Valheim server guide

Become admin on a Valheim server

Open the server's Players page in HaruHost and give the player the Admin role. It applies right away, even while they are online, and stays after restarts. Admins can then use Valheim's admin commands, such as kick, ban and save, in the game's console.

Give the role

  1. Open the server's Players page. Everyone who has joined is listed by character name.
  2. Give the player the Admin role.
  3. HaruHost adds their account to Valheim's admin list on the running server; no restart needed.

Admins you already have

Admins already in Valheim's own admin list stay. HaruHost adds and removes only the players you change.

From Discord

The Discord bot gives and removes roles such as Admin, so you can make someone admin from your phone.

Windows and Linux

Roles work the same on both, through HaruHost's own server add-on. There is no mod to install.

Questions

Where is the Valheim admin list?

You don't need to find it. HaruHost changes Valheim's admin list for you from the Players page and keeps the entries you already had.

Does the player need to be online?

No. Anyone who has joined once is on the Players page, so you can give or remove the role while they are offline.
