Plugin WelcomeNewPlayers

WelcomeNewPlayers, a friendly onboarding plugin

WelcomeNewPlayers is a lightweight Bukkit plugin designed to make the first moments on a Minecraft server clearer and more welcoming. It announces when a newcomer joins, displays configurable messages, and can also greet players returning after a period of inactivity.

Server owners can guide beginners toward an introduction area, provide starter items, show rules or helpful information, and teleport new players to a chosen location. Color codes and the %name placeholder personalize messages, while separate settings control each feature. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for servers seeking a simple, flexible welcome system, although its documented releases target older Bukkit versions.
