placeholder-api

[junior musk]

it takes the player's display name, usually it's a combination of your prefix, your name and your suffix, sometimes it's just your name, idk

[tulip brook]

but while parsing the placeholder it returns my basic name

[junior musk]

yeah, it varies

what info do you want to retrieve exactly?

[tulip brook]

I just want to be able to modify the player name inside of my plugin, but the placeholder always returns the basic name no matter what

i would like to avoid creating a mirror placeholder

[junior musk]

I'd recommend just making your own placeholder

[tulip brook]

that displays a fake name if the player is hidden and the real name if not

[tulip brook]

ok

thanks

Help?

[tulip brook]

in the placeholder expansion https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion

@Override
    public String onPlaceholderRequest(Player one, Player two, String identifier) {
        if(one == null || two == null)
            return null; // We require both Players to be online
            
        if(params.equalsIgnoreCase("friend")) {
            if(plugin.areFriends(one, two)) {
                return ChatColor.GREEN + one.getName() + " and " + two.getName() + " are friends!";
            } else {
                return ChatColor.GREEN + one.getName() + " and " + two.getName() + " are not friends!";
            }
        }
        
        return null; // Placeholder is unknown by the Expansion
    }
``` this example doesn't indeed contain the parameter "params" but just "identifier" are they just a typo and are the same or are different?

[junior musk]

send your clans script

[manic hawk]

I already fixed it, ty )

[junior musk]

it's just a typo, it's params

[tulip brook]

i am using TAB but i would like to have it so that my custom placeholder doesn't apply to another player if they are an admin, so if they have bypass permission they see that nametag of x is their actual name instead of the hidden one

[junior musk]

you'll need to make a relational placeholder that either returns the target's nick or their real name if the viewer has a permission

[tulip brook]

i am already implementing relational but in this case i don't know who the viewer is

the first or the second?

[junior musk]

well PAPI doesn't really differentiate the 2, so you could either use TAB's API instead to register the placeholder, or you could test with one and if it's wrong switch the players

[tulip brook]

seems like its not working or something

@Override
  public String onPlaceholderRequest(Player player, @NotNull String params) {
      if (!params.equalsIgnoreCase("name")) return null;

      Optional<User> userOptional = userService.get(player.getUniqueId());
      if (userOptional.isEmpty()) return null;

      User user = userOptional.get();
      if (!user.isHidden()) return player.getName();
      return ChatColor.MAGIC + player.getName();
  }

  @Override
  public String onPlaceholderRequest(Player viewer, Player player, String params) {
      if (!params.equalsIgnoreCase("name")) return null;

      Optional<User> userOptional = userService.get(player.getUniqueId());
      if (userOptional.isEmpty()) return player.getName();

      User user = userOptional.get();

      if (user.isHidden() && viewer.hasPermission("playerhide.bypass")) {
          return player.getName();
      }

      return ChatColor.MAGIC + player.getName();
  }

i've got it like this so that i could handle the request between the 2 but it seems like it aint working i still see them with the magic effect if they are hidden even if have the bypass permission

[elfin harness]

hi there,
ever since moving our server, placeholder api keeps complaining that the previously working javascript engine is no longer supported
Java version is the same, and nothing besides the host changed

a shortcut to an answer might be "what engine jar do i need" and "where do i put it in the server directory"

[earnest wind]

Hi, I'm trying to create my placeholders through the plugin, but nothing happens when I display them. At the same time, the api registers them. It feels like the api is not requesting a function that changes the text. Here are the screenshots, that's all I changed in my plugin. Please help me, what's wrong?

@Override
    public void onEnable() {
        try {
            if(Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("PlaceholderAPI") != null) {
                 new PAPI(this).register();
            }}

public class PAPI extends PlaceholderExpansion {

    AdventureDungeon plugin;

    public PAPI(AdventureDungeon plugin) {
        this.plugin = plugin;
    }

    @Override
    public String getAuthor() {
        return "as1";
    }

    @Override
    public String getIdentifier() {
        return "as1";
    }

    @Override
    public String getVersion() {
        return "1.0.0";
    }

    @Override
    public boolean persist() {
        return true; // This is required or else PlaceholderAPI will unregister the Expansion on reload
    }

    @Override
    public String onRequest(OfflinePlayer player, String params) {
        return "Work!";
    }
}

[junior musk]

does as1 show in /papi list ?
Also check for /papi parse me <your placeholder> if it returns the correct value

[junior musk]

You need to either download the JSEngine plugin you can find on Spigot and I think it'll work fine, or you can try and enable use_quick_js in your PAPI config under the javascript expansion's config options

[junior musk]

you're always getting Player#getName(), is that normal?

[elfin harness]

still the same: ```
[PlaceholderAPI]: Failed to set ScriptEngine for javascript placeholder: scoreboard

[junior musk]

[elfin harness]

didnt try quick js

[junior musk]

ah

try that then

[elfin harness]

only the plugin

[junior musk]

also, what's your JS expansion version? (/papi info javascript)

[elfin harness]

gimme a minute its chugging with reload

cannot attach screenshots smh................

[elfin harness]

status: registered
author: clip

[junior musk]

latest is 2.1.2

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

[elfin harness]

"to avoid spam" wdym lmao its not even you hosting the images, its discord. pathetic

[elfin harness]

OH RIGHT theres this ecloud thing

i totally forgot about this secondary plugin system that exists next to the bultin one

[junior musk]

yeah, the expansions

[earnest wind]

The /papi list is displayed.
Since my function does not check the content inside %%, it should output "work!" to absolutely any previously unregistered placeholder, but nothing happens. The function is simply not called.

/papi parse me %player_name% %test%

AS1AW %test%

it doesn't matter what I specify instead of %test% - nothing works.

[elfin harness]

i am using this one

[junior musk]

%test% is not a placeholder

[elfin harness]

still cant share screenshots

[elfin harness]

yes i got it u dumb bot, leave me alone

automod fun 👍

[junior musk]

placeholder syntax is %expansionIdentifier_params%, your expansion is called as1 so your placeholder would start with %as1_ followed by the parameters and end with a %

