placeholder-api

[vivid sparrow]

since you have % { %% } %

[primal tartan]

I can't find the papi of the Guilds plugin. Who can tell me

[vivid sparrow]

%math_({formatter_text_replace_,__% this is the placeholder it tries to parse, and maybe this %}/100)*3% as well

[vivid sparrow]

#spigot-linking

[primal tartan]

Thank you i'm connected

I can't find the papi of the Guilds plugin. Who can tell me

[vivid sparrow]

=check @primal tartan

[primal tartan]

I asked my friend

He is not good at English. He is next to me now

I asked her to open his account

[heady urchin]

I have no idea how to use javascript lol

any chance you could help me?

[tranquil bramble]

@turbid tide hi, Star is here ?

[modern lynx]

Is there a way to get a random player name with any expansion?

[arctic loom]

Deeply nested placeholders wouldn't work.
A workaround could be the shortcut placeholder

[heady urchin]

Yeah, im using a conditionaltextplaceholder

basically allows me to put 2 placeholders into 1

[primal tartan]

Hi, I let my friends in with me, let my friends ask for the rest

[heady urchin]

and then put that 1 into the math equation

[grim mason]

What is the papi of guilds?

[turbid tide]

Answered in #guilds

[turbid tide]

Yeah. Use the RNG expansion

[modern lynx]

thanks

[turbid tide]

Yeah. This was his response #placeholder-api message

You can try and use the nested placeholders expansion. I am not sure how it works tho.

[vivid sparrow]

Is that a thing?

[turbid tide]

what even is a shortcut placeholder?

[tranquil bramble]

And how do I do it, I don't really understand?

[heady urchin]

Can someone tell me how to use precision in math expansion

it used to be like this but its not working

[turbid tide]

he basically is saying that one of your plugin might be breaking it. I think

[heady urchin]

/papi parse me %math_({conditionaltext_money}/100)*3[precision:0]%

[turbid tide]

%math_PRECISION_MATH-HERE% for example: %math_0_2+4+5%

[heady urchin]

ah okay its been changed then?

[turbid tide]

yeah

[heady urchin]

/papi parse me %math_0_({conditionaltext_money}/100)*3%

[arctic loom]

Yes.
https://github.com/Andre601/Shortcut-Expansion

[turbid tide]

well there's more than just precision now. there's also rounding I think. but yeah

[turbid tide]

yeah that looks alright

[heady urchin]

ty for all help peoples

[clear bloom]

Hello! I have a server with PlaceholderAPI but some placeholders don't work, even though I have all needed expansions downloaded. Could anyone help me, please?

[turbid tide]

can you please send a full startup log and do /papi dump and send that link as well?

[clear bloom]

Sure! Here is the startup: https://paste.helpch.at/iqakukuqay.md and here is the /papi dump: https://paste.helpch.at/kibemuturo

[turbid tide]

and can you give me an example of 1 placeholder that is supposed to work but doesn't?

[clear bloom]

Vault

[turbid tide]

but like specific placeholder. is it the economy ones? is it the rank ones?

[clear bloom]

well it's economy (%vault_eco_balance%), sorry I'm new to this

[turbid tide]

well. it doesn't look like you have any economy plugins tho.

vault is not an economy plugin. its just a bridge

[clear bloom]

but I have another server in which this works, but in the other doesn't. I have all the same plugins and expansions. But, in the one that works I have Essentials, is that the thing I need?

[turbid tide]

yeah. essentials is an economy plugin indeed. vault and placeholderapi are just trying to get the data from somewhere and don't have from where. but if you were to install essentials for example it would take it from there and it will work

[clear bloom]

Oh thanks! It worked!

[turbid tide]

👍

[flat peak]

is there a placeholder for the worldguard region title of the region you're currently standing in?

[turbid tide]

by title you mean name? then: %worldguard_region_name% %worldguard_region_name_capitalized%

you can find the rest of the placeholders here: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/placeholders#worldguard

[flat peak]

i mean the title that comes on your screen when entering a region

if set up

[turbid tide]

ah. nope. no placeholder for that

[flat peak]

oh rip

also is this craftconomy or craftconomy3?

%craftconomy_<currency>[option]%

[turbid tide]

according to the wiki it is for this plugin: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/craftconomy.2395/

it may still work with forks

or stuff like that

[flat peak]

i dont find what's the difference between craftconomy and "" 3

[turbid tide]

can you link me craftconomy 3?

[flat peak]

well i downloaded it from the same above

so i assume it's the same

[turbid tide]

oh. probably

I mean the one from above

is at major version 3

so probably that's the difference. just a more updated one

[flat peak]

yea probably

hmm the placeholder doesnt seems to working

maybe i entered it wrongly

https://bit.ly/3jhPoLt

doesnt work

[turbid tide]

can you try with /papi parse me %placeholder% ?

[turbid tide]

can you paste the placeholder you've tried in here as well pelase?

[flat peak]

that shows the same text i enter so doesnt work

and the placeholders are
%craftconomy_coin_@int% and
%craftconomy_dollar_@int%

[turbid tide]

ugh. doesn't int need to be a number there?

oh nvm. it does not

can you send a full startup log @flat peak please?

[vivid swift]

hi will it be an update for vault ?

[turbid tide]

update for vault? this is not the Vault discord server

[vivid swift]

vault papi extension its not u guys ?

[turbid tide]

oh. what update does it need?

thought you were talking about the plugin since you didn't mention extension

[vivid swift]

%vault_eco_top_balance_#% does not workd on 1.17.1 with last vault update and last papi update

[flat peak]

https://paste.helpch.at/dujusamuli.md

[turbid tide]

that's intentional. they've been removed completely from the vault expansion. you can still use them if you want. but they're being moved in the essentials expansion.

Few reasons they're been disabled and moved:

• They used to work only with essentials anyways
• They were very very laggy for no reason.

[vivid swift]

but if i choose 2 version beind of vault expension it work but it bring my server up to 100 % cpu usage and ram

[turbid tide]

yup. that's why they've been removed from vault expansion

there's a test build pinned if you want to try it. for essentials expansion I mean

[vivid swift]

do you have the placeolder for essential that give baltop ?

[turbid tide]

if you jump to the build message above or under

they're listed

[vivid swift]

yes i would love thise expension 😄

i am lost where is the build message in discord or on essential site ?

[turbid tide]

oh yeah... [18:21:52] [Server thread/WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] craftconomy is attempting to register placeholders via a PlaceholderHook class which is no longer supported! the CraftConomy expansion needs updating.

[turbid tide]

in this discord. see the pinned messages.

[flat peak]

oh is there any way i can do something?

[turbid tide]

the only way would be to contact the developer of the expansion but he seems to not have been around for a while. You could also contact the developers of the CraftConomy plugin itself and add them to add official placeholders instead

[flat peak]

or i can use another economy plugin XD

[turbid tide]

yeah. why not use essentials?

[flat peak]

but yea thanks for your help

uhh maybe

[turbid tide]

its economy is pretty solid

[vivid swift]

i have find the essential expenssion but not able to find new placeholder 😦

[flat peak]

i'm looking for one which supports atleast 2 currencies

[turbid tide]

ah. well then try looking at either: GemsEconomy or MultiEconomy

[turbid tide]

do you see the jump button?

press it

it will take you here:

I'll just update the pinned in a second tho to have them listed there

[vivid swift]

mayby my adblock 😦

maybe *

thanks alot for ur time

[turbid tide]

adblock? what would your adblock have to do with this? do you use discord web?

but you're welcome 👍

btw @vivid swift you will need to use development builds of essentials as well

it doesn't work on 2.18.x

you can find them here: https://essentialsx.net/downloads.html

[vivid swift]

yep already have dev build 😄 thanks alot

[turbid tide]

yw 👍

[vivid swift]

work like a charm 😄

Blitz u are THE man 😄 have a great day

[turbid tide]

New test build for the Essentials Expansion. This one adds the baltop placeholders that were removed from the Vault Expansion with a lot of performance improvement.

