My bad, everything works)

warm topaz Jan 9, 2021, 12:56 AM

#

👍

dawn bloom Jan 9, 2021, 12:56 AM

#

but what about play time?

warm topaz Jan 9, 2021, 12:57 AM

#

u would probably need a more advanced solution for that, such as the LeaderHeads plugin

dawn bloom Jan 9, 2021, 12:58 AM

#

in essentials u can find with /whois how much he played

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 12:59 AM

#

yeah but if you want a leaderboard you need LeaderHeads

#

Essentials doesn't have a leaderboard for playtime

dawn bloom Jan 9, 2021, 12:59 AM

#

Yeah, i noticed

#

can I somehow limit the numbers after the point?(in baltop)

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 1:00 AM

#

you can remove everything after point but that's all

#

don't think there is way to limit decimals

warm topaz Jan 9, 2021, 1:01 AM

#

math?

dawn bloom Jan 9, 2021, 1:01 AM

#

hahah, how i can remove then

warm topaz Jan 9, 2021, 1:01 AM

#

js?

#

possibly formatter?

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 1:01 AM

well I guess js.

but not directly from the top placeholders

just do it here ;-;

eternal wedge Jan 9, 2021, 3:16 AM

#

So I'm trying to write a script that changes the ftop value in chat from n/a to nothing. ( When a faction doesn't have any value it shows the faction ftop as n/a in chat and on featherboard) basically I don't know where or how to start

austere hawk Jan 9, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

wise goblet Where did that expansion come from exactly?

This is mine, it already works fine on my one server 1.8.8, but when I try to run it now on another server, I get an error

Send the jar to me ;-;