[elfin harness]

ok lets use this dumb url

https://imgur.com/a/zVVBTfW

i have these expansions

embed fail 👍
yes mods i will continue to be salty about your moderation choices until they make sense for the platform we are being on

[earnest wind]

hmm, I see, I haven't seen this in the guide, thank you for your help. I'll try it tomorrow, I hope everything will work.

[junior musk]

you didn't remove the old JS expansion

Expansion-Javascript.jar

[elfin harness]

oh its that???

[junior musk]

try to yeet it, then /papi reload and see if the placeholders work

[elfin harness]

i assume /papi reload should do now?

holy

it did

wow that was a dumb issue

thanks for ur insight

[junior musk]

👌

[tulip brook]

i am applying magic effect if the viewer doesn't have admin permission (and if the player is actually hidden)

[junior musk]

ah okay

then I guess just print those things in console to see if their outputs are correct

userOptional.isEmpty()
user.isHidden()
viewer.hasPermission("playerhide.bypass")

[austere hawk]

[19:17:10 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] Failed to load external expansion playerpoints. Identifier is already in use.
[19:17:10 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] Cannot load expansion playerpoints due to an unknown issue.

someone know?

[sharp bloom]

yes. delete the playerpoints expansion

there is no need to use that expansion anymore

since u can use the placeholders directly from the plugin itself

[austere hawk]

thx

[sharp bloom]

np :d

[tulip brook]

now that you make me think about it i think i forgot to add the user to the map

[torpid fjord]

is there a placeholder for player ping?

[junior musk]

%player_ping%

[tulip brook]

in the end the code was right

[junior musk]

so what was wrong?

[tulip brook]

idk cuz i still havent fixed it lol

[junior musk]

ah XD

did you try to debug the things I told you?

[tulip brook]

yep doing it rn

how can i test the relational?

@Override
public String onPlaceholderRequest(Player player, @NotNull String params) {
    if (player == null) return null;
    if (!params.equalsIgnoreCase("name")) return null;
    pluginLogger.info("Placeholder is structured correctly");

    Optional<User> userOptional = userService.get(player.getUniqueId());
    if (userOptional.isEmpty()) {
        pluginLogger.info("User is not registered in memory");
        return null;
    }

    User user = userOptional.get();
    if (!user.isHidden()) {
        pluginLogger.info("Player is NOT hidden");
        return player.getName();
    }

    pluginLogger.info("Player is hidden");
    return ChatColor.MAGIC + player.getName();
}

this is my current placeholder without rleations

and its being queried with no problems

but i see that the relational one between 2 players is not

is there a command to test such as /papi parse

[junior musk]

/papi parserel player1 player2 placeholder

for TAB, the first player is the viewer and the second is the target

[tulip brook]

if (!params.equalsIgnoreCase("name_relation")) return null;

this should make it such as %playerhide_name_relation%?

[junior musk]

yeah

[tulip brook]

strange its dying there

[junior musk]

if the expansion's identifier is playerhide

[tulip brook]

yep it is

[junior musk]

btw relational placeholders require rel_ in front of the identifier

[tulip brook]

a

[junior musk]

b

sorry

xD

[tulip brook]

ight ill test some things out xd

[sharp bloom]

is there any placeholder that cuts the first 7 first letters of a word?

probably formatter expansion? but idk how to use it tbh :/

[junior musk]

String with substring

%string_substring_7_<string>%

[sharp bloom]

oh nice thank u ;d

[coral ibex]

[13:36:51 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] Failed to load external expansion playerpoints. Identifier is already in use.
[13:36:51 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] Cannot load expansion playerpoints due to an unknown issue.

fix

[sharp bloom]

yes fix. delete the playerpoints expansion cause its not needed anymore :/

the plugin itself has the placeholders now

[coral ibex]

Owner of the placehoderapi plugin, can you add the command uninstall placehoderapi so as not to constantly turn off the server?

[sullen kelp]

Hey uhh

How can I get a true / false output with the javascript placeholder?

[analog warren]

function tf{
if (ask) {
return "True";
} else {
return "False";
}
}
tf()

[sullen kelp]

No xD

[analog warren]

I'm from the phone, I'm sorry)

[sullen kelp]

Np buuut

There is a %javascript_% placeholder

And I want to do something like

If %world%==Something

It should return a true

Else false

[junior musk]

%world%==Something

that's all you need to do

XD

well

%player_world% and put text in " " but yeah

for example "%player_world%"=="world"

or BukkitPlayer.getWorld().getName() instead of "%player_world%"

both work

[left coral]

Why is griefprevention and playerpoints expansion not found to download?

[sharp bloom]

there is no need for a playerpoints expansion since the plugin itself now has the placeholders

[left coral]

Alright thanks, but whats with griefprevention?

always worked fine

[sharp bloom]

it seems that u have to download it manually https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/griefprevention/

[left coral]

Thanks it worked. Weird its not "verified" anymore

[sharp bloom]

yeah when they get updated they have to be re verified

[left coral]

ah ok good to know

[plush dove]

Is there a placeholder that gets the 4 digit uuid of a player?

https://www.soltoder.com/mc-uuid-converter/ for example the 4 digit part of this tool

-1953028026,-856931226,-1240793240,-1598231354

something like that

[spark goblet]

haj o/
any help? xd

[01:09:59 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Placeholder: %math_{online}-{staffonline}%
[01:09:59 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [math] Cause:       '{online}-{staffonline}' is not a valid Math expression.

[sharp bloom]

it says whats wrong 💀 the {online} and {staffonline} arent valid placeholders

and therefore they cant be parsed

[spark goblet]

aaa right :/

[sharp bloom]

maybe {server_online} instead of {online}

and for the staff idk, possibly playerlist expansion, or..via another plugin like essentials :/ ?

[spark goblet]

yeaaaa... omg.. online is placeholder from just tab plugin...

[sharp bloom]

mhmmm

[spark goblet]

in 2 am in night im think too stupid xd

thx bro

[sharp bloom]

dw its 3 for me

u probably have 2 jars in your expansions folder

nothing to worry about it tbh but u can delete the old jars

[wise cove]

I need to create a javascript to forward %test_abc% to %test2_abc% (only change the first part)

[frozen cargo]

hello

why %staff_online% not works

Previously it was a placeholder for the Essentials plugin and it worked, but now it doesn’t. I didn’t find a similar one in the list of placeholders

[plush dove]

Whats the relation thing do?