Added placeholders:

%essentials_baltop_balance_fixed_<position>%
%essentials_baltop_balance_formatted_<position>%
%essentials_baltop_balance_commas_<position>%
%essentials_baltop_balance_<position>%
%essentials_baltop_player_<position>%```

As you can see the formatting from vault will still work here.
Exampels:
```diff
- fixed: 1000000
- formatted: 1M
- commas: 1,000,000.00
- no special format: 1000000.00

The player placeholder returns the display name of the player from the respective possition.

All positions start from 0. So:```diff

• Top 1 will be position 0
• Top 2 will be position 1
• etc```

At the moment, the baltop placeholders might not load when you start the server. You will probably have to run a command like /baltop to load them into cache and then they will work.

[turbid tide]

u too man. and you're welcome

@errant iron what u think of my message? xD

[latent cargo]

Didn't you use to be staff for Discord Bot Maker or something.

[violet shell]

whats the best way to make a leaderboard with placeholders? Is there any easy way to do that?

[warm topaz]

some expansions may already handle a leaderboard, but there is a plugin called LeaderHeads that can manage leaderboards for all placeholders

[turbid tide]

LeaderHeads or ajLeaderboards

[violet shell]

any comment on which is better (prefermance or usability wise)

welp leaderheads doens't have 1.17 supported and hasn't been updated as recently, so i'll use aj

[errant iron]

Looks pretty good!

[arctic loom]

No.

Would never support such a lazy thing

[turbid tide]

lmao

[latent cargo]

Where do i know you from then 🤨

[arctic loom]

Imagine there being like a tab that shows what servers you share with someone...

[latent cargo]

Already looked

• doesn't really make sense though because i never talk in them.

Luckperms?

[grim urchin]

Regarding the PAPI plugin. There are no placeholders for checking achievements? Or can I make a check in some other way?

[turbid tide]

pretty sure there are placeholders for that

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/placeholders#advancements @grim urchin

[grim urchin]

I forgot to look there for something 😄

[arctic loom]

Yeah. Was mod there for a while

[slate berry]

hello is there any way that i can display a given value for a given placeholder? e.g.% statistic_mine_block_usernr1%? I'd like to rank anything like block mining.

Sorry but my bad eng :<

E.g.
%statistic_mine_block_user1%
%statistic_mine_block_user2%
Etc

[turbid tide]

You can use a plugin like LeaderHeads or ajLeaderBoards to create leaderboards for a lot of placeholders

[random hornet]

so how to register custom placeholder?

i am using a placeholderexpansion class and PlaceholderAPI.registerPlaceholderHook(bla bla bla
this method seems to be deprecated

[turbid tide]

new PlaceholderClass().register() in your enable method

[random hornet]

thx a lot

[gloomy flume]

is there a placeholder to check the server time?

like if the time is to 0 ticks there is a boolean

[vivid sparrow]

%player_world_time%

[gloomy flume]

and i can do something with javascript papi?

[turbid tide]

probably. yeah

[slow crystal]

can papi expansions be used for offline players?

eg can i parse %player_name% without the player being online

if not why the heck does it take an OfflinePlayer

[balmy marten]

yeah u can

up to the expansion if it allows offline player

but papi should let you

[slow crystal]

hmm

[balmy marten]

eg most of the essentials placeholders work offline

[slow crystal]

does the player expansion?

[balmy marten]

certain things might

[slow crystal]

hmm okay

doesn't seem like it 😦

[balmy marten]

which placeholder?

[slow crystal]

player_name

oh wait

it should

so

im guessing this is a problem on my end https://img.bristermitten.me/screen_2021-08-04_12-58-29_znDE.png

[balmy marten]

yeah it would return nothing if it failed

[slow crystal]

oh yeah okay

thanks

[balmy marten]

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Player-Expansion/blob/master/src/main/java/com/extendedclip/papi/expansion/player/PlayerExpansion.java

most work with offline players

[slow crystal]

yeah i was looking at that, just misread it

[balmy marten]

cool beans

[slow crystal]

https://img.bristermitten.me/screen_2021-08-04_13-08-10_rzcE.png

uh

oh it's because player.getName() is null

nvm me

[turbid tide]

smh.

[turbid tide]

yo @slow crystal you need a lot of players to join your server btw?

or what u need this for?

May I introduce you to Server-Side bots? xD https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/fake-players-server-side-bots.91163/

[vivid sparrow]

lambda attack

[hard basalt]

btw

what is lambda command ?

[granite reef]

anyone know the placeholder for unique player count # ?

I want it in the welcome msg

[turbid tide]

%server_unique_joins% 👍

[trim mist]

TIL

[granite reef]

ty

[grim urchin]

I have a problem installing JavaScript. Below is the error.

[PlaceholderAPI] expansion class JavascriptExpansion is outdated:
Failed to load due to a [NoClassDefFoundError], attempted to use org/openjdk/nashorn/api/scripting/NashornScriptEngineFactory

[granite reef]

why isn't this working

custom-join-message: "[%server_unique_joins%] +{USERNAME}"

[turbid tide]

update the javascript expansion.

/papi ecloud download javascript then you do /papi reload

[turbid tide]

what is the custom-join-message plugin? does it support PlaceholderAPI?

[vivid sparrow]

essentials has {UNIQUE} btw

[grim urchin]

Exactly the same error

[turbid tide]

can you do a /papi dump please? and send the link here?

[grim urchin]

https://paste.helpch.at/wegedusiye

[turbid tide]

can you go to plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions and delete this: Expansion-javascript.jar then restart the server, then do the download command again and reload after

[grim urchin]

Nothing has changed

[turbid tide]

can you restart server again and send a full startup log please?

[grim urchin]

https://pastebin.com/7R6uwuZW

[turbid tide]

@thorn thunder please help. idk what's going wrong

it can't find nashorn

but the download command should've downloaded latest version

[grim urchin]

Could it be because I have PAPI 2.10.9 and not 2.10.10?

[turbid tide]

maybe? not really sure

but you should update

[grim urchin]

Ok

[thorn thunder]

Could you provide the output of java -version ?

[grim urchin]

Java 8

[thorn thunder]

Is there any other exception in your log?

[grim urchin]

After installing PAPI 2.10.10:

https://pastebin.com/aaeSxEZ5

[thorn thunder]

Ah heres the issue java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/openjdk/nashorn/api/scripting/NashornScriptEngineFactory has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 59.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

[grim urchin]

As I understand it, you need a higher Java?

[regal flint]

i was been looking around and tried to find an placeholder that says what world an specific player is in

[thorn thunder]

Yea, but that seems to be a mistake. We'll fix that asap

[grim urchin]

Well thank you I will wait

[regal flint]

me too

[grim urchin]

%player_world%?

)

[regal flint]

did u google or guess

[grim urchin]

I've used it already

[turbid tide]

you know there's a wiki that lists hundreds of placeholders right?

[regal flint]

i looked so long

oh u used alr

well thx ill try it

[turbid tide]

github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/placeholders

[regal flint]

I WAS USING it alr

the page

[regal flint]

player_world how do i make it say what specifiy player, {playername}_world?

im new to all dis

[turbid tide]

you use the parseother expansion

[regal flint]

hm

ok

[turbid tide]

%parseother_{playername}_{player_world}%

[grim urchin]

Installing the JS 1.6.0 add-on solved the problem, I will work like this for now

[regal flint]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/840627211647057970/872572385184858162/unknown.png
The placeholders turn to PNF after updating

[errant iron]

Which placeholders are those

[regal flint]

OtherPlayer

[turbid tide]

it means it can't find the player you're trying to parse the placeholder for

[regal flint]

oh i think i am online (-?

[turbid tide]

well are you parsing them for yourself? are you not using parseother? also why use otherplayer when you are online? just use the Player expansion instead

[regal flint]

oh

ok

[karmic marsh]

Could somebody give me an example of how to use precision with the Math expansion for papi please. I've tried several ways to enable precision in my placeholder and it fails. Here is the example on the github that I'm following for reference. %math_[precision]:[rounding]_<expression>%

[errant iron]

%math_0_1+1%

[karmic marsh]

Oh ok I was overthinking lol, thank you.

[regal flint]

since the placeholders are the vanishing thing imma ask here
why do my DeluxeMenus Item Lore Placeholder ParseHolder(aaa) go away after a second

it doesnt give any errors,
but i think you could make the errors better like if a line in a text was bad should say theres da bad and not throwing some random bly*d
i also tried removing da dot
only using 1 lore
idk

before:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/833382626227781642/872601786081476748/unknown.png
after:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/833382626227781642/872601549480800326/unknown.png

errors come and go
lol
looks like im burger king for errors

[fickle tide]

Is it possible if someone can help me a bit as i am struggling
I would like to create a custom "currency" either directly inside placeholder API with javascript or to use some items with custom name and lore (Like let's say cookies)
I would like to create a small "shop" or menu that would use those coins or cookies like 1 5 25 or 100 and it will take that from the user if it has and i would like to add those coins to virtual budget/balance

