The Endercloud Game Panel at [panel.endercloud.in](https://panel.endercloud.in) is where you control your Minecraft, Hytale, bot and database servers. It is based on Pterodactyl, with extra Endercloud tools such as the Versions, Plugins, Mods and Modpacks tabs. This page shows what each part does and links to the full guide for it.

You also see how many people are online in our Discord, with a **Join our Discord** button. - **Your servers**: one card for every server you own or were added to as a sub-user. Each card shows the name, status, address (IP:port), CPU, RAM and disk use, and a **Manage server** button. - **Create folder** and bulk actions: tick several servers to **Start**, **Restart**, **Stop**, **Move folder**, **Send command** or **Create backup** for all of them at once. See [Organise servers with folders and bulk actions](/docs/organise-servers-with-folders-and-bulk-actions). - **Search**: press **Ctrl + K** to search your servers or jump to a page. Your own login settings (email, password, two-factor authentication, theme, SSH keys and API keys) are on your account page at [panel.endercloud.in/account](https://panel.endercloud.in/account). See [Game Panel account settings](/docs/game-panel-account-settings). ## Inside a server Click **Manage server** to open a server. The top of the page shows its name, whether it is **Online** or **Offline**, the address players use (for example `agni.ender.co.in:45808`), live usage and the power buttons **Start**, **Restart** and **Stop**. The sidebar has three groups. ## GENERAL - **Dashboard**: **Server Info** (Status, Uptime, Hostname, Server IP, Node ID, Server ID), **Subscription Information** (Status, when it Expires, Plan, Price and a **View Service** link to billing), **SFTP Details** with a **Launch SFTP** button, and live CPU, memory and network graphs. See [How to connect with SFTP](/docs/how-to-connect-to-your-server-with-sftp). - **Console**: live server output and a box to type commands. See [Using the server console](/docs/using-the-server-console). - **Settings**: SFTP Details, **Change Server Details**, **Debug Information**, **Reinstall Server** and **Change Egg**.

It includes actions by sub-users. ## MANAGEMENT - **Files**: **Create Directory**, **Upload** (files, folders or from a URL), **New file**, edit, move and unzip. See [Using the file manager](/docs/using-the-file-manager). - **Plugins** (Minecraft): **Browse Plugins** from Modrinth, CurseForge, Hangar and SpigotMC, and **Manage Plugins** you already have. See [How to install plugins](/docs/how-to-install-plugins-on-a-paper-or-purpur-server). - **Mods** (Minecraft): **Browse Mods** from Modrinth and CurseForge, and **Manage Mods**. See [How to install mods](/docs/how-to-install-mods). - **Modpacks** (Minecraft): find and install whole modpacks from Modrinth or CurseForge.

See [How to change Minecraft version or server software](/docs/how-to-change-minecraft-version-or-server-software). - **Properties** (Minecraft): a searchable editor for `server.properties`. See [server.properties explained](/docs/server-properties-explained). - **Players** (Minecraft): online players, operators, whitelist, banned players and banned IPs.

See [How to create and restore backups](/docs/how-to-create-and-restore-backups). - **Network**: your main port and extra ports (allocations). See [How to add extra ports](/docs/how-to-add-extra-ports). Bot and other non-Minecraft servers have a shorter list: **Files**, **Databases**, **Backups** and **Network**, because the Minecraft tools do not apply to them. ## CONFIGURATION - **Schedules**: automatic restarts, commands and backups. See [How to schedule automatic restarts and backups](/docs/how-to-schedule-automatic-restarts-and-backups). - **Users**: give friends or staff their own access, with an optional expiry date. See [How to add sub-users](/docs/how-to-add-sub-users). - **Startup**: the startup command, variables and the Docker image (Java or Node.js version). See [Startup settings and Docker image](/docs/startup-settings-and-docker-image). ## Frequently asked questions **Q: I can't see Plugins, Mods, Modpacks or Versions** These tabs only appear on Minecraft servers. If you are a sub-user, the owner may also not have given you permission for them. **Q: Where is the "Software" tab?** The tab that changes your server software and Minecraft version is called **Versions**. Bedrock software (Vanilla Bedrock, Nukkit, PocketmineMP) is chosen in **Settings → Change Egg**. **Q: Where do I renew or upgrade my server?** In the billing panel. Click the **Billing Area** tile, or **View Service** on the server's **Dashboard** to jump straight to that service. **Q: Does the panel work on a phone?** Yes. It runs in your browser. For long file edits or big uploads a computer is easier. You can also try **Display Mode → Compact** on your account page if you prefer a tighter layout.
