FYI plugins with ‘Sponge’ in the name aren’t allowed on Ore unless this is a port of something or it deals with sponge blocks.
Yeah I am aware, tho it techinically it a port, as the plugin originally started as a Bungee plugin.
But eitherway, if that still is a problem, I’ll just rename it ^^

Hello, is there any way to whitelist some people from the maintenance kickstart compared? For example: If I put an admin grade to a person, it will not kick as soon as maintenance is enabled. If that’s not possible, it would be nice, instead of switching and whitelist each player in the config file! Thank !
Either you whitelist them before enabling (/maintenance add <player>) or you can use a dev build and set kick-online-players to false to not kick online players but only prevent new ones from joining
You can use /maintenance starttimer <minutes> and /maintenance endtimer <minutes> to schedule its start/end
