    Hii, can you please answer this question. How would I have the name go to a specific port like if it was originally something like 192.157.1.43:2358 as an example?

    • @Websplaining
      @Websplaining  Před 3 lety

      To change your servers port you need to open the server.properties file. Once done, edit the line which says "server-port=25565". In your comment, you gave 2358 as an example. Simply change it to "server-port=2358" and don't forget to save.

    I use Namecheap and I recently realized that some people don't see the server on the server list if they use a custom domain.
    (this only applies to some people living in some individual countries) Do you know can I fix that?

    Hi there, I'm using cloudflare and I put in my A record and I still can't connect to the custom IP. I'm hosting manually, I have the port setup but what should I put in to the server-ip box in server.properties?

    • @int00ract54
      @int00ract54 Před 2 lety +1

      you need to set the nameservers pointing to cloudflare, also you need to wait 48 - 72 hours for the nameserver change to take effect. if you have the default port (25565) then its good, but otherwise you need to also create a srv record or connect using domain.com:port
      hope this helped
