Where to Find the FAQ, API, and System Status on mcsrvstat.us

Updated

The mcsrvstat.us homepage puts its main navigation in the top bar: FAQ, System status, and API sit alongside a Toggle theme control. Footer links lead to Donate, About, and System status. The page itself is the status checker — enter a server address in the Server address field and select Get server status to query it.

Main navigation (top of page)

Link Where it goes When you need it
FAQ Answers common questions about the checker When a lookup fails or you want to know what's supported
System status Reports whether the site itself is up When results look wrong or the page won't respond
API Documentation for programmatic queries When you want to check servers from a script, bot, or app
Toggle theme Switches between Light, Dark, and Auto For readability preference only

The Toggle theme control offers three modes: Light, Dark, and Auto.

Footer links

  • Donate — the site states it is ad-free and asks for donations to keep it running.
  • About — background on the service.
  • System status — same destination as the top-bar link.

Checking a server from the homepage

  1. Enter the server address in the Server address field.
  2. Select Get server status.
  3. If the server is Bedrock, use the Bedrock server? option — the page notes that Minecraft Java (1.7+), Minecraft Bedrock, or servers with enable-query=true are supported.

If you don't have an address handy, the page lists test servers, including:

  • Java: play.mineluxmc.com, mc.mineberry.org, mc.manacube.net, extremecraft.net, play.venitymc.com
  • Bedrock: performium.net, play.histeria.fr, geo.hivebedrock.network, play.nethergames.org, play.inpvp.net

When to use the API instead

Use the API page when you need repeated or automated checks — for example, a Discord bot that posts server uptime, or a website widget that refreshes status on a schedule. For one-off lookups, the homepage form is faster.