    if the player prefix is "n/a"
      set the result to " "
    else:
      set the result to "%ftopaddon_faction_rank%"
``` I know its wrong but could i get a hand on how to do it

austere hawk Jan 9, 2021, 3:43 AM

#

wise goblet Send the jar to me ;-;

a couple of minutes, I guess what the problem is

#

    @Override
    public boolean canRegister(){
        return (semperchat = (SemperChatPlaceholders) Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin(getRequiredPlugin())) != null;
    }

I don’t know why it didn’t work, I deleted it and it worked, maybe it was due to some kind of logic change in Paper 1.12.2
Since I don't need this check, everything is fine)

#

hm

#

no, it didn't work xD

#

@wise goblet sent to private messages jars

#

 @Override
    public boolean canRegister(){
        return true;
    }

tried it this way
but got an error in the console

Hello, so I have this plugin called Items Adder which allows you to use custom images in text, gui, signs, ... There is an integration for it to work with Placeholder API. I only recently discovered this but default players see %img_imagenamehere% instead of say the image of a heart emoji.

I can see all the placeholders with no issue. So this must be a permissions thing. Players also have custom image prefix so it's an actual image of PLAYER playername >> Hey guys This seems to work fine but when it comes to placeholders, they can't see them.

Using an image in chat is different than using it in a hologram, you'd use : heart : (no spaces) and it will show the image. But holograms like NPC's names require placeholder

turbid tide I'm pretty sure there is permissions you can give from ItemsAdder.

Well see another weird thing is that yes, there is a permission for that it's ia.user.image.use.imagename so for example ia.user.image.use.heart DOES WORK, while ia.user.image.use.player DOESN'T

#

I'm using an addon called Betterranks. The default emoji's that come with the plugin work but the ones i added don't, at least not in placeholders

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 4:39 PM

Anyone help me with this js? So I basically wanna make like money needed to rank up and it'll display how much you need to well, obviously rankup. So it'll minus your money from the price needed to rankup. But if they have the amount or more then it'll say /rankup

It'd obv need to be erm, js

        return ""
    }

rankup()```
Try this @tranquil sapphire `%javascript_identifier_200%`

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

Hold on. To double check. I put this in the js folder right

#

under wotever name and then use the placeholder to identify it?

#

using this placeholder? %javascript_identifier_200%

vivid sparrow Jan 9, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

identifier is whatever name you gave it on javascripts config

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 6:58 PM

it's just returns nothing

#

I wanna use ezrankspro placeholders within it

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 7:00 PM

what for?

like you use the placeholder in place of the 200

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 7:01 PM

oh @vivid sparrow let is not a thing in nashorn

#

that's the problem

#

1 sec let me fix

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 7:01 PM

So it'd give you an exact amount that you need to rankup

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 7:01 PM

        return ""

    var cost = parseInt(args[0]) || -1
  
    if (cost <= 0) {

        return "You can rankup!"
    }

    return balance - cost
}

rankup()```

#

this is it

#

he used let instead of var

#

so basically you'll use it like this %javascript_identifier_{cost_placeholder}%

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 7:03 PM

#

Confused a little ngl.

#

I wanna use

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 7:03 PM

#

not rly because you literally have nothing to worry about

#

just use the placeholder

tranquil sapphire Jan 9, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

I wanna use %ezrankspro_cost% and the players balance to get the exact amount they need to rankup

turbid tide Jan 9, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

ugh that's what the javascript does for you

#

just do %javascript_identifier_{ezrankspro_cost}%

vivid sparrow Jan 9, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

function rankup() {    
    var cost = parseInt("%ezrankspro_cost%")
  
    if (cost <= 0) {
        return "cost is <= than 0"
    }

    var balance = parseInt("%vault_eco_fixed%")

    if (balance >= cost) {
        return "You can rankup!"
    }

    return cost - balance
}

rankup()```

Hey, how do I retrieve values from a sql database and parse it into a placeholder?

sturdy sluice Jan 10, 2021, 4:27 PM

#

I forgot the term for this, but is it possible to do this with parsing placeholders inside eachother?:%placeholder_{placeholder2_{placeholder3}}%

silver minnow Jan 10, 2021, 4:30 PM

sturdy sluice I forgot the term for this, but is it possible to do this with parsing placehold...

99.999999999999999999999999999% sure it's only possible with a specific expansion

junior musk Jan 10, 2021, 4:31 PM

#

it works if the expansion supports parsing placeholders within its own placeholders, yeah

#

for example, the %math_...% placeholder support placeholders with {} but %bungee_% doesn't

rustic wharf Jan 10, 2021, 5:16 PM

@vocal folio a placeholder can't be 'asynchronous', the API doesn't work with any kind of callbacks or promises

#

What I mean by this is that it all depends on who's calling the placeholder

#

So if your plugin fetches it from PlaceholderAPI on an async thread, it will be async

are you trying to return [rank] if they have a rank and an empty string if they don't ?

eternal wedge Jan 11, 2021, 12:33 AM

#

so when they dont have any ftop value to return an empty string, once they do have value for the [rank] to return at the start of the prefixes

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 12:33 AM

#

var rank = "%ftopaddon_faction_rank%"

are you sure you're using the javascript placeholder?

and not the ftopaddon one?

eternal wedge Jan 11, 2021, 1:11 AM

not sure, but i believe so, my mate set all that stuff up and jut asked me to do the code

#

so can anyone help with the %Server_countdown% placeholder? I'm trying to get a countdown to 05:00 each day, but parsing %server_countdown_HH:mm_05:00% seems to just return 0. Is there a way to do this? I can get a countdown to a date to work fine, just not a time

#

this is probably a common one, but I cant seem to find an explanation of how it works fully to identify what im doing wrong

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:20 AM

#

So I've had a good search, and all I can find is this https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Server-Expansion/issues/5 which states that a feature to do this was added in 2.2.2, except there isnt any documentation explaining how this new feature works, as far as I can tell

#

Can I get any help with this?

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:21 AM

#

You can always request a custom plugin fingerguns

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:21 AM

#

well, apparently this is a feature in the Server expansion

#

but there isnt an explanation of how to use it

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

ohh okay

#

I'm confused on what you're asking ;-;

#

wait

#

countdown for local time?

#

👀

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:22 AM

#

effectively

#

but the only feature ive found that does this

#

is the one added in 2.2.2

#

but neither the issue, nor the github seems to explain how to "use placeholders inside of the placeholder"

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:23 AM

#

What placeholders did you try already?

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:23 AM

#

so the notes state you can use %server_time%

#

2 secs, ill grab the thing im working with

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:24 AM

#

wut

#

oh

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:24 AM

#

%server_countdown_dd.MM.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{%server_time_dd.MM.yyyy%}.05:00:00%

#

fucking formatting

#

%server_countdown_dd.MM.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{%server_time_dd.MM.yyyy%}.05:00:00%

#

so, in theory, i should be able to somehow include the placeholder in {}

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:24 AM

#

does it support putting placeholders in placeholders?

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:24 AM

#

according to the release notes for 2.2.2 and the issue

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:25 AM

#

oh i see what you mean

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:25 AM

#

but it doesnt explain how to get it to be included

#

yeah

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:25 AM

#

hmm

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:25 AM

#

yeah

#

ive no idea

#

tried {} () .. _ _

#

tried just using %%

#

none of them seem to work

silver minnow Jan 11, 2021, 3:26 AM

#

If you can't find anything in a few days I recommend requesting a custom plugin though

#

I would do it (for free) but I don't have time 😐

#

maybe later if you can't find a solution

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 3:27 AM

#

thanks, hopefully someone will know how to use a feature included in the expansion

mint fable Jan 11, 2021, 5:31 PM

#

that should work

#

in fact it is as if there is no expansion in the file while they are there

#

are you saying there IS a file, but it's acting like there isn't?

storm sorrel Jan 11, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

What I meant is that the expansions get downloaded to the "expansions" folder but don't work, even when downloading them manually ^^ '

