The plugin is not fully effective, several malicious clients hide their client branding when entering the server or impersonate vanilla clients. However, the plugin can detect several clients such as Forge, Fabric, LiteLoader, Lunar, Vanilla, and others.
It also detects Forge 1.7.10 - 1.12.2 mods.
If you want to use ClientCatcher in Fabric, you can try https://modrinth.com/mod/clientcatcher-fabric
Placeholders
ClientCatcher provides several placeholders for use in other MiniPlaceholders-compatible plugins
Discord WebHook Configuration
If you have a Discord server on which you want to show alerts of which clients your players are using, you can activate the webhooks module and configure it like this
- Copy the URL of the WebHook.
- Extract the ID and Token from the URL.
- Put those fields in the specific configuration options.
- Restart your proxy
