❓ How to Find Your Actual World Name ❓

For Java servers, the world folder can be found in the root directory of the server, the one that contains all the other files or folders.

NOTE: The default world folder name is world.

To find your actual world name please do the following:

1. Log in to your Pterodactyl panel here.

---

2. Click on Worlds and note the content of the box titled World because that is your world folder name.

To upload your world please do the following:

1. Prepare the new world folder you want to upload and please be sure it is not named the same as your old/ actual world folder name. You will have to note the name of the new world folder.

2. Use Filezilla to upload the new world folder to your server, meaning inside the root directory of the server.

3. On the example below, we uploaded a world named “New World Folder”, and the world appears on your Control Panel. Now that the server is stopped, you need to select it so the server can load it properly. Therefore, find the Worlds section in your main Pterodactyl page, then select the new world folder you just added in the list, then click on Make Default.

4. Restart your server.

Now you just uploaded your custom world to your server.
