placeholder-api

[tight veldt]

And how could I do that then, can I download it with the same command?

[mint fable]

I think you can do /papi download javascript <version>

If not, you can always get it from here: https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/javascript/versions/

@tight veldt

[tight veldt]

Yes Yes 😄

thx

[mint fable]

you'll have to use it in a spot that supports it

So in the chat where you would normally put %rel_factionsuuid_relation_color%

you put this instead %changeoutput_equals_{rel_factionsuuid_relation_color}_<match>_<output-if-matched>_<output-if-not-matched>%

and replace the last 3 options with your needs of course

I just also remembered you can test it with the parserel command https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Commands#papi-parserel @austere hawk

can you send the placeholder again from config? discord messed it up a bit

[valid nacelle]

cj89898 help my plz :x

[warm topaz]

by any chance are ur relational placeholders returning an underscore @austere hawk

[mint fable]

the whole thing

because this is a broken one

it wasn't escaped in `` when you first sent it

[warm topaz]

what does that return exactly

both idk

[valid nacelle]

I have a question ? can't you create a ticket system? because it's a mess to navigate I still have my problem: /

[warm topaz]

ur trying to download the mcore factions expansion when u dont have the mcore factions plugin
delete that expansion

[mint fable]

I'm personally on a time constraint and can't delve into an issue rn

the other issue I was already a part of trying to help :L

makes sense

what does it return though

[warm topaz]

i just need to know if that placeholder individually has an _ in it because theres a bug in changeoutput

[mint fable]

because all options are separated by _ so it ends up bugging it

oh fuck I forgot it's just a color like &a @warm topaz

[warm topaz]

hm

maybe its because of the color doesnt equals an empty string

[mint fable]

what is the changeoutput placeholder you're using again @austere hawk ?

[warm topaz]

try adding ignorecolor to the options

so changeoutput_equals,ignorecolor_

[warm topaz]

yea im not sure whats happening here

[turbid tide]

I believe you have to specifically parse relational placeholders using the parseBracketRel? Unless I am misremembering

[warm topaz]

idk

[turbid tide]

nvm. there is no bracket rel method

but I believe that's why it breaks anyways. bcz of the relational placeholders.

[warm topaz]

do u really need the relational placeholders anyway @austere hawk? to me it sounds like u could just use the normal placeholders

[turbid tide]

I mean I might be completely wrong but doesn't this palceholder just check if rel is empty then it puts empty otherwise it puts the placeholder?

like why?

the whole thing sounds very useless

ah. default color

Ic

[warm plover]

Anyone have an idea about this?

[balmy vale]

is there a deluxe menu placeholder of the name of the player who clicks the menu item?

[warm plover]

%player_name% works

[prime totem]

do you have any idea if there is any solution so that when i have more than 1q money it still formats the money?

and doesnt get stuck?

[plain sequoia]

1q money?

[prime totem]

1 Q

[plain sequoia]

I don't know what u mean by 1Q

[prime totem]

like 1 million, 1 billion, 1 trillion and etc

[plain sequoia]

Ahh, what economy plugin do you use

[prime totem]

uhm vault

[plain sequoia]

%vault_eco_balance_formatted%

[prime totem]

it doesnt work

thats what im asking

is there a fix that when you reach 1000Q it still formats

when i gave myself more than 1000Q it stopped formatting

it didnt continued

[prime totem]

what i mean is that when i give myself x amount of money (big amount) it doesnt format, like QT, SX, SP and etc

[plain sequoia]

IK, but there is no other placeholder for you when u r using only Vault.

[prime totem]

what other thing i can do? change plugin?

[plain sequoia]

I guess the number is so big that it can't even format..

[prime totem]

i was looking in the messages, they said the format wasnt added or smth like that from what i understood

[plain sequoia]

I gave my self 10,000,000,000.00 and it's showing only 100M

So that's the maximum maybe

[limber ice]

javascript expansion don't seem to work on Paper 1.12.2 and PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-132

[fervent spire]

Doesn't seem to work how? What does it say?

[vivid sparrow]

You need java 15 or smth iirc

[fervent spire]

Pretty sure it's Java 16 for the latest javascript version

[turbid tide]

since version 2.0 you need java 15 or newer

man I love discord..

it disables the ping

but doesn't actually disable it

Papi or placeholderAPI ?

[fossil lark]

papi is a command for placeholderapi

some placeholders are not standalone

so if you want to use them you should type
/papi ecloud download name
then
/papi reload

[fringe root]

papi ecloud download Player

it should work fine now

[fossil lark]

i think this must be related to the plugin you use not placeholder api

[fringe root]

ok ok

Thank you very much PAPI for that

[plain sequoia]

Did you reloaded it?

[fossil lark]

it isnt a server

[plain sequoia]

Maven project.. If you reloaded...

[fossil lark]

in that case no i didnt

[plain sequoia]

https://i.imgur.com/iWRQuHa.png

[fossil lark]

where is it uh

[plain sequoia]

Do you have on your right side Maven?

[fossil lark]

gootcha

thanks

[plain sequoia]

np

[fossil lark]

also will it work in configuration files without adding something?
Im just newbie in placeholder's api api

[plain sequoia]

It won't work until you added into your code

You just added api which allows you to use placeholders in your plugin

[fossil lark]

shhh ok

[limber ice]

@fervent spirewhen I parse the placeholder i made it returns the place holder, only does this on one server

[fervent spire]

This with your own plugin or?

[limber ice]

will not work if I use parse command or dchat

[fervent spire]

How did you make the placeholder?

[limber ice]

it works on 6 other servers

but I can show you code if you need to see it

[fervent spire]

Do any errors come up?

[limber ice]

no errors, it is latest papi on paper 1.12.2

running java 8

trying working combo from my Spigot 1.12.2 again

https://paste.helpch.at/adohuwequn.sql with combo from working 1.12.2

[vivid sparrow]

download an older version of js expansion

[limber ice]

papi will not reload with version 1.4.1 with papi 2.10.0

[turbid tide]

use version 1.6.0

of javascript expansion

or whgat 1.4.1?

[warm plover]

Does Minecraft time update while people are offline?

Like the placeholders

[warm plover]

What time format is the join date in?

