Panel Update - Mods & Modpacks Overhaul!

Hello Everyone!

 

It feels like a while since we have pushed a major panel update - however, for those of you that were with us from the previous announcement i am finally really happy to announce the much-promised Mods tab, as well as new Modpacks tab!


Mod One Click Installer

Similar to the "Plugins One-Click Installer" tab that was added at the end of 2022, we now have our own "Mods one click Installer tab". This allows you to easily search and filter all the mods from CurseForge & Modrinth and one-click install them to your server! We have two filters, one for the server version and one for your Mod loader too (Fabric or Forge) - which technically makes our one-click installer a ton faster than using CurseForge directly (And easier!)

As a side note to the above, please remember Client-Side mods should only be installed client-side - and if your mod requires any dependency mods these need to be installed also. You will also need to install these mods on your end also. We are working on some further guides, but, if you are new to modding or are unsure please Contact us via Discord (https://discord.gg/piglinhost) or create a Support Ticket and we will be happy to help! 


Modpacks Tab Overhaul

Our Modpacks tab has also been overhauled to fit in with the Plugins/Server Version/Mods tabs to be uniform and give it a cleaner, simplifier feel. It's worth noting both the Mods & Modpacks tab have a similar "Informations" button like the Plugins tab, so you can easily see within the panel what the Mod/Plugin/Modpack does without having to navigate elsewhere. 

What is even cooler is the Version Changer is now synchronized with the Modpack Installer tab too! No more having to switch between them :)


Bedrock Changes

We have not forgotten about our sole Bedrock users! We have a dedicated FAQ section now for Bedrock servers (https://billing.piglinhost.com/index.php?rp=/knowledgebase/7/Minecraft-Servers-Bedrock) We have also improved the Settings page for Bedrock servers which, with one click, allows you to change the more important settings for your servers (Such as cheats, difficulty, etc) 


US13 & LA2 is here!

We have now even more space! Thank you to everyone firstly for recommending and choosing us, it means a great deal to us. We have been battling constantly with running out of space with all of our locations, but, we are happy to say US13 & LA2, our latest nodes, are here which means we have a ton more server capacity now! 


Android App Changes

We recently published our second update to our Official PiglinHost android app. The main noticeable difference is now the app will instantly boot into your server's control panel (Highly requested) so you can quickly get to manage your server on the go. The new Mods & Modpack installer tab is fully compatible with the app also.

You can download the app completely free from the Google Play store here - https://piglinhost.com/app 


Backend Changes

We also performed some major backend changes that will hopefully help with performance and speed. There are also several other bug fixes and major security issues that were patched recently.


New Domains!

We now operate https://piglin.host which you can now use via the Subdomain tab. If you have not already set one up for your server what are you waiting for? Its completely free and makes it a ton easier to remember your servers address (Plus, you can customize it to whatever you like - providing someone else is not already using it of course ;) )

We also have the custom link for our Discord server now ( https://discord.gg/piglinhost) - for those that are not aware we do provide 1-1 Support via here so feel free to join if you have an account! Non-clients can also join the community too! 


Thank you

As always, I just wanted to end this announcement with a gigantic thank you to everyone who chooses us to host their Minecraft and game servers. We will always provide the same bespoke customer service to all of our clients and ensure you are all looked after here - not a regular generic Support service or paid extras. 

If you are enjoying our service and have a spare 60 seconds, we would love to hear what you think of our services too! It greatly helps us out :) https://www.trustpilot.com/evaluate/piglinhost.com
