Search-friendly plugin badge coverage
This page helps teams find Minecraft plugin badges for Spigot, Hangar, Modrinth, and GitHub with endpoint-ready examples that can be embedded in README files, docs portals, forum topics, and changelog pages.
What the shield endpoints do
Each badge is generated from /shields/plugins/{plugin}/{metric}.png so you can expose live plugin metadata without manually editing images.
Metrics users actually care about
Show versions, downloads, ratings, status, Minecraft compatibility, server software support, GitHub stars, Modrinth followers, Hangar stars, and more.
Made for documentation & conversion
Use the same badge URLs in your Spigot overview, Hangar page, Modrinth description, GitHub README, docs site, or support topic.
Platform-specific badge examples
Spigot badges
Highlight version, rating, spigot-downloads, and compatibility shields in your resource overview.
Great for quick trust signals above long BBCode descriptions.
Hangar badges
Show hangar-version, hangar-downloads, hangar-stars, and hangar-watchers next to Paper-focused install docs.
Useful when you want Paper users to see project momentum instantly.
Modrinth badges
Promote modrinth-version, modrinth-downloads, and modrinth-followers in changelogs, wiki pages, and project pages.
Perfect for release notes and modern Markdown-first documentation.
GitHub / README badges
Expose github-release, github-stars, github-forks, github-issues, and license above your installation guide.
That keeps your README current without regenerating static badge assets.

Because the endpoints are dynamic, you do not need to rebuild images every time a version or count changes.
Unify your message
The same endpoint language is used in the EzBanners API and plugin docs, so your internal docs, public docs, and landing content stay aligned.