[turbid tide]

you mean the %player_first_join_date% ?

then it just uses the format from your config.yml

[spice tapir]

Sorry to keep bringing this up. Thanks again for the support thus far, this is as far as the issue has gotten resolved. Still PAPI isn't working with factions, nor is it liking featherboard (except when it comes to towny, elitemobs, and autorank)

[meager vault]

Hello,

Using placeholderAPI, is it possible to reduce ram usage of "vault.baltoptask" ?
It's pretty heavy in my flare report :
https://flare.airplane.gg/fe2a0c32

screen :
https://prnt.sc/1y2sxu4

[trim mist]

If you're using EssX, disable the baltop in Vault expansion and use the dev version of EssX. The baltop in Vault is being removed at some point in time for that exact reason.

[meager vault]

disable the baltop in Vault expansion
how do I disable it ?

[trim mist]

In the config

[meager vault]

ok yes I found it

Thanks for your help I'll now try to optimise also other things 🙂

[spice tapir]

Update: So I deleted all the expansions & reloaded papi that the folder is empty. Then downloaded expansions in game, and reloaded after every one.
This seems to have fixed it, very well
Then I downloaded AutoRank, still using the command, and it broke the rest

[limber ice]

@spice tapirwhat version of Autorank?

[limber ice]

latest Autorank has built it expansion, so make sure you don't have one in the expansion folder

[spice tapir]

essentials, iridium, localtime, luckperm, multiverse, mdvw, player, quests, server, servertime, vault <- all worked well
playertime also broke it. V 1.1.0 and 1.0.1 both broke > https://pastebin.com/vtHD0rfM
Townychat also broke it. V1.2 > https://pastebin.com/QHqHerBT
Autorank broke it V1.0.2 > https://pastebin.com/p697s2tc
Autorank V 1.01 V 1.0.0 didn't break the others, but also didn't register > https://pastebin.com/qiZY77eF

[limber ice]

@spice tapirno version of autorank not the expansion

[spice tapir]

4.5.1

that's the latest

[limber ice]

and no expansion is required, since it is in the autorank jar

[spice tapir]

.... hmmm I'll have to double check the placeholders, cause it is not doing that for me rn, but has before (as in less than 2 months ago)

[limber ice]

https://autorank.staartvin.com/other/placeholders

[spice tapir]

%autorank_active_paths%
%autorank_total_time_of_player%
ummmm... ya those are on the list

[limber ice]

some placeholders were changed

when clip made the expansion, and when Staartvin built it into his plugin

[spice tapir]

..... idk what's going. Because I just replaced the placeholders with the ones from the list. Maybe its the parenthesis?
- '&a┃ &7Name: &f%player_name%'
line4:
frames:
- '&a┃ &7Rank: &f%autorank_completed_paths%'
line3:
frames:
- '&a┃ &7Play Time: &f%autorank_total_time_of_player%'
line10:
frames:

nope tried {autorank_completed_paths} and {autorank_total_time_of_player} and still natta

[limber ice]

did you make sure there is no autorank expansion in the expansion folder

[spice tapir]

yep, manually deleted anything regarding autorank

[limber ice]

reboot server?

since two expansions can break papi

[spice tapir]

that may be it! Ik in the past when I do /papi reload it will break the autorank placeholders and requires a restart. Idk why.

I'll do a restart in a sec, any chance you can put me on the right path for factions placeholders? I'm using the latest version of UUID

[limber ice]

which faction plugin?

[spice tapir]

FactionsUUID https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/factionsuuid.1035/

I tried using their placeholders as shown here https://factions.support/placeholders/
But that just leaves empty brackets in my featherboard

[limber ice]

I have not set that one up, but I belive it should work the same as the ones I have done

[spice tapir]

Well when I try FactionsUpdated 2.14.0 papi expansion it breaks the others

[limber ice]

does featherboard still use mvdwplaceholder

[spice tapir]

AHA! Figured it out actually. So the placeholders they list on that wiki don't work, only on a seperate wiki I found.
Ironic you have been a tremendous help getting me to figure out which papi expansions were breaking the plugin! thank you so much!!!

[limber ice]

If the command itself isn't there and NO DOWNLOAD COMMAND instead is shown, then it means, that the plugin actually has the placeholders hard-coded into them and doesn't require a manual download of any expansion.

factionUUID has the expansion built into the plugin also

[spice tapir]

soooooo..... problem not entirely gone :/ did the restart, expectedly that fixed the autorank, but when I went to change worlds, it broke again

[fossil lark]

how can i register my plugins placeholders to the ecloud?

[fervent spire]

Just send a message to Barry and cube will help you with it

[fossil lark]

btw barry is a bot

[fervent spire]

btw I know

[fossil lark]

kk thanks

[deft crest]

I created a placeholder for the color of the tps
but I didn't put another one in it
there was just a color swap.
The one on the left works fine, the one on the right creates another one.
why?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/813014099113803799/905040222025314344/unknown.png

[deft crest]

help pls

[turbid tide]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/813014099113803799/905040222025314344/unknown.png

what did you create again? and why? There's already a colored tps placeholder I believe

why not use that one?

[fervent spire]

Yeah, there are placeholders for it,

%server_tps_1_colored%
%server_tps_5_colored%
%server_tps_15_colored%

[deft crest]

server:
tps_color:
high: '&a'
low: '&c'
medium: '&e'

[deft crest]

sorry

[deft crest]

this?

and is it possible to adjust it by numbers somehow?

var tps = "%server_tps_1%";
 
function PlaceholderCheck() {

   if (tps >= "19.0") {
       return "&a%server_tps_1%";
   }
   if (tps >= "17.0") {
       return "&e%server_tps_1%";
   }
   if (tps >= "15.0") {
       return "&c%server_tps_1%";
   }
   if (tps >= "10.0") {
       return "&4%server_tps_1%";
   }

}
PlaceholderCheck();

I made a placeholder like this

or do the tps colors need to be changed in the config plugin?

[turbid tide]

var tps = parseInt("%server_tps_1%");
 
function tpsColor() {
   if (tps >= 19) {
      return "&a" + tps;
   }
   else if (tps >= 17) {
      return "&e" + tps;
   }
   else if (tps >= 15) {
      return "&c" + tps;
   }
   else {
      return "&4" + tps;
   }
}
tpsColor();``` try this maybe.

[deft crest]

Now everything seems to be working fine, why is that?

[turbid tide]

you can't change the values at which color changes for the other placeholder

[deft crest]

I'm going to try it now, too.

[turbid tide]

hm. not sure.

btw

[turbid tide]

with this old one, it would break if you have less than 10 tps

so fixed that in mine

the rest is the same

[deft crest]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/813014099113803799/905066500526866473/unknown.png

I'm going to try yours now.

what you discounted also works♥

[abstract quiver]

Hi

I do have a placeholder with skript

referencing a variable which uses player's name in it's name

%skript_<Player's name>.deaths%

but I don't know if it's posible to reference the name of the player inside the placeholder

[fossil lark]

hey there is there a wiki for setting up plugins placeholders and uploading in ecloud?

