# Setting up Permissions

Setting up permissions for your players is important, useful for creating ranks and giving certain permissions to those ranks. This article shows how to setup and use Luckperms.

First thing is to download the [LuckPerms](https://luckperms.net/download) from their official website. Choose Luckperms for Bukkit. Add the .jar file downloaded from the site into your plugins folder, and restart your server.

**Creating a Group(or Rank)**

Creating a group on LuckPerms is basically the same thing as adding a new rank or you could also call it a role. To create a group, type the following command:

```
/luckperms creategroup <name>
```

**Setting Permission to a Group**

You can set permissions to certain things for groups. Use this command:

```
/luckperms group <groupname> permission set <permission.to.set>
```

Example:

```
/luckperms group world-edit permission set worldedit.selection.*
```

**Setting Permission to a User**

This works the same as it does for groups, but this time, for a user:

```
/luckperms user <username> permission set <permission.to.set>
```