mint fable Jan 11, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

and you reloaded right?

limber ice Jan 11, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

make sure you don't have multi of the same expansion, just slightly different names

mint fable Jan 11, 2021, 5:34 PM

#

^ only have one of each

storm sorrel Jan 11, 2021, 5:34 PM

Yes, i reloaded but not work

hmm, might be an issue for github?

limber ice Jan 11, 2021, 5:47 PM

everything works fine on fresh boot of server

#

only break ecloud list when I have the Statz expansion

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:17 PM

#

mint fable what do you mean by that?

release 2.2.2 added a feature where you can apparently pass the %server_time% placeholder into the countdown one, to create a local countdown to like 6AM each day, but I cant find exactly how you pass the server time to the countdown

tender vaporBOT Jan 11, 2021, 6:17 PM

#

@lean crystal,

Hey!

Please respect the rules, be patient and don't ping staff members!

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

So in theory, I would set the countdown datetime format to dd.MM.yyyy.HH:mm:ss then pass it %server_time_dd.MM.yyyy%.06:00:00%

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

{server_time_dd.MM.yyyy}

#

not %%

#

if you use it in the countdown one

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

damn, its curly braces without percentages

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

yep

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

like one of the only bloody combinations I didnt try

#

tyvm

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:21 PM

#

ye most placeholders in placeholders work like that

#

since PAPI offers a method for it so its easy to implement

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:21 PM

#

I thought it was something like that, but was just missing the part where % isnt needed

#

thanks

#

a ton

#

thought I was going mad

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:21 PM

#

👍

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:24 PM

#

Okay, so that is now parsing, which is a big step, but its being parsed as 0

#

%server_countdown_dd.MM.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{server_time_dd.MM.yyyy}.05:00:00%

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

what's the time for you rn?

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

when the server date time is 11/01/2021 18:25:30

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

or what's the server time

#

ye because it has passed

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

im an idiot

#

sorry

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

this doesn't calcualte for the next day

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:25 PM

#

2 hours of sleep

#

how can I point it do the next day on from current date?

#

if that is possible

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:26 PM

#

hmm that's a good question.

#

I would recommend you make a javascript for that because I don't think you can do placeholder in placeholder in placeholder

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:26 PM

#

hmmm, okay

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:27 PM

#

this is where you learn how to create one: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:27 PM

#

ty

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:27 PM

#

I'll make the placeholder for you

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:27 PM

#

oh, thanks!

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:28 PM

#

hmm now that I think about it its going to be a bit more complicated xD

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

its never straightforward

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

the problem is if I just add 1 to day it will just break when its last day I guess.

#

last day in month I mean

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

ahh right, for the months, yeah

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

wait I can just use day of the year instead

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:31 PM

#

I'm going to pretend to understand what you mean and agree

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:31 PM

#

ugh day of year so 1-365

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:31 PM

#

riight

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:32 PM

#

until then make a javascript file and all that stuff

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:32 PM

#

shall do

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:36 PM

#

Placeholder to use now: %server_countdown_DD.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{javascript_time}.05:00:00%, Code to use: ```js
function time() {
var day = parseInt("%server_time_DD%")+1
var year = "%server_time_yyyy%"
if (day+1 > 365) day = 1
return day + "." + year
}
time()

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:36 PM

#

you're a lifesaver, shall try it now

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:37 PM

#

btw change {javascript_time} to your {javascript_identifier} so basically whatever you named the javascript, change time to that

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:37 PM

#

yeah

#

getting an invalid date

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:39 PM

#

can you parse just the javascript? /papi parse me %javascript_identifier%

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

12.%server_time_yyyy

#

oh

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

oh

#

I see my bad

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

i think there's a % missing

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

yep

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:41 PM

#

Okay

#

parses correctly, gives 12.2021

#

okay

#

that whole placeholder parses fine

#

but shows as "invalid date" in TAB

#

looks like a TAB problem then

#

tyvm though

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:43 PM

#

ugh don't think its a TAB problem

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:44 PM

#

oh?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:44 PM

#

do /papi parse me %server_countdown_DD.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{javascript_time}.05:00:00%,

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:44 PM

#

that parses fine

#

gives me a countdown

#

which is why I think its TAB

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

ah

#

thought the error is from the placeholder

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

well, where the placeholder is in the TAB config, it just says "invalid date"

#

but when parsing with /papi parse, the countdown works fine

#

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/665955531370004527/798261620488011776/unknown.png

#

so thats what shows on TAB

#

'&5Server restarts in &f%server_countdown_DD.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_{javascript_time}.05:00:00%' line in the config

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

ye no idea then.

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

I cant see anything wrong with the placeholder

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

if it parses fine in /papi parse

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

yeah, ill take it up with the TAB lads

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

I don't know why it would error in tab tho as well

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

not a clue

#

unless its having problems accessing the javascript expansion for some reason?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

try this in TAB: '&5Server restarts in &f%server_countdown_DD.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_13.2021.05:00:00%'

#

see if this works

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

works fine

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

also try showing just %javascript_time%

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

ah

#

that works

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

hmm then it is a problem with it parsing the javascript placeholder

#

no idea why tho

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

no, i've no idea

#

Speaking to the author of TAB

#

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/665955531370004527/798265665731559474/unknown.png

#

being asked this

#

absolutely 0 idea of how to go about that

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

I mean you can just show him the javascript code.

#

but also you can show him that %javascript_time% works

#

so its not that

#

its something to do with placeholders in placeholder or something. not sure

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 7:09 PM

#

yeah, ive shown him all that

#

as far as I can see, its not PAPI, as it works fine when just /parsing

#

it seems to just be when we add the placeholder inside the placeholder as separately, everything's gravy

#

Right

#

so apparently, the issue is that the Javascript expansion does a null player check and doesnt allow null players

#

but TAB uses null players as its apparently better for optimisation

#

riiiight, I think I understand

#

when the js script calls %server_time% from TAB, it doesnt pass a player, only null

#

which the JS expansion doesnt allow, it must be parsed with a real player name

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 7:34 PM

#

Okay, found a workaround

#

in case you were interested

#

we edited the JS script a bit

#

    var day = parseInt("%server_time_DD%")+1
    var year = "%server_time_yyyy%"
    if (day+1 > 365) day = 1
    var countdown = PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders(BukkitPlayer,"%"+"server_countdown_DD.yyyy.HH:mm:ss_"+day+"."+year+".05:00:00%")
    return countdown
  }
  time()
``` works perfectly

