Hey! I need help with my PAPI
How can I make it so that I can show my rank in a statistic
So let’s say the stat is kills
250 people have joined the server
And I have 100 kills
How can I make it tell me that I am position #25/250

[ocean beacon]

@torpid path just 30k and you not even paid for me

[left matrix]

'PlaceholderAPI()' has private access in 'me.clip.placeholderapi.PlaceholderAPI'
can someone help me why is this kept showing on registerPlaceholder

[vale vapor]

Hello guys, I'm trying to combine two or three plugins. Papi with LastLoginAPI and at the end using it in DeluxeMenu.
I would like to create a custom placeholder or something similar to display the status of specific players.
For example, in DeluxeMenu I would like to show the status of a specific Admin. It should show PlayerName online or offline when the specific player is offline.
Does anyone have tips for me? I heard of Javascript Papi expansion. Could it work with placeholderparse?
Thankful for any hints and tips:)

[ocean beacon]

show online player

[vale vapor]

What do you mean? I don’t want to show some random online player. I want to show the status of a specific player… an admin, builder and so on

[ocean beacon]

so you just need to check the rank

[quaint finch]

Guys

Can i use a placeholder inside the number formatter placeholder

[quaint finch]

Oops

Its how it works

[vale vapor]

No, I need to check a specific username. For example Justus123. So I have to find a way to display the status of the specific player Justus123

[ocean beacon]

status ?

[vale vapor]

I mean the status of the player. If he is online or the date the last time he was online. So the placeholder basically shows "online" or "offline"or/"thedateofthelastlogin"

[limber ice]

@ocean beacon %player_displayname% is %player_online% joined %lastloginapi_last_login_date%

[hallow pasture]

My console is still spammed after installing this. Any way to fix that?

[vivid sparrow]

Put the error in a paste @hallow pasture

[hallow pasture]

https://pastebin.com/iXSdVM2P

[limber ice]

@hallow pastureI would start by stopping the server deleting all expansions for bungee and start the server

[hallow pasture]

This post https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/placeholderapi.61918/page-151#post-4577149
was replied to yesterday by someone still facing the same issue. I guess something has to be corrected in the jar.

Are you running the expansion yourself?

[vivid sparrow]

like 126 has only the try in it https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Bungeecord-Expansion/blob/fix/EOFException/src/main/java/com/extendedclip/papi/bungeeexpansion/BungeeExpansion.java#L126 which is weird

[limber ice]

latest bungee expansion works fine on my server, running waterfall-1.19-526

[austere hawk]

What is the placeholder for JUST the username? Without the rank

thanks

also the players ping

[trim mist]

%player_name%

%player_ping%

[austere hawk]

thanks but they arent working

[halcyon pike]

Is there a placeholder for multiverse worlds? Like how many people are in that world?

[quasi cape]

CraftingStore placeholder stopped working after downloading Player and VotingPlugin.

[turbid tide]

Just use the Server expansion. Multiverse worlds are just worlds. %server_online_<world>%. Replace <world> with the name of the world you want to see how many players are in it

If you want more complex stuff, such as not listing players with specific permissions and a lot of other stuff, then the PlayerList expansion is what you want

It is a bit harder to set up but it gives a lot of customizability

[analog warren]

Expansion Pinger can check local servers? like localhost:25565? i've tested, but %pinger_isonline_localhost:25565% always show the offline

[turbid tide]

You can try changing localhost to 127.0.0.1

[analog warren]

doesn't work

[turbid tide]

Also, try pinging another server such as Hypixel and see if it pings that one

[analog warren]

this doesn't work either, maybe that's the problem, that I don't have any open ports?

[turbid tide]

I'm pretty sure you don't need to open any ports but I've heard this particular expansion tends to break a lot so it might just be broken.

[analog warren]

maybe you know then what can be used to check the server for online?

[turbid tide]

I'm afraid I don't. That's the only expansion I know that can do this and I've never looked closely at how it works

[analog warren]

oh, okay, thanks for help <3

[limber ice]

@analog warren pinger works it needs to check a few times for the first check

%pinger_online_127.0.0.1:25252%

I use that in deluxe menu and if it don't work fist time I refresh the check and then it works

[analog warren]

what's version of papi and pinger expansion?

[ocean beacon]

just released

[analog warren]

it needs to check a few times for the first check - how much?

I've been waiting for more than 15 minutes, but it still returns that the hypixel is offline

Hello, I have placeholdersapi installed on the latest version on a 1.19.4 server. Sometimes when I restart the server, some placeholders are not replaced, such as %statistic_hours_played%. Others, however, work fine. There are no errors in the console. If I reload the plugin, the placeholders work again. How can I fix this issue?

[ocean beacon]

download server expansion

and use this %server_online%

[onyx valve]

Is there any placeholder for exp with commas or formatted? And also date and time for example 29 Apr, 2023?

[onyx valve]

@slow hawk ?

