Pigless Portals
by IAmSneak
Pigless Portals stops zombified piglins from spawning nether portals in the world, a behavior the vanilla game does not allow to be switched off.
What it does
Zombified piglins normally create nether portals in the overworld, and the mod blocks that spawning through configurable game rules. The default setting stops it, so a world that uses the mod does not gain these portals. The mod runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API. It is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. Single-player worlds and multiplayer servers are both supported. Versions 1.17 – 1.19.1 are covered, and the code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, which makes it open source.

What the author says
Stops zombified piglins from spawning because of nether portals, which in vanilla isnt possible to stop. By default it stops them from spawning because of portals completely, but can be configured with gamerules. /gamerule pigmenSpawnInPortals [default: true] - toggle pigmen spawning in portals
