Downloading a file from a website

The server can stay open while changing files, it is dynamic!

  1. Open the path.txt file, located in the PluginDispenser folder.
  2. Inside the file, type the URL of the parent folder of the files you want to access. Save the file and close it.
  3. Type the command: /install getpath
  4. The URL you typed should get prompted.
  5. Type the command: /install download <file>, where <file> is the file to download.
  6. The download should start. If you get an error, try double-checking if the file exists. If the problem persists, post the error in the comments.
  7. Reload the server (with /reload) to apply the effects.

Note: You can also use /install setpath <path> to change the active path, but be sure path.txt is closed.

Downloading a file from a FTP server

  1. Open the ftp.txt file, located in the PluginDispenser folder.
  2. Inside the file, type the credentials for your server using the following format: ip:port:username:password Note: You can also add the path to the file in the port part. For example, to get the plugins folder of the server, it would be ip:port/plugins:username:password. Save the file and close it.