So in conclusion i would like to replicate a system on popular server where they receive a timed hype points where they can use it and vote for some options, i can do something similar where it will use those coins but i can't manage to create a system where those will be stored under x player (can i use like balance for either armor stand or unknown player with some id)

Thanks for anyone who can help me out with this 🙂

[mint fable]

I feel it would be easier and less resource intensive to make a plugin

and more reliable with the data storage

because, while you can store data with javascript, it's not really supposed to be done how you want it

because you usually want to retrieve all data when server starts, cache it, save it when server stops

[fickle tide]

I know but that would require more brain from my end xD
And that is at least for now on short term as i just started learning java until i learn the whole database, storage and everything i would probably either won't need the plugin or someone will beat me to it

xD

[mint fable]

otherwise you'd be reading/writing everytime you called the placeholder basically

You could however, try using player meta via deluxemenus

which comes with a placeholder too

https://wiki.helpch.at/clips-plugins/deluxemenus/options-and-configurations#placeholders
https://wiki.helpch.at/clips-plugins/deluxemenus/options-and-configurations#actions-types

and remember you can execute the deluexemenus actions from anywhere you can put a command

/dm execute <action>

[outer plinth]

on minehut this https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/backpack-store-any-item-great-for-survival-servers.17192/ pluggin doesnt work if i edit it

anyone know how to help

[muted quail]

Hello, how would I go about making a request regarding the multiverse expansion?

I realise I need to bug the MV guys about that one

[last basalt]

hey I can't register why

[last basalt]

hey i want to join the web placeholder-api but i can't why

[ebon willow]

Anyone know the placeholder for the total numbers of players who has joined the server?

[winged heron]

In the PAPI "Server" module there is this: "%server_unique_joins%"
I would guess that is what you want.

[ebon willow]

That is indeed what I've been looking for. Thanks so much!

[dusky lark]

How do i list players out in tablist?

%playerlist_online,normal,yes,1%

%playerlist_online,normal,yes,2%

It returns with "Offline"

[dusky lark]

help!

[junior musk]

if you want to get a specific player, you have to start with 0, if you want the entire list, replace the number with list

[junior musk]

register is disabled on the ecloud, if you want to create an account, you need to ask funnycube to add you

[dusky lark]

Hi Im trying to make a list of player online in tab

41: refresh: 4 text: '%playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,0%' 42: refresh: 4 text: '%playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,1%' 43: refresh: 4 text: '%playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,2%' 44: refresh: 4 text: '%playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,3%'

list will list all the players in just 1 tab

it works. But if the other players not found it will return as "Offline"

How do I fix this

[turbid tide]

you can't really fix that

that's how its meant to work.

what do you want it to return if there is no player?

[dusky lark]

""

empty

can i chg from "Offline" to ""

[dusky lark]

can the expansion of playerlist edited?

[turbid tide]

it is open source. so yes if you know how to you can. but you could also use another expansion for this:

%changeoutput_contains,ignorecase_{playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,3}_offline__{playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,3}%

try this one

and please don't modify anything in it.

[dusky lark]

I will give it a try

Thanks

[dusky lark]

doesn't work.
Am I doing this right?

44: refresh: 4 text: '%changeoutput_contains,ignorecase_{playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,3}_offline__{playerlist_online,normal,yes,list,3}%'

Doesn't recognize the pllaceholdeer

Oh it works! But I have a problem. It now shows my name 6 times in the tablist

[turbid tide]

and it didn't do this before? also you did switch the 3 for every single item in the list right?

[dusky lark]

Ok works now. I just replaced list with numbers

Thanks @turbid tide

[turbid tide]

👍 no problem

[dusk crane]

https://paste.helpch.at/koyabekala.sql

Why does this error happen?

[hard basalt]

i believe u running unsupported java version, the new javascript expansion now run on java 11 at least

though i suggest java 16 if possible\

[dusk crane]

My server is 1.8, when Java 11 or 16 is used, the server does not turn on

[hard basalt]

sadly u have to role back ur javascript expansion version

find it on ecloud

as new version intended to make working with new java version

[dusk crane]

I already managed to install javascript

[hard basalt]

is it work now ?

[smoky spoke]

hi does anyone know alot about changeoutput?

[last basalt]

ok, I get it

[silver minnow]

1.8 servers can run on java 16

[turbid tide]

How can i help?

[smoky spoke]

When i use the placeholder, it only gives the yes value

[turbid tide]

Can you show me what you're trying to do please?

[turbid tide]

@smoky spoke u might've missed my message ^

[smoky spoke]

sorry i took a shower

[turbid tide]

👍

[vivid sparrow]

No they cant

[silver minnow]

works for me 🤔

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[turbid tide]

well.. internet went down. I was saying that I thought it the same until glare told me it doesn't actually work.

[silver minnow]

wat

but-

i just did it-

20 minutes ago

unless they have some other server software

im using paper 1.8.8

and AdoptOpenJDK 16.0.1.9 hotspot

https://i.imgur.com/Bim32Xb.png and the huge error in the middle always happens, idk what it means but it doesn't affect the server, i can join the server and stuff

[meager nymph]

ooh I had the same issue along time ago, it's in the start.bat thingy

you have to add some weird code

[silver minnow]

oh 🤔

hm

[meager nymph]

look at #off-topic

[austere hawk]

Hi one question: How can I make the pinger expansion take the motd from a minigame plugin, and not the motd from server.properties?

[vivid sparrow]

you can't.

[austere hawk]

Ok, but isn't there a plugin that can do it?

[wintry ridge]

If there is a Placeholder that reads whether there are other players next to the player and outputs Yes or No

[turbid tide]

you can use the PlayerList expansion. It has a way to show how many players are near a player and you can give it the distance.

[wintry ridge]

Thanks, but i found ParseNear

[turbid tide]

ugh alr then.

[storm lantern]

How can you kill a player like /kill %player% but that doesnt work so how do I do it

[turbid tide]

Kill it feom where?

[storm lantern]

so I'm trying to do a command where it kills you when you touch water it all works fine for when I do like @p but I want to make it kill the player that touches it so basically how can I do a kill command for the player that executed it

so like how can I do a command block for when you step on it it kills the %player% without doing @p

[trim mist]

Pretty sure the only minecraft way to obtain the target player like that is @p.

[inner cedar]

How do I fully disable the baltop placeholder from running? I tried disabling it in the config, but it still works.

[errant iron]

In the Vault expansion?

[inner cedar]

Yeah

I only use Vault for the prefixes, don't use baltop on my server, but its causing a lot of memory usage and lag for me.

[errant iron]

I didn't even think it worked on the latest version of the Vault expansion

i'll whip up a quick version of the vault expansion that doesn't even have baltop code at all

[inner cedar]

Ok, thank you!

[errant iron]

Try that

Let me know if it works

[inner cedar]

Could you temporarily accept my friend request, so I can send you a link that I don't want shared publicly?

[errant iron]

What link?

[inner cedar]

Flare

[errant iron]

What's that?

[inner cedar]

Am I allowed to advertise a link to flare?

[errant iron]

uh, I don't know what it is

[inner cedar]

It's a way to profile lag issues, a better alternative to spark and timings.

I want to show you that the baltop task is still running

[errant iron]

On my new version?

[inner cedar]

Yes

[errant iron]

The code for the baltop task literally doesn't exist in that one

[inner cedar]

I did /papi reload, was that enough to disable it?

[errant iron]

Do a full server restart

[inner cedar]

Alright

[winged heron]

./papi reload makes all devs cry

[errant iron]

Well it's usually pretty good

[inner cedar]

lol

[errant iron]

but the weird tasks that the baltop thing does kinda sidestep papi reload

[inner cedar]

I noticed there were two Vault plugins, 'vault' and 'Vault', so they are both disabled, and reloaded the plugin. Everything works like before and the lag issue from baltop tasks is gone now.

Thank you very much

[errant iron]

nice

[turbid tide]

what's that?

[smoky spoke]

sorry i forgot to respond.
%changeoutput_=_{Special70}_{player_health}_6_yes_no%

[turbid tide]

ugh. what's the Special70 for?

[smoky spoke]

i believe this placeholder should say yes if i have 6 hp right? when i parsed this with full hp, it gave me a value of yes

[turbid tide]

1 sec. that placeholder is not right

%changeoutput_<options>_<input>_<matcher>_<output-if-matched>_<output-if-not-matched>% This is the model.

    equals - match the input exactly
    ignorecase - match the input while ignoring cases
    ignorecolor - match the input while ignoring colour codes
    contains - check if the match contains input
    >= - check if the input is larger than or equal to the matcher
    > - check if the input is larger than the matcher
    <= - check if the input is less than or equal to the matcher
    < - check if the input is less than the matcher
``` These are the options. no `=`. and no name required. That placeholder is supposed to look like this: `%changeoutput_equals_{player_health}_6_yes_no%` @smoky spoke