[vivid sparrow]

It is a way to create placeholders to represent the relation of two players. E.g. if you have a placeholder for "faction type" that can be either Ally, Own faction, Enemy or Other, you can use relational placeholders for this, since normal placeholders can have a single result for a single player regardless of who is viewing them.

[junior musk]

that is not a valid PlaceholderAPI plugin, here's a list of most available placeholders https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders

[junior musk]

I'm not sure what you're looking for, can you provide more details ?

[real parrot]

hello! i've run into an issue with updating the total player counts in a bungeecord network of servers. i've been trying to get the hub world's player list (on a scoreboard) to update with the number of people in each gamemode, like "Players in Creative: #/60." however, none of the totals seem to update when someone logs in. is there a way to have placeholderapi refresh the total when a player joins the hub world?

edit: never mind, solved it. just needed to change the placeholder to the bungee expansion

[nocturne pelican]

@junior musk hello bro

[junior musk]

goodbye

[sharp glacier]

If I fork bungee, and add some placeholders, and then publish it under the same name, will my version overwrite the default bungee expansion?

[junior musk]

you can't publish an expansion with the name of an existing one

you can fork the expansion, make a PR and wait for someone to merge and publish it on the ecloud

or you can make your own fork separated from the current one and call it something else like Bungee2 or Bungee-Updated idk

[sharp glacier]

ok

I need this for DeluxMenu shop, because I create custom items shop.

How do I detect if the player has this custom item with the nbt tag when he clicks on the box in the deluxe menu?

so please see it

[plush dove]

Isn't there a command to bypass verification

Or something in config

[carmine veldt]

@agile carbon verified it for you

@plush dove not anymore, that was removed in a recent update for security reasons

[agile carbon]

okay

[plush dove]

With PAPI is it possible to combine online players of two servers in a placeholder ?

[urban marsh]

Yes it is!

[urban marsh]

'&f&lPlayers: &e%math_0:1_{bungee_event_server1}+{bungee_event_lobby1}%/250'

Something like this should work!

[hallow whale]

Thanks Ill try it

[distant flare]

hey i want to add [console] kit nethpvp <playername> this command in my menu left-click command but i don't know why <playername> is not working basically i wanted to give player a kit with kit nethpvp <playername> but it's not working.

can anyone help me out ?

[jolly field]

use %player_name% or %player%

make sure to install player expansion

[distant flare]

aye thanks bro worked

PlaceholderAPI alone is taking up 100% CPU. I have tried resetting the file but only with the PlaceholderApi plugin it is taking 100% of the CPU.

If you do a timings report you should be able to pinpoint which expansion is causing it

Hi there. I am writing about Deluxemenus. I am not familiar with coding, so is there any video I can see how to make a game menu? Or anybody wants to share a template with me?

[stone edge]

That's not coding, you can read all examples in DeluxeMenus wiki including explanation for all features/options, take a look, it really helps

[sharp bloom]

🙄 yaml is a programming language!

ofc its coding 🙄

i code deluxemenus guis every day too

[stone edge]

nice bio btw

[restive slate]

I am trying to parse this placeholder, basically I want to show the number formatted only if it is above 10k

this is the placeholder and output if I am above 10k
%changeoutput_>=_input:{duels_wins}_matcher:10000_ifmatch:{formatter_number_shorten_{duels_wins}}_else:{duels_wins}%
OUTPUT
{formatter_number_shorten_{duels_wins}}

Any idea?

[restive slate]

Did you solved? I am also tring to do this

[stone edge]

[sharp bloom]

is there any way so i can make the %player_name% or any kind of placeholder return a value in small capital? ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴛʜɪs!

[plush dove]

what were you trying to go to 🤨

[sharp bloom]

has this been changed ever since? :/ cause i cant make it to work now

[sharp bloom]

nothinggg

nvm it seems that it simply doesnt work with placeholders :/

cause it doesnt change the result from the parse

[supple laurel]

Has anyone here had experience in properly mocking placeholder api for unit testing purposes?

Or knows a opensource plugin on github where i can take a peak 👀

[wraith berry]

You can do it with my expansion here: https://builtbybit.com/resources/customfont-placeholderapi-expansion.29406/

[sharp bloom]

it ain't worth buying from bbb for me :/ cause the tax in my country is huge

[wraith berry]

same one is on polymart if that helps

[sharp bloom]

hell yeah send link in dm

[stray mortar]

Can anyone help me fix placeholderAPI for my minecraft server

It doesn't seem to load the 'player' and 'server' expansions when trying to use %player_name% and %server_online% on a npc

[stone edge]

Hi

[torpid mantle]

Hi. Please help me to check the required potion in the Deluxemenu plugin
I tried to do it through CheckItem but I can't figure it out

[mint fable]

what did you try with checkitem?

%checkitem_mat:potion,potiontype:SPEED,potionupgraded:true% this example should return yes/no dependant on if you have a Speed 2 potion or not

[vagrant charm]

/papi parse me %formatter_number_format_{math.calc:1.5*{betonquest_coalQuest:point.QuestCompletions.amount}*10000~0}%

This command doesn't seem to work, am I calling the math placeholder inside the formatter incorrectly?

[vagrant charm]

this works

/papi parse me %formatter_number_format_{math_1.5*10000}%

but this doesn't

/papi parse me %formatter_number_format_{math_1.5*{betonquest_coalQuest:point.QuestCompletions.amount}*10000}%

can we not use placeholders, inside placeholders, inside placeholders?

[fast knoll]

is there any way to check if placeholder is null with ChangeOutput?

[smoky egret]

Hello, is there an issue with %statistic_mob_kills%? when killing a mob, the placeholder value increases by 2, not 1. any advice? thanks.

[junior musk]

the only way to do this would be with the Utils expansion

/papi ecloud download utils
/papi reload
%utils_parse_formatter_number_format_{math_1.5*{betonquest_coalQuest:point.QuestCompletions.amount}*10000}%

[junior musk]

by null, you mean it returns nothing right?

%changeoutput_equals_input:{your_placeholder}_matcher:_ifmatch:text empty_else:text not empty%

[fast knoll]

yea thanks

[mint fable]

any mob?

[carmine shoal]

Hey does placeholderAPI support kyori components?

[junior musk]

PAPI placeholders return strings

all depends on how those strings are interpreted in the plugins that parses those placeholders

[carmine shoal]

I'm asking if I should use miniplaceholders or more known placeholder api. I want to use placeholderapi on my gui system (on paper). It only depends on if I should create own handler or not to support placeholderapi

