Permissions

Both local and custom channels allow permission settings. By default, channels do not require any permissions to send or receive messages. If you add a permission check, either for the sender or receiver, the operator level is always required. A permission manager like LuckPerms is necessary to use permission nodes.

  • permission_sender - Defines the sender's permission requirements.
    permission: Permission node to send messages (default: null)
    operator_level: Operator level to send messages (default: 0)
  • permission_receiver - Defines the receiver's permission requirements.
    permission: Permission node to receive messages (default: null)
    operator_level: Operator level to receive messages (default: 0)

Permission Example:

{
  "permission_sender": {
    "permission": "easychannels.send",
    "operator_level": 4
  },
  "permission_receiver": {
    "permission": "easychannels.receive",
    "operator_level": 0
  }
}

Frequently Asked Questions

Easy Channels server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Easy Channels compatible with fabric?

Easy Channels officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Easy Channels – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Easy Channels consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
