Upgrading to 1.7.7

What you must do after installing the 1.7.7 jar. Jar updates do not overwrite live YAML.

Do this

1. Full server restart with the new jar (not /reload).
2. Confirm /sa version shows 1.7.7 and /sa modules list looks right.
3. If you customized gui.yml or messages.yml, merge any missing keys from Config Reference defaults (or regenerate GUI from /sa guiconfig tools after backup).
4. Optional: Discord punishment/report/ticket webhooks under config.yml → integrations.webhooks (new in 1.7.7).

What changed (owner-facing)

Change	What it means
Module gating / enforce	Ban, mute, IP ban, and jail still enforce when those modules are command-off
Custom commands	Safer save/restore; wraps pass -force / -s; top-level wraps like /give when registered
MOTD on Spigot	Ping fallback for list MOTD / player counts
Permission defaults	Many player nodes in plugin.yml default false; grant what you want players to have
Performance	Async moneylog, pay cache, trade debounce, tab caches

Soft new-install defaults are not forced onto existing configs. Full history: Changelog.

Coming from older 1.7.x

• 1.7.5+ admin hub pages / Support Hub: regenerate or merge gui.yml if you still see a flat button wall.
• 1.7.4+ GUI tertiary actions use F (f-action), not middle-click.
• 1.7.2+ disabled modules release top-level aliases; staff lookup prompts stay out of public chat.
