How to Open Your Minecraft Server in the Panel
Where to log in, how to find your server, and what each page in the server sidebar is for.
Updated 1 min read
Everything about your server is managed from the Beacon panel.
Log in
- Go to beaconhosting.org/auth/login.
- Sign in with your email and password, or with Google if that's how you signed up.
- If you've set up two-factor authentication, enter the code from your authenticator app.
Find your server
After you sign in, open Servers. Every server you own, or have been added to as a team member, is listed there. Click a server to open it.
The server sidebar
| Page | What you do there |
|---|---|
| Console | Start, restart, stop or kill the server; run commands; watch CPU, memory and network use |
| Files | Browse, upload, edit and delete files |
| Package Manager | Install server software (Paper, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Vanilla), plugins, mods and modpacks |
| Users | Give other people access, with the permissions you choose |
| Backups | Create, restore, download and lock backups |
| Network | Your server address, extra ports, and your own domain |
| Schedules | Run commands, restarts and backups automatically |
| Startup | Startup variables for the server |
| Settings | Server name and description, and your SFTP details |

Minecraft servers also get a Players page for the whitelist, operators and bans.
Service & billing takes you to the service page, where you can renew, change plan or cancel.
Tip
Your server address is on the Network page. Copy it from there to share it with players.