#

so instead of embedding the placeholders inside each other in TAB, its better to resolve them inside the JS one instead

#

at least while theyre using null players in TAB

junior musk Jan 11, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

but I think there is a way by using your old placeholder if you put it in your player section of your placeholderapi-refresh-intervals in TAB's config, or at least from what I understood of NEZ's answer 🤔

lean crystal Jan 11, 2021, 7:37 PM

#

how to count non player placed blocks

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 9:00 PM

#

not possible whit what placeholders exist rn

visual yacht Jan 11, 2021, 9:01 PM

#

turbid tide not possible whit what placeholders exist rn

sorry forgot to say

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 9:01 PM

#

ye I know what you want

#

you asked in #general-plugins

visual yacht Jan 11, 2021, 9:01 PM

#

non player placed blocks break

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 9:01 PM

#

yep not possible. well maybe possible but there isn't a placeholder for that

visual yacht Jan 11, 2021, 9:03 PM

#

okay so i have to find a plugin, that adds some sort of tag to the block that player place

#

that counts blocks mined

#

and gives placeholder using papi?

#

am i right?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 9:04 PM

#

probably.

#

and probably there isn't one out there. most likely you'll need a custom one

lone minnow Jan 11, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

Does placeholderapi have a pinger port?

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

In papis config, what do they think "high, low, medium" tps is?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

no idea xD

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

hahah xD
is there a way to check without like overloading the server?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

ye let me check the code

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

poggers thank you!

