SmartHomes

Named homes with a menu instead of a command list

SmartHomes is a free homes plugin for Paper and Spigot, from 1.17 to 26.x. Players name their homes, give each one an icon and manage them from a menu instead of a list of commands. Overwriting an existing home or deleting one always asks for confirmation first.

How it works in play

Setting homes: /sethome <name>. If the name is already taken, a confirmation window asks before moving it.
The menu: /homes shows every home with its icon, world and coordinates. Clicking one opens its options: teleport, set as default, rename, change the icon (hold an item and click), make it public or private, and delete.
Travelling: /home <name>, or just /home for your default home. A three-second warmup runs first, and moving or taking damage cancels it.
Public homes: once a home is public, other players reach it with /home visit <player> [home].
Going back: /back returns you to where you last teleported from.

How to use it

Install: drop the jar into /plugins and restart once. Homes are stored in SQLite with nothing to set up. English is the default; set language: es for Spanish.
Set the limits: every player gets 3 homes. Give ranks smarthomes.limit.5, smarthomes.limit.10 or any other number; the highest one applies.
Tune the rules in config.yml: warmup length, a five-minute cooldown by default, an optional Vault cost per teleport, and whether /back is cleared on death.
Apply changes with /sh reload.

Commands and permissions

Everyone: /sethome, /home, /homes, /delhome, /home visit and /back.
smarthomes.limit.<n> sets how many homes a player can have.
smarthomes.bypass.warmup, smarthomes.bypass.cooldown and smarthomes.bypass.cost skip each rule (operators by default).
Operators (smarthomes.admin): /sh reload.

Placeholders

With PlaceholderAPI installed: %smarthomes_count%, %smarthomes_limit% and %smarthomes_remaining%.

Requirements

Paper or Spigot from 1.17 to 26.x, forks like Purpur included, on the Java version your server already uses.
Optional: Vault (teleport cost) and PlaceholderAPI (placeholders).

Neither is required. Without Vault teleports are free. The plugin never refuses to start because an optional plugin is missing.

FAQ

Can players lose a home by mistake?
Overwriting a home by name and deleting one both need a confirmation click.

Can a home be used to escape a fight?
The warmup is cancelled if the player moves or takes damage.

Can players share a home?
Yes. Make it public from its options and others can visit it.

Can I translate the messages?
Yes. English and Spanish are included in lang/, in MiniMessage, and missing keys fall back to English.