[vivid sparrow]

%server_time_dd MMM, yyyy% @onyx valve

And for the exp you can use the formatter expansion, iirc it has a 'commas' placeholder

[onyx valve]

Thank you

hi, does someone know the %__% to see the achievements that you have made?

[onyx valve]

also by any chance I have oraxen better prefix tags I did everything correct it works in chat but when I set %oraxen_owner_tag% as prefix in luckperms and put %luckperms_prefix% as placeholder it shows %oraxen_owner_tag% but not the logo I have tried to change glyph size not working

[balmy marten]

If it works in the parse command but not the other plugin, it's most likely an issue with the other plugin

check that it's in the right format

ie %% or {} or some other mix of things

Hi guys!

I am trying to use placeholder api to download a placeholder from a competition plugin, but whenever I type it out on the hologram plugin it comes out like this:

"Time until next competition starts %emf_competition_p%"

I've tried with the default placeholders like %player% and that works just fine, I just have an issue of figuring out how to use placeholders from other plugins that aren't listed on https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders

Thanks in advance 🙂

[balmy marten]

Might help if you mention your hologram plugin name

[scarlet umbra]

Decentholograms

Sorry, I am brand new on the server side of things 🙂

[mint fable]

What exact placeholder are you trying? (ex: %server_time_MM/dd/yyyy%)
Does the placeholder you're using work if you type /papi parse me %placeholder%?

@austere hawk

[mint fable]

%player% won't be from placeholderapi, that is an internal one within decentholograms I suppose.

Does %emf_competition_p% work if you type /papi parse me %emf_competition_p%?

you were supposed to put your placeholder in place of %placeholder%

I still need to know exactly what placeholder you're trying to use, not the format you want to show

you're just putting FORMAT?

Not an actual SimpleDateFormat?

Which wiki?

You need to use SimpleDateFormat where FORMAT is currently

%server_time_MMMMM dd YYYY% should give you what you want

that's not on that page

https://helpch.at/placeholders#server says %server_time_<SimpleDateFormat>%

even gives more info about SDF

[pulsar kelp]

can someone help me on the #general-plugins channel?

[grave parcel]

when i try to type it in to a sidebar it does not work

even when there is no download command

[scarlet umbra]

It just gives me a chat message saying %emf_competition_p%

Hello! I've installed OpenRP onto a server and I can't seem to download the PAPI expansion for it, there's nothing for it coming up on ecloud or the wiki. I can't use ORP placeholders for TAB or CCR, has anyone else experienced this issue?

It doesn't show up on the eCloud site as something I could download manually, but on the usage page it's showing as being installed on 79 servers.

[mint fable]

Most likely included in the plugin, have you tested the placeholders with /papi parse me <placeholder> by chance @wide ferry ?

Also, send a /papi dump

[atomic pagoda]

We're aware of orpdesc being missing

[mint fable]

Have you checked their discord?

[wide ferry]

Yep

[mint fable]

They are unaware?

[atomic pagoda]

It's fairly inactive, we did put a message in

[wide ferry]

it's as active as a retirement home

[mint fable]

ah

I was thinking it might also be posted in the discord

somewhere

[atomic pagoda]

Is there some way to get to the file through papi?

[mint fable]

no, we don't have it

[wide ferry]

Sadly not, the only mentions of PAPI from the last year were in relation to LuckPerms

[atomic pagoda]

Is there a way to extract the file from a server that does have it?

[mint fable]

it's just a custom expansion that exists

[mint fable]

that's...

[atomic pagoda]

We have a server that has it

[mint fable]

then ya, check your placeholderapi/expansions/ folder

[atomic pagoda]

It's not in there

sending you the dump for that one

[wide ferry]

There's nothing for ORP in that folder, but it's still showing up

[mint fable]

I do gotta head out rn actually

but I can check later if needed

[atomic pagoda]

Of course- sending you the dump for the server that has it

[mint fable]

i believe it is coming from openrp in your dump

version matches up 2.3.5

[mint fable]

send that over from your failing server

[wide ferry]

try again handsome

[atomic pagoda]

works

[wide ferry]

The issue, as far as I can tell, is that there is currently no longer an offering of the PAPI expansion for orpdesc, which wouldn't be an issue if I were able to copy/paste it from the old server that downloaded it when it was available onto the new project.

[wide ferry]

Anyone else able to help us?

[mint fable]

I would try redownloading openrp maybe or copy it from the working server

can you send a log of the working server?

because these 2 lines are in your not-working log

[15:43:42] [Server thread/INFO]: [OpenRP] Registering Time Expansions...```

looks like it tries to register, but fails for some unknown reason

seems those lines are just fake log lines https://github.com/fishydarwin/OpenRP/blob/master/src/main/java/openrp/descriptions/ORPDescriptions.java#L229

They are not fake https://github.com/fishydarwin/OpenRP/blob/master/src/main/java/openrp/OpenRP.java#L367

@wide ferry

[atomic pagoda]

Tried it and tried it

[wide ferry]

https://pastebin.com/iNd83pH7

[mint fable]

maybe add placehodlerapi as a softdepend

[atomic pagoda]

In openrp?

