No More JoinLeave Message
by MrLiam2614
No More JoinLeave Message removes the join and leave notices that the server prints to chat whenever a player connects or disconnects.
What it does
Players joining and leaving a server normally trigger a line in chat for everyone online. This Fabric mod stops those lines from appearing, so the chat log shows only what players actually say. Server owners who want the notices back can keep them for either event on its own, through a settings file.
The mod is configured through a notification.yml file in the config folder, using the YAML format. Its settings let the server choose whether join messages, leave messages, or both are shown. A typical setup keeps join messages enabled and disables leave messages, and the file includes an example of that layout. Changes take effect after a restart.
The mod is server-side only: only the server needs it, and players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric and works on 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the latest file 1.1 for 1.21.1, released on 2025-01-07. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the project has public source code, an issue tracker and a wiki.
Key features
Complete removal
Join and leave messages can be removed entirely, so no notice reaches the chat when a player connects or disconnects.
Selective messages
Each event can be set separately in the configuration, so one type of notice can stay while the other is hidden.
YAML settings file
Message behavior is controlled by notification.yml, which has an example layout included in the mod's documentation.
Restart to apply
Settings are read when the server starts, so changes need a restart to take effect.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners running Fabric who want to hide or trim the join and leave notices in chat. Players need nothing installed to benefit from the change.
How it compares
No Join Leave Messages is also a server-side Fabric mod, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and built for 1.21 – 1.21.11. SnapHelper is a client-side Fabric mod under the MIT License for 1.21.11, so it runs on players' clients rather than the server. No More JoinLeave Message covers 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 under the MIT License, with a server-only environment.