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', ping > 100 ? high : ping > 50 ? medium : low) + ping;

#

so if ping > 100 then its high

#

if its 51-100 its medium

#

and 0-50 is low

#

oh wait

#

that's ping

#

I'm good xD

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

hahah xD

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

welp time to see if the server expansion is OS

#

yep it is

#

good

#

        return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', (tps > 18.0) ? high : (tps > 16.0) ? medium : low)
                + ((tps > 20.0) ? "*" : "") + fix(tps);```

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

oh okey

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

so >18 is high

#

16-18 is medium

#

and everything under 16 is low

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

pog

#

dope

#

thank you!

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

👍

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

one more question

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

sure

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

the tps randomly gets a "*" sometimes, before the number. what this mean?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

hmm (tps > 20.0) ? "*" : ""

#

if tps is bigger than 20

#

so probably something went wrong or something

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

huh

#

should I be worried?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

nah

#

its just the calculations they make most likely

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

ah oke cool pog

#

is there a way to turn it off? xD

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:06 PM

#

make your own expansion I guess. like clone the existing one and remove that

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:06 PM

#

oh ah

#

well that takes time

#

and I'm lazy

#

so thank you anyways! :D

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:07 PM

#

👍

#

I mean I could give it a try in a couple minutes if you want but when the expansion updates you will have to do this again xD

#

@true pewter ^

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:08 PM

#

ah hahah thanks but me good, I'll just ignore it ig or use bukkits %tps% placeholder instead if it really bothers me :D

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:09 PM

#

I mean the one that's not colored doesn't do that I'm pretty sure

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:09 PM

#

riiiight

#

while i'm here, the %server_tps% placeholders shows 3 different numbers, are these the different updated ones?

#

like the %server_tps_1% etc

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

I think its time

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

aah yea

#

makes sence

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:11 PM

#

1 sec almost done changing that

#

I won't bother removing all that useless stuff just remove the * xD

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:12 PM

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:15 PM

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:16 PM

#

I mean if it bothers you that much. I ain't got anything else to do.

#

well besides sleep

#

and do other 100 stuff that I'm just trying to not do

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:17 PM

#

hahah i'm fine with it

#

when i'm super bored I can try to remove it myself xD

#

go sleep instead

#

i'd call sleeping a big brain move

#

that's why I will do it now, thanks for the help!

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:18 PM

#

nah sleep is for the weak

true pewter Jan 11, 2021, 11:18 PM

I'll probably be back here sometime 🙃

Sombody knows where i can get this again?

#

I got it once

#

but cant find it back

%javascript_rewards-delay_Bank_15%

#

It manages almost half of my server

#

or did something change?

turbid tide Jan 11, 2021, 11:58 PM

#

wait what? someone made you a javascript? or what?

#

because that's not something public or well known about.

rustic wharf Jan 11, 2021, 11:59 PM

#

Yea someone made it

#

I thought maybe its public

#

xD

turbid tide Jan 12, 2021, 12:02 AM

#

I mean it might but its not something we know of

#

do you know how made it maybe?

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:04 AM

#

I mean i know who made it

#

But he left

#

Since he had a busy irl life

#

He doesnt come online much anymore

#

so

#

yea..

turbid tide Jan 12, 2021, 12:05 AM

#

but like if you know who made it don't you know where they posted it?

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:06 AM

#

He gave it to me on discord

#

xD

#

And somehow its gone

mint fable Jan 12, 2021, 12:06 AM

#

is it still in discord?

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:06 AM

Nope

ah

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:06 AM

#

welp, you could always get it re-made #794429923698802708 #794429922454142986

#

I'd say give your files another search just to make sure

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:10 AM

#

Yea i was just doing that

#

I mean if i cant find it

#

Would u be able to remake it ?

turbid tide Jan 12, 2021, 12:11 AM

#

I mean if its been done once its most likely possible to do it again. it will just probably be a bit hard for the person that will remake it

rustic wharf Jan 12, 2021, 12:12 AM

its like nowhere to find

Heeey!
Is there a way to execute a command with placeholder?
For example /tp %player_bed_x% %player_bed_y% %player_bed_z%

#

Or does this requires a custom plugin?

marble glacier Jan 12, 2021, 5:24 AM

#

as far as I am aware you cannot unless it's through a third party plugin

#

i.e deluxe menus

#

however, here's my legal disclaimers: i could be wrong.

mellow skiff Jan 12, 2021, 5:25 AM

#

I was searching on this website: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Plugins-using-PlaceholderAPI

#

And I found this plugin https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/customcommands.14363/

#

Maybe it could work.

