How to Add an Admin to your The Isle Server

The Isle Administrators have access to a range of commands that will help run your server, ranging from healing players and making server-wide announcements to kicking and banning troublesome players. 

Note: You will need to know the player's Steam64ID before making them an Administrator.

Adding an Administrator

Server Administrators can easily be added or removed using your server's control panel. To do this you will need to add the player's Steam64 ID to your server's isle.properties file.

  1. Navigate to your control panel and Stop your server.
  2. Navigate to Files > Config Files.
  3. Click The Isle Server Settings.
  4. Insert the Steam64ID of the user you would like to set as an Administrator inside of the Admin Steam IDs setting. You can specify multiple, separating them each with a comma.

     
  5. Click Save and Start your server.

Administrator Commands

Once a player has been added to the server's Administrator list they have access to a range of commands. The most commonly used can be found below and entered into the command console.
