Chat Signatures

Overview

Chat signatures are a security feature introduced in Minecraft 1.19 that verify the authenticity of player messages. Disabling them may be necessary for mineLogin to function correctly, especially when players need to type passwords in chat.

Why Disable?

• Plugin Compatibility — mineLogin configurations may conflict with chat signature enforcement
• Performance — reduces server load on larger networks
• Flexibility — allows better control over chat management and moderation systems

Configuration

Disable chat signatures on all platforms in your network.

Velocity

Edit velocity.toml:

force-key-authentication = false

BungeeCord

Edit config.yml:

enforce_secure_profile: false

Spigot / Paper

Edit server.properties:

enforce-secure-profile=false

Steps

1. Modify the appropriate configuration file for each platform
2. Save the changes
3. Restart the server or proxy
4. Test chat functionality

Tip: Apply this setting consistently across all servers in your network — both the proxy and all backend servers.
