Creating Your Account

You can sign up for ServerPlane using email and password, or through GitHub or Google OAuth.

Sign Up with Email

1. Go to https://serverplane.xyz/register.
2. Fill in the registration form:
   • Full name
   • Email address
   • Password
   • Confirm password
3. Click Create account.
4. Check your inbox for a verification email and click the verification link.

Sign Up with GitHub or Google

1. Go to https://serverplane.xyz/register.
2. Below the registration form, under "Or continue with", click either GitHub or Google.
3. Authorize ServerPlane when prompted by the OAuth provider.
4. Your account is created automatically using your provider profile information.

Signing In

If you already have an account, go to https://serverplane.xyz/login and sign in with:

• Email and password — enter your credentials and click Sign in. Optionally check Remember me to stay signed in.
• GitHub or Google — click the corresponding button under "Or continue with".

If you forgot your password, click Forgot password? on the login page to receive a reset link via email.

Setting Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds a second layer of security using a time-based one-time password (TOTP) app like Google Authenticator, Authy, or 1Password.

1. Sign in and navigate to Settings > Profile (or click your name in the top-right corner and select Profile).
2. Scroll to the two-factor authentication section.
3. Click Enable to begin setup.
4. Scan the QR code with your authenticator app.
5. Enter the 6-digit code from your authenticator app to confirm.
6. Save your recovery codes in a secure location. These one-time-use codes let you sign in if you lose access to your authenticator app.

Recovery Codes

• Each recovery code can only be used once.
• You can regenerate a new set of recovery codes from the same Profile settings page — this invalidates all previous codes.
• Store them somewhere safe (password manager, printed copy, etc.), not on the same device as your authenticator app.

Tips

• If you sign up via OAuth and later want to set a password (e.g., for 2FA recovery), use the Forgot password? flow on the login page to create one.
• You can link both GitHub and Google to the same account as long as they share the same email address.
