Common questions
What does Fadah do?
Auction-house marketplace with searching, filtering, categories and database-backed listings for modern Paper and Folia servers.
Is Fadah a plugin or a mod?
Fadah is listed here as a server plugin. Use the official download page to choose the correct build for your supported server platform and Minecraft version.
Do players need to install it?
Most server plugins run server-side and do not require players to install the same JAR. Features that rely on resource packs, Bedrock bridges or optional client integrations can still change what the player must download or accept.
How do I install it?
For a supported Bukkit/Paper release, download the correct official plugin JAR, place it in the server plugins/ directory and fully restart; follow project-specific instructions for other platforms. Before opening a public market, decide the auction duration, listing caps, fees and storage/database settings. Migrate no existing auction data without a verified backup.
How do I know the plugin loaded?
Check the startup console and logs/latest.log, then confirm the plugin loaded on its supported server platform. Next verify an actual feature rather than relying only on the plugin list: List a disposable item with a test player, search for it from another account, buy or expire it, and confirm item delivery and money movement after a restart.
What if it does not load?
If the plugin failed at startup, inspect the first relevant log error for a missing dependency, incompatible Java/server version or wrong artifact. If it loaded but its feature fails: If listings vanish or purchases fail, inspect the auction storage/database connection and transaction-related errors. Also check permissions and any economy bridge independently; a green plugin list entry does not confirm they work.
