Ranks are applied through LuckPerms commands, while their visual tab/chat prefixes are kept synchronized with LuckTAB. Existing MHQ visual ranks are loaded from LuckTAB’s prefix list.

Badges & secondary tags

LuckTAB can show extra LuckPerms groups through %lucktab_badges% and %chatBadges%, even when another group owns the main prefix.

Target dimensionDetected automatically from Multiverse-Core when connected. Custom keys remain supported.

Instant actionsThese controls send commands immediately. They do not rewrite server configuration files and they do not require a server restart.

Clock

Config history & rollback

Every panel write keeps a browser snapshot. When persistent history is enabled, the previous file is also copied into /mhq-panel-data/history before the new version is written and verified.

Connect to Pelican to load persistent history.

No history loaded.

Across plugin text configs

Global config search

Manual search only. The panel skips logs, backups, databases and player data, and caps the scan to protect the server.

Enter at least 2 characters and click Search configs.

Common commands

Server quick actions

RestartThe existing Restart server button remains in the top-right so destructive power controls stay separate from routine commands.

Persistent panel trail

Audit log

Records panel actions to /mhq-panel-data/audit.json when enabled. The admin name is a convenience label, not cryptographic identity.

No audit entries loaded.

Pelican / Wings live stream

Live server console

Disconnected

State —CPU —Memory —Players —

Connect to Pelican to stream the current server console here.

>

Live modeThe panel requests Pelican’s server WebSocket, authenticates with the short-lived Wings token, requests recent logs, and then streams new console output in real time. If WebSocket access is blocked, it falls back to polling /logs/latest.log.

Pelican client API

Connect to MHQ SMP

Panel URLExample: https://panel.example.com. Same-origin hosting is recommended to avoid browser CORS restrictions. Server identifierThe short Pelican server identifier. MHQ SMP is prefilled. Client API keyUsed only by your browser to read/write this server through Pelican. It is stored in session storage unless you opt in to remembering it. Remember API key on this deviceStores the key in localStorage. Leave off on shared computers. Auto-connect on page loadReconnects automatically after refresh when connection details are available. With Remember API key off, this works only for the current browser tab/session.

Behavior

Apply settings

Auto-apply visual editorsAutomatically writes changes from LuckTAB, scoreboard and chat editors after a short delay. Auto-reload supported pluginsAfter a verified file write, reloads only plugins detected as loaded. Disabled/config-only plugins are never reloaded. Create browser revisionsSaves the previous file content locally before each website write, allowing one-click rollback from the visual editors. Persistent server history + auditStores config backups and panel action records inside /mhq-panel-data through Pelican. No PHP or database required. Admin display nameFriendly label used in the panel audit log. This is not a secure identity mechanism.

Security recommendation

Host this folder under your Pelican panel’s own HTTPS origin and keep the API key session-only. Do not publish a copy with a hard-coded key.