[mint fable]

open the .jar and edit the plugin.yml

it's already a softdepend, try a hard depend

[atomic pagoda]

That feels like a hammer of a solution

[mint fable]

And?

If it works it works

nothing bad will come from it

if it doesn't work, change it back

[atomic pagoda]

We'll give it a shot

[mint fable]

There seems to be no reason other than PlaceholderAPI not being enabled at the time those are run

ya, the messages are a little confusing on the failing server

it shouldn't say "registering expansions" if placeholderapi isn't loaded yet

they have another message for that specifically though lol

[OpenRP] Found PlaceholderAPI. Hooking into it!

tbh idk why it wouldn't work with just softdepend vs depend, but 🤷‍♂️

[wide ferry]

It was indeed a load order issue, it seems to be working now. Thank you for helping us debug this!

[scarlet umbra]

Oh snap! The one I used is the one he put on the spigot page, but I guess that's a wrong one then. How do I manage to load that with placeholder api then? /papi ecloud download "I don't know what to put here, for the placeholders to be downloaded"

[mint fable]

I also didn’t see that on the spigot page FYI

You don’t need to download them, it’s included with the plug-in

[scarlet umbra]

so they should just work automatically like this??

/decenthologram create CompetitionTimer Time left until next competition %competition_time_left%

[mint fable]

Yes, I would test with /papi parse to make sure

[scarlet umbra]

https://gyazo.com/3f1a9db411e235b45cb88b0799330fbf

It does this again.

you can not return directly

what do you want to do?

Sorry if it was a xy problem

If you use minimessage, you can do smth like this perhaps

Not something that I want ig

[scarlet umbra]

try updating your plugin

.

[mint fable]

just fyi, if you're "too lazy to copy", people will be "too lazy" to help you

[prisma sonnet]

Makes sense, sorry

Wait, I'll write it

So let me make this clearer: I want to return a TextComponent using PlaceholderAPI, but I want to keep the properties of it.

If this is turning into a xy problem, let me make this more clearer: I want to return a text with custom font (as you can add custom fonts using resource packs) using PlaceholderAPI.

[mint fable]

Are you saying it's possible to have multiple fonts in 1 resource pack @prisma sonnet ?

other than default.json?

[prisma sonnet]

Yeah

I actually made it possible

I just want to make it compatible with PlaceholderAPI

[mint fable]

ah, I didn't know that was a thing

do you have any documentation on it by chance

might be more of a #development question

[prisma sonnet]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/8yjroi/how_to_add_a_ttf_font_to_your_resource_pack/

[prisma sonnet]

Hmm, alright

[mint fable]

ya i just saw that post lol

but does that allow different fonts?

[prisma sonnet]

Yeah

[mint fable]

or does every font become roboto

[prisma sonnet]

It allows different ones

I made my side of it

I just want to implement it to PlaceholderAPI

[mint fable]

can you share your default.json by chance?

i'm curious

[prisma sonnet]

Not default.json

They're in another namespace & another file

[mint fable]

oh it's just another file

and that's how you use it

[prisma sonnet]

Yeah

[mint fable]

i see

[prisma sonnet]

Basically, I need to return TextComponents with their properties remaining

[mint fable]

i don't see any documentation on having other stuff that isn't default.json 😂

[prisma sonnet]

No worries, you can probably do it with my plugin 😄

https://github.com/montlikadani/TabList/blob/master/bukkit/src/main/java/hu/montlikadani/tablist/utils/reflection/JsonComponent.java is an example code

did you install vault expansion ?

[stark grove]

Yes

[vivid sparrow]

if you did and you have an economy plugin that hook into vault, %vault_eco_balance% should work

do /vault-info (iirc that's the command) and see if anything is listed under Economy

under economy i have liteeco and essentials eco

both an PAPI expansion and a Bungee plugin

it allows to have faster player count updates & server status (so, pretty much a replacement for both the Bungee and Pinger expansions)

you just drop download it, drop it in both your PAPI's Expansions folder and Bungee Plugins folder and use the placeholders

https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/killstats/

[runic gate]

https://mclo.gs/5SADp77 Is there any way to fix this?

[vivid sparrow]

https://mclo.gs/5SADp77#L27 it is a problem caused by mythic <something>

[errant iron]

you need to talk to whoever made me.gasthiiml.mythicp, that's not the normal placeholders for mythicmobs iirc

[carmine bay]

Hello, how can I use a % character in my message that will be parsed by placeholderAPI without making any conflicts with the % characters of placeholders ?

[cunning scroll]

ascii expansion can do this

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders#ascii
%ascii_37%

[carmine bay]

oh perfect thanks

[flint lark]

If anyone's interested, you can use Autorank to do this (execute command when papi placeholder is greater than x value)

Hi there,
Would anyone be interested in trying to help fix the Bungee expansion / find a way to get a placeholder for total amount of people online on the server? :))

[trim mist]

Looks like something is messing with obtaining the version of that expansion. I can release a new version here in a little bit.