[turbid tide]

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion

[full rain]

hey is there a placeholder for essentials/vault that shows how much money a player have?

[fossil lark]

you can checkout the wiki and sure it is

[fossil lark]

thanks

[abstract quiver]

Hi, I do have this place holder %skript_{player}.deaths%"

it is working

but I also want to use Math placeholder in it

%math_{skript_{player}.deaths}%"

like so

[turbid tide]

that won't work

[abstract quiver]

"_" is not appearing but I'm using them

[abstract quiver]

I know, but how can I do something similat that would work

[turbid tide]

you can't. it breaks because it finds {{}

so it doesn't know what to do

in that case

since {player} is also not a PAPI placeholder. but even if it was it wouldn't have worked

[abstract quiver]

Yeah I understand that

[full rain]

i have looked but there dont seem to be one for it

[abstract quiver]

but %skript_% is referencing a skript variable which includes in it's name the name of the player

so i need the player's name there

[turbid tide]

well if you want to add stuff up you could try using the javascript placeholder

expansion*

[abstract quiver]

how would it work?

[fossil lark]

hm https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders#vault check this

[turbid tide]

you'll have to read up on the javascript expansion @abstract quiver

you do need to have some javascript knowledge

[abstract quiver]

I will have to chek

[fossil lark]

%vault_eco_balance%

[fossil lark]

this is probably what you were searching for

[full rain]

but that for myself how do i make it for other players i want all people to see one players balance

[turbid tide]

/papi parse PlayerName %placeholder%

will parse placeholders for that player

[full rain]

Okay im making this on Holo plugin how can i make it show up on there?

nvm found out how to do with the ParseOther expansion

[warm plover]

Hi there I’m using a plug-in and it doesn’t seem to parse placeholders if no one is online. Is there a way to parse placeholders with no one online?

[orchid sedge]

Hey is there any reason as to why the expansion-quests is not working?

[cosmic shale]

please don’t tag random people, someone will help you eventually.

[turbid tide]

works just fine for me

what version of the expansion you got?

try getting the 2.1.0 version

what's the command you're using?

are you using it ingame?

I'm looking at the code itself and can't seem to find anything wrong with the code

not sure what they have to do with each other?

they're different commands

and they don't need to be fixed. I've checked it and it works. my assumption is that you maybe have a plugin messing up with it or something. idk

its exactly the same my friend

I guess not. it makes the checks it does for the other players for this one as well.

which are to check if the player has played before and if the player has a name

[turbid tide]

lol

use any other image uploading website then

like imgbb

[turbid tide]

yes? I just told you that I guess you were right.

no. probably not.

@thorn thunder ?

[turbid tide]

.

not sure. that's why I pinged yugi. so he can help. he's the one that added the checks

[thorn thunder]

?

What checks?

[turbid tide]

you added the player has played before and player name != null checks when using /jsexp parse me and somehow apparently it breaks for him

and he was wondering if they can be removed when using /papi parse me

[thorn thunder]

Oh does hasPlayedBefore return false if they just joined?

[turbid tide]

I believe it does

[thorn thunder]

Ah, wasnt aware of that behavior, ill make that change asap

[turbid tide]

not sure why it existed in the first place

[thorn thunder]

The check?

[turbid tide]

bcz thien added it for /jsexp parse <player-name>

as well

[thorn thunder]

Wdym?

The hasPlayedBefore check?

[turbid tide]

yeah.

dk why it was added in the first place

[thorn thunder]

Wait

Is the issue on the older version or the newer one?

One sec lemme get on pc

ah I see

[turbid tide]

he only tested the /jsexp parse me command. it probably would happen on 1.6.0 with the /jsexp parse <player-name> command. since in 1.6.0 the check was only for that command but after that you made it check when using the me command as well

[thorn thunder]

My bad

[thorn thunder]

Yea

[thorn thunder]

Yes?

Not yet, I wont be able to until tonight

Busy with studies

[thorn thunder]

Yes

[warm plover]

Do world time placeholders while no one is online?

[sharp jay]

yes @warm plover

[warm plover]

I was using another plug-in for checking time placeholders and they only work when someone is online. The events the plug-in uses run in the server. They told me it should work but to ask the developers

[sharp jay]

the world time it all depended on the server not players as far as I know

[warm plover]

Yeah I don’t really know what this is caused by so I just requested for them to make a %world_time% built in

[austere hawk]

not sure how to use it

https://paste.helpch.at/udajubudiz.rb

[limber ice]

well Barry don't know all, this works on 7 out of 8 servers just fine. This is a warning I get at bootup

[ivory widget]

Hello, today i find little issue. When i download placeholders for server (papi ecloud download Server) and restart server. All gui form deluxe menu stop working at all. And it happends only with this server papi.

Version deluxemenu + papi = lates build
Version 1.17.1 lates build
Paper spigot
Paste bin : https://pastebin.com/81Lpw7eU

On 1.16.5 is all good

[novel wave]

Hello everyone! Why is papi doing this? https://pastebin.com/fby4Bkeb

[limber ice]

@novel waveuse latest version of papi might fix your problem

[turbid tide]

what version of the server expansion does it download? make sure its the latest as the ecloud one. it might be downloading an old one

[ivory widget]

I was donwload from this github https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders#server where i find version of expansion

[turbid tide]

yes yes. the ecloud download command downloads it from the ecloud. but you need to check what version of the expansion you have.

do /papi dump and send the generated link over

[ivory widget]

https://paste.helpch.at/ehetowebav

[turbid tide]

hmm. it downloads the latest. that's strange.

