When enabled, this setting restricts server access so that only players specifically added to your allowed list can join, regardless of whether they have the password. This guide will show you how to toggle this restriction on the GGServers panel.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Stop Your HumanitZ Server<\/h3>\n<p>Toggling access restrictions requires the server to re-initialize its security protocols. Access your <a href=\"https:\/\/panel.ggservers.com\/\">GGServers Control Panel<\/a>, select your HumanitZ instance, and click the <strong>Stop<\/strong> button. Wait for the status to display as &#8220;Offline&#8221; before proceeding.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-32.png\" alt=\"Stop the HumanitZ server\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The server must be offline to update access restrictions.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Access Server Settings<\/h3>\n<p>Once the server is fully stopped, navigate to the sidebar on the left side of the panel. Click on the <strong>Server Settings<\/strong> button to open the configuration dashboard for your HumanitZ server.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-26.png\" alt=\"Navigating to Server Settings\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Click Server Settings to access the configuration tabs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Open the General Settings Tab<\/h3>\n<p>In the Server Settings menu, click on the <strong>General Settings<\/strong> tab.

Use the dropdown or toggle to set this to <strong>Yes<\/strong>. This instructs the server to check the &#8220;AllowedPlayers&#8221; list before permitting any user to connect. The GGServers panel saves your changes automatically.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"401\" height=\"183\" src=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6.png\" alt=\"Toggling Only Allowed Players in HumanitZ\" class=\"wp-image-18928\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6.png 401w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6-300x137.png 300w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6-50x23.png 50w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6-60x27.png 60w, https:\/\/ggservers.com\/knowledgebase\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-6-100x46.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Set this to &#8220;Yes&#8221; to restrict your server to whitelisted players only.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Start Your Server<\/h3>\n<p>Go back to the main dashboard and click <strong>Start<\/strong>.