[trim mist]

Can you tell me if this jar fixes it? Replace the existing one.

[wise granite]

I try

It function, thank you very much

[trim mist]

Awesome

[bronze osprey]

how can i change the version of papi ? a lot of my plugins doesn't load and says this :Unsupported API version 1.19

i have 1.17.1 server

[junior musk]

that's not due to PAPI, that's due to the plugin not supporting versions below 1.19

[sharp bloom]

does localtime work fine? cause i m trying %localtime_timezone_151% which is the id for LA but it returns 4/5/2023 09:30PM and right now its 2:30 PM

[vivid sparrow]

try America/Los_Angeles

[sharp bloom]

gosh i was trying ids all that time while it supports names? :/ ugh thanks for the info tho

[vivid sparrow]

https://mkyong.com/java8/java-display-all-zoneid-and-its-utc-offset/

[sharp bloom]

i was looking at this https://garygregory.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/what-are-the-java-timezone-ids/#comments

[vivid sparrow]

yeah same data

[earnest sonnet]

hello - is there a way to fetch placeholders across bungee servers? for example, to pull leaderboard stats into a lobby?

[vivid sparrow]

No

Find a leaderboard plugin that can do that

[rotund fjord]

Hello there,

I am running Paper 1.19.3 and after server reboot, I need to do /papi reload to see correctly the placeholders

Any solutions to this, please?
https://i.imgur.com/4qLbfXf.png

if anyone reply, please ping me 🙂

[earnest sonnet]

So you're saying there is a way... any other plugins you are aware of that support this? Paid plugins are fine, I'm happy to support.

[earnest sonnet]

sorry for "pinging" - just using normal reply functionality 🙄

[dusty pike]

short question, how can I know the right placeholders / placeholder names of certain plugins, like theres %mmocore_max_health% I can retrieve through the API, but one called %goop.castermmostat.mainhand.goop_misc_f% I cannot retrieve in the same way, because apparently it is not the right name. Is there a way to see/list all of these names/ actual placeholders throughout the server?

[vivid sparrow]

The expansions can supply their placeholders as a list and will be suggested when you type /papi parse ... %identifier_, there's no command or other way to view all placeholders currently.

[junior musk]

well there's /papi ecloud placeholders <expansion>

[vivid sparrow]

ahh yes, true

I forgot about the ecloud, sorry

[dusty pike]

So in this case I do "/papi parse goop %" and check suggestions?

[dusty pike]

or whats the ... you written?

[vivid sparrow]

the name of the player you want to parse the placeholders for

[dusty pike]

okay thank you!

[vivid sparrow]

/papi parse GabyTM %mmocore_ will suggest the placeholders for mmocore if the expansion provides them

[dusty pike]

so its not directly from me saying this, but apparently the expansions that came built in (goop in this case) aren't showing suggestions for that command

[junior musk]

only placeholders from expansions that are on the ecloud or the ones that specifically listed their placeholders within them are shown

so if the goop expansion isn't from the ecloud but instead registered by a plugin, and it didn't list the placeholders within it, then they won't appear in the suggestions

in that case, the only thing you can do is check that plugin's wiki, or code if it's public

[dusty pike]

okay, well I asked in the goop discord for now, might check the code if available

[errant iron]

https://github.com/Gunging/GooP/blob/84f58157faa94d8d84439e032f99f8b651406926/src/main/java/gunging/ootilities/gunging_ootilities_plugin/compatibilities/GooPPlaceholderAPI.java

here's the file if you know how to read Java

[junior musk]

all placeholders seem to be written in comments

[dusty pike]

great I'll check that

[subtle stratus]

how do I use deluxe tags with essentials chat beacuese the config on the spigot site is outdated

im getting crazy of this boolshit

[dusty pike]

the info from the file you linked worked, thank you!

[onyx orchid]

[proud heron]

Hey guys I'm running into this issue with Javascript:

ReferenceError: "BukkitPlayer" is not defined in <eval> at line number 4```
I get this error once the player disconnects. Is there a way to check if BukkitPlayer is online before continuing the rest of the code to avoid this message in console? Or any alternatives to BukkitPlayer I can use?

[vivid sparrow]

try

if (typeof BukkitPlayer !== "undefined") {
  // the player is online
}```

[proud heron]

<3 I'll give it a try Thanks

[subtle stratus]

Thanks dude

[signal bramble]

How do I add player kills and mob kills from the Statistic addon?

[austere hawk]

i have

jdk-16.0.2
jdk-17
jre1.8.0_361

only, what to do?

[junior musk]

your server is running Java 8 while the Javascript expansion requires at least Java 11

since you already have java 16 and 17, you can use one of the two

[austere hawk]

oohhh i seen you at bukkit and spigot forums, but 1.16.5 dont need only java 8?