[ivory widget]

this issue i have only 1.17.1

[turbid tide]

so I'm not sure why it happens but I know how to kinda fix it. you'll have to remove the usage of %server_entities% from all your menus

[ivory widget]

yes i see it now and it work but the issue is strange

anyway thx

[turbid tide]

its just that deluxemenus might be parsing the placeholder async. which is not supported when getting the entities

[ivory widget]

hmmm

yea iam ok with delete this part of menu is only design think 🙂

[wide agate]

Hi I have a little problem and I have the game time of the player in my scoreboard with the placeholder% playertime%. But somehow the correct playing time is not displayed to me, something is displayed but what that is I cannot say. Because it says that I have been on the server for 144 minutes although firstly I have been on the server for a longer time and secondly it is not even minutes because after 1 minuite nothing changes there only after what feels like 10 minutes

[thorn canyon]

Is it possible to use wildcards for servernames, like this? %bungee_arena-*%
and have that get player counts for all servers prefixed with %bungee_arena-1, %bungee_arena-2, %bungee_arena-3, etc

[silver minnow]

no i don't think so, but you can use the math expansion

i think

hmm

or you might have to use js expansion

[limber ice]

@thorn canyonyou can use custom placeholders that will add them up for you

[late cloak]

My Placeholders does not work i installed everything i need for the plugin Scoreboard-revision and it does not work, and if i type /papi reload this error comes up.

@prime totem

[prime totem]

thank youuu

[glacial maple]

dont know if this is the right place to put this, but how does one put placeholders in item lore?

[turbid tide]

you'd need a plugin to handle all that. and I'm pretty sure none exist. and for good reason. they'd have to update your item very often to update the stats.

[silver minnow]

yugi?

[warm plover]

Hey there, I am trying to use %statistic_mine_block:CARROTS% but it always shows as 0 even if I mine a carrot

[turbid tide]

image not working

and please stop DMing people

[glacial maple]

makes sense, thanks for the response ❤️

[hasty iris]

&7☛ &d%statistic_player_kills%/%statistic_deaths%' I did something like this for K/D, but when I kill 1 man, 20 points come in, is that normal? 1 is not necessary to arrive?

[hasty iris]

[turbid tide]

20 what points?

[twin prawn]

Wow that is cool

You can search spigot from discord

scours GitHub to copy and paste

[turbid tide]

not os I'm afraid

but I don't believe is that hard to use spigot's api to do something like this

use one of the unnofficial ones

[clear gorge]

does placeholderAPI only work for 1 plugin at a time?

[fervent spire]

It works for any plugins at one time. Depends how many different placeholders you use

[clear gorge]

How do i get more placeholders

sorry for the basic questions

[fervent spire]

Depends what placeholders you're wanting

[peak oar]

hey, i0m having a problem creating a baltop hologram.

the placeholder will cound only online players

%vault_eco_top_player_1% i'm using this

[keen mica]

Is there a vault placeholder that checks for permissions

[warm flax]

where is the development builds for deluxemenus

[turbid tide]

@warm flax

[warm flax]

ty

[turbid tide]

the palyer expansion has one %player_has_permission_perm.node%

[keen mica]

Sucks it doesn't work offline 😦

[warm flax]

yea bukkit Player#hasPermision doesn't allow that

[keen mica]

Oh, what's the difference between that and vault ranks in functionality? I'm curious 👀

[warm flax]

vault integrates it straight into your permissions plugin

Player#hasPermission uses ur permissions plugin but its very limited due to how bukkit wants you to do it

[keen mica]

Oh ok, so why is it that vault can list ranks but LP can't then? O.o

[warm flax]

Vault isn't a ranks plugin, its a bridge to your rank/eco/chat plugins

[keen mica]

I understand that much, but if it uses LuckPerms to list the ranks, why can't luckperms do that by itself?

[turbid tide]

for offline players//

[warm flax]

You can do it, but like i said its a bridge

[keen mica]

Yeah

[turbid tide]

?

bcz that's' bad

[warm flax]

LuckPerms can list it, but its easier for developers to hook into vault as its one dependency and then luckperms hooks into vault

[turbid tide]

he's asking why luckperms doesn't allow people to access data about offline players

[warm flax]

you can

I've done it before

[turbid tide]

oh actually the placeholders

[keen mica]

You can?!

[turbid tide]

not with the placeholders

[warm flax]

not with placeholders yeah

bc that placeholder uses bukkits permission iirc

[keen mica]

Oh 😔

[turbid tide]

techno accessing the database sync once every ms would be insane

[warm flax]

not vault

yea

[turbid tide]

nah. the luckperms expansion

doesnt allow it either

[warm flax]

i mean they could cache

[elder palm]

%luckperms_has_permission% doesnt work on offline players?

[keen mica]

Nope

[turbid tide]

cache haundreds of players??

what's the point???

maybe thousands

[elder palm]

Lol

[keen mica]

Hmm, I wonder what can be done, I really just want to reskin /lp user Username parent info to be player friendly basically

[warm flax]

thats true

[elder palm]

Wait, what's the objective exactly

[turbid tide]

he want to check ranks and permission using the luckperms expansion but for offline players

[elder palm]

That's nuts

I mean, for a reasonable amount of users, ok i guess but eh yea

[warm flax]

i mean as its a command it aint accessing it every 1ms

[keen mica]

It's for a deluxemenu

[warm flax]

ah nvm

[turbid tide]

doesnt matter techno. just adding that to placeholder would be crazy. lucko clearly said it won't be added

[keen mica]

I want a menu to show all the jobs a player has

Oof

[warm flax]

i could make a plugin for u

[elder palm]

Hold up

[keen mica]

:o. 👀

Oh hold on you are a rep at a development group 🤔

[elder palm]

A menu that shows jobs. For.. offline players who cannot even view the menu while offline... or ... am I dumb rn

[keen mica]

No, for online players to check the jobs of offline players???

[warm flax]

view others?

yeah

[keen mica]

oops

edit

[elder palm]

So the objective is to get player names for job x, job y and so on and list them or the amount of players in jobs

[peak oar]

hey, i'm having a problem creating a baltop hologram.
the placeholder will count only online players
%vault_eco_top_player_1% i'm using this placeholder.

[undone socket]

Hi, I have a problem with the plugin PlaceholderAPI plugin I do not want to start when I try to load it manually, it says that the plugin is turned on even though it is not there (There are no expansionów) after starting the plugin server as the first I initialize the start with an error, I read as if the plugin was already loaded when the plugin is alone without other plugins, everything normally flashes about this is the list of my plugins that are on the server (2 are my authorship but do not use the plugin API) this is the first time I encounter such an error, please quickly help
PS: sorry for poor english

[solar gazelle]

i need help displaying a skript variable in the tab reborn, neznamy told me to come here for help

basically i need to parse a variable, call it {var::%uuid of player%} but idk how

i tried using /papi parse me %skript_var::\%uuid of player%\% but it didnt work

[undone socket]

have you tried this?https://docs.skunity.com/syntax/search/placeholder

[solar gazelle]

yes but i dont get a single thing

god dammit you seriously cant post screenshots in a support channel?

