    You need to save it to a file somewhere. No other way, aside from a database which you probably can't do.

    Start by learning about file types, and read up on the config api linked above.

    HUGE hint:
    - You can't be successful all the time unless you take the time to learn.

    Here is how i do it

    add a file in the src folder NOT in your package
    call it config.yml and make your config there

    then in your main class create this method

    Code:
        public void loadConfiguration(){
            getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
            saveConfig();
       
        }
    then in your onEnable() add this line as one of the first lines of code in the onEnable()

    Code:
    loadConfiguration()
