1. Plugin Deployment

  1. Prerequisite: Ensure CounterStrikeSharp (CSS) is already installed and functional.
  2. Download the latest CS2-SimpleAdmin.zip from the GitHub Releases page.
  3. Upload the CS2-SimpleAdmin folder into your server’s /game/csgo/addons/counterstrikesharp/plugins/ directory.
  4. Restart the server once to generate the initial configuration files.

2. Database Integration

SimpleAdmin requires a MySQL database to store bans and logs.
  1. Navigate to the Databases tab in your FREAKHOSTING panel.
  2. Create a new database and copy the credentials.
  3. Open /game/csgo/addons/counterstrikesharp/configs/plugins/CS2-SimpleAdmin/CS2-SimpleAdmin.json.
  4. Update the database fields as follows:
{
  "DatabaseHost": "127.0.0.1",
  "DatabasePort": 3306,
  "DatabaseUser": "freak_admin",
  "DatabasePassword": "YourSecretPassword",
  "DatabaseName": "freak_cs2_bans"
}

3. Verification

  1. Restart the CS2 server.
  2. Access the console and type css_plugins list.
  3. Verify that CS2-SimpleAdmin is listed in green status. You can now use commands like !ban or !kick directly from the in-game chat.

Permission Flags

By default, SimpleAdmin respects the permissions defined in the CSS admins.json. Ensure your SteamID64 is added to that file with the @css/root or @css/admin flag to access SimpleAdmin features.