[solar gazelle]

ok well no thank you

Skript
/papi ecloud download skript

%skript_<variable name>%

how do i do this

%skript_variable::%uuid of player%%

[solar gazelle]

this is such a waste of time

okay so i've followed the steps from https://forums.skunity.com/resources/papi-skript-expansion.250/ which includes downloading the thing and restarting my server

i've parsed the variable using /papi parse %skript_variable::{uuid}%

and it still doesn't show in tab

[turbid tide]

have you tested the placeholder using /papi parse?

[solar gazelle]

@turbid tide

[turbid tide]

ugh. you need to parse it for someone

[solar gazelle]

oh i forgot i did papi parse me ...

yeah my bad

[turbid tide]

do /papi dump and send the generated link over please

[solar gazelle]

https://paste.helpch.at/ucohuyegas

[turbid tide]

ok. seems like the skript expansion isn't registered at all. can you please restart your server and send the startup log over?

[solar gazelle]

ill upload the whole log in a sec

[turbid tide]

nah this is enough

[solar gazelle]

oh..

well i've restarted my server but ok

[turbid tide]

so you got an outdated expansion. what you need to do is go to plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansion and delete the skript expansion you got rn. then you need to go here https://github.com/Altruiis/skript-expansion/releases/ and download the expansion from there. after that put what you just downloaded in the expansions folder and then do a /papi reload

[solar gazelle]

alrighttt

oh my god thank you :D

[turbid tide]

👍

[honest spruce]

https://gyazo.com/da9ae51bc33b76ff963e0eaaee966cab does anyone know why in 1.17 placeholder after reloading unregister itself?

[stark palm]

Could anyone help me, ive been trying to update a few plugins on the server and been staring at the error log for too long and im spacing out. It seems like discordSRV is causing an issue when i try to do my papi reload command, I cant seem to find the error spot though

[lone dove]

Hello, I'm looking for help with the MATERIAL NAMES of potions. I can't put them in the following placeholder:% statistic_craft_item: <Item Material>%

[turbid tide]

have you tried checking the logs? maybe an expansion breaks and takes down the entire registration with it

[turbid tide]

I mean can you share the errors?

[turbid tide]

I don't know if that's possible with spigot. since there is just one general name for all potions.

idk if minecraft even keeps track of different potions at all

[honest spruce]

Yeah that what was causing it and I resolved the issue. Cheers for the info tho.

[lone dove]

Hm thank’s

[thick kindle]

how do you get the expansion for factions mcore now?

it doesn't find factions as an expansion even though it was one before

[austere hawk]

For some reason in deluxmenus, the placeholder for player (%player%) is not working

[sharp jay]

@thick kindle Think it was built into the plugin or discontinued

[thick kindle]

well I found it on the website but for some reason it doesn't come up with the command

and no it is not built into factions mcore

but I got it solved anyways by just manually downloading it

hi there, im trying to use this placeholder provided by the plugin playerkits but its no working, it said that it works through papi, so im here to ask if someone know why ( im not able to post pics here)

[slow crystal]

hi, can i make a JS placeholder that doesnt depend on a player

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/blob/e8c478d612d27f192aeddb2a051a365d1f65bd2a/expansion/src/main/java/com/extendedclip/papi/expansion/javascript/JavascriptExpansion.java#L145

i guess not because of this

which is a pain

[turbid tide]

ugh that's offline player

it works for offline players

[slow crystal]

but discordsrv doesn't pass a player at all ;-;

[turbid tide]

ah Ic

[slow crystal]

cringe plugin

[turbid tide]

I mean you could update the js expansion to work without a player. its not that much work

just an extra check in evaluate when adding the offline player bindings

and removing the null checks

but yeah the other papi placeholders that you parse in javascript will not be parsed unless they support null

[slow crystal]

i would rather just make a plugin tbh

bit of a pain but ty

[turbid tide]

👍

[turbid tide]

I'll make an issue anyways. just in case I have nothing to do for the next hacktober fest. lmao

[slow crystal]

good idea

[turbid tide]

man I love my job. just giving myself a pat on the back

[thorn thunder]

Wanting to use null are we? 😈

Anyway, good point. You can probably temporarily use a OfflinePlayer with an impossible name

Assuming there are characters in the username that mojang doesnt allow

[slow crystal]

god no

absolutely not

i fixed it now anyway

with a plugin

[thorn thunder]

ah alrighty

lol

[wary epoch]

Is it possible to get papi expansions removed from ecloud?

We regularly have users who installed an unofficial expansion for our plugin called IridiumExpansion which wasn't updated for about 9 months and completely breaks when being installed. It's just annoying because apparently, many people believe that it's an official expansion and complain in our support about it. I believe that the expansion in its current, outdated state is absolutely useless.

[sharp jay]

@wary epoch whats the name of the expansion?

nvm

@wary epoch Do you have one to replace it with?

[limber ice]

getting this error when trying to get Javascript expansion to work https://paste.helpch.at/fozerowida.sql

PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-132 running on Magma/Paper 1.12.2

the expansion I'm using is Expansion-Javascript-QJS

[limber ice]

I figured out this error, but still can't get the JavaScript placeholders to work, only change now running PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-133 now

which helped me figure out the error better

[calm fiber]

anyone there ?

i need help

[tender vapor]

There is no time to wait! Ask your question @calm fiber!

[calm fiber]

does your plugin stp us from placing armour stands

@vivid sparrow please tell im in a bit of hurry

[vivid sparrow]

what

[calm fiber]

cuz i cant place armour stands in my server

[vivid sparrow]

"your plugin" this is a server where people ask for help with many plugins, be more precise

none of clip's plugins does that

[calm fiber]

does your plugin placeholder-api stop us from placing armour stands

[vivid sparrow]

Why would it do that? No

[calm fiber]

ok thanks

[sharp jay]

lol

[wary epoch]

Oh, did I delete that part of my message? We hardcoded the placeholders, no extension is required. A lot of people apparently don't know that that's possible

[sharp jay]

removed it

[wary epoch]

I don't know what "ping if you're not actively involved in a conversation" is supposed to mean, sorry if it was bad

Thank you

[sharp jay]

https://adamh.tech/2021/11/opera_L2w9VYYgrz.png

[wary epoch]

What do you mean with that? :D

I know that it states that it's an unofficial expansion, but as I mentioned, many people just don't read that text, they probably just search "iridium" and install the first expansion. The issue is that IridiumSkyblock 2.6.7 was published on January 7 2021 and is completely incompatible with IridiumSkyblock 3.0.0 - 3.1.6 (every version after 2.6.7). The functionality is integrated in the plugin now.

