Open the configuration file located at plugins/manticprotector/config.yml and scroll down to the users section.
You will see two example entries (KingpinJordan and TheDeejayV1). Replace these with your own user entries, including:
Username
UUID
Whether the user is allowed operator status
Any whitelisted groups the user is permitted to be in
Notes: You only need to define whitelisted groups if the groups you want to protect also appear in the blacklistedGroups section.
If a group is not listed in blacklistedGroups, the plugin will ignore it during group-related security checks.
Restart your server.
This refreshes the configuration and securely registers the new user entry. Once added, the user will be recognised and protected by the anti-grief system.
Notes: Avoid performing this step on a live server, as the security system may flag and ban players who are not yet listed.
If you do not want this option enabled, you can ignore this section entirely.
