Troubleshooting

Command missing or handled by another plugin: check CommandRegistration, restart after changes, and try a listed alias or a namespaced command. The command catalogue lists the exact syntax for this version.

No permission: check the correct category and .tool/.command context. For an action on another player, a self-tool permission is insufficient. Test without OP, root, category or base grants that would bypass a narrower restriction.

Player not found or offline: live tools require a player who is online. Known offline entries do not turn inventory, EnderChest or XP tools into offline editors. A ban target must have a known player record; unban also requires an existing profile ban.

Flag seems ineffective: use /fastflags list global and /fastflags list world, then inspect world overrides. Reset a world override to inherit global values. Other protection plugins and native world settings can still block an action when a Fast Flag allows it.

World operation unsupported: runtime world lifecycle changes are disabled on Folia. Use an appropriate server/world management workflow outside these tools; retrying the GUI action does not schedule the operation for restart.

Database error: read the startup log, check driver availability, MySQL credentials/connectivity and SQLite folder permissions. Verify whether YAML fallback was activated before editing data. Changing the storage type requires a restart; database mode does not synchronize live inventories.

Restart script not found: check settings.restart-script in spigot.yml and that the script exists at the resolved path. Reload/stop/restart commands require the literal confirm argument. Restart support also depends on the server's restart command.

Messages or effects do not appear: check MESSAGE_OPTION, PREFIX_OPTION, the correct MESSAGES key, permissions and the server version. Preserve placeholders and YAML quoting. Unsupported effects or attributes cannot be enabled by translating their label.
