FAQ
Why does my MOTD show weird characters?
server.properties needs the section sign escaped as \u00A7. Use the first output box and it will display correctly.
Can I use hex colours?
Yes. Type &#RRGGBB (for example &#FFB547). Hex works on 1.16+ servers through plugins that support it.
How long can an MOTD be?
Two lines, roughly 45 visible characters each before the client cuts them off.