[sharp jay]

@wary epoch as an admin set it it will be stayed that way but pretty much it was set as unverified @balmy marten (does this mean the command will not work?)

As this isn't a verified expansion you can only install this expansion manually.

@wary epoch ^

via the ecloud website

[wary epoch]

Oh, I see, that helps a lot

[sharp jay]

Ye

[limber ice]

the vault and JavaScript expansion throw null errors

[turbid tide]

show the errors please. in paste bins

[limber ice]

https://paste.helpch.at/fozerowida.sql here is one I posted last night

[turbid tide]

I've seen this quite a lot lately, from what I've understood the problem could come from plugins that mess with the class loader. Such a plugin is ChatControl. Not sure which others can do this.

[limber ice]

I don;t use chatcontrol, I use dchat

[turbid tide]

yeah but there might be other plugins

[limber ice]

and if I don't run the latest papi dchat will not work

[turbid tide]

that mess with the class loader

doesn't need to be a chat plugin

what I can recommend is remove your plugins 50/50 until it stops to figure out which one it is.

[limber ice]

ok, all plugins on this server run on another server with no issues, difference is bukkit and paper

vault worked on PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-132, I get null error on PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-133

[turbid tide]

@carmine veldt any comment on this? they get the null version error on PAPI 2.10.10-133 (so latest) but not on build 132.

[limber ice]

javascripts gets null on both

[turbid tide]

oh...

[carmine veldt]

can you send the javascript jar

[turbid tide]

which one stops on 132 then?

[limber ice]

I even have tried running one at a time

vault has no error on 132 but don't work

[carmine veldt]

pls send your javascript expansion jar

[limber ice]

I have tried the one from cloud and the javascript one I got from here

[carmine veldt]

what server ver?

[limber ice]

these expansions https://paste.helpch.at/asigopobog.css run fine on Spigot 1.12.2 with PlaceholderAPI-2.10.10-DEV-111, I have tried this same combo on Magma/Paper 1.12.2 and no combo seems to work

vault might of been me delete vault from plugins by mistake reboot server now to test

[carmine veldt]

using that jar u sent

paper 1.12.2

and the latest papi

javascript works

[limber ice]

nope https://paste.helpch.at/quxodoholo.sql

[carmine veldt]

can u send ur vault jar & vault expansion

[limber ice]

I'm not running normal paper, it's magma/paper

[carmine veldt]

can you link that or send me the jar for it please

[limber ice]

https://magmafoundation.org/, I wouldn't run paper, but this is how I can tie in all my servers chat

magma allows me to run forge mods

[carmine veldt]

yep magma is the problem

when I used magma it broke

[limber ice]

I can make a temp server and pull one mob out at a time to see one of those are my problem, mods can't be removed as easy as plugins without causing issues to the map since they add new blocks

you had no mods

[carmine veldt]

yeah no mods

just papi plugin and javascript expansion

and I got the same null error

issue is magma

[limber ice]

I know when I reboot server with someone still connected it may not start back up

guess I will have to not use JavaScript placeholders and vault, I can see is ess works

javascript just allowed chat colors I'm sure I can figure out another way

essentails expansion will not load either, guess I will remove balance from dchat

[turbid tide]

a lot of the expansions handled by helpchat will break if thats the case. so youll probably have to give up a lot of expansions

[limber ice]

I know, I have 4 working and no need to add more yet

I see it as use dchat on all servers is more important then a few placeholders

[austere hawk]

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

Someone can help me ?

[turbid tide]

server version?

[austere hawk]

1.8.8

[turbid tide]

welp. deluxemenus doesnt support that anymore

[austere hawk]

I have to use version 1.10.5 ?

What was the error if not?

[turbid tide]

yes you have to use version 1.10.5

The menu does not want to open and that puts errors in the console! Do you think it must come from the JavaScript expansion?

[turbid tide]

what error does it put?

oh yes @austere hawk the error can show up from the javascript expansion as well. if your server is 1.8 then your java version must be 8 right? you'll probably have to downgrade the javascript expansion as well

[limber ice]

ok pinger expansion has no errors when I parse this it says offline when it is online %pinger_online_127.0.0.1:25450%

should I try and downgrade pinger on 1.12.2

[austere hawk]

Can I have javascript for version 1.8.8 please

[turbid tide]

I believe version 1.6.0 should work.

[austere hawk]

How did they find version 1.6.0?

On the web site there are no javascript versions

[turbid tide]

/papi ecloud download javascript 1.6.0 then /papi reload

yes?

This server is running Tuinity version git-Tuinity-"4c31ea1" (MC: 1.17.1) (Implementing API version 1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT) (Git: 4c31ea1 on HEAD)
You are running the latest version

[turbid tide]

btw. just so you know. tuinity now comes inside paper. so maybe try latest paper build

[pulsar cipher]

I thought it hadn't passed yet? Are they integrated?

[turbid tide]

oh. did they not? I might misremember.

tuinity is archived so it must have passed

[pulsar cipher]

ow, thanks for information. Whatever how about player_kills xd

[turbid tide]

well I'm saying try paper just in case

something is messed up with the server jar

tho I doubt it

[pulsar cipher]

le me sec

[turbid tide]

if it still doesn't work for some reason, test %statistic_PLAYER_KILLS% maybe it doesnt like the lowercase

and make sure you have the latest version of the statistic expansion

[pulsar cipher]

i have just installed the expension

now, im waiting the server

okey

[pulsar cipher]

thats worked

thanks ^^, it must be cause of lowercase

[turbid tide]

yeah. strange tho. I'm 100% sure that it should make it uppercase

before trying to get the statistics from paper

yeah. the code is there

[tired arch]

Hi I need help with placeholderAPI not noticing that the essentials Expansion is not downloaded. I am also using Magma 1.12.2 so idk if that has anything to do with it but i just would like to have my nicknames working in chat

[turbid tide]

if you read few messages above, you'll see that manga breaks loading for a lot of expansion and I'm afraid there is no fix on our end for that

[tired arch]

oh okay. Is there another way around it for nicknames on essentials to work?

[turbid tide]

you can try the player expansion with the %player_displayname% placeholder

[tired arch]

It still just shows percentplayer_displaynamepercent. Is there an expanison for it or no? if not nicknames aren't that big of a deal. 🙂

[turbid tide]

yeah. /papi ecloud download player then /papi reload

[tired arch]

ah perfect!

it works

[austere hawk]

does anyone know where i can download an older version of placeholderapi that supports 1.7?

