Installing Dynmap
How to install Dynmap on your Minecraft server.
Dynmap is a Google Maps-like live map for your Minecraft server, viewable in a browser. It works out-of-the-box using its own built-in webserver, and can render your world using a range of renderers, some suited for performance, others for high detail.
Install the plugin
Download Dynmap
Go to the Dynmap download page and download the latest version that supports your server's Minecraft version.
Upload to your service
Using either the panel file manager or SFTP, upload the downloaded dynmap-*.jar file into your plugins folder.
Restart your server
Go back to the console tab and restart your server to load the plugin.
Expose Dynmap's webserver
By default, Dynmap's built-in webserver isn't reachable from outside your service. You'll need to give it its own allocation.
Create a new allocation
Stop your server, then navigate to the "Network" tab and create a new allocation. Note down the IP address and port shown, see our guide on managing allocations if you need more detail.
Edit Dynmap's configuration
Using SFTP or the file manager, open plugins/dynmap/configuration.txt and update the following:
webserver-port: 8123→webserver-port: <the port from the previous step>deftemplatesuffix: hires→deftemplatesuffix: lowres(orvlowres), for better performance on smaller servers
Start your server
Once fully started, your map will be live at http://<the IP from step 1>:<the port from step 1>.
