How to Install and Configure SkinRestorer on Your Server

General·March 22, 2026·6 min read

The SkinRestorer plugin can be very useful if you are looking to use your server in non-premium mode. In this case, when configuring it as "online-mode:false", your server will not correctly display the skins of premium users. There is a plugin called SkinRestorer that allows skins to be displayed even with this mode enabled. To install it, just follow these steps:

1. Download the JAR file of the SkinRestorer plugin from its official download page.

2. Access the control panel of your Minecraft server.

3. Click on "Files" in the left menu.

4. Select the "plugins". [NOTE: If this folder does not appear, it is because your server is not using a version compatible with plugins. For that, you must install PaperSpigot from the "Versions" section before installing this plugin.]

5. Drag into the "plugins" folder the JAR file that you previously downloaded from Spigot.

6. Wait for the JAR file to fully upload to your server.

7. Once it has been uploaded, restart your Minecraft server for the plugin to activate.

The SkinRestorer plugin allows players on your server to load their own custom skins. After installing the plugin, you may want to configure it to fit your server's needs, although it should work without changing any configuration. To do this, you can access the SkinRestorer plugin configuration file in the "plugins" folder and make the necessary changes.
