# How to upload a custom world

[![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/96b07f66ef6ab800/standard_1batqiq.gif)](https://www.minecraft-rewards.com/)

**STEP 1:** Download the world you want and save it somewhere accessible.
**STEP 2:** Make sure the world is in a ZIP archive. This can be done by using a program such as [WinRar](https://www.win-rar.com/download.html?&L=0) or [7zip](https://www.7-zip.org/download.html). You will need to compress the folder or it will not work. If you do not want to compress the world folder you can upload it to your server using SFTP.

|| If you do not know how to use SFTP please read this guide [Panel | How to manage files using SFTP](https://help.skynode.pro/en/article/how-to-manage-files-using-sftp-1dn4a06/)
||| If you have uploaded the world already you can skip **Uploading the world**

# Uploading the world

**STEP 3:** In the panel, press upload. From there select the ZIP file of the world.
**STEP 4:** Once you have seen the bar has turned from blue to green to show it has been uploaded, refresh the page. From there, press unarchive and the file will be placed in your server directory.

Now that your world has been uploaded, there are 2 ways in which you can physically see the world. If you're using plugins you can install a plugin called Multiverse which will allow you to have more than one world.

# Importing the world using Multiverse

**STEP 1:** Type the command `/mv import {file_name} {world_type}` replacing `{file_name}` with the name of the file and `{world_type}` with **NORMAL** for overworld, **NETHER** for a nether dimension, and **END** for an end world.
**STEP 2:** Type the command `/mv tp {file_name}` and this will teleport you to that world.

# Importing the world without Multiverse

**STEP 1:** If you want to keep your old world, rename it to something that isn't the name of the world you uploaded or "world".
**STEP 2:** Rename the file you uploaded to "world".
**STEP 3:** Restart the server.
