Valheim server guide

Ban, unban and kick players on a Valheim server

Open the server's Players page in HaruHost and press Kick or Ban next to the player. A ban disconnects them right away and stays after restarts; Unban lets them back in. It works the same on Windows and Linux, and from Discord.

On the Players page

  • Every player who has joined is listed by character name, with sessions, playtime and when they were last seen.
  • Kick, ban and unban while the server runs. A banned player is disconnected at once.
  • The ban is on the player's account, Steam or crossplay, so a new character doesn't get around it.

What the Players page shows for every game is on the Players page overview.

Bans you already have

Bans in Valheim's own ban list stay, and the Players page shows them. HaruHost adds and removes only the ones you change.

From Discord

Kick, ban and unban with the Discord bot, which also shows who is online.

Questions

Can a banned player come back with a new character?

No. The ban is on their account, not their character name.

Do I need a mod to ban players on Valheim?

No. HaruHost adds its own server add-on, so the Players page and bans work without hunting for mods.
