+# FAQ
+
+This faq contains answers to common questions about FancyPlugins.
+
+## General

+- Web-Viewer: [https://webui.advntr.dev/](https://webui.advntr.dev/)
+
+**Is ViaVersion / ViaBackwards supported?**
+
+- No ViaVersion and ViaBackwards are not supported

+- (generally ViaVersion / ViaBackwards should work, try to always use the latest version)
+
+**Is bedrock edition / geyser supported?**
+

+- The plugin may not work properly with Geyser as it is not officially supported
+- Additionally, display entities and other features don't even exist on Bedrock Edition
+
+**Is Spigot supported?**
+
+- No only Paper and Folia (a fork of Paper) is supported
+- Paper has generally a better performance and gives us developers a better experience developing plugins
+
+**I get a "UnsupportedClassVersionError" exception when starting the server**
+
+- All fancy plugins require Java 21 or newer
+- Make sure your server is running Java 21 or newer
+
+**The plugin is not loading**
+
+- Make sure to use the latest version of the plugin
+- Make sure to use the latest build of Paper / Folia
+- Make sure the Minecraft version is supported by the plugin
+
+**Are there converters to convert npcs / holograms from other popular plugins?**

+**How to modify each line in a hologram?**
+
+- Per-line settings (such as scale or background) are not supported in FancyHolograms due to a limitation with display entities
+- A separate hologram will need to be created for each line
+
+**How to add a blank line?**
+
+- To add a blank line in a hologram, use `<r>` on a new line.
+
+**How to make holograms clickable?**
+
+- Holograms currently aren't clickable themselves, but [here's](<https://fancyplugins.de/docs/fh-clickable-holograms.html>) a workaround
+
+**How to make the hologram not to rotate?**
+
+- To make a hologram not rotate, the billboarding must be set to FIXED
+- Example: `/holo edit <hologram> billboard FIXED`
+- Once complete, you must set the hologram's rotation with the `rotate` and `rotatepitch` commands
+
+**How to edit the holograms via the data file?**
+
+1. Run `/fancyholograms save`
+2. Back up the `holograms.yml` file in case something goes wrong
+3. Edit your `holograms.yml` file as desired
+4. Run `/fancyholograms reload` after saving the file
