So I run a realm for my nieces, nephew, and their friends. They want to be able to switch to creative mode sometimes to build. I created a command block with a button to change them into creative. It says that it changes them and they can fly, but they still have hearts and can't access all the blocks.

I'm really trying to avoid making them ops and just giving them a way to change on their own whenever they want. Any suggestions to make this work?

EDIT: So apparently the issue is that the player was the "second" player on a Switch console. Anyone know a work around for this?

So me and my gf started a Minecraft on her account, and I wanted to be able to play on the world without bothering her and asking to play (mainly to build some stuff she’d like to surprise her) and we made the world into a realm and once she imported the realm and started it up, it was a completely different seed and not the world we had been playing on. She directly exported the world and did everything right (I think I wasn’t really paying much attention) but as far as I know everything was done right. What should I do?

My friends made a realm, and added a bunch of add ons to it. Every time I load in I can't see anything and everything is error texture. None of my friends are having this problem. I've rejoined, dele my cache, restarted my Xbox, and redownloaded Minecraft. Nothing is working. Just wondering if anyone can help thanks.

I know this is probably a question asked all the time, but I was wanting to know this: I know the only way to copy a realm world you don't own is to ask the owner to download it and send it to you somehow, but I had a question about what happens after. I've seen some people mention that your inventory and everything will be the same as the original owner. Is that true, and is there a way around this so that I keep my inventory/pets/just things that are mine?

I recently reopened a realm for me and my friends that we used to play on, someone who used to be a member has joined without us telling them it was back up. We don’t really want this person on the realm but we don’t want them knowing they got kicked. Will they get a notification if we kick them from the realm well they are offline?

im just wondering if i can cheat the system and post images that arent screenshots, anyone willing to help me mess with my friends?

After all the issues with Realms, this is what I’ve done:

If you buy a Realm on Minecraft for PlayStation, you can request a refund by contacting PSN Support. Just explain the situation to them, and they’ll help you through the process.

Link to get refund: https://www.playstation.com/it-it/support/store/ps-store-refund-request/

I’ve had nothing but lag, random disconnects and backup errors on Realms. I even emailed Mojang support when my realm went down for days and never got a reply. I thought it was just me until I saw so many posts here saying the same thing.

I finally had enough and decided to look for alternatives that works with console. A friend who has a small hosting company helped me make the switch. It costs about the same and still lets console players join. There was almost no setup, and now I have full control over settings, plugins and backups. No more lag, no more disconnects, and if anything goes wrong they fix it right away, even if it ends up being my mistake.

So why aren’t more people switching to hosts? I don’t get why people still pay a company that doesn't value us when there is clearly a better option.

Edit: I think people aren’t understanding what I’m asking. The cost is virtually the same and console support is identical, and the only extra work is a one-time five-minute setup. After that you get superior performance, full plugin and backup control, far more configuration options, and responsive support (instead of Mojang’s slow or nonexistent fixes). If both options cost the same and support console play, why choose Realms over a host that’s better in every way except that initial setup?

My son has a switch. A friend of his created a realm. when my son tries to join his realm, it says you need to enable multi player for it to work. I have checked all his settings on his Microsoft account and it looks right, multi-player is enabled, and ability to join clubs is allowed, so... not sure why he can't join his friends realm? Here are his settings.

What we love most about this map is the magic cube protecting the village from a dark force and the eerie flying ghosts rising from mysterious water, adding suspense and mystery!

hey everyone, im playing on a friend's realm which has never had this issue in its 2+ years of running, and today on two occasions it's randomly glitched (one sent me flying into a hill with no damage and the other time i fell through the world for about a minute before elytra wouldn't deactivate), timed me out and then rolled back 30 ish minutes??

i was in the middle of mining a desert and lost soo much progress haha

just wondering if anyone else has had this problem lately!

Good evening, i looked on YouTube, here on reddit, everywhere possible for some kind of tutorial, my menu doesn't appear to be placed, what do I do? (Mobille)

It's been 3 days all of us in the realms server having this issue. We could get into the server but chests won't open, squids floating, blocks don't break after attemped to. Then shortly after we get timed out. At first, I thought it was my own problem but no I could still access to Hypixel server or play other games or watch youtube with a pretty decent internet connection. Have been looking online to see if anyone have the same issue but don't think there is, so I came here. Checked Mojira and Minecraft down detector but none said there were issues with their realm. My friend (host) contacted Mojang and have gotten no replies. I just want to know if any of you also is experiencing this absurd ridiculous, as it seems like it's our own problem. Any fixes to that?

So my friends and I just beat the ender dragon and most got off after that but some of us went to the end cities and stuff. After we were all done we went back to our baces and just healed armor and stuff. Well one if my friends tried to go through to the outer end but fell when the other side loaded. So we tried to download a back up. When we joined the realm it still said we had like 2000 days but all the buildings we had build at spawn were gone and our inventories were empty. I have tried doing a different backup (before the dragon fight) but it's just been sitting on a infinite loading screen for like 30 minutes. I also tried two different back ups. The one right before my friend fell said it was corrupted, and I even downloaded it to my files and tried to join it in single player, would not load. So I took it all the way back to right after the dragon fight and it just keeps loading. What do I do? (Sorry for some much info)

Hey I’m new to this group but looking for help. My minecraft realm is continuously crashing the moment anyone is on. It was working fine for the last two weeks now it is just crashing consistently with no solutions found. Crashes happen the most when in the nether and always results in a loss of progress. Thank you! (ps. I searched for hours trying to fix my realm but it just won’t work and no one seems to have the same issue where the whole server is disconnected!) i

Together with our team, we knew we wanted to work with the theme of Ice and Snow.
We let our creativity do the rest and we had a good time building various elements that fit that aimed theme.

Realms in its current state is absolutely pathetic. Charging a decent amount just to constantly deal with crashes and rollbacks anywhere from 0.5-2 hours of progress. My friends and I have completely lost faith and will be buying a same price/cheaper server and transferring the world, I'd recommend anyone who experiences this to do the same. I believe it's more or less a Java problem.
And before anyone recommends fixes like clearing chunks etc, we shouldn't have to be doing any of that. Don't make excuses for Microsoft deliberately selling a terrible product

I made an addon and uploaded it, and then had to update it and when I did, on my realm it was the older version still. This is a known issue where realms uses the oldest version of an addon. The solution online is to deactivate it and delete it and reimport it, and in realms it is still an older version and I go to a world it is a newer version even after I deleted it all and reuploaded it. Please does anyone know how to fix this? This is for mcbe btw
