Offline Whitelist - Username-Based
by pedruhb
Offline Whitelist - Username-Based lets server owners whitelist players by username, so offline-mode accounts can join without a UUID match.
What it does
Server admins can run whitelisting on a server that uses offline mode. The whitelist checks the username and ignores the UUID, which lets listed players join. The vanilla whitelist has to be turned off first, because this mod works in its place. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Files are published for Forge 1.18.2, with version 1.0 dated 2024-01-28.
Key features
Username-based whitelist
Whitelisting matches the player's username instead of the UUID, so players on offline-mode servers can be admitted.
Add and remove players
Admins add a username with a whitelistusernameadd command and remove one with whitelistusernameremove.
List whitelisted users
A whitelistusernamelist command shows which usernames are currently on the list.
