NamelessMC is an amazing forum that integrates into your Minecraft server and provides a web portal. It is a free to use system that is completely open-source, so you always know what is happening. You can use/buy some addons like Wiki, the Store Module and the Rules Module to make the site even better. This guide will walk you through the installation of the CMS!
Downloading the files
NamelessMC is still actively updating their software, so sending a static link wouldn’t be the best. Instead, I will give you the link to the “Latest” tag in their GitHub. Ensure you download the nameless-deps-dist.zip file! You will also want to download the companion Spigot plugin here!
Upload the files to your web host panel!
Please speak with a member of Oddblox support to get your free web hosting plan added to your account.
- Upload the ZIP file to the root folder of the domain or subdomain you want this site to exist on.
- Unzip the file, and ensure you can access the install.php file from the internet.

- Once the installation is complete, ensure install.php is deleted!
Upload the plugin to your server
NamelessMC’s companion Spigot plugin will need to be installed so it can communicate with the web forum. It is a super simple install process! Check below.