[junior musk]

depends on what you're planning on doing, PAPI's whole purpose it for people to register placeholders into PAPI, and use them in other plugins

though if everything you're doing is only ever within your own plugin,and you don't plan on making it go public, then I don't think you need PAPI

[carmine shoal]

basically to receive information from others. I'm making a gui parser/loader where you can create own json files and then it sets the placeholders for the player in the gui. Basically simple GUI Api and a simple plugin to make custom guis.

Might be worth it to do it

[junior musk]

then yeah you could use PAPI

but I don't see how this is related to Kyori

[carmine shoal]

Kyori is used in metadata in items

[sharp bloom]

quick question

does the %utils_parseother: parse offline users too

?

[junior musk]

yeah

[sharp bloom]

sexy

[junior musk]

as long as the placeholder supports it

[sharp bloom]

yuh yuh (i hope)

is this not how u do it :/ ?
%utils_parseother:{superior_island_leader}_{score_variables_island-wheat-deposited}%

[junior musk]

[]

[superior_island_leader]

but yeah, I made it that because of the _

didn't know how to make it work otherwise

[sharp bloom]

aaa makes sense

[sharp bloom]

can u spot where my issue is here?
%utils_parse_progress_percentage_{utils_parseother:[superior_island_leader]_{score_variables_island-wheat-deposited_int}}_m:2500_d:2%

it the { { } { } } even possible :/ ?

i ll use the shortcuts expansion, this is annoying

[junior musk]

the utils on the outside parses the placeholders first

so yeah, you'd need to use the parseother in a shortcut, and use that shortcut in the normal parse

or you'd have to escape the inner { and } with a \ in front of them

[sharp bloom]

of that works in placeholders too?

i ended up using the shortcut

[junior musk]

that works in Utils

yeah

I added that XD

[sharp bloom]

[smoky egret]

correct, killing any mob makes the placeholder increase by 2.

[mint fable]

hmm, any mob related plugins?

[sharp bloom]

that's a known thing tbh

[sharp bloom]

use the math expansion %math_0_{placeholder}/2%

that also happens w mined blocks

[smoky egret]

https://prnt.sc/PbWUc1VpF4zA

this seems to have broken it

[mint fable]

no %% inside the {}

{} replaces %%

@smoky egret

[smoky egret]

you're a legend bro thank you so much!!

[coral ibex]

Is there a pleshoder that shows how much your slots cost in server.properties?

[hidden goblet]

Hey i had a Bungee server with Holographic Displays, but now i must use decent holograms:
Back in the day i had My placeholders like this:
`SA-1:
lines:

• '&b&lSurvival &e&l[TEMP] &r &f&l1.19.4'
• '&f&l{online: SA-1}/{max_players: SA-1} ✦ {status: SA-1}'
  position:
  world: world
  x: 0.46190620275070854
  y: 53.0
  z: 10.522272230021116`
  But now that doesent works
  It looks like this: {online: SA-1}/{max_players: SA-1} ✦ {status: SA-1} and not: 0/20 Online (/offline)
  I tried to use the Bungeecord API (https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders#bungeecord) PS: I also downloaded it with /papi ecloud download Bungee:
  That works, BUT; i can just show the players on the SA-1 server and ALL PLAYERS on the whole Bungee Network,
  how can i show:
  {online players on SA-1} / {maxed players on SA-1} + {status of SA-1: Offline/Online}

[sharp bloom]

offline players?

aaaaaa

if the server is online or offline

[hidden goblet]

yeah

i want that my players know how much players are on the server, how much could be maximum and if the server is Online or offline

[sharp bloom]

honestly i ve got no idea for the offline / online

i tho the bungee expansion could do it but i guess not

aaa

u can use the pinger expansion

[hidden goblet]

and for the MAXED players on the specific bungee server

[sharp bloom]

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

[hidden goblet]

in the plugins folder?

[sharp bloom]

no the expansion folder

placeholderapi\expansions

[hidden goblet]

ah ok

[sharp bloom]

not on bungee ;-;

placeholderapi doesnt work for bungeecord

in the hub server

[sharp bloom]

and then ig %pinger_online_<ip> / %pinger_max_<ip> %pinger_isonline_<ip>

[hidden goblet]

do that also work for DEcent holo

[sharp bloom]

everything works on DH

they support papi

[hidden goblet]

yes

they do

[sharp bloom]

ye ik i just said that

[hidden goblet]

because they have not an expansion folder

[sharp bloom]

why would they?

placeholderapi has the expansions

[hidden goblet]

aaaa ok

check

thanks

[sharp bloom]

np :d

[hidden goblet]

rightnow i did the %pinger_online_<ip> / %pinger_max_<ip> %pinger_isonline_<ip> , but it says:
Online / 20 ✦ Online

a friend joined on the specific server and it doesn't changed, it just looked: **Online / 20 ✦ Online ** Could you help me there too? 🙂

[sharp bloom]

aaa the first should be %pinger_players_ip%

[hidden goblet]

oh

your my hero

[cursive ermine]

Dumb questions as pings are server based, but is there a placeholder that will show the online status of a world?

[sharp bloom]

online status of a world?

of a world its not possible

of a server yes

[cursive ermine]

Correct, just curious since you can pull player counts from worlds.

[sharp bloom]

the world doesnt have a status tho

how could a world be offline

[cursive ermine]

I am aware, hence why I said it was a dumb question. I pretty much just needed response to prove to someone else. There is because we can restrict access to a world which in theory makes it "offline" but the world is a part of the server so if the server is offline then so is the world.

[sharp bloom]

there might be a workaround tho

how exactly do u want the world to be flagged as offline?

if there are no players in it?

if the user doesnt have a permission to access it?

[sly fulcrum]

it would need to be done through however ur restricting access to the world

the plugin would need to provide a placeholder showing that

[distant lava]

Hello, can someone please help me with our current changeoutput placeholder? By default all players have player ranks. We are trying to make it so, if a player that has a donator rank, and also has a tag eqipped, then only the donor rank and tag will show, no player rank. I have attached our current placeholder below, but for non-donor players if they have a tag eqipped it only shows their tag and not the player rank. Can someone please help us to achieve if the player has donor rank and tag, only those two will show no player rank, but if a normal non-donor player has a tag eqipped, it'll show both their player rank and tag?

%changeoutput_equals_input:{eternaltags_tag}_matcher:_ifmatch:{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator}{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_player}_else:{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator}{eternaltags_tag}

How do I make my own placeholder?
(If this helps it changes based on the worldguard region the player is in)

[sharp bloom]

