Troubleshooting

Common problems and how to solve them.

Connection Test Fails

Check that:

• Your Minecraft server is running
• TIKTORY_Core loaded without errors
• Host, port, and API key are correct
• Port 8808 is open and not blocked by firewall/router

The TIKTORY Core plugin might automatically choose a different port if 8808 is already taken. See the config.yml file for the currently used port.

Minigame Modules Not Showing

Check that:

• The .jar files are inside:
  plugins/TIKTORY_Core/modules/
• You restarted the server
• No errors appear in console or logs

TikTok Actions Not Triggering

Verify that:

• Your TikTok account is connected in TIKTORY
• You are currently live
• The correct integration is enabled
• The rule conditions match your events (gift value, type, etc.)