[junior musk]

Spigot isn't the issue, the issue is the Javascript expansion for PlaceholderAPI

If you want to stay on Java 8, download older versions of the Javascript expansion.
Otherwise, update your Java version

[austere hawk]

i will try place a java 16 on my server, btw where i need to find a older versions of Javascript expansion? i just seen only 2.1.2

[junior musk]

uh

I guess they deleted them, for some reasons

welp, only one option then

[austere hawk]

it works on java 16, great, thanks

yup and no java script error when i use /papi reload command

[PlaceholderAPI] Successfully registered expansion: javascript [2.1.2]
5 placeholder hook(s) registered!

[junior musk]

what's wrong?

[austere hawk]

nothing, just saying there is no javascript error anymore

thanks, you are life saver!

[junior musk]

oh I thought you meant "yes and no" for "it works" xD

[austere hawk]

hahaha

FAWE a troll plugin? java 17 cant be loaded for 1.16.5 lol

[junior musk]

it can

[austere hawk]

i think i found it, i needed to paste "-DPaper.IgnoreJavaVersion=true"
before -jar thing

like that

"-Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -DPaper.IgnoreJavaVersion=true -jar server.jar nogui"

hm, its not fix..

maybe i just need a paper? i just have purpur

just like, if that is a fix, why owners of FAWE just dont saying that on spigot page? like

"you need only PAPER for 1.16.5, and place a "DPaper.IgnoreJavaVersion=true" before "-jar" in your .bat file"

nah, that just a cringe thing, this is not fixable, developers of FAWE just laughing from that .-.

[junior musk]

Purpur is a fork of Paper, so the flag should work

and I see no problem with FAWE's devs wanting to update to newer Java versions

lots of devs have been updating and I know that this flag works, no idea why it doesn't with you

[errant iron]

yes it can, it's recommended to run a pretty new Java version. 17 is a good LTS version and is required on 1.17 and up

[heavy forge]

https://imgur.com/a/SRcYqyB how can i fix this?

Can you maybe provide the full log for full context? It does seem like you're possibly using Plugman to reload the plugin in which case I don't think PlaceholderAPI supports that.

[mortal flame]

yeah I removed plugman then it worked my bad

I have a time that is display only with seconds, is there a placeholder expansion for format the time into minute

You can use math expansion

oh yes lol xD thx

How can I get the player's name in console command? (if i can?)

Hello everyone! In the Math expansions is this expression correct? %math{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%

It has to return value1 * value2, am I right?

[sharp bloom]

use an _ after the math

That way? %math_{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%

that should work yes

[edgy burrow]

Hey I've tried installing killstat but it says there's no module called killstat

[balmy marten]

https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/killstats/ We have this one, no idea if it works give it a test

[edgy burrow]

it worked

funny how it didnt find it ingame tho

[stone edge]

because it's not a verified expansion, can only be installed manually

[edgy burrow]

it said on the github it was?

it said run the ecloud command to install it

[trim mist]

Where in GitHub? We have a lot of documentation so it's possible something slipped through the cracks.

[cobalt ibex]

I need your help quickly. How can I output the number of online players? The API shows the following scheme: %playerlist_<listName>_<list|amount|#>% So, I tried
/papi bcparse me %playerlist_ONLINE_amount% but I didn't get a result. Or can someone make an example that works?
/papi info playerlist shows Status: Registered, Author: Tanguygab on 3.0.3

[junior musk]

https://github.com/Tanguygab/PlayerList-PlaceholderAPI-Expansion/wiki

[cobalt ibex]

exactly, that's where I got your API... but I am not sure I understood everything. That's why I wanted to ask if the command is correct or if someone could write down a working example.

It used to work with this: But after the update it was no longer working: %playerlist_online,normal,yes,amount%/100 on %server_version%

The list "online" is still preimplemented or do I have to create a list of online players in the config-file?

[junior musk]

you have to go in PAPi's config

check the wiki page

[cobalt ibex]

OK, then I know what to do... something like this:
playerlist:
offline-text: Offline
argument-separator: '||'
lists:
staff:
type: ONLINE
included: true
filters:
- PERMISSION:group.staff
- CANSEE
online:
type: ONLINE
included: true
filters:
- CANSEE

[junior musk]

yup, and then you use the name of the list in the placeholder (you have staff and online), as well as the output type, in your case, amount
so %playerlist_online_amount

sorry, wasn't on my pc

Hi, I need some support, apprently on my hologram, the Localtime PAPI, alongside all PAPI on the hologram doesnt work, is there any way we can solve this problem?

I use %[Papi name]% format.