marble glacier Jan 12, 2021, 5:25 AM

#

That would be a third party plugin

mellow skiff Jan 12, 2021, 5:26 AM

#

Yeah, it would be nice that /papi parse executes the command if it is a command.

vivid sparrow Jan 12, 2021, 5:42 AM

Or just get that plugin

FAQ Answer:

Player placeholder not working? If you are using a plugin which supports PlaceholderAPI, and the %player% placeholder doesn't work, then change it to %player_name% and download the player expansion.
Commands:
/papi ecloud download player
/papi reload

Hello seeking for help once again of the same thing didn't got really solved the previous time. I have vault essentials and else. Parsing vault's placeholder %vault_eco_top_balance_commas_#% returns the value "0" (Changing # for 1 or whatever number) but when i do %vault_eco_balance_formatted% it returns my current $$. So idk why it does this. Does it require a database to save the baltop players?

I was told before vault + essentials + a economy plugin but why would it need a economy plugin since i am using vault placeholder. If anyone can help me ping me with no problem. Thanks

Looking at the code of the expansion, it works by fetching the balance for all offline players and then calculating the leaderboard

#

So perhaps your economy plugin can't fetch balances of offline players, but that doesn't make much sense because it should still show online players

#

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Vault-Expansion/blob/ed65d8ee9befdf021083dfeaaa46bbde6299dcab/src/main/java/com/extendedclip/papi/expansion/vault/BalTopTask.java#L51

#

Oh and yeah, it doesn't work if you have Essentials installed

IIRC it was because Essentials was adding their own leaderboard placeholders

Hello!

Perhaps this question is not directly to the Placeholder API plugin, but still, maybe you can help me.

How can a placeholder be used in a placeholder? For example% javascript_runes. {% Player_name%}

Where {% player_name%} another placeholder should be automatically substituted, but now it is considered just as a string.

turbid tide Jan 13, 2021, 6:31 PM

#

so basically you want to use another placeholder as an argument in the javascript placeholder?

rotund tapir Jan 13, 2021, 6:31 PM

#

yes

turbid tide Jan 13, 2021, 6:31 PM

then just use %javascript_runes_{placeholder_here}%

no the plugin your using the placeholder in needs to where you add color, if it's in placeholder it will nor work

#

that has to do with plugins that send color in the placeholder like faction plugins

Use '/papi parse' to test whether the placeholder actually works

#

If so, tab probably doesn't support using placeholders in this way so you'll need to check their wiki

how do i get betterranks to tab to work?

solid cargo Jan 15, 2021, 5:27 PM

#

better ranks work in chat but not on the tab e.g :admin:

turbid tide Jan 15, 2021, 5:28 PM

#

I mean :admin: is not a PlaceholderAPI placeholder

#

its a ItemsAdder placeholder

solid cargo Jan 15, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

how do i do it itemadded says i need this api

turbid tide Jan 15, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

yeah but its another placeholder

#

not :admin:

#

ask them what the placeholder is

sly reef Jan 15, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

I need help with something

#

please

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 8:55 PM

sly reef I need help with something

Don't waste the time of people in this chat

#

Ask your question, don't ask to ask

sly reef Jan 15, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

I need to find a msg plugin with papi support

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

DeluxeChat?

silver minnow Jan 15, 2021, 9:20 PM

#

I'd assume he wants a simple /msg plugin, not a paid chat plugin

#

🤷

sly reef Jan 15, 2021, 9:39 PM

#

^

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 9:41 PM

#

Yeah I have no clue what a /msg plugin is and how that would even work with PlaceholderAPI

sly reef Jan 15, 2021, 9:41 PM

#

From: [Admin] test: sup
To: [Admin] test: hi

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

Yeah deluxechat has that IIRC

#

And it supports PlaceholderAPI

silver minnow Jan 15, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

don't purchase deluxechat just for one feature... I personally don't recommend doing that unless you don't mind spending the money

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

Yeah I don't know how much deluxechat costs so I can't really say

#

If it's 10 bucks who cares

silver minnow Jan 15, 2021, 9:48 PM

#

Just don't think of it as your only option

steep thorn Jan 15, 2021, 9:48 PM

#

Yeah I googled a bit but can't really find any alternatives so far

silver minnow Jan 15, 2021, 9:49 PM

#

You can request in like #794429923698802708 or #794429922454142986

#

plus

#

if you have an exiting chat plugin

#

you're going to have to remove that and configure deluxechat (to remove incompatibilities idk)
