How to send players to another Minecraft server

Type /transfer play.example.com 25566 @a in chat as an operator to move everyone there. The other server needs accepts-transfers=true.

transfer

Sends players to another server address without them having to go back to the menu.

/transfer <hostname> [<port>] [<players>]

Examples

/transfer play.example.com

Sends yourself to another server.

/transfer play.example.com 25566 @a

Moves everyone to a server on port 25566.

Arguments

hostnameRequired: Address of the other server.
portOptional: Port, from 1 to 65535. Defaults to 25565.
playersOptional: Players to send. Defaults to yourself.

What it does

The receiving server must have accepts-transfers=true in its server.properties, or the player is refused. The port defaults to 25565, and without a player argument it transfers you.

Good to know

Needs operator permission level 3 (admin).

Run it on your server
