BirthdayLanterns Guide

This page introduces BirthdayLanterns from a public server-docs point of view. It focuses on what the feature does in-game, how to get started when you have access, and which commands are useful.

BirthdayLanterns gives players collectible lanterns for birthdays, player anniversaries, and 1MoreBlock.com server milestones. The feature is meant to make long-term participation feel visible: players can claim keepsake lantern badges, keep one in an item frame or museum, and use finite wish…

Players use /birthday to open the GUI. From there they can review claimable lanterns, set their birthday, toggle visibility/effects/greetings, choose particle and sound presets, send their personalized celebration mail, and read guestbook notes.

Lantern items are marked with server item data. A normal right-click opens the BirthdayLanterns GUI. Sneak-right-click activates the lantern:

Available features include:

  • Collectible lantern keepsakes for birthdays, player anniversaries, and 1MoreBlock server milestones.
  • A /birthday GUI for claimable lanterns, status, presets, greetings, guestbook entries, and mail.
  • Strict birthday setup with visibility controls and configurable celebration effects.
  • Particle and sound presets for personal birthday celebrations.
  • Finite wish charges on marked lantern items, with clear remaining-use details.
  • Personalized celebration mail and guestbook messages with input limits and safety checks.
  • Server-marked item identity, claim history, and optional configured reward commands.