[turbid tide]

Spigot page. There is a "version" or "version history" tab

[sick mauve]

Hi! And how to combine bold text with this placeholder %gradient_message_{#hex1}_{#hex2}_message with colors% or %gradient_percent_{#hex1}_{#hex2}_{percentage:0..100}%?

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

[sharp jay]

You cant

[sick mauve]

Maybe there is a similar placeholder that I do not know about?

[sharp jay]

havent seen any that supports bold its open src so you can always add it yourself

[sick mauve]

Okay, thanks

[austere turtle]

What's wrong with PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders (player, text); In text there are several placeholders in% ...%

But nothing happens. Only the placeholder% ...% is output

[mint fable]

several placeholders? do you have an example of the text

[limber ice]

not sure why this error happens during bootup of Spigot 1.17.1 https://paste.helpch.at/raqinusayu.sql

[warm topaz]

update the server expansion

[limber ice]

thanks, I updated the rest of the expansions, a few show they need update but they are built into the plugin, how do I fix those?

[untold tinsel]

how can i get stsats from offline players like with this for ex %statistic_mob_kills% how can i make that with offline players?

[simple nova]

if %essentialsnick% not working what cause it

it worked tho but now it shows the placeholder not the name

[austere turtle]

Yes there are several in the text

[austere turtle]

?

[turbid tide]

thats not a valid essentials placeholder. it should be `%essentials_nickname%

[mint fable]

Do you have an example of the text? Or the exact text you're trying to use by chance?

[austere turtle]

"[%clan_tag%]"

[turbid tide]

do you have the clan expansion installed on your server?

also what plugin does this clan placeholder come from? can you link

?

[austere turtle]

This Plugin use PAPI

[turbid tide]

do /papi parse me %clan_name% while youre on the server and tell me what it says

[warm plover]

Is there a placeholder for a player's name in all lowercase letters?

[turbid tide]

no. not that hard to make with javascript tho.

it should be just one line

BukkitPlayer.getName().toLowerCase();```

literally just this in a js placeholder

[warm plover]

hmm don't really know too much about them but ty

[turbid tide]

here's the wiki for it ^^

[warm plover]

works! ty!

[turbid tide]

👍

[austere turtle]

%clan_name%

[turbid tide]

yeah. that means that either that placeholder is not a PlaceholderAPI placeholder, or your expansion is missing or just broken.

you'll have to ask the developer of that plugin to see what's going on

[austere turtle]

Ok

Thanks

[austere hawk]

Hi!

How do i activate placeholder?

[sharp jay]

wym

[tender cliff]

Hi

I try to install placeholderapi skript extension but its not working

[plain sequoia]

Are you installing through game/console or manually by putting .jar into folder?

[snow whale]

hey.. so when i change the group/rank prefix to hex codes in luckperms it looks fine in tab (using bungeetabplus) but in chat it keeps the '&' for some reason, using deluxechat.. tried all different placeholders.. vault, luckperms etc.. all keep the '&'
any ideas? xd

[tender cliff]

In game

But i thinking i am using a old version of skript. Can that be the problem?

[vivid sparrow]

https://github.com/Altruiis/skript-expansion/releases/

[tender cliff]

i tried

[hasty iris]

When you kill 1 person, it should write 1 kill, but it writes 20 kills, what is the reason? https://prnt.sc/1zkd76e I use "d%statistic_player_kills%"

[turbid tide]

I mean the expansion just gets the statisitics from spigot/minecraft. they're saved in world/stats/player-uuid.json. You probably have a plugin that messes with the statistics or something

[turbid tide]

and? u cheked the startup log for errors/warnings?

[obtuse tulip]

hey folks, im trying to get a command working in skript and its doing my head in. I had everything right up until the point where i realised that luckperms doesnt play nicely with skript. so ive setup placeholderapi and downloaded the luckperms and skript extensions and im still struggling.

can someone please have a quick look at this code and let me know what im doing wrong? Thanks so much

every 10 minutes:
    loop all players:
        if {play::%loop-player%::time} is greater than or equal to 10 minutes:
            if loop-player %player_has_permission_<discord.nolink>% contains "yes":
                send "You need to link your account" to loop-player
                send "Go to blah blah" to loop-player
        else:
            stop

[sharp jay]

why skript 😭

[obtuse tulip]

lol i asked the guys over in the skript discord the same question and they said why luckperms and then pointed me to the placeholderapi link

[sharp jay]

skript aint good

[obtuse tulip]

what would you suggest instead that can achieve what im trying to do?

[sharp jay]

making an actual plugin

[obtuse tulip]

i wouldnt even know where to start

[fervent spire]

Hire a developer to make one for you then. #904591268515029032 #904591269005770762

[06:19:39 ERROR]: [PlaceholderAPI] failed to load class files of expansions
java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.lang.Class.getClassLoader()" because "result" is null
why does this happen on startup sometimes?

it fixes with a reboot but comes back randomly

[stoic grove]

remove the brackets between discord.nolink

[obtuse tulip]

tried that with no luck. i think its an issue with skript not reading %player_has_permission_discord.nolink%

i thought skquery allowed skript to use placeholderapi variables but i dont think thats the case

[stoic grove]

ah

[obtuse tulip]

Yeah. So I’ve just installed Ersatz which I think is going to solve the issue but I’m giving up for the night. Thanks for the suggestion though

[turbid tide]

is that the entire error? nothing more?

[shut mountain]

Hey guys, i need someone to help me, i use %player_first_join_date% as first join date BUT some players even me have bug, where the first join date resets randomly. For me my first played was 9.3.2021 and now its 14.11.2021 - the exact time matches with time that was "disconnect by myself"

Need to mention i use ForceResourcepacks, if player declines it, it kicks them (dont know if it can be doing something with papi or not)

[elder palm]

Is it possible that your uuid changed? Certain plugins mess with uuids, an improperly configured bungee network can cause this as well. That's the only possibility I see here. A new uuid would mean a new data entry - makes sense

[shut mountain]

UUID is same

thats the weird part

new UUID would case item delete

[turbid tide]

well not sure this is fixable from PlaceholderAPI either way. The Player expansion just takes the time from spigot itself which takes it from the world/playerdata/<player-uuid>.json file.

as Zeromaniac said, either you have plugins messing with uuids, either you have plugins messing directly with the data file or your uuid changed

[scarlet compass]

Who to find a scoreboard plugins that does not need PlaceHodlerAPI or if you can find version 1.7.10

[craggy ravine]

Hello, it say failed to load class file expansion how do i fix this

[turbid tide]

send the full error in a paste bin please: https://paste.helpch.at

[craggy ravine]

oh sorry, i already fix it, turn out there is one expansion that is not working(?)

