I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

WAUF(where are u from?)

Retrieve player location: Use the "/wauf " command to obtain the geographic location of a specified player. Operator permissions: Only server operators or players with the appropriate permission node can access the location information. Offline access: Wauf stores player IP addresses in a YAML file, allowing for location retrieval even when the player is offline.

Instructions:

Install the Wauf plugin on your Minecraft server. Grant appropriate permissions to players who should have access to the "/wauf" command. Players can then use "/wauf " to query the location of another player. Wauf will display the approximate geographic location of the specified player, including country, state, city, latitude, and longitude.

permission node: wauf.use

Note: Wauf does not require the use of MaxMind API. Its usage is free and does not require any payments.