Is there some config I missed? Cause this happened after my upgrade to 1.18.2

Hi! I need some support, I'm trying to use pinger on a bungee network, but every server that isn't localhost returns offline. (I tried hypixel.net same result)

[deep hollow]

Hey 🙂

I'm trying to check prestiges from a player using mycommand

  command: /checkprestige
  type: RUN_COMMAND
  permission-required: true
  permission-node: checkfly.staff
  permission-error: "&e&l&lArefy &8» &7Uhm.. aún no hemos inventado ese comando"
  runcmd:
  - /papi parse $arg1 %ajlb_value_prisonprestige_prestige_alltime%
  required_args: 1```

but it actually parses the placeholder instead of doing /papi parse

and parseother gives that error

[vivid sparrow]

https://m.arefy.net/3NpAa0v.png

[deep hollow]

tyy haha

[vivid sparrow]

do %parseother_{$arg1}_{placeholder}%

But what is the command supposed to do?

See the prestige level of another player?

[deep hollow]

it's for staff, to check blocks/prestiges from offline players

and ajleaderboard allows offline player checks

[vivid sparrow]

Ah ok

Did not see the staff part

[deep hollow]

haha dw

[deep hollow]

will try with that

[vivid sparrow]

Well I guess you can send a message directly

If that works

[deep hollow]

yepp

yeah it works now

much appreciated Gaby as always! 🙂

[cobalt ibex]

great... thx! that works!

Hi! I'm using pinger with PAPI, but every server seems unpingable.

Hi, I have a question, why is this placeholder displaying its content instead of the answer? This menu is from the example menus from the wiki but it doesn't work anyway and it displays the placeholder like this and I don't know what I'm doing wrong

When I use /papi parse I have the same situation

[austere hawk]

Okey, I try

[junior musk]

yeah, 1.19.2 support was added in 1.13.6

[austere hawk]

Okay, now everything works, at first I thought I had the latest version so I didn't even look at it, very thanks for your help

[tawny flame]

may you send me a link to 2.11.2? cant find nothing else on the github but hte source code

[junior musk]

what r the available options for the numberdp in %vault_eco_balance_<number>dp% ?

[vivid sparrow]

the amount of decimals you want

if you balance is 123.456 and you use 2dp I think it will return 123.45 or 123.46 if it does some rounding

[sharp bloom]

ohh

[vivid sparrow]

[warm plover]

I don't have a good understanding of what mini message actually is, but would it be possible for an expansion to convert a string into a mini-message formatted message?

[vivid sparrow]

You can think of it like markdown, or BB codes from spigot's forum

E.g. for Bold:
Markdown **Text**
BB codes [bold]Text[/bold]
Mini <bold>Text</bold> (the closing tag is optional)

It is a way to turn a simple string into a component with colors, style, click events, hover etc.

And yes, an expansion can take the string, turn it into a component and then into a string with MiniMessage tags.

&cHey &lThere -> <red>Hey <bold>There

[warm plover]

That'd be a good expansion, sadly I cannot make expansions but one day maybe lol

I have a plugin that can send messages but not mini message formatting, so I can't show keybinds

But the other plugin I'm currently using can, though I only use it because of that and don't technically have to

[robust flame]

Is there a way to show message "no permission" when im using %essentials_kit_time_until_available_kitname% placeholder for kits that is not in permission group of players

[stone edge]

not sure if that would work, if its string it work displaly anything, it only shows keybinds because its a component (i thtink, not sure tho=

[austere hawk]

I need for someone else not who is reading the message. Like sender_prefix or something.

[vivid sparrow]

do {{sender}}

[austere hawk]

Woah

gaby I'll give you a free kiss if this works

hm

it displays "ault_prefi"

no error though

You are on to something though. The latest update note it says Adds escaping characters. Internally, }_is used to split. If you need to use this in a placeholder for the username, you can put \}_ and it will escape it.

• %parseother_{{sender}}_vault_prefix%

with a \ in between the second }}?

Did you check in the messages config?

Hello there, I do have a problem that %statistic_mine_block% seems to count every broken block twice.
I do not know how to fix this issue.

[robust flame]

there is no messages config

[austere hawk]

You need to create enable it, but if it is not in that message config it probably isn't changeable as it's built into the API thing.

[spring hound]

Good morning! Can someone help me?

I'm using expansion Math

but I'm getting these messages on the server terminal:

[06:47:04 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Invalid Placeholder detected!
[06:47:04 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Placeholder: %math_{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%
[06:47:04 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Cause: '{ranged' is not a valid number for precision!

I configured it this way:

say %math_{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%

Why is this not working for me?

What should be the correct way to write the expression?

Can someone fix it for me?

[vivid sparrow]

Well, are the placeholders replaced by values?

Ah

try %math_0_<equation here>%

[spring hound]

What's the difference between this one and mine?

[spring hound]

Following your tip I get this message in the terminal:

[07:08:23 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Invalid Placeholder detected!
[07:08:23 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Placeholder: %math_0_{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%
[07:08:23 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Cause: '{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}' is not a valid Math Expression

The message is a little different but I believe it's for the same reason, I just don't know what it is yet.

command: 'say %math_0_{ranged_value}*{mob-lvl}%'

[sharp bloom]

is %mob-level% a valid placeholder even?