[smoky spoke]

oh

ty

i thought i had to fill out the player name field

[winged heron]

I thought for some reason he said /plugman reload

[smoky spoke]

my memory was prob mixed up with the otherplayer placeholder

[winged heron]

Just so you get the clarification too Star and don't think I'm an idiot roasting your guys' placeholder plugin lol. My mind interpreted his command as plugman not papi

[turbid tide]

yeah. I assume the parseother placeholder. all good. and you're welcome.

[errant iron]

lol plugman

[turbid tide]

lmao. I feel that.

[errant iron]

what a hot meme

[weak osprey]

hey question with xconomy

papi trow errors

https://bin.byreqz.de/?c87f9d42be230722#DuPVrPeyKhYV2E2onAu4VTr5dJQpRyLnzQb77aWxgCeA

any idea why?

i remember it also caused problems with other economy plugin

[turbid tide]

you'll have to contact the developer of xconomy. seems like vault is trying to fetch the data from xconomy but the problem is that there is no data to fetch. something is null in there.

[weak osprey]

but i got a similiar issue also with a custom economy plugin too

randomy economy of players fucked up and when i stop server papi spammed a lot of error

(1.15-1.17)

[turbid tide]

well its not PAPI's fault that I Can guarantee. at least not this time. In this case, Vault is trying to get the economy to display it in a placeholder but it can't find any economy bcz it is null.

[weak osprey]

well dunno i just removed vault module and now work fine

[turbid tide]

that's why it says PAPI. bcz it tries to display it in a placeholder.

well yeah. error was like this economy plugin -> vault -> vault expansion

but the root problem is from the economy plugin

[weak osprey]

yeah i think too is that why i tried to switch economy plugin

[turbid tide]

why not use essentials's economy tho? If you have the essentials plugin installed, it has a good economy implemented. its pretty good

but yeah if you don't have and don't need essentials I understand. also try plugins like GemsEconomy.

[weak osprey]

i use already cmi but is a pain to import economy inside it

since they use this prefix

CMIGlobal%%0.0

on field

i noticed removin papi vault

cpu usage went from 500%-600% to 17%

was something bad with it/economy

lol

[turbid tide]

yeah. vault leaderboards are very bad. they are currently being rewritten and moved directly in the essentials expansion.

[weak osprey]

i was using vault placeholder on featherboard (papi)

but is fun to see server usage going 400-600 with 0 players

and timings never show that

i am so happy that i fixed it

so it was economy or placeholderapi fault?

[turbid tide]

its the vault expansion's fault. not really economy or papi

[weak osprey]

oh

it was years that i got that issue only in skyblock lol

never figured until today

[wheat gulch]

how do i only show first letter of my placeholder

[turbid tide]

can you explain a bit more?

[wheat gulch]

so I use a luckperms_suffix placeholder whose values are [Newbie, Rookie ...], I want to show only the N R and so on

[turbid tide]

ugh. then you'll have to use the Javascript expansion.

you do need a bit of javascript knowledge but shouldn't be much

[turbid tide]

here's the wiki and all that for the expansion ^^

[wheat gulch]

so how do i use it? %javascript_server.charAt(0)% this isnt working

[turbid tide]

well. the code doesn't go in there. there should be a file generated for each javascript placeholder in which you will place the code.

[wheat gulch]

where is the file generated

[wheat gulch]

i installed jsexpansion and gave myself placeholderapi.js.admin permission but i cannot use the jsreload command

[wheat gulch]

oh sorry, i didnt know that counted as ping

[turbid tide]

yeah. you can disable then to the right when you try to reply. it has an ON/OFF button.

gimme 1 minute pls. will look into it

btw @wheat gulch if you really can't get it to work and I don't find a solution just use /papi reload

but will look into it

see if I can find anything first

[wheat gulch]

i did /papi reload, it didnt work so I reloaded the plugin using superutils and it crashed the server, so I did a complete server restart 🥲

[wooden timber]

Has anyone gotten this error? 😬 https://paste.helpch.at/utowigugob.shell

[turbid tide]

yeah. just update your server expansion. /papi ecloud download server then /papi reload

[wooden timber]

Already tried that 😦

[turbid tide]

then go to plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions adn delete the Server expansion from there, do a full server restart. No reload or anything like that, and then download the expansion again

[wheat gulch]

okay

[turbid tide]

that's for Merawrr btw.

I can't seem to find anything about this permission

@wheat gulch can you do /papi reload and show me the errors that happen when you do it?

[wooden timber]

That worked! It appears that there were two versions of server downloaded 😕 😭

Thank you 🙂

[turbid tide]

no problem. 👍

[wheat gulch]

i cannot send an image here

[turbid tide]

^^^

[wheat gulch]

https://imgur.com/kUg1oXO

[turbid tide]

in the console I mean. do you get any errors/messages?

[wheat gulch]

no

https://imgur.com/o9VEexY

it is even loading the script

[turbid tide]

so how did it crash last time?

if it works I think you'll have to stick with /papi reload over /jsreload unless you want to OP yourself. I don't really know what's wrong with the permission rn.

[wheat gulch]

it crashed because i reloaded the plugin with superutils (its like plugman)

[turbid tide]

oh please don't.

that's really bad

just restart the server if you want to reload or if the plugin offers a reload command use that

but don't do /reload or plugman or anytihng like that

@thorn thunder can you help us here btw? It seems like the admin permission for /jsexp relaoad doesn't work. can't really take more time to look at it right now

[wheat gulch]

I got it to work and the helloWorld example is working. the command shows red but it works

[turbid tide]

oh yeah. those commands are not actually registered for tab completion.

[vivid swift]

is there a way to limit papi for certain plugin only because even if i do unregister as soon i do restart my server everything is back 😦

[turbid tide]

I don't really understand what you need. can you explain a bit more? what are you trying to accomplish?

