Vanish Priority

Vanish priority decides which vanished players a staff member can see. It needs LuckPerms.

The rule

A player can see a vanished player when all of these are true:

  • priority is active (priority.enable: true and LuckPerms installed),
  • they have the vanish permission (advancedvanish.vanish by default),
  • their priority is equal to or higher than the vanished player's.

Without priority (turned off, or no LuckPerms), nobody sees vanished players, staff included.

Setting priorities

The priority is a LuckPerms meta value. The key is priority.meta-key (default advancedvanish-priority). Anyone without the meta has priority 0.

/lp group mod meta set advancedvanish-priority 1
/lp group admin meta set advancedvanish-priority 5
/lp user Notch meta set advancedvanish-priority 10

With those values, admins see vanished mods, mods see other vanished mods, and mods can't see vanished admins. Staff at the same priority always see each other.

Check your own with /vanish priority. It says not-using-vanish-priority when priority isn't active.

When changes apply

Who can see whom is worked out when a player vanishes and when someone joins. If you change a priority or permission while players are online, the vanished player can run /vanish twice to apply it straight away.