[spring hound]

It's an internal placeholder of the plugin I'm using. %mob-level% is valid whether within context or commands or messages generated by the plugin. In the context I'm using math, it's in a message generated by the mob-lvl provider plugin

If I wasn't using math and just put %mob-level% in the "say" command to show up in the chat, this would work and it would show the placeholder content. But when I put math to do the calculation it doesn't work and the messages I sent earlier appear.

[austere hawk]

how do you know it doesnt work?

when i will make a npc with %bungee_total% it doesnt work

[stone edge]

1. do you have the bungee expansion?
2. the npc supports placeholderapi in npc name?

[golden yew]

where can i download it

[stone edge]

/papi ecloud download bungee

iirc

then /papi reload

and read number 2

[golden yew]

it also dont work with holographic displays

i downloaded it

what now ??

?

[austere hawk]

😔

[golden yew]

please help

[stone edge]

1. Use DecentHolograms instead (as recommendation)

2. What now? Once installed PlaceholderAPI and expansions required you test it

Run the command in game /papi parse me %bungee_online% a couple of times

if works as expected, then placeholders are working, now you read the 2nd

2. the npc supports placeholderapi in npc name?

I have no clue if that is a thing, I really doubt they support it,
you probably need to hide the name and use an hologram above the npc

(DecentHolograms recommended as HolographicDisplays is not updated for 1.19.4)

and that's it, everything is working 100%, if not, you probably made errors at some point

[austere hawk]

Sorry to ask again, but I have a problem with one of the placeholders which I can't solve on my own. I am unsure what is causing this problem and what I should look for further.
I use the placeholder %statistic_mine_block% to track the number of blocks mined by a player.
Unfortunately after each destroyed block the counter is not increased by one block but two blocks.

Im trying to use this i can user OfflinePlayer to the parameter but

some placeholder expansions don't support offline players

it all depends on the placeholder you're using

[noble wing]

thanks is there a way to check that ?

[junior musk]

well, if you see that it doesn't work with an offline player, then that means the placeholder doesn't support offline players 🤷

Hello,
Would it be possible to implement some token currency plugin into DeluxeMenus?

Trying to make a Token Shop Menu, where you could buy items for tokens (not money), like for example in requirements: has money would be ''has tokens''

Or any other idea how I could go about this? Ping on reply, Thanks.

[ocean beacon]

if your currency have placeholder so you can use this

click_requirement:
  requirements:
    'has token':
      type: '>='
      input: '%placeholder_that_return_token%'
      output: 5000
      deny_commands:

There is no time to wait! Ask your question @topaz dust!

[topaz dust]

Does placeholders even work inside placeholders?

Since I'm putting a placeholder (%oraxen_newbie%) inside a luckperms placeholder (%luckperms_prefix%)

[junior musk]

with the Utils expansion, yes

/papi ecloud download Utils
/papi reload
%utils_parse:2_luckperms_prefix%

it'll parse 2 times the placeholder, (so first %luckperms_prefix%, then its output, which should be %oraxen_newbie%)

[topaz dust]

That is awesome

Thank you very much

[ocean beacon]

utils is nested rework ?

Hey, should I worry about this?

16.65gb ram usage, however console says it's only allocated 13gb and has 4gb free.

it just crashed

[stable arrow]

Yes that’s fine

The heap will allocate more when necessary and 16gb is the max it’s able to

[tawny flame]

The server just crashed due to max memory

[stable arrow]

Are you sure that’s why? If you want to allocate all at staff google aiker flags.

[tawny flame]

We already have akier flags

[stable arrow]

Aiker flags automatically allocates all the memory as start so you don’t, or you set the values wrong.

idk if it'll work

well try, if it doesn't work I have another idea

statistic %statistic_player_kills%

[onyx orchid]

how about job level?

[ocean beacon]

im not using job plugin

[ocean beacon]

https://api.extendedclip.com/all/ you can search all placeholders here

[static pelican]

I’m sorry i don’t understand, wdym by utils?

[ocean beacon]

utils expansion

[static pelican]

Do you mind providing me an example?

[ocean beacon]

%utils_parse_math_{skript_total_recipes.{uuid}}+89%

[static pelican]

thanks i will try it, will this also work with my other progress bar expansion?

[static pelican]

my progress bar uses placeholders within a bracket as well like {skript_total_recipes.{uuid}} which also conflicts

[ocean beacon]

if it work

[static pelican]

i tried this, it does not work

the output is just “%math_N/Auuid%%+89

I put in the exact placeholder you gave me

[ocean beacon]

is {uuid} a placeholder ?

[static pelican]

it seems the issue is the it is parser the placeholder %skript_total_recipes%

yes that is part of it

[static pelican]

^

i need the {uuid} part

[ocean beacon]

what is that placeholder without math return ?

