If you need help picking the right one: choose `mysql` if you already have a database or want to have a multi-proxy setup. For anything else choose `sqlite`. The full name should be `floodgate-*type*-database.jar`.
2. Copy the database extension jar you just downloaded *into* the floodgate 2.0 plugin folder (e.g. `/plugins/floodgate/`).
3. Enable `enable-own-linking` in the `player-link` section of Floodgate.
4. Set `type` in the `player-link` section to your database type (currently either `mysql` or `sqlite`). (If you used Floodgate 1.0 and had linking enabled back then; the database type was `sqlite`).

5. Restart your server.