[vivid swift]

exemple i have a plugin orereplacer i dont whant it to handshake with papi and in orereplcer they dont have a config that stop theyre placeholder to load i want to load only plugin that i use if i do unregister orereplacer its not in /papi list anymore and when i do restart the server its back in the list . so i wanted to know if its possible to stop some plugin to link with papi

sry for my bad english

[turbid tide]

no. the plugin would have to provide an option for that. its not possible from PAPI to do it.

I Don't see why you would unregister it either. just let it exist

does it affect something or why would you want to unregister it?

[vivid swift]

because since i have install papi my server lose alots of tps when people login and i dont whant to remove papi because its insane 😄

[turbid tide]

hmm. yaeh. you would either have to edit the code of the plugin if its Open Source, or at least ask the developer to add an option in config for it to hook into papi or not. or something like that.

[vivid swift]

ill find an alternatif 😄

[turbid tide]

@summer nexus [20:15:28 INFO]: BlitzGamer_88 issued server command: /papi parse BlitzGamer_88 %checkitem_remove_mat:stone,amt:3% [20:15:28 INFO]: 0 what's with the output? can you remove that by any chance?

that's the console output while I do the command from ingame

[sharp jay]

Blitz gamer

[turbid tide]

only happens when I remove items @mint fable. so I assume its a debug message you forgot. please do remove when you get some time

[mint fable]

?

[turbid tide]

ugh. just use %vault_group% instead of prefix. bcz that takes in the group actual name which usually doesn't contain colors and all that other crazy shit

[turbid tide]

yes sir? how can I help

[turbid tide]

there's some random number outputed when I Parse checkitem remove. dk what it means or what it is

[sharp jay]

sir hypixel

[turbid tide]

alr. 1 sec. will open MC

[summer nexus]

I take you pinged the wrong cj?

[turbid tide]

invite only pls. k

oh lmao

didn't even notice

sorry

wait. why make prefixes with js??? this seems like a waste.

just use luckperm's prefixes and stuff

well then at least use LuckPerms's placeholders instead of vault

[mint fable]

@turbid tide #ecloud-updates

[turbid tide]

thank you sir

[vivid swift]

blitz the problem was orereplace thanks agaiin for ur good work 😄

[turbid tide]

ok so let me get this straight. you want this javascript to return a prefix if the primary group is X for that player?

have you tried /papi parse me %vault_group% to see what it actually returns? @vast anchor

[turbid tide]

wait but why does your group name contain a color? it really shouldn't

and you need to replace the ampersand symbol with a section symbol to check for colors because in javascript they are already parsed

[austere inlet]

Can anyone tell me what all placeholders are available from chatreactions?

Is there any place holder for amout of scrambles resolved by a perticular player?

[turbid tide]

there is a full list of existent placeholders for that plugin on the wiki: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/placeholders#chatreaction

[turbid tide]

there is. and its called %chatreaction_wins%

[austere inlet]

thank you just what i needed

[turbid tide]

👍 no problem

[sour wadi]

Chance there is a .upper() thing for placeholders?

[unique leaf]

https://paste.helpch.at/hogojadave Is there a way to fix this error?

[thorn thunder]

Oh?

[sharp jay]

Lmao

[austere hawk]

Hi, placeholder spam my console and idk fix it

.... [07:54:49 WARN]: at me.clip.placeholderapi.PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(PlaceholderAPI.java:70)
.... [07:54:49 WARN]: at me.clip.placeholderapi.PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(PlaceholderAPI.java:98)

[turbid tide]

its fine. he fixed it somehow. probably gave the wrong permission

Just don't use switch and instead use if and indexOf. like this:

var rank = "%vault_group%"

function getprefix() {
  if (rank.indexOf("Administrator") != -1) return "&9[&lAdmin&9] ";
  else if (rank.indexOf("SomeOtherRank") != -1) return "&eSomeOtherRank";
  else return "&cНяма";
}
getprefix()```

[turbid tide]

that's the only thing it says? nothing else?

[turbid tide]

.upper()? what would that do. can you explain a bit?

[turbid tide]

the problem is one of your ParseOther expansion. you are using it wrong

[velvet tinsel]

papi parse %player_name% %javascript_rewards-delay_Mvp+_start%

and I get

You must supply a target, and a message: /papi parse {target} {message}

why is that?

[turbid tide]

well... you see. commands don't usually parse placeholders

just use me

instead

or where are you using it? are you using it in another plugin like deluxemenus?

[velvet tinsel]

yes in deluxemenus

[turbid tide]

ah

well don't use all that

just use [console] %javascript_rewards-delay_Mvp+_start%

[velvet tinsel]

but how will it know to parse it for the player

im trying to make a rewards system with a cooldown

[turbid tide]

ugh

the player is the viewer it already parses other placeholders. anyway if you really want to use that command just download the player expansion

/papi ecloud download player then /papi reload

but I'm telling you, my option will work too

[velvet tinsel]

so

if I just add

[console] %javascript_rewards-delay_Mvp+_start%

without any player name

it will add the delay just for me?

[turbid tide]

yeah

because deluxemenus parses the placeholder

before it even does the action

in a new update I've added a [placeholder] action just for this but its not yet out. need for Glare to check and merge my pull request first

[velvet tinsel]

hard to believe

but it worked

you are a genius

ok

now how do i make it to update items

so it says 23h59m42s

if i reopen it will update

how do i make it to autoupdate without closing and reopening

[turbid tide]

well I Don't know why it would be hard to believe? but just use update_interval: 1 in the menu options (so basically where your menu title, size and all other stuff is) and then add option update: true in the item options so where the material, display_name etc. is

[unique leaf]

Is there a way to parse a placeholder as another player then send the output to a different player?

[hidden pumice]

hello short question how do i enter 3 permissions in the query at the same time

[turbid tide]

what query exactly?

[hidden pumice]

type: permission
expression: ''

[turbid tide]

ah so deluxemenus

gimme couple minutes please.

[hidden pumice]

deutsch ?

[turbid tide]

do you want it to check for all 3 of them? or 1 of the 3

[hidden pumice]

all 3

[turbid tide]

  first:
    type: has permission:
    permission: PERM.1
  second:
    type: has permission
    permission: PERM.2
  third:
    type: has permission
    permission: PERM.3``` something like this

will work

[hidden pumice]

how can i prevent that he can buy a position several times in the menu.
the player should only be able to buy each position once

[turbid tide]

when they buy, you give them a permission

and then only allow them to buy if they don't have it

[hidden pumice]

how do i write that?

[turbid tide]

something like this

  left_click_commands:
  - '[console]lp user %player_name% permission set SOME.PERMISSION'
  left_click_requirement:
    requirements:
      noperm:
        type: '!has permission'
        permission: 'SOME.PERMISSION'```

[hidden pumice]

I can have 2 requirements on the right left hand because at the same time I check the money whether he has that much

[turbid tide]

yeah. you can have as many requirements per each click type as you want

like I Showed you with the 3 permissions

they can be any type and how many you want

[hidden pumice]

right_click_requirement:
requirements:
example_3:
type: has money
amount: 5000
deny_commands:
- "[message] &cDu hast nicht genügend Geld."
- "[close]"
left_click_requirement:
requirements:
example_3:
type: has money
amount: 5000
deny_commands:
- "[message] &cDu hast nicht genügend Geld."
- "[close]"

these are my current requirements how do I write them down now?
can you please write them down for me as an example

[unique leaf]

lets say I have the placeholder %ajpk_current% and I want it to parse that placeholder for "Robot" and I want to send the output to "Robot2" What would the parseother parse command be? When I tried I got a console error.

[turbid tide]

how do you write down what? the thing I Just showed you?

[turbid tide]

/papi parse Robot2 %parseother_{Robot}_{ajpk_current}%

@hidden pumice here you go. https://hastebin.com/ilequnonop.less

something like this should work ^^6

I only did it for left click tho.

but its the exact same for right click

I also modified the deny_commands spacing a bit so its better now

[plush finch]

Is there a placeholder to show how many people are online that are in a specific Minecraft/scoreboard team?