[static pelican]

N/Auuid%%

[ocean beacon]

so that must return a number

[static pelican]

it’s not parsing the whole placeholder and leaving the uuid separate

yes

I think i could get this work by updating the skript expansion to use (uuid) instead of {uuid} but idk how to update an expansion to the new deprecation

I changed {player} and {uuid} to (), but now I am unsure hoiw to update to the new placeholderapi hook thing

[junior musk]

try with {player_uuid} instead

Utils should parse it correctly, and then parse the skript placeholder, and then the math one

[static pelican]

i’ll give it a try later

[static pelican]

it seems to work this way although it makes the skript placeholder not work

the skript placeholder must be %skript_total_recipes.{uuid}%

anything that is invalid returns "N/A"

When I put in that placeholder the output is "%math_N/A%"

[junior musk]

does the skript placeholder work with the UUID directly instead of {uuid} ?

[static pelican]

let me try ill paste my uuid

[static pelican]

yes i pasted my uuid into the placeholder like:
%skript_total_recipes.b3b03ff4-ec1b-46fe-9fe6-6270acc6c323%

it works

[static pelican]

but if i put it into the math expression it returns this

%utils_parse_math_{skript_total_recipes.b3b03ff4-ec1b-46fe-9fe6-6270acc6c323+89}%

[junior musk]

try /papi parse me %utils_parse_skript_total_recipes.b3b03ff4-ec1b-46fe-9fe6-6270acc6c323%

[static pelican]

okay

[junior musk]

and then /papi parse me %utils_parse_skript_total_recipes.{player_uuid}%

[static pelican]

hmm that returned a number

which is correct

[static pelican]

this works

[junior musk]

now /papi parse me %utils_parse_math_{skript_total_recipes.{player_uuid}}%

[static pelican]

that worked

[junior musk]

/papi parse me %utils_parse_math_{skript_total_recipes.{player_uuid}}+89%

[static pelican]

worked as well

i think that fixes it

[junior musk]

👍

[static pelican]

thanks a lot for ur help

for precision in math do i just add [Precision:0] into it?

[junior musk]

nah that was changed

[static pelican]

ohh what is it now?

[junior musk]

now it's math_0_...

[static pelican]

got it

thanks

ill try putting into my menu now

[static pelican]

How would I go about using this now:
%progress_percentage_{utils_parse_skript_total_recipes.{player_uuid}}_m:190_d:0%

this doesnt work but the other thing works

[fossil portal]

is there any method/expansion i can use to 'freeze' / save a variable
i want to set up a variable with the localtime+set number
lets say
%math_{localtime_time_mm}+2%
but when i set another variable to that it will update the local time
is there any way i can set a variable to the outcome of that to the literal value instead of the actual local time, so it doesn't update any more even when time changes

[junior musk]

put progress inside of utils

just like with math

[static pelican]

%utils_parse_progress_percentage_{skript_total_recipes.{player_uuid}}_m:190_d:0%

This is correct right? Ill try this

[junior musk]

yes

[static pelican]

Perfect thanks works

learned how to use utils parsing today lol

[ocean beacon]

i just keep nested and use XD

[austere hawk]

why doesnt work my placeholders

[fossil portal]

-?

[shadow grotto]

Hey, it fixed itself

[shadow grotto]

Oops 😬

Anyway, my uneducated guess as to why this happens:
Sometimes when PAPI updates expansions, the file system might have two of the same files installed/cached/in memory/in the file system, it installs Expansion-viaversion and Expansion-ViaVersion

Then it complains that the identifier is in use and disables it

I think if you make sure any duplicates or similarly named ones are deleted, clear the ecloud cache, reboot the server, just triple check it fixes it

[modern spire]

how do I reset a placeholders data? so everyone gets reset for that placeholder?

[ocean beacon]

access world > stats

[light coral]

I'm sorry but for some reason I do not work filler %player_name% in mmoitems, can anyone help? Extension player is, and it works, as well as the filler %player_name% everywhere works even in mmoitems except in the command, I used to have this problem in deluxemenu, but it was solved simply ...

[modern spire]

thats not just for placeholders

I would need to go into every player for that

[onyx orchid]

how to see player ranks in placeholder?

[ocean beacon]

use vault %vault_groups% or %vault_prefix%

[radiant bay]

Is it possible to make a placeholder appear as something else when it would normally be blank? I would like for two placeholders to appear as "none" when they would normally be blank, is this possible?

[modern spire]

[torpid tusk]

Hello can someone can help understand what im doing wrong in the settings process of this placeholder

%worldguard_<Any WG Placeholder>_<Priority (Lowest number = Highest priority)>% = %worldguard_worldguard_region_name_capitalized_1%

WorldGuard version 7.0.7+216b061

[onyx orchid]

how about players online?

[ocean beacon]

use server %server_online%

[torpid tusk]

Ping

[wraith berry]

You can do that with the ChangeOutput expansion, %changeoutput_equals_input:{yourPlaceholder}_matcher:_ifmatch:none_else:{yourPlaceholder}%

[hardy pike]

i am trying to use placeholder API to create a hologram with the top 10 player times, can i do this normaly or would i need an extention?

[smoky ice]

Does anyone know if Betterteams has placeholders?
