VillagerGuardian
VillagerGuardian is a lightweight admin plugin that gives server owners full control over villager trading through a simple in game GUI. No need to memorize commands or edit config files.
It works great for economy servers, trading hubs, or content creators who want villagers to always look “fresh” on camera.
Features
- Villager Immunity — toggle whether villagers can take damage, protecting them from griefing or accidental hits
- Trade Lock — quickly enable or disable trading with villagers, useful during setup or maintenance
- Instant Trade Reset — reset all villager trade uses with one click, so players immediately get fresh offers
- Auto Refresh — automatically refresh villager trades at a set interval (from a few seconds up to 30 minutes), so trades never run out — especially useful for recording sessions
- Breeding Lock — prevent villagers from breeding when you want to control population
- Persistent Settings — all settings are saved automatically and persist after server restarts
How to Use
Run /villager (requires the villager.admin permission) to open the control panel and manage everything through the GUI.
Permissions
villager.admin— allows access to the/villagercommand and control panel (default: Operator)
