Item Restrict Plugin 1.12.2 – Bukkit, Spigot, Paper

Item Restrict Plugin 1.12.2

Item Restrict is a Bukkit/Spigot plugin that lets you lock down dangerous items on your server. Restrict ownership, usage, placement, pickup, crafting, brewing, wearing armor, drops, smelting, and creative mode access. Perfect for modded servers where you need to control what players can do with certain blocks and items.

Key Features

• Item ID-based restrictions – Works with modded and vanilla items. Just add the item ID to your config and you’re done.
• Multiple restriction types – Pick what players can’t do: own, use, place, break, craft, brew, wear, drop, pick up, or access from creative menu.
• Custom restriction reasons – Tell players exactly why an item is restricted.
• World-specific control – Enable restrictions on all worlds or pick which ones. Great for modded servers where players create dimensions.
• World scanner – Automatically removes restricted items already placed in the world. Runs in a separate thread so your server stays smooth.
• Bypass permissions – Give specific players or groups exceptions to any restriction.
• Sound effects – Get audio feedback when someone tries to use a restricted item or runs commands.
• Particle effects – Visual effects show when players try to pick up restricted items.
• Fully customizable messages – Change all chat messages and the plugin prefix. Full color and formatting code support.
