Getting Started

Quick setup for SoapsQuest on Paper 26.2 or Spigot 26.2 (Java 21+; Folia not supported).


1. Install

  1. Install SoapsCommon on your server.
  2. Place SoapsQuest-1.0.5-Free.jar or SoapsQuest-1.0.5-Premium.jar in plugins/.
  3. Restart the server (not /reload for first install).
  4. Confirm the console shows SoapsQuest enabled and SoapsCommon loaded.

2. First reload

SoapsQuest creates default configs in plugins/SoapsQuest/ on first run.

/sq reload

If quests.yml has syntax errors, reload aborts and keeps the previous config. Fix the reported lines and reload again.


3. Give a test quest

/sq give YourName lumberjack

Open your inventory. You should see a quest paper with lore showing the objective.

Break oak logs to progress. Right-click the paper when complete to claim rewards.


4. Open the browser

/sq browse

Players with soapsquest.gui.browser can pick up quests from the browser GUI instead of staff /sq give.


5. Next steps

  • soapsquest.gui.browser
  • soapsquest.gui.myquests
  • soapsquest.list and soapsquest.list.click
  • soapsquest.progress
  • soapsquest.statistic

See Commands and Permissions for the full list.
