txAdmin is FiveM's own web panel: you manage your server through the browser, with a live console, player list, bans, scheduled restarts, resource management and a recipe installer for frameworks such as QBCore and ESX. At MC-Node you enable txAdmin with a switch in the panel; the txAdmin port is assigned automatically.

Enabling txAdmin

  1. Log in to the panel and click your server.
  2. Click Settings and scroll all the way down.
  3. You do not need to create or enter a port: the txAdmin port is assigned automatically from your server's ports. You will find it on this page at txAdmin Port (on some servers txAdmin Poort); it is read-only. Want a different port? Choose it on the FiveM tab, which only lists ports your server actually has.
  4. Change the value of TXADMIN from 0 to 1 and save.
  5. Restart the server.

txAdmin is now reachable at http://serverip:txadminport/, for example http://141.95.6.122:40176/. The IP is at the top of the panel; the port is the txAdmin port from step 3 (so not the game port 30120).

Logging in for the first time

At the first start, your server's console shows a four-digit PIN, and txAdmin asks for it. Enter the PIN, link your Cfx.re account (recommended; it lets you recover a forgotten password later) and walk through the setup: choose an existing server data folder or let txAdmin install a recipe. If you already run a server with scripts, choose Existing server data and point to the folder containing your server.cfg.

What you manage in txAdmin

  • Live console and the ability to start, stop and restart the server.
  • Players: who is online, with playtime, identifiers, notes, warnings, kicks and bans (also by identifier, not just by name).
  • Scheduled restarts with chat announcements, for example every six hours.
  • Whitelist based on Discord, licence or approval.
  • Resources: stop, start and reload without restarting the whole server.
  • Recipes: ready-made installations of QBCore, ESX and other frameworks; see installing QBCore through a txAdmin recipe.

Security

txAdmin is open to the internet as soon as it is enabled. Use a strong, unique password, link your Cfx.re account and give co-administrators their own account with only the rights they need (txAdmin has fine-grained permissions). Never share your main account. Login attempts from unknown IPs in the txAdmin logs are normal internet noise; with a strong password they are not a problem.

Common mistakes

  • The page does not load. Check that you use http:// (not https), that the port is the txAdmin port and not the game port, and that the server was restarted after enabling.
  • I do not see a PIN in the console. The PIN only appears at the first start without existing txAdmin data. Restart the server and look at the first lines.
  • txAdmin starts but the server does not. In txAdmin you start the server separately (green button); check the server data folder and the path to server.cfg.
  • Forgotten password. Log in through your linked Cfx.re account, or open a ticket; we can reset the txAdmin data.

Disabling txAdmin

In Settings, set TXADMIN back to 0 and restart. The server then starts directly from server.cfg again, without the web panel. Your scripts and settings stay in place.

Stuck? Open a ticket with a screenshot of the console at start-up.