this already exists in the worldguard expansion

https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/worldguard/ %worldguard_region_name%

[slow needle]

but can u make it display a custom name instead of the name of the region

thats what im asking

@sharp bloom ?

[steady urchin]

Does anyone know how I could configure a menu to display AIR if someone isn't wearing armour in an armour slot?

right now it works to show the armour they are wearing but if they don't have anything in the slot it just shows stone

Here's the code i have atm:

 ` boots:
  material: armor_boots
  display_name: "&7Boots (%armor_material_BOOTS% || Naked)"
  slot: 34
  lore:
    - "&7Name: &e%player_armor_boots_name%"
    - "&7Durability: &e%player_armor_boots_durability%" `

[mint fable]

@steady urchin what does /papi parse me %player_armor_boots_name% return when you have no armor

[steady urchin]

blank

just a blank line

[mint fable]

what about /papi parse me .%player_armor_boots_name%.

[steady urchin]

..

[mint fable]

ok

boots:
  material: armor_boots
  display_name: "&7Boots (%armor_material_BOOTS%)"
  slot: 34
  priority: 1
  view_requirement:
    requirements:
      hasboots:
        type: '!string equals'
        input: '%player_armor_boots_name%'
        output: ''
  lore:
  - "&7Name: &e%player_armor_boots_name%"
  - "&7Durability: &e%player_armor_boots_durability%" 
noboots:
  material: AIR
  slot: 34
  priority: 2

@steady urchin

[steady urchin]

ah

oh I have a question about a luckperms track which I'm trying to use with deluxe menus to shown the user's group, but i can't seem to get it to parse the name of the group

/papi parse me %luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_corporations%

this is the command I am using to trying and see what the highest group is on the track corporations

but it is doing the same thing where it just outputs the blank line

[mint fable]

what should it be returning

[steady urchin]

I have assigned myself to the group AlphaSoft, which is the first in the track corporations, so logically it should be returning alphasoft, but it just doesn't seem to return anything

I've tried a few different ways to do it, but none are seeming to work

[mint fable]

and AlphaSoft's prefix is set to alphasoft?

[steady urchin]

yes

[mint fable]

shows in your chat if you have it enabled?

hmm

I would maybe try the luckperms discord

https://discord.gg/luckperms

[steady urchin]

ok i will ask them, thank you for your help

and yes it was showing up in chat, which is why i was confused lol

[mint fable]

right

[outer mountain]

how can i do
%otherplayer_health_<player>%

like this?
%otherplayer_health_{placeholdername}%

[junior musk]

just like you did it

as long as otherplayer supports PAPI placeholders

[stoic ravine]

Hi! Can i get a quick example how to make a shop item that can be reedemed only once for free?

[junior musk]

"quick example" and "shop" don't belong in the same sentence

if you want the idea of how it would be done: you give the player a permission or a meta in your click_commands, and then you add a click_requirement which checks if the player doesn't have that permission (or meta)

item0:
  click_commands:
    - "[message] Hi"
    - "[givepermission] myshop.item0"
  click_requirement:
    requirements:
      clicked:
        type: "!has permission"
        permission: myshop.item0

[plush dove]

Try parseother placeholder

Is meta a vanilla mc data value? Because I believe it's stored on the player data, right?

[junior musk]

not really Vanilla, it's Spigot but yeah

it was added in 1.14.4

or just 1.14, I forgot

if you want to use meta instead of permissions, here's the action syntax https://wiki.helpch.at/clips-plugins/deluxemenus/options-and-configurations#actions-types
and the requirement syntax https://wiki.helpch.at/clips-plugins/deluxemenus/options-and-configurations/requirements#has-meta

[outer mountain]

i don't understand parseother logic :C can i have some example for this?

[junior musk]

%parseother_{playerOrPlaceholder}_{player_health}%

both work and both require a player name or a placeholder returning a player name

[outer mountain]

not like this? %parseother_{username}_{player_health}% isn't work
oh shit deafult placeholder is not work
working well %parseother_{player_name}_{player_health}%

[mint fable]

%parseother_{username}_{player_health}%
this doesn't work because username is not a placeholder

it's literally parsing %player_health% for the user: username

[distant lava]

Hey Tanguygab, can you please let me know if you were able to figure this out? It'd help a lot 🙂
#placeholder-api message

[junior musk]

oh I didn't see, my bad

can you also send the output of
/papi parse me %changeoutput_equals_input:{eternaltags_tag}_matcher:_ifmatch:{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator}{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_player}_else:{luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator}{eternaltags_tag}% ?

[distant lava]

No worries! With this placeholder, it removes the player rank if they dont have a donor rank, so it just shows the tag

[junior musk]

but what does it show right now?

and what should it show?

[distant lava]

When a player doesnt have a donator rank, i'd like it to show the player rank and tag, but if the player has a donator rank and they have a tag eqipped, then it should show the donator rank and tag, if the donator doesnt have a donator tag then itll show the donator and player rank.

Currently, if a player doesnt have a donator rank but a tag eqipped, it only shows the tag, and if they have a donator rank and tag eqipped, it shows correctly of the donator rank and tag. The only problem is when the player doesnt have a donator rank and it showing only the tag

https://ibb.co/CvYXWPP

Not sure if that is possible with the changeoutput placeholder

[junior musk]

is the changeoutput placeholder not working?

[distant lava]

Protectors is the tag name, and legend is the donator rank name

[junior musk]

you have both the donator rank & tag

yeah so it works

[distant lava]

Yes but in the 1st one where it says "Protectors", I didnt have a donator rank, I'd like it to show the player rank and tag

[junior musk]

then why use ChangeOutput at all?

%luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator% %eternaltags_tag%

wouldn't that show both your rank & your tag?

[distant lava]

Because I'd like to have max 2 prefixes, so donator rank & player rank, donator rank and tag, or player rank and tag

[junior musk]

ah

I see

[distant lava]

Yeah thats the issue, having three for players who are donators takes up a lot of space on the tab and in chat

[junior musk]

that's a bit more complex 😅

I can make a js script if you want

[distant lava]

Yeah 😛 if it isnt possible I wouldnt mind just using only donator or player instead of having both

[junior musk]

function getPrefix() {
  var donator = "%luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator%"
  var player = "%luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_player%"
