How to Install a Custom Modpack onto Your Server

This article shows step-by-step on how to install a custom modpack onto your Minecraft server.

Last updated on  Feb 24, 2026

Modpacks are a bundle of mods made to enhance your gameplay experience. In this guide, we will be showing you how to install a custom modpack onto your server.

⚠️
IMPORTANT: If your custom modpack has any client-side mods, remove them before uploading as client-side mods are not meant to be running on the server.

How To Install a Custom Modpack

  1. Open the run menu with Windows + R and type %appdata%\.minecraft, and press enter.

2. Make sure you take the folders that are related to your modpack.

  1. Make sure the server is stopped when moving the files.
  2. Go to your WiseHosting’s game panel, and move the modpack files to your server. This can be done via SFTP.
  1. When the files have been transferred, make sure to create a new world (or upload the same one you used locally).
  1. Done! You can now start your server and enjoy the custom modpack with friends!
