This article will show you how to download and install DeluxeMenus on your Minecraft server. DeluxeMenus is one of the best plugins for Minecraft in my opinion because it allows you to add in fun and custom GUIs that your players can use to interact with your server. Truthfully, DeluxeMenus is one of the best Minecraft plugins for server customization, and it will make your server so much more user friendly once you have menus for everything. Thus, without anymore delay, here is how to setup DeluxeMenus on your Minecraft server!
How To Download & Install DeluxeMenus on Your Minecraft Server
Step 1) Start Bukkit, Spigot, or Paper Server
The first step of installing any plugin on a server is making sure that you have a server that works with plugins setup for Minecraft. You have a few options for this. You can start a Bukkit, Spigot, or Paper server, and they will all work with plugins. In truth though, we would recommend a Paper server as it is the most efficient and lag-free option. You can find our tutorial on setting up a Paper server linked above. You cannot install plugins on a server unless it is one of these types of servers. Once you have your server setup, you can move on to installing DeluxeMenus!

Step 2) Download DeluxeMenus & PlaceholderAPI
Now, before we can install DeluxeMenus we need to download it. Luckily, this is super simple and the same no matter what plugin you are downloading. You can find the official download page for DeluxeMenus by clicking the green ‘Download DeluxeMenus' button towards the top of this page. Once you do that, it will take you to DeluxeMenus's download page. Here, you will see a blue download button towards the right side of the page across from the title of the plugin. Click this, and DeluxeMenus will begin downloading. You will need to keep the file in the bottom left of Google Chrome or save it in the center of your screen on Mozilla Firefox. It is completely safe to save.
You need to repeat the above process for the PlaceholderAPI as well because the PlaceholderAPI is required in order to install DeluxeMenus. You can get to the PlaceholderAPI download page by clicking here. Once you are there, repeat the download process outlined above. You will still need to keep/save the file as well.
Step 3) Install DeluxeMenus & PlaceholderAPI & Restart Your Server
You have DeluxeMenus and the PlaceholderAPI downloaded, and we need to get them installed. This is actually extremely easy on Minecraft servers. Just take the plugins that you downloaded and drag-and-drop them into your ‘plugins' folder within your server. If you don't have a plugins folder, see step 1 to make sure you get the correct type of server setup.
Once you have added your plugin to the plugins folder, just restart your server to finish the installation process. It is that simple and that easy to install DeluxeMenus and PlaceholderAPI on your Minecraft server!
Step 4) Find DeluxeMenus's Config Files
One thing I did want to mention before finishing this tutorial off is where you can find your plugin's configuration files. These are super simple to find. Just look in your ‘plugins' folder within your server. Here you will see a folder with the name of the plugin you have installed. Open that up, and you will find all of DeluxeMenus's config files. Feel free to edit and change them all you want. We personally recommend using the Atom text editor for the best results!
Step 5) Enjoy DeluxeMenus