  var tag = "%eternaltags_tag%"
  if (donator == "") return player+" "+tag
  if (player == "") return donator+" "+tag;
  return donator+" "+player
}
getPrefix()

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki

[distant lava]

Oh wow thank you!! I tried this out, it works for when a non-donor adds a tag and when a donor has both donor and normal rank, but when a donor equips a tag it still shows only the donor and player rank instead of donor and tag rank
https://i.ibb.co/Mf7tqbs/image.png

[junior musk]

you said you wanted it in this order ;-;

switch the last tag and player

[distant lava]

Sorry!
For non-donor player:
Player rank and tag will show

For Donors:
Donor rank and player rank will show, unless they have a tag eqipped, then only donor rank and tag will show

I can pay as well, just lmk your paypal or something in DM and can send it over 🙂

[junior musk]

you just need to swap the tag and player then

[distant lava]

like this?

  if (player == "") return donator+" "+player;
  return donator+" "+tag

I asked chatgpt haha:

function getPrefix() {
  var donator = "%luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_donator%";
  var player = "%luckperms_prefix_element_highest_on_track_player%";
  var tag = "%eternaltags_tag%";

  // For non-donor players
  if (donator === "") {
    return player + " " + tag;
  }

  // For donors
  if (tag !== "") {
    // If tag is equipped, return donator rank and tag
    return donator + " " + tag;
  } else {
    // If no tag is equipped, return donator and player rank
    return donator + " " + player;
  }
}

getPrefix();

Works as intended

I can still pay for helping though, let me know if you would like me to send something over 🙂

[junior musk]

yeah

nah dw

Hello, I wanted to ask about the "statistic extension" since I want to make a tab in Minecraft, however, when I put the %statistic_player_kills% so that it reads the kills, it does so and uploads them little by little, but I want to reset them and I don't know how do it, could someone help me? thank you

[jolly field]

can do have a countdown via placeholder api? like %countdown_20mins%

[balmy marten]

Placeholders only return text

So you would need to find an expansion that allows you to countdown to a specific date/time

Or use the javascript expansion and script it yourself

[mint fable]

conveniently, there is a community script for this https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki/Community-Scripts#difference-between-2-dates

@jolly field

[icy hemlock]

how would i be able to select an world in the menu?\ for DeluxeMenus

[outer mountain]

thank you so much i perfectly understand

[uncut folio]

is there way to have something counted on server? like if a player jumps starts a counter using placeholders? and every time he jumps counter goes up... i want to log every time someone mines something custom or wins a reward...

2.11.5 is the latest available version on the repo

[tender hill]

Okay, I'll change that and get back to you. But also, when I import it, it throws an error saying it doesn't know what it is.

"package me.clip.placeholderapi does not exist"

[junior musk]

You'd need a plugin or PAPI expansion that tracks that and return the player's data through placeholders

[warm topaz]

it will do if it cant find the dependency

paste ur pom.xml

?paste

[tender hill]

Pasted.

[junior musk]

you need to send the link 😅

we can't see it otherwise

[sharp bloom]

i love how people always forget about that part 💀

[tender hill]

I thought it was like a live update mb

[sharp bloom]

u got this!

[tender hill]

bruh

i cant paste?
https://paste.helpch.at/nabeyanuzo.xml

there

[sharp bloom]

gg gj

[tender hill]

omg

shush lol

[junior musk]

isn't it me.extendeclip?

[sharp bloom]

fine

[junior musk]

nvm, me.clip is correct

[tender hill]

yea about to say lol

[junior musk]

try with https

[tender hill]

uh.... whats that mean lol... im like really new to java, and intellji

[junior musk]

I mean the papi repo's url

you have http://....

try with https instead

[tender hill]

Oh I see.

Nope :p same error.

[junior musk]

[sharp bloom]

[tender hill]

exactly how I feel :P

lol

[junior musk]

and that is why I don't bother with Maven anymore

maybe you need to run maven clean ?

[tender hill]

I've tried gradle... not my favorite at all lol

[warm topaz]

have u refreshed maven?

[tender hill]

Lemme try that.

[junior musk]

wuuuut, it's so much better tho ;-;

[sharp bloom]

gradle doesn't even load properly for me 💀

[tender hill]

^

[sharp bloom]

but i blame it on skill issue

so w/e

i stick to my menus instead

[junior musk]

[sharp bloom]

almost 800

[junior musk]

did it not find the PAPI repo ? o_O

[sharp bloom]

change the https back to http and refresh again

[tender hill]

hol up

im not getting an error in the pom.xml anymore 👀

[sharp bloom]

how did it not find the paper tho

gg ez

[tender hill]

So I'm able to use the Papi now... but now its not detecting the luck perms primary group

I have the extention installed.

Stringed it:
String luckpermsPrimaryGroupName = "%luckperms_primary_group_name%";
And put it here:
Score score4 = objective.getScore(ChatColor.AQUA + "Global Rank: " + luckpermsPrimaryGroupName );

But it still outputs "%luckperms_pimary_group_name%" and not the actual group name.

(I know chat color is dep but idc)

[warm topaz]

u need to use PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders to actually parse the placeholder

[junior musk]

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Hook-into-PlaceholderAPI#setting-placeholders-in-your-plugin

[warm topaz]

so PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(Player, "%luckperms_primary_group_name%")

[junior musk]

which also mean you'll need to create a different scoreboard with their own scoreboard scores for each player

[tender hill]

wait.. so like this?
String luckpermsPrimaryGroupName = PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(Player, "%luckperms_primary_group_name%");

[tender hill]

ew

[junior musk]

have fun

XD

[warm topaz]

yeah, just make sure to change the Player to whatever ur player variable is actually called

[tender hill]

cant I just call the player bukkit ... player ?

[junior musk]

?

[tender hill]

bukkit.entity.Player;?

[junior musk]

that's the class path?

you import it yeah

but then you need to have a Player instance

[tender hill]

wait... i think I'm calling it the wrong thing.

[junior musk]

and use that in Placeholder.setPlaceholders

[tender hill]

Do I get the players UUID or the players name?

[junior musk]

you can do both

Bukkit.getPlayer(UUID) or Bukkit.getPlayer(String)

[tender hill]

Its saying I have to getServer first...?

[junior musk]

you can either use Bukkit.getPlayer() or Bukkit.getServer().getPlayer(), yeah

idk why both exist but they both do the same

[tender hill]

String luckpermsPrimaryGroupName = PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(Player, "%luckperms_primary_group_name%");

