    In the world file it states you can place portals in custom maps, however the coding is broken.
    Either fix or remove the coding from the world file on the site

    [Portal]
    Creates a portal to a different map.

    1. X,Y,Z position
    2. Scale
    3. Map name
    Example:
    [Portal]
    1000 10 1000
    10
    Default

    Broken in the sense that you can't actually place portals in set locations in a private map, but it can be done to the public ones as shown in their world coding.
    I believe it is ONLY able to work for public maps, as having a private one with that kind of of power would give people some un wanted abilities to travel with ease, or perhaps confusing others saying that a map that isn't part of the game can be accessed thru one that is.

    There should a blacklist of maps you can't place portals of in custom maps but otherwise allow portals.

    Feralheart allows for map making and portal placing in them and people love making huge map packs for rp where all the maps are linked.

    To not allow map portals as a whole is upsetting to those who want to have map packs and/or an easy way to homeland.
