Leaderboards

Overview

Leaderboards (also known as ranking tables) are visual tables that display player scores in real time.
They are designed to encourage competition by showing which players are ranked at the top of the server based on a specific score.

Leaderboards are fully configurable and integrate seamlessly with the Vex Essentials score system

Leaderboard Sorting Modes

Leaderboards support two sorting modes:

• Ascending – The highest score appears at the top
  
  

• Descending – The lowest score appears at the top
  
  

This allows server owners to define whether higher or lower values are considered better.

Leaderboard Scores

Each leaderboard is assigned a custom score.

⚠️ Important:
Leaderboard scores are NOT the same as sidebar scores.

For example:

• Sidebar score: $money (used only for sidebar display)
  
  

• Leaderboard score: money
  
  

Leaderboards use raw score names, allowing full customization and flexibility.

How to Create a Leaderboard

Step 1 – Open the Leaderboard Menu

Open your Admin Menu and navigate to:

Utilities → Leaderboards → Create Leaderboard

Step 2 – Choose a Score

Enter the score you want the leaderboard to track.

How to Delete a Leaderboard

Leaderboards are implemented as floating texts, so deleting them follows the floating text removal process.

1. Open your Admin Menu
   
   

2. Go to:
   
   Utilities → Floating Text

3. Click Delete Floating Text
   
   

4. Select the leaderboard title you want to remove
   
   

And that’s it! The leaderboard will be permanently deleted.
