Stacked Actionbar Messages
Stacked Actionbar Messages keeps several actionbar messages readable when a server sends them in quick succession, where vanilla shows only the newest one.
What it does
In vanilla Minecraft, a new actionbar message replaces the previous one, so a player can miss context when a server sends several in a short span. This mod stacks those messages instead, so each one stays on screen long enough to be read. It is a client-side only mod: servers run without it, and players alone install it to see the stacked display.
The mod requires Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) on Fabric. Mod Menu is optional and is suggested for opening its settings from the in-game mod list. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the code is open source under the MIT License, so bug reports can go to the GitHub issue tracker. The mod is published for Fabric only, with 1.1.1 as the latest file for 26.3, released 2026-09-20, and files cover 26.2 – 26.3.
Key features
Stacked messages
Several actionbar messages are kept on screen together, so one arriving does not erase the message before it.
Readable context
Messages sent in quick succession stay visible long enough to read, which helps on servers that send several at once.
Configurable display
Settings are handled through YetAnotherConfigLib, which lets the player adjust how the stacked messages appear.
Optional settings menu
With Mod Menu installed, the settings screen can be opened from the in-game mod list.
