What it is good at
- Staff vanish and join/quit suppression
- Hooks into common server systems
- Administrative visibility controls
What types of servers should consider it?
- Public servers with active moderation teams
- Networks where staff need reliable invisibility while investigating players
Pricing and distribution
This is a paid plugin. Buy/download it only from the official project or marketplace links to avoid outdated or redistributed JARs.
What to check before using it
- Test integrations with tab lists, scoreboards, maps and proxy player counts if complete staff invisibility matters.
Also check the plugin's current dependency list, migration notes and supported server versions on the official page before changing a production server.
Operational caution: Vanish is not a security boundary: staff may still appear through third-party integrations or external logs. Test each connected public-facing interface.
Common questions
What does PremiumVanish do?
Staff vanish plugin for hiding moderators from normal players and common server queries.
Is PremiumVanish a plugin or a mod?
PremiumVanish is listed here because it is used as a server plugin in its supported plugin environment. Some projects also publish builds for other platforms; use the official download page to choose the correct platform build.
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?
Install a licensed build for the actual server/proxy topology and configure which staff groups may vanish or view vanished users. Review integrations with tab lists, tab completion, join messages and permissions.
How do I know the plugin loaded?
Have one authorized moderator toggle vanish and use a second ordinary player account to test visibility, tab lists, player counts and relog behavior. Repeat across servers if using a network.
What if it does not load?
If vanished staff still appear, isolate whether the visibility leak comes from a scoreboard/tab-list plugin, proxy-wide player list, spectator mode or another staff plugin. Check permissions in the layer where vanish operates.
