UUID conversion

Introduction

This was added in version 2.10. UUID conversion allows you to switch between different methods of UUID storage on your server.

Offline - Mode

Will use the same UUID as an offline-mode server. The UUID will be based on the player name (case-sensitive).

Lower - Mode

Offline mode but case-insensitive, as it gets the UUID from the lowercase username.

Online - Mode

Use online-mode UUID provided by Mojang.

This mode will not work properly if you are using a pre-UUID version of Bukkit, or your server is set to offline mode. Please check your server.properties to be secure.

If you use a proxy server (e.g. BungeeCord or Waterfall) follow this documentation to forward the player-UUID. Then the PlotSquared Online-UUID-Mode works also fine.

Usage

A command is required to be executed in order to convert between methods of UUID storage.

You are strongly advised to backup your database before a conversion. Plots may be lost if something goes wrong!

/plot uuidconvert <mode>