I use because I hve to use 2 different LPerms Groups for 1 placeholder

[tired cloud]

What is the placeholder to add a date

[placid imp]

anyone know a PAPI Permission placeholder that i can use in the holograms that says if a player has a certin permission it says true or false i tried the player extension but it doesnt work with Holograms and i do have Hext

if u do please tag me

[wide bridge]

Failed To Find An Expension Named: Player
How can I solve problem?

[turbid tide]

have you tested the placeholder with the parse command? /papi parse me %player_has_permission_PERM.NODE% ?

[turbid tide]

@wide bridge read this please ^^

[turbid tide]

%server_time_dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm% You can learn more about it here: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders#server

[tired cloud]

i realized how to do it

[turbid tide]

you could probably use the PlayerList expansion + the team expansion.

[placid imp]

it works but it doesnt update on the hologram

[turbid tide]

so on the hologram it just show the placeholder itself?

[wide bridge]

How Do I Know If the Host Allows Connections to PlaceholderAPI eCloud?

[turbid tide]

or what exactly is happening?

[placid imp]

yes

[turbid tide]

you'll have to ask them I guess

[turbid tide]

and you're 100% sure you have Holographic EXtension and PRotocolLIb installed?

[wide bridge]

To who?

[placid imp]

Yes

[turbid tide]

the host. ask the host if they block any connections or anything like that

[turbid tide]

then please send a startup log

[plush finch]

Thanks i'll try it

[sly needle]

Someone know which placeholders should i use for ezblocks top player and top broken blocks ?

[turbid tide]

you will need to use a plugin like ajLeaderboards or LeaderHeads if you want to create leaderboards

[sly needle]

ok which one do you suggest ?

[true nest]

any idea how i could add placeholders by itself to the plugin?? without using ecloud as one of the plugins im using got removed :/

[frigid sun]

I need some help with a custom expansion.

I tried to follow the wiki (https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion) but it don't work as expected.
At first i create a expansion class: https://paste.md-5.net/qevuwuqoku.java
In the onEnable method of my plugin i register the expansion: https://paste.md-5.net/ifehejihos.coffeescript
Console: https://paste.md-5.net/junetapapi.md
I also added papi as dependency in the plugin.yml

What could wrong with my code ?
It's quite strange it say's Successfully registered expansion: BungeeBridgeS and two lines later No expansions were registered!
Also the method onRequest will not be called.

[turbid tide]

The other message only shows external expansions I think. It won't list the internal ones like yours

Also you should make your identifier lowercase

Also u sure you called it correctly? /papi parse me %BungeeBridgeS_factionsuuid_player_power%?

[frigid sun]

What do you mean with "other message" ?
Isn't this documentation (https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion#with-a-plugin-internal-class) for a self created plugin ?

Wait, let me test it

[turbid tide]

The message that says 0 expansions registered

[frigid sun]

oh okay 😄

[turbid tide]

Only lists the externals one

You can ignore it saying 0

[frigid sun]

/papi parse me %BungeeBridgeS_factionsuuid_player_power% works..
Strange ;o

[turbid tide]

Well not strange

Its case insensitive

If you made your identifier BungeeBridgeS then that's what you use

[frigid sun]

oh okay, let me try something

[turbid tide]

Also I meant to say case sensitive. Not the other way around

[frigid sun]

It's working, thank you ! 🙂

[turbid tide]

Yw 👍

[last basalt]

why can't I use the command "/papi eclod" and what's worse, I can't download anything like Player, vault, server and everything can't be downloaded I tried to download the vault on the eclod web but it doesn't work, why?

please give my heart

[errant iron]

it's /papi ecloud

And the downloads work for me

[smoky spoke]

im asking for a rework of the %player_pitch% placeholder or is it not possible?
the reason why is that when im facing down, it's giving a positive value instead of a negative value

[lilac oxide]

Use a javascript placeholder to invert it if you'd like

[smoky spoke]

ok

[tidal thunder]

i forgot how placeholderapi worked, i needed to put something like <fastest> <fast> <medium> <slow> <slowest> and then the placeholder in right?

[austere hawk]

I don't think so? I think you're thinking of HolographicDisplays and the rate in which they refresh placeholders.

[turbid tide]

you have to just update the expansion. it will work after that

you're welcome 👍

[shut bluff]

Hello, for some reason Mcmmo placeholder dont work for me.
With prase the output is just the placeholder
i did donwload the expansion
and restarted the server.
what else i can do ?

[turbid tide]

can you send a startup log please?

[shut bluff]

but it sucessfully registred mcmmo

more than once ^^ thats me testing 😄

[warm plover]

Hey there! Where is %server_name% edited?

[turbid tide]

plugins/PlaceholderAPI/config.yml I believe

[warm plover]

Perfect! Tysm!

[turbid tide]

can you also do a /papi dump and send the generated link @shut bluff ?

[shut bluff]

sry

[turbid tide]

no worries. what placeholder were you testing on?

[shut bluff]

for example: %mcmmo_level_swords%

but a few of them, no placeholder is working from mcmmo

others from other plugins do work fine

[turbid tide]

do you see anything in console when you try /papi parse me %mcmmo_level_swords% ?

[shut bluff]

[21:12:38 INFO]: Parthurax issued server command: /papi parse me %mcmmo_level_swords%

no :/ strange issue

[turbid tide]

also what mcmmo plugin are you using? can you link me the spigot page please?

[shut bluff]

its the "new" one https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/official-mcmmo-original-author-returns.64348/

[turbid tide]

so. I think the problem is that

This expansion gives users placeholders for both mcMMO Classic (1.x) and mcMMO Overhaul (2.x).

[gloomy verge]

anyone using mysql extension for papi help ? query: SELECT x FROM y WHERE name = '{%mysql_xx%}' can i use mysql parsed parameter inside a another query to achive a different information from mysql table ?

[shut bluff]

it should be fine, hmm i will try request support on mcmmo again. thank you very much for your help !

[turbid tide]

alr. no problem 👍

[turbid tide]

as of now I don't think the expansion supports bracket placeholders. and even if it did, you would use them as {mysql_xx} not {%mysql_xx%}.

if they do not work like that you can always request the developer to add support on the expansion's github

https://github.com/SuperRonanCraft/Expansion-MySQL/issues

open a new issue asking for BracketPlaceholder support.

[gloomy verge]

thanks for response, may i ask a question ?

[turbid tide]

sure xD

[gloomy verge]

is it possible to parse placeholders from one of the bungeecord connected servers from another one with any plugin or extension other than just parsing with mysql

[turbid tide]

there is an API that allows that but you will need a plugin to implement the api. https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/unmaintained-bungeeplaceholderintegration.79900/

[slate pollen]

If the plugin "Deluxetags"doesn't work, and only shows placeholder and nothing else is that bc i don't have placeholderapi installed?

@ me if you answer

okay fixed

it was indeed the problem

[austere hawk]

ayo so when i use this plugin in my own plugin

i have some placeholders such as %player_name%

the join message only produces my name and no one elses

so if someone joins my server it says my name instead of theirs?

[mental bison]

i'm having this placeholderapi from luckperms error while i'm on the latest version of the expansion https://paste.lucko.me/PcYJEYXyiM

[hard basalt]

do u have latest luckperm ?, this issue have been talked on lp support channel before about miss-match expansion version and luckperm version . Current latest lp is .55. If u unsure what expansion version to get pls contact luckperm support team

[fast egret]

can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong here? this math placeholder
%math_0:_MIN({math_0:_{checkitem_amount_mat:{cp-data-crucible.mata}}/({cp-data-crucible.amt.A}*{cp-data-crucible.qnt})},{math_0:_{checkitem_amount_mat:{cp-data-crucible.matb}}/({cp-data-crucible.amt.B}*{cp-data-crucible.qnt})})% i am using keep refusing to work and is always giving out the same error that is
[09:56:38 WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] [Math] Cause: '{checkitem_amount_mat:lapis_lazuli ' is not a valid Math-Expression. and i am pretty sure that i am not missing any parenthesises like the error stated

in this situation:

• cp-data-crucible.matb is replaced with gold_ingot
• cp-data-crucible.amt.A is replaced with 80

• cp-data-crucible.qnt is replaced with 1

id appreciate it very much if anyone can help me with this problem as im struggling to understand what i did wrong

@fast egret I don’t think you can use command panels data inside placeholders like that

At least I tried it before and it didn’t work so

[fast egret]

nah its possible, i have plenty of other placeholders with cp placeholders inside them and they worked well, im not sure whats wrong with this one

[hard basalt]

i suggest u make it into a javascript placeholder, it will work better

[dark ibex]

Papi parses math placeholder and it works, but it does not work in holograms. What to do?

