Every Server Has a Story

Every Minecraft server naturally builds its own history over time.

Factions form, conflicts happen, players come and go, and important moments often get lost in chat or forgotten entirely.

ServerPress helps you keep track of it all in one place.

Publish news as things happen, follow other reporters, and build a shared record of your server that players can actually look back on.

ServerPress

ServerPress adds an in-game news system to Minecraft, allowing players to write, publish, read, follow, comment, and react to server news directly from inside the game.

Instead of relying only on Discord messages, signs, or chat announcements, ServerPress gives your server a proper news platform where events can be documented as they happen. Wars, political drama, economy changes, community updates, scandals, discoveries, and player-made stories can all become part of the server’s history.

What It Adds

ServerPress introduces a News Article item that opens a polished news interface when used. From there, players can browse articles, read server-wide posts, follow reporters, and interact with published news.

Players can also create reporter accounts and publish their own articles, depending on the server’s configuration and moderation settings.

Main Features

• In-game news articles that everyone on the server can read

• Reporter accounts with login, password, and display name support

• Article creation system for writing and publishing server news

• Image support for adding visuals to articles

• Reporter following so players can keep up with specific writers

• Article reactions for community interaction

• Admin moderation tools to help control spam, abuse, or unwanted posts

• Configurable settings for permissions, moderation, limits, behavior, and more

• Clean GUI designed to feel like a real Minecraft news platform, not a plain text menu

Crafting

The News Article item is crafted using:
