Issues with Using /give Command for Custom Player Head?

-

I am trying to use the /give command to obtain a player head by inputting ‘/give (user) player_head{SkullOwner:(user)}’. However, I keep getting an invalid command error. I even tried adding a 1 after the username, but it still doesn’t work. Can anyone provide the precise command I should use?

The problem might be due to using the wrong format or syntax, which can depend on the game edition. In Minecraft Java Edition, the command should look something like this: `/give minecraft:player_head{SkullOwner:}` without any brackets or parentheses around the player name. Can’t be sure for other editions though, the syntax may vary a bit.

Asking for clarification about which edition you’re playing can help. Java Edition commands differ a bit from Bedrock when dealing with player-specific items like custom player heads. Always double-check if you are using the right edition’s command structure.

Yeah, different editions can really mess with certain commands. A big reason why people sometimes get errors.