[hard basalt]

u need to have hologram extension

just download from spigot

[dark ibex]

You mean this: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/holographicextension.18461/ ?

[hard basalt]

yes

[hard basalt]

if u use server from 1.16.5 and higher use for hex support https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/holographic-placeholders.64535/

[dark ibex]

I've downloaded and loaded it but the math expressions still do not work

[austere hawk]

my bungee placeholders broke i have the plugin update and when i donwload bungee and try to reload it i have error in console
https://pastebin.com/jwy9LA4M

[fast egret]

i dont know any javascript and dont have the time to learn it, i guess its a dead end for me ;-;

[hard basalt]

i think i can help u

[fast egret]

id appreciate it a lot lot if u can

[hard basalt]

so what u want to achieve ?

[fast egret]

i just need the placeholder to work

[turbid tide]

what you're doing wrong. is that you have. %placeholder_{inside_placeholder_{inside_placeholder}}%. And that's not possible

[hard basalt]

so can u break down the placeholder so maybe some of us can help ?

[fast egret]

here

i did explain the other placeholders i used in it

[fast egret]

this might as well be the case, its quite messy if im being honest lol

[turbid tide]

well. it is the cause. that's exactly what the error says. if you want to go with more advanced like that you need some javascript knowledge and use the javascript expansion.

[hard basalt]

i think i can help u write 1

[turbid tide]

you nee protocol lib as well.

[dark ibex]

I have it

[fast egret]

tysm in advance if u can spare ur time to get the thing going for me, i currently dont have much time to learn javascript as im occupied by other tasks atm

[turbid tide]

can you send a startup log then please?

[hard basalt]

first i need to know what placeholder u using beside checkitem

and the cp-data-crucible.qnt where is it come from so i can call it

[fast egret]

im using math and the cp ones r from a gui plugin called commandpanel

[hard basalt]

k

[dark ibex]

https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/f24c090479554891920fd6beaf92ef6b

[hard basalt]

@fast egret im not good at commandpanel, but is this item from player's inv or a menu slot ?

[fast egret]

its from a chest gui's item

[turbid tide]

ugh. according to that startup log I can't find neither HolographicPlaceholders or HolographicExtension

oh.

you do have some extension

but I've never heard of it

    
[13:52:06] [Server thread/ERROR]: Could not load 'plugins/HoloExtension-0.0.1 Alpha-all.jar' in folder 'plugins'
    
org.bukkit.plugin.UnknownDependencyException: Unknown/missing dependency plugins: [Vault]. Please download and install these plugins to run 'HoloExtension'.```

[dark ibex]

On my way

[hard basalt]

he dont have vault

.-.

[turbid tide]

I'm pretty sure he can read. xD that's why I pasted him the error and not told him what the problem is

[dark ibex]

Thanks Bltz

[hard basalt]

so u want to check item from chestGUI ?

[vivid sparrow]

install vault

[fast egret]

i use that placeholder as a lore part for an item in a slot, and to set a variable's value

i just need a quick recreation of the placeholder

[turbid tide]

I'm gonna ban you now. ok? thanks

[vivid sparrow]

try

[dark ibex]

I've installed Vault but the placeholders still donot work

[dark ibex]

Not in hologramdisplays nor in citizens

[turbid tide]

probably bcz you were meant to install HolographicExtension or something. you installed some HoloExte plugin I've never heard of

[vivid sparrow]

it took you a while to do the inspect

[dark ibex]

Baole told me it's for 1.16.5, which is my server on. The holographicextension does not support 1.16.5

[turbid tide]

it does. it support up to 1.16.5. It breaks in 1.17 tho.

and for 1.17 you should use HolographicPlaceholders

instead

[dark ibex]

Okay I try it then

[hard basalt]

i said use holographicPlaceholder if u on 1.16.5 or above

[dark ibex]

That's what I have used

Its jar is called differently - HoloExte

[hard basalt]

oh

odds

[dark ibex]

Now it goddamn works

Thanks

[turbid tide]

👍 no problem

[hard basalt]

now i still need to figure out what the other guy to to do. So far i understand that he want to calculate the item in a menu from chest command plugin, which is call via command pannel, which is also another GUI plugin .....

[fast egret]

nah its pretty simple, all i need is the math placeholder working, the cp placeholders r dealt with other things that ive made

its ok if u dont want to do it, ill return to it in the future and try to resolve it on my own

[hard basalt]

nah im already working on it, i just worry that i cant call the material

[fast egret]

oh ok 👍

[hard basalt]

almost done

@fast egret i just realize on the wiki page they don't mention the crucible.qnt and other things, is that the name u give them ?

[fast egret]

ye, i created those variables

[hard basalt]

k

[modern lynx]

is there any extension to save numeric statistics monthly?

[hard basalt]

so it should me %cp-data-crucible.qnt% and other things like that ?

@fast egret ok so here the thing, so what would u want the math to return cause currently here is what i break it down

known math
math_0:_MIN(
    {math_0:_
        {checkitem_amount_mat:{cp-data-crucible.mata}}/
            ({cp-data-crucible.amt.A}*{cp-data-crucible.qnt})
    }
    ,{math_0:_
        {checkitem_amount_mat:{cp-data-crucible.matb}}/
            ({cp-data-crucible.amt.B}*{cp-data-crucible.qnt})
    }
)

so u want to compare and return the name of the material or the amount of the smallest material ?

[fast egret]

the amount of the smallest material

[hard basalt]

k

so what if them equal ?

[fast egret]

if they were to be equal, i guess ill have it pick either one

[hard basalt]

well they both have same number but it would return 1

[fast egret]

i mean for example if both were to be 2, then it can go with either a or b, or just a or b for simplicity

[hard basalt]

done

@fast egret https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DYdcK818T6ie3yNeWt6CqNK97gPjVxNG/view?usp=sharing

or u can just copy it from paste bin if u want https://pastebin.com/TXBPw8Y1

[fast egret]

tysm for the immense help 👍

[hard basalt]

if it not work just nag me and i will make version 0.2 .-.

[fast egret]

👍

[hard basalt]

imagine it straight up not working ;-;

[hard basalt]

is it working ?

[fast egret]

i was a bit distracted by a few other things, ill check it tmr as i dont have access to the server rn, it looks pretty fine imo so im pretty sure it will work

if there is any problem, ill ping u 👍

[modern lynx]

is there any extension to save numeric statistics monthly?

[hard basalt]

u can save it using javascript

[modern lynx]

I dunno JavaScript but OK

thanks

[shut lion]

I updated from 1.16.4 to 1.16.5 and my placeholders broke

https://imgur.com/nuCO2Nh

but only some of them broke

what would cause only some of them not to work

im using v2.10.10

disregard

[shut lion]

ok WTF

I do /placeholderapi ecloud update all

and the issue gets fixed but it refuses to save past a restart

[smoky hatch]

How do I use or in a placeholder

Like if the placeholder is blank it says something else

[shut lion]

conditions

talking like json?

[smoky hatch]

What?

[shut lion]

json is the popdown menu when you hover over chat

[smoky hatch]

No

I mean if the placeholder is blank it says something else

[shut lion]

I don't know

butttt....

[turbid tide]

you can use the javascript expansion. or even the changeoutput one for this case

[smoky hatch]

How do I do the change output

@turbid tide

[turbid tide]

I mean. you can read the wiki. it explains it there: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/placeholders#changeoutput

[turbid grove]

How do i use placeholder api without maven or Gradle ?