Player Player = getServer().getPlayer(UUID.fromString());

"Illegal forward refrence" ...?

[junior musk]

though this channel is for help with PAPI, if you need help with plugin dev, please use #development

[tender hill]

true

[junior musk]

if you do that, you need a string with a player's UUID in it

otherwise it'll throw an error

since you didn't provide a valid UUID

[valid pawn]

does this support folia yet at all

i see theres work that has been done on github but i am unaware of any papi builds for it yet

[vivid sparrow]

No

[valid pawn]

alr

[fossil granite]

Hello, so I have a same issue as a person had here with parsing a placeholder without color codes, but i cannot seem to make this to work, I did everything as it was said in the conversation.
https://imgur.com/a/LpiAIUm

[real parrot]

Any ideas how to check how many players in total have at least 1 score in some scoreboard objective? I have %objective_scorepos_{bosskilled}_{1}% which is checking score of first place, but how to get at which place score becomes 0?

[real parrot]

I think something like repeating for each number (starting from total unique joins to 1), using it in %objective_scorepos_{bosskilled}_{#}%, stop when it returns 0 score, and get the repeat index, but I have no idea how to code it in javascript

[junior musk]

args[0].replace(/\{#[a-f0-9A-F]{6}\}/,"")

[fossil granite]

thank you ♥️

[junior musk]

If I understood what you want correctly, you have the right logic

function getNextScore() {
  var max = BukkitServer.getOfflinePlayers().length
  for (var i=0; i < max; i++) {
    var score = PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders(BukkitPlayer,"%"+"objective_scorepos_{bosskilled}_{"+i+"}%")
    if (score == 0) return i
  }
  return -1
}
getNextScore()

I came up with this, I think it does what you want, let me know if it works

and here's how to install the JS expansion just in case: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki

[real parrot]

Is it possible to get player's control key as placeholder? I need to tell player to press Q (drop item), but some players change Q to something else which leads to confusion

[vivid sparrow]

Not with papi, but if the plugin where you want to do this supports MiniMessage there's a keybind tag

[real parrot]

I think yes

[thorny geyser]

[LocalTime] Couldn't get mario638's timezone. Will use default timezone.

[manic hawk]

Does Essentials support PAPI?

[junior musk]

it doesn't as far as I know

[manic hawk]

damn

[junior musk]

not much we can do about it 🤷

maybe one day they'll finally decide to add 1 line of code to their plugin

well maybe it's more, but I doubt it would be that complicated

[ocean beacon]

[alpine veldt]

Hi, I'm using Javascript 1.4.1 In 1.16.5, I need help creating a placeholder to parse the message where I specify. I also need to multiply the number of placeholder %bungee_total% by 2 times.

[alpine veldt]

pls

[sharp bloom]

%math_0_2*{bungee_total}%

[alpine veldt]

Javascript please

[sharp bloom]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[alpine veldt]

example
var clan = parseInt("%bungee_total%");

function check() {
var flan =clan * 2;
return flan | 0;
}
check();

[ocean beacon]

?

message output when reach specify number ?

[alpine veldt]

Multiply online by %bungee_total% x2 times

These are different files that should be file.js

No, just display the message in %javascript_name%
For example
Survival-1

[junior musk]

why do you need to use JS? you could just use Math

JS will just make it less performant xD

[junior musk]

and you already came up with the entire script here anyways so what else do you need us to do?

[alpine veldt]

https://imgur.com/a/HUM6NVh

[junior musk]

that doesn't really explain much

[alpine veldt]

I want this to work via javascript placeholders, if it works I will be very grateful

[junior musk]

why do you need JS?

[junior musk]

and you already have the script

[alpine veldt]

This doesn't work on Javascript 1.4.1

[junior musk]

weird but still doesn't explain why you absolutely want to use Javascript instead of simple Math

[alpine veldt]

Please do what you think is right, but make sure it works

[junior musk]

this

[sharp bloom]

yes

[junior musk]

this works 100% and doesn't need JS

and is also a lot more performant, efficient, simple and cleaner, than if you used JS

[alpine veldt]

https://imgur.com/a/P4h1xkw

Where should I enter this?

I want to use this in TAB and DecentHolograms plugin.

[junior musk]

/papi ecloud download Math
/papi ecloud download Bungee
/papi reload

[alpine veldt]

Works

No, just display the message in %javascript_name%
For example
Survival-1
?

[junior musk]

?

[austere hawk]

Hello
How i can make a topbal leaderboard with Essentialsx which placeholders i have to use

[sharp bloom]

use the essentialsx expansion https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/essentials/

[austere hawk]

I can't find because there is no explanation pls can you give me placeholders for it

[sharp bloom]

wym there is no expansion i gave u the link for it

%essentials_baltop_balance_<rank>% %essentials_baltop_player_<rank>%

[austere hawk]

Ok

Thank you

[mint fable]

@broken locust you having issues with checkitem?

if so, can you try updating the expansion first, and if that doesn't work, please provide the exact placeholder you are having an issue with

[broken locust]

I'll try that

[versed ridge]

I have an odd request. I'm trying to get the X Y Z position of the closest mob to a player as placeholders (for use within another plugin). I'm not much of a Java coder, so the best I've come up with is using the the Skript placeholder plugin to get the values. I can use Skript, but wanted to ask if I am overlooking something obvious?

[junior musk]

I don't know any placeholder that does that so I think it's fine

[versed ridge]

Thanks! Just wanted to run it by someone else who would know better

[oak field]

Hey, is there a list of all available placeholders?

[hollow lotus]

Is papi available on velocity?

[sharp bloom]

nop u cant install placeholderapi on bungee

[sharp bloom]

do u guys know of a placeholder that returns the position of a player even if they r offline?

i m sure i ve seen one but i dont remember

[stone edge]

[vivid sparrow]

You would have to store it between sessions, the location is not accessible for offline players

[jolly crystal]

Not without accessing the world files that is 😉

[vivid sparrow]

Looks like Essentials stores it https://jd-v2.essentialsx.net/com/earth2me/essentials/userdata

[sharp bloom]

idk, i think i ve seen a placeholder somewhere few weeks ago but i cant find it now

[austere hawk]

Placeholder craching when i try to download papi

[balmy marten]

Sorry what?

[mental hare]

as i understand, i can't run placeholderapi on velocity, but is it possible to add my own placeholderapi expansion on velocity to add some placeholders that will be available for servers connected to it?

[austere hawk]

Bro add it on backend servers

