Minecraft 1.21.5 changed how text is written inside commands, so pick the version your server runs.
Your command
Places the sign where you stand. Change ~ ~ ~ to coordinates to put it somewhere else.
How to use the Sign Generator
- Type the lines of your sign. Use & codes for colour. The tool warns you when a line is too long to fit.
- Pick the wood type, a dye colour for any text without its own colour, and whether the text glows.
- Choose which way the front of the sign faces.
- Copy the command and run it where you want the sign. It is placed where you stand.
Common questions
Which Minecraft versions does the command work on?
Minecraft 1.20 and newer. Signs were changed in 1.20 to store text for the front and back separately, so the command is not the same on older versions.
How do I put the sign somewhere else?
The command uses ~ ~ ~, which means your current position. Replace those with the x, y and z coordinates you want.
What is the difference between dye and colour codes?
Dye sets the colour of the whole sign’s text, as it does when you use a dye on a sign in game. A colour code changes only the text that comes after it, so you can mix colours on one sign.
What does glowing text do?
It is the effect of using a glow ink sac on a sign. The text gets an outline and stays bright in the dark.