[warm topaz]

u would import the plugin jar

altho why would u not want to use maven or gradle

[turbid grove]

Because i am a noob developer

[turbid tide]

fair enoug

h

[warm topaz]

setting up a build tool is very easy

[turbid grove]

I will install maven in the future

[warm topaz]

everything is basically laid out for u, and ur just missing out on great features that will hinder ur experience

[silver minnow]

gradle > maven

[turbid grove]

i amma use maven (but not rn)

[turbid tide]

lmao

[silver minnow]

[turbid grove]

thanks 🙂

[silver minnow]

[warm topaz]

either one is much better than importing jars

[turbid grove]

So i am getting a error but i dont know what i need to do to fix it:

Code: https://paste.helpch.at/efixonalit.java
Error: https://gyazo.com/9225d0fb559b218636fc0569c56f596d

[turbid tide]

it tells you that you don't have placeholderapi installed

[turbid grove]

But i added the jar

[turbid tide]

also you should probably know that %tps% is not a PlaceholderAPI placeholder

[turbid grove]

cant i use ecloud downloaded placeholders?

[turbid tide]

you can

but %tps% is not one of them

[turbid grove]

%tps% is from server

[turbid tide]

every PAPI placeholder contains at least a _

no

its %server_tps%

[turbid grove]

oh

Will that work?

[turbid tide]

its %identifier_ETC%

yeah

but anyways. As I was saying, you don't have placeholderAPI Installed on your server

[turbid grove]

Ohw wait

i switched servers and forgot to install placeholderapi 🥲

[turbid grove]

thank you 🙂

Now i get an error that he doesnt understand %

[turbid tide]

show error please

ty

[turbid grove]

error: https://paste.helpch.at/piwepubagu.cs

This is the code if it helps:

    public void onPlayerChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        String rank = PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(p, "%server_tps%");
        e.setFormat(rank);
    }```

Found the issue

and solved it 🙂

[austere hawk]

After updating from placeholderapi dev build to the latest spigot build

all placeholders broke on my server

going back to the dev build fixes it

https://paste.helpch.at/amekixanov

this is my dump

[turbid tide]

you will probably need to send a startup log from when you have the spigot release installed as well

[austere hawk]

I get this error

[austere hawk]

Is that all you need?

[turbid tide]

please. full startup log and use paste bins

thank you

[austere hawk]

https://mclo.gs/sjC8wMK

[turbid tide]

from that error it seems like one of the expansions (I assume townychat expansion) can't find the townychat plugin

can you send a /papi dump from when using PAPI 2.10.10

PLEASE?

please*

yeah. @austere hawk seems like you have the townychat expansion but no townychat plugin installed

that is probably 99% sure the problem

I Just realised your dump does actually use 2.10.10 xD

[stoic thorn]

hi

someone can help me?

i need use papi in minecraft version 1.7.10

what version that my use?

[errant iron]

I don't know if PAPI works with 1.7 my man

[sand birch]

Any idea why some expansions are removing themselves upon restart?

[stoic thorn]

oh no

what can i use to replace?

[sand birch]

https://paste.helpch.at/efijoxirut
This is right after installing luckperms, player, and vault extensions

[errant iron]

uh, upgrade to a version of minecraft that came out in the last 6 years possibly?

[errant iron]

did you do /papi reload?

[stoic thorn]

no kk

[sand birch]

yes. I did papi reload and registered each one

[errant iron]

send your startup log

?startuplog

[sand birch]

will do. /papi reload seems to unregister those plugins for some reason

?paste

[sand birch]

https://paste.helpch.at/cefucutiku.md

[stoic thorn]

0 possibilities for me to use the bookstore on 1.7.10? @errant iron

[errant iron]

I mean you can try

But 99.9% of servers don't run that version anymore

and it's hard to support, so we stopped supporting it

[stoic thorn]

oh no

[errant iron]

do you have FactionsUUID or Mcore Factions?

[sand birch]

FactionsUUID

[errant iron]

delete the Expansion-Factions.jar from your expansions folder

that's looking for Mcore Factions, and it throws an exception which stops the loading of placeholders for some reason

it seems to be an issue with just that expansion as far as I've seen

[sand birch]

thank you , that's a big headache over

[austere hawk]

yeah it does lol

[austere hawk]

oops sorry

I dont think thats the issue

I returned to the older dev build and it works fine, it just ignores the townychat expansion since I dont have the plugin.

[pure wraith]

how can I detect if a player is in a nether portal

[hard basalt]

idk u can make a script to get player standing in nether portal event

[austere hawk]

[AnimatedScoreboard] PlaceholderAPI caused an error while parsing line "&bÔùÅ &7Yetki S├╝resi&7: &f%luckperms_expiry_time_essentials.fly%" for Proomp
https://hastebin.com/ibafagahus.md
Help me please

[hard basalt]

format error ?

[turbid tide]

any chance your scoreboard plugin parses placeholders as null instead of Player? bcz that might be it. not sure tho

[lofty valve]

Hi, is rlir possible to get a placeholder value of specific player by given nickname?

Something like
%value_{placeholder_name}_<nickname>%

[junior musk]

you can use the ParseOther expansion

[turbid tide]

well. oyu can. but not by nickname. just by minecraft name

[lofty valve]

yeah i meant that

[turbid tide]

then yeah you can use the parseother expansin like tanguy said

[lofty valve]

Thanks

[austere hawk]

I don't understand you.

I try %luckperms_expiry_time_essentials.fly% in scoreboard but not working. Show empty.
(I download papi ecloud)

https://hastebin.com/ibafagahus.md

[turbid tide]

have you tried with papi parse? /papi parse me %luckperms_expiry_time_essentials.fly%

what does it return?

also check the console for errors when doing that command

[austere hawk]

I done.

https://hastebin.com/vutonacipi.properties

[turbid tide]

I think you will have to contact LuckPerms discord for this one.

[austere hawk]

I try DeluxeCommands and some errors...

Could not pass event PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent to DeluxeCommands v1.11.2
https://hastebin.com/akemaqiviv.csharp

[turbid tide]

with the same placeholder I assume?

[austere hawk]

yes

[molten bison]

how would i make one that is one placeholder but checks for multiple permissions but some are sorted higher than others? (javascript placeholder)

if player has npc.reza return blah blah blah.
if player has npc.nisan return somethin else. (this would be prioritised if the player has this one)

// create a variable and name it wantever you want like this
// and use the placeholder you want, i'm using this one
var haspermission = "%luckperms_check_permission_npc.nisan%";

// create a function with the name you want
function permission() {

// if the haspermission variable that we created before return yes (true boolean)
// the js placeholder will return what we set in the return down
if (haspermission === "yes") {
return "&aUnlocked!";
}

// if the haspermission varibale wasnt true it will return what we set down
else {
return "&cLocked!";
}
}

this is the only one i can find but it only checks for one permission. But i would need the same placeholder for multiple permission checks if u get what i mean

[turbid tide]

yeah. it seems to be like something's null when calling the placeholder. not sure what but probably the people in luckperms discord can help

[austere hawk]

Okay thanks

[turbid tide]

function hasPermissions() {
  if ("%luckperms_check_permission_npc.reza%" === "yes") {
    return "SOME MESSAGE!";
  }
  if ("%luckperms_check_permission_npc.nisan%" === "yes") {
    return "SOME OTHER MESSAGE!";
  }

  // this will be returned if the player has neither
  // npc.reza or npc.nisan permissions.
  return "SOMETHING ELSE!";
}

hasPermissions();``` @molten bison something like this is probably what you want

[molten bison]

thank you!

[molten bison]

but hmmm what if they have both=

which one will it prioritise?

because when i just tried it. It just returns the first one. And not the second one. Which is how it would be needed to be

[turbid tide]

it priorities the first in the list

just switch the checks

if you want the first one to be second

[hard basalt]

there is perm priority