[mental hare]

not the point lmao

need data from proxy

[austere hawk]

Bro i can't download any placeholder

[balmy marten]

@austere hawk ^

[austere hawk]

Ok

Thank you

[oak field]

Hey, is there a list of all available placeholders?

[viral pulsar]

Hi, my console is spamming an error by PAPI
https://hastebin.skyra.pw/sobuporeli.prolog
How can i fix that?

[junior musk]

/papi info Bungee
what's the version number?

you likely need to update it to 2.3
/papi ecloud download Bungee
/papi reload

[oak sail]

Hey! so I'm playing around with PlaceholderAPI right now for my plugin, do we have any way of having multiple parameters for them? how does the parameters work?

[junior musk]

parameters is just a string representing anything you put after your expansion's identifier

%<identifier>_<params>%
example: your expansion's identifier is test, your placeholders would be %test_<params>%

You can use params as you wish, you can simulate having multiple params by splitting the string by , or _ (those are the most commonly used)

[fossil granite]

Anyone knows why it doesnt work? I have all extensions installed and the placeholders are in the right format
/papi parse me %math_{formatter_text_length_{tab_tagsuffix}}-12%

[unkempt urchin]

Do you know if placeholderapi works for a Mod?

[eternal obsidian]

no

[robust verge]

anyone know how to get placeholders working with js?

[junior musk]

/papi ecloud download Utils
/papi reload
/papi parse me %utils_parse_math_{formatter_text_length_{tab_tagsuffix}}-12%

[tender hill]

As in is there an a place holder for a mod? You can check the full list for your mod, assuming you mean server side.

[real parrot]

Is it possible to do same, but with any other placeholder? (for example %Advancements_secret/ironrg%, it returns true or false). Like repeating for every unique player, check placeholder, if its equal to true then increase result counter (total amount of players, who have %Advancements_secret/ironrg% as true)

Oh wait, looks like advancement placeholder dont works for offline players...

[warm plover]

Is there a placeholder to get a certain line of lore?

[sharp bloom]

u want the whole lore, or to check something in the lore

[warm plover]

Like, if my item has 5 lines of lore, and I wanted to get line 2 specifically, is that possible?

[sharp bloom]

eh i dont think so, if u wanted to check for something in the lore u could use the checkitem expansion with the lorecontains

but to get a specific lore of an item, i m not rly sure

[warm plover]

Dang, hmm

I'll keep checking

[sharp bloom]

the %checkitem_getinfo:0_lorecontains:% does return the lore but all the lore :/

[warm plover]

Yeah I'm trying to see if maybe I can grab a certain line with the string placeholder

[mint fable]

%checkitem_getinfo:0_lorecontains:1%

[warm plover]

what

[mint fable]

should work

[warm plover]

WOW

It does work that is beautiful

Thank you both 🙏

[sharp bloom]

include that somewhere in the wiki sweetheart :/

[warm plover]

yeah really how dare you cj

[sharp bloom]

i needed that few weeks ago

or mby months

[mint fable]

gotta look again

https://i.imgur.com/5jS1LVI.jpeg

'twas there all along 😉

[sharp bloom]

bruh

[warm plover]

not on github 😉

[mint fable]

lol the github has like no info

[warm plover]

yeah true

[mint fable]

very basic

maybe one day

[sharp bloom]

aaa thats on the placeholder wiki thingie

[warm plover]

nahhhh

[sharp bloom]

yeah i always look at the checkitem wiki :/

[mint fable]

idk, it's hard having 2 sources

it's nice to link directly to https://helpch.at/placeholders#checkitem

[warm plover]

String and checkitem are my favorite things in the world 😍

[sharp bloom]

ooof i cant decide

[mint fable]

and utils

[sharp bloom]

i like lots of things

[mint fable]

utils might be the best

[sharp bloom]

checkitem, math, string, utils, formatter,

[mint fable]

changeoutput

so good

[sharp bloom]

yes changeoutput

parseother

[warm plover]

I don't use changeoutput much now since string

[mint fable]

massive Ws

[warm plover]

but I do love CO

[sharp bloom]

playerlist

[warm plover]

and utils is amazing too

[sharp bloom]

shortcut

i do use lately the shortcut a lot

[warm plover]

I'm about to turn 4 300 line menus into probably 100 😎

best feeling

[mint fable]

shortcut was ripped off of me, but it was done better so 🙃

nah lol idrc

[sharp bloom]

[mint fable]

i just like having good expansions on the cloud

[sharp bloom]

well, the way it supports folders is kinda weird

[warm plover]

Idek what shortcut is

[mint fable]

also, it definitely wasn't I don't think

[warm plover]

[mint fable]

I just didn't know shortcut existed

lol

cause i made variables

shortcut is real nice

[sharp bloom]

ye it is

[mint fable]

i barely use any of these expansions, but

shortcut would be nice if i made massive menus like y'all

lol

[sharp bloom]

i think the ones i use the most are math and checkitem

[mint fable]

makes sense

chess 10/10 expansion

[sharp bloom]

🤨 there isnt anything like that on ecloud

its the one u ve made for the chess gui?

[mint fable]

ye

[sharp bloom]

i ve only made 1 expansion of mines so far

[mint fable]

chess was a fun experiment

[sharp bloom]

yuh it looked rly nice

[real parrot]

My server just crashed, looks like infinite loop

[junior musk]

well I wouldn't be surprised that iterating over your entire player base everytime the placeholder is parsed for any player isn't the best idea

I guess this would be better and a lot more optimized within an actual expansion and not JS

[real parrot]

Can you suggest some ways of getting server statistics? (like daily total playtime, daily new players, etc)

[junior musk]

get a plugin that tracks those and provides placeholders to display them

[tired hazel]

Is there an expansion for minecraft /tag command and associated datapack commands/values?

[lean valve]

i need help trying to connect luckperms prefixes to my simplescore plugin?

help @idle leaf

[sweet vapor]

@junior musk can u help

[junior musk]

some placeholders support offline players, but a lot don't

so you have to try it and see with the placeholders you want

if it doesn't work, then you'll need to contact the dev of the expansion and ask them to support offline players, or ask someone to make you a custom expansion

[junior musk]

what's the issue?

[junior musk]

I belive you can check for the %team_name% placeholder

[wet basin]

@junior musk Unknown expansion.

[junior musk]

the expansion is called Teams though but yeah

[kindred lynx]

thanks

[kindred lynx]

I've installed teams and luckperms expansions but luckperms doesn't seem to parse %team_prefix% when I send a message in chat

papi does it just fine

[junior musk]

LuckPerms doesn't parse placeholders as far as I know

unless you mean LuckPermsChat?

[kindred lynx]

oh, do I need an additional plugin for it to parse?

didn't know

I have essentialschat, if that works

[austere hawk]

Hello, can someone help me ? I cant use [console] on delexuemenus
