How do I install different Minecraft Editions?

Last updated: January 24, 2026

In this tutorial, you will learn how to install a different Minecraft edition on your Minecraft server. The edition is the type of server software your server runs — for example, Vanilla, Paper, Forge, or Fabric — and it controls which features, plugins, and mods your server can use.

Switching Editions

Log in to the Game Panel at https://panel.nolimithost.cc/, select your Minecraft server, and go to Configuration > Advanced.
Choose your desired Minecraft Edition from the list.
Select your preferred Minecraft version.
If you need to fully reinstall your server, click Format before switching editions. Formatting completely wipes your server's files and reinstalls everything fresh, so download any worlds or files you want to keep first.
Stop the server before applying the change, then apply the changes and restart your server so the new edition is loaded.

Available editions include Vanilla, Spigot, Paper, Purpur, Forge, Fabric, and more.
