	Citizens supports multiple versions of Minecraft, but due to Spigot file size limits, limited development time, and security risks and bugs that come with older Minecraft versions, the actively supported versions change over time.		Citizens supports multiple versions of Minecraft, but due to Spigot file size limits, limited development time, and security risks and bugs that come with older Minecraft versions, the actively supported versions change over time.

	As a general rule of thumb, only the latest patch version of each of the three most recent Minecraft releases is fully supported. For example in Minecraft 1.20, the latest patch version is 1.20.6 and so the latest version of Citizens will only work with Minecraft Version 1.20.6, not 1.20 or 1.20.4.		As a general rule of thumb, only the latest patch version of each of the three most recent Minecraft major releases is fully supported. For example in Minecraft 1.20, the latest patch version is 1.20.6 and so the latest version of Citizens will only work with Minecraft Version 1.20.6, not 1.20 or 1.20.4.

	However, the exact versions may vary based on their usage data from bStats or Spigot file size limitations. This means that in some cases, a version may be skipped. For example, Citizens may support versions 1.19.4, 1.21.4, 1.22.1 and dropping support for 1.20.6 instead of 1.19.4, due to low usage or technical constraints.

	Some versions receive only limited support, meaning we will answer basic questions but cannot fix bugs or add feature requests on these specific versions, and the latest Citizens version will not run on them. On older versions that are not supported, we won't provide any assistance until you move to a supported version. If you are on 1.8 see [[Minecraft_1.8\|Minecraft 1.8]].

	Sometimes, a plugin you rely on may prevent you from updating your server. This can happen when the plugin is not maintained anymore, a Minecraft update happened with complex changes that require more time and work for the plugins developer, or the maintenance of the plugin is community driven.
