The Pasted Portals addon removes the need to manually ignite portals that are placed programmatically. When a portal structure is pasted by WorldEdit or generated by a supported skyblock plugin, Dimensions detects the placement and ignites the portal automatically — as long as the structure contains the identifying sign.

​
Supported Integrations

WorldEdit

Auto-ignite portals when a schematic containing a portal structure is pasted.

BentoBox

Ignite portals that spawn as part of island generation in BentoBox-powered skyblock modes.

Iridium Skyblock

Automatically activates portals included in Iridium Skyblock island templates.

SuperiorSkyblock2

Supports portal ignition within SuperiorSkyblock2 island generation.

​
How It Works

After you enable the addon, Dimensions listens for blocks being placed or pasted by the supported plugins. When it detects that a portal frame has been completed, it checks the interior of the portal for a sign that identifies it. If the sign is present, the portal ignites automatically.

​
The Identification Sign

Every portal structure that you want to auto-ignite must contain a sign placed inside the portal opening (within the portal blocks). The sign must have:
  • Line 1: [DIMENSIONS]
  • Line 2: The name of the portal (matching the portal’s .yml filename, without the extension)
The sign text is case-sensitive. Make sure the portal name on line 2 exactly matches the filename of the corresponding portal config file in ./plugins/Dimensions/portals/.

​
Setup

1

Enable the addon for your portal

Open your portal’s .yml config file. The Pasted Portals addon activates for any portal that has it listed under Addon: — no extra sub-keys are required.
2

Place the identification sign inside the portal structure

In your schematic or island template, place a sign inside the portal frame (where the portal blocks appear). Write [DIMENSIONS] on line 1 and the portal name on line 2.
3

Paste the schematic or generate the island

Use WorldEdit to paste the schematic, or let the skyblock plugin generate the island. Dimensions detects the placement and ignites the portal automatically.
This addon is ideal for skyblock servers where every player island should spawn with a pre-configured portal. Create your island template once (with the sign inside the portal), and every new island generation will auto-ignite the portal without any admin intervention.
WorldEdit must be installed on the same server as Dimensions for the WorldEdit integration to function. For skyblock plugins, install the respective plugin alongside Dimensions.
