LiteBans can run natively under Spigot, Folia, Fabric, BungeeCord, and Velocity, offering the same features on all platforms.


Features

• Designed from the ground up with UUID support in mind. All punishments are UUID-based.
• Fully customizable kick screen for banned players, multiple lines and colours can be used, as well as ban information variables – duration until ban expires, reason, staff member who placed the ban, server which ban was placed on, time since ban was placed, original ban date & duration, and many more.
• Template system allows you to make fully customizable punishment ladders. Each time you punish someone using a template, the punishments will scale up with repeat offences. Each ban template can be assigned with a custom kick screen message!
• Custom warning templates are supported, allowing you to define categories for warnings that each have their own set of triggered punishment commands which run after players are warned a specific number of times.
• Server scopes are supported, granting you the ability to place per-server punishments and global punishments.
• Discord Webhook support - to send customizable embed messages to your Discord server! Easy to configure.
• All messages are customizable in messages.yml. There are many useful variables available to place in any configurable message that involves a ban, mute, or warning. Hover-text and hex colours supported.
• You can view punishment history for players (/history) and punishments issued by staff members (/staffhistory).
• Several database types are supported, including MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and H2. H2 is used by default, meaning that MySQL is not needed to use LiteBans with a single-server setup.
• Linked account detection and banning - when a player with a banned account on the same IP joins, all players with the right permissions will be notified. These accounts can also be banned automatically.
• Multi-instance synchronization system allows global punishments and broadcasts to instantly take effect across all servers connected to the same database, even if the plugin is not installed under BungeeCord.
• Staff members can be "rolled back" – all punishments which they've issued can be removed at any time with a single command. Staff abuse has never been easier to deal with.
• Bans can be imported from vanilla (including Essentials), and 7 popular plugins, including MaxBans, BanManager, AdvancedBan, and BungeeAdminTools.
• Users who have been IP-banned or GeoIP-blocked can be permitted using the "/litebans allow" command, which excludes their account from the IP ban without removing the ban entirely.
• Offline & online users can be tab-completed. For offline users, the usernames are stored in a compressed cache specifically designed to minimize memory usage without keeping thousands of objects in RAM 24/7.
• Offline players can receive warnings; they will see all of their new warnings when they join. This works across servers.
• Players cannot overwrite punishments unless they have permission.
• Lightweight, multithreaded, and designed for performance. LiteBans uses a minimal amount of memory and does not block the main server thread with any database queries after startup.
