Warped Sign
Warped Sign is a fire-resistant Nether-wood sign block crafted from Warped Planks and a stick, ideal for labeling builds in lava-heavy Nether bases.
Description
Warped Sign stores editable written messages on both front and back faces, waterlogs without popping, and was added to Java Edition 1.16 and Bedrock 1.16.0 alongside the rest of the warped family. Builders pair Warped Sign with Crimson Sign to color-code Nether hubs, mark storage rooms, and label farms inside lava-rich bases where Overworld signs would burn. The recipe matches every other wood family — six planks plus one stick — and a single Warped Stem yields four planks, so two stems feed a full batch of three signs. Warped Sign is renewable, since players grow giant warped fungi on Warped Nylium with bone meal and harvest the stems endlessly.

How to craft and place a Warped Sign in Minecraft
-
1
Gather Warped Stems in the Nether
Travel to a warped forest biome in the Nether, find a giant warped fungus growing on Warped Nylium, and chop the cyan Warped Stem with any axe.
-
2
Craft Warped Planks
Place one Warped Stem in any crafting grid to receive four Warped Planks — the base material for every warped-family block.
-
3
Craft the Warped Sign
Fill the top two rows of a crafting table with six Warped Planks and place one stick in the bottom-middle slot to produce three Warped Signs.
-
4
Place and write on the sign
Right-click a solid block face to stand the Warped Sign, then type up to four lines of text that display on both the front and back faces.
-
5
Waterlog or mount the sign
Place Warped Sign in water to waterlog the block instead of popping, or mount it on a wall — the nether-wood sign resists fire in either spot.

Frequently asked questions
Can you craft a Warped Sign?
Yes. Place six Warped Planks in the top two rows of a crafting table and one stick in the bottom-middle slot to craft three Warped Signs.

Yes. Players grow giant warped fungi on Warped Nylium using bone meal, harvest the Warped Stems, and craft fresh planks and signs endlessly.
Does a Warped Sign burn in lava or fire?
No. Warped Sign is nether wood, which resists fire and cannot be used as furnace fuel, unlike oak or spruce signs.

Can a Warped Sign be waterlogged?
Yes. Warped Sign waterlogs when placed in water, so it stays in place instead of popping out like a torch.

Warped Sign stacks to 16 items per slot, with hardness 1 and blast resistance 1 — the same values as every other wood sign.
