Minecraft Title Command Tutorial. Learn How To Use All Title Commands In This Minecraft Video!

Hey everybody, it’s UnderMyCap, and welcome back to another video. Today I’m going to show you how to use the /title command in Minecraft Java Edition. Let’s get straight into it.

Where You Can Use the /title Command

You can run this command either in the chat/command console or using command blocks. I’ll demonstrate everything with command blocks because it’s an easier way to explain what’s happening, but both methods work the same.

Getting a Command Block

First, you’ll need a command block. To get one, use the command that gives you a command block, then place it down.

Step 1: Set Title Timing with times

The first part I recommend setting up is times. This is one of the most important settings, and it’s also the reason many people think the title command “isn’t working.”

By default, the title timings are set to:

0 0 0

These three numbers represent:

fade in, stay, and fade out

If they’re all set to zero, the title may not appear at all because it has no time to fade in or stay on screen. Personally, I usually set them to:

10 10 10

That gives enough time for the title to fade in, remain visible, and fade out. You can adjust these values however you like, depending on the effect you want.

Step 2: Display Text in the Action Bar with actionbar

Next is actionbar, which is a really cool option because it displays text near the bottom of the screen, just above your hotbar/GUI.

To demonstrate, you can set an action bar message like:

"test"

Use quotation marks because the command requires text to be in a specific format so it knows where your message begins and ends. If you’re only using numbers, you don’t need quotation marks—but for words or sentences, you do.

When you press the button (or run the command), you’ll see the word “test” appear in the action bar area.

Step 3: Display a Center Screen Title with title

The next option is title. This displays large text in the center of the screen. Just like before, make sure your times are set correctly (for example, 10 10 10), otherwise it may not display as expected.

Step 4: Add a Subtitle with subtitle

subtitle works the same way as title, except it appears underneath the main title.

One important detail: if you only set a subtitle without setting a title, it may not display. Once you set both a title and a subtitle, you’ll see them appear together.

Also note that if you place the command blocks next to each other and trigger them at the same time, they’ll both run together. If you don’t want them to display simultaneously, keep them separate and control when each one is triggered. If you do want them triggered together, you can wire them to the same redstone signal.

Step 5: Remove Titles Instantly with clear

The clear option clears anything currently being displayed. For example, if a title is showing on screen and you run clear, the title will instantly stop displaying. The same applies to subtitles.

Step 6: Restore Defaults with reset

reset resets the title system back to its default state. In practice, this clears what you’ve set up so nothing displays unless you send a new title again. It’s useful when you want to completely wipe the current title configuration and start fresh.

Wrapping Up

That’s about it for the /title command tutorial. Thanks so much for watching—I hope it made sense. I tried to keep it as quick as possible.

I’m also hoping to make a bunch more Bedrock tutorials. I personally find Java commands easier to use, and more people seem to be using them, but if you want more Bedrock content, let me know in the comments.
