Lanterns Belong on Walls
Lanterns Belong on Walls lets lanterns attach to the side of a block, so a lantern can hang from a wall instead of only from a ceiling.
What it does
Supported lanterns can be placed against the side of a block, and they attach to that face. Lanterns that extend the vanilla lantern class are covered automatically through a dynamic block entity, which handles most lanterns without extra work. Lanterns that override the placement state logic, or that do not extend the lantern class, are not covered and need their own wall hanging code. The mod requires Fabric API and runs on client and server, and it is released under the MIT License as open source, with files for 26.3.

What the author says
For supported lanterns, place the lantern on the side of the block, and the lantern will attach to that side. Lantern's that inherit from vanilla's lantern are automatically supported through a dynamic block entity. This does not cover every lantern, but it should cover most.