[smoky spoke]

https://pastebin.com/u2ieR1Lh
what's wrong with this?

[turbid tide]

what version of the math expansion do you have?

[smoky spoke]

actually im just asking questions on behalf of another person
that person downloaded the math placeholder with the /papi ecloud download Math command
and that error appeared

[royal latch]

and that person is me.

so you can aske me here.

[royal latch]

thank you.

[royal latch]

Math [1.3.0] sir

[turbid tide]

what server version and what java version are you using?

also is that the entire error?

[royal latch]

Yes, it is.

1.12.2 with java 8

[turbid tide]

ah. that might explain it. the Math expansion will require java 11 to work properly

[royal latch]

i see, so there is no way to fix it right?

[turbid tide]

you could possibly go down a few versions and use that. but it will be using a different format and could have some bugs

[modern lynx]

how can I use RelCon expansion? none of the placeholders work

[swift ravine]

can i have some help?

[turbid tide]

maybe? just tell us what the problem is. we can't guess

[swift ravine]

I got a new extended storage devise for my computer and I have set it up and it appears on my files and it works as I have tried installing a game on it but there is an application I'm trying to download on there but it download on my normal storage which is full and cant download it is there any way to make it to download it on the extended storage device?

[turbid tide]

Ugh. I'm not sure this has anything to do with PlaceholderAPI? This discord server is about minecraft and development. Not sure I can help with that. you can try in #dev-general tho but doubt a lot of people will be able to help

[swift ravine]

ok

thanks

[modern lynx]

how can I use RelCon expansion? none of the placeholders work

@austere hawk

[modern lynx]

Is there a way to learn a player's name from their UUID with a placeholder?

[turbid tide]

I dont think so. well its possible but there isn't a placeholder for that

if you know javascript you could use the javsacript expansion to make it

to make a placeholder that does that*

actually. not sure its possible with the js expansion

[modern lynx]

nah I don't

thanks

[turbid tide]

you might need a custom expansion for that

[modern lynx]

ok

[junior musk]

should be possible, you can use BukkitServer.getPlayer(uuid),

[turbid tide]

welll

you see

[junior musk]

well, that would only work with online player though

[turbid tide]

no

bcz

getPlayer requires UUID

not a string

[junior musk]

oh I see, and I guess there isn't a way to get an UUID from a string within JS ?

or at least, the Java UUID class

[turbid tide]

Yeah

[vivid sparrow]

You can call java stuff from js

for nashorn you use Java.type("") or smth

[turbid tide]

oh damn. you're right

[vivid sparrow]

🙂

[turbid tide]

gaby any chance you know what it is for quick js? been looking around and I found something about JavaClass.forName but doesn't work. it doesnt exist basically

[vivid sparrow]

no clue

[elder flax]

I've tried this placeholder: %rel_relcon_player_group.default_&a%%rel_relcon_viewer_group.default_&c%
and it gives red on both player and viewer
why?

[sterile vigil]

I get package me.clip.placeholderapi does not exist when I try to compile my plugin, I'm just trying to hook into PlaceHolderAPI
I added this to my pom.xml

            <repository>
                <id>placeholderapi</id>
                <url>https://repo.extendedclip.com/content/repositories/placeholderapi/</url>
            </repository>

and

        <dependency>
        <groupId>me.clip</groupId>
        <artifactId>placeholderapi</artifactId>
        <version>2.10.0</version>
        <scope>provied</scope>
        </dependency>

When I import import me.clip.placeholderapi.PlaceholderAPI; it's blue (the normal color) and its not grayed out.

Don't exactly know how to fix this... pointers?

[austere hawk]

ty u xd and here %math_0:_{quests_category:mining_completed}/9*100)%%' u can help me plz xd

[sterile vigil]

anyone?

[warm topaz]

possibly because uve spelt provided wrong

also, did u mean 2.10.10 version? because 2.10.0 is like 2 years out of date

[sterile vigil]

not too sure what to use then, the placeholder wiki said to use 2.10.0

[sterile vigil]

It’s blue though, and it i shift click it (my import) it opens the code in my libraries

[warm topaz]

that is what is weird, but my guess is that the IDE doesnt read the scope value, so it works, but when compiling it will error on mavens end (just a random guess)
could also be a cache issue thats causing the inconsistency between maven and IDE

also, what wiki are u looking at? because on github its fine, which is the latest wiki

[sterile vigil]

Okay I think I see the issue

Let me try something

[sterile vigil]

used 2.10.10
I mistook the 'this example only works for 2.10.0 or higher!' for 2.10.0 to be the version I should use

thank you very much!

[elder flax]

I've tried this placeholder: %rel_relcon_player_group.default_&a%%rel_relcon_viewer_group.default_&c%

i think the issue here is magma

other people have reported this issue, all with magma

Thanks

[hard wolf]

Is it possible to run place holder API with mohist?

[turbid tide]

yeah but we've noticed a lot of expansions breaking on it

so you can run only a few expansions

[elder flax]

It is RelCon expansion, not plugin

[turbid tide]

I think he means in what plugin are you testing it?

because plugins need to specifically support relational placeholders otherwise they won't be parsed right

[elder flax]

I used /papi parserel to test it, and I was using it on TAB

Also I think TAB supports it because owner told me to ask it there

[turbid tide]

ok. just to make sure. have you read the wiki for the relcon expansion to see how it works?

[elder flax]

Yes.

[thorn thunder]

There isnt any afaik

[turbid tide]

sad

[thorn thunder]

We could add our own api if needed

If there any specific use-case where thats needed?

[turbid tide]

if you want. but I personally wouldn't use it anyways

[thorn thunder]

ah, nvm then

[turbid tide]

the guy wanted to get a player's name from their uuid

and to do that I would've needed the UUID class

[thorn thunder]

hmm

[turbid tide]

can you show me the exact command youve used to test?

[thorn thunder]

I think its possible with some reflection

BukkitServer

provides Server, which has the getOfflinePlayer method

if you reflectively try to get the first argument, you should get the UUID class

[elder flax]

/papi parserel PlayerOne PlayerTwo %rel_relcon_player_group.default_&a%%rel_relcon_viewer_group.default_&c%

[thorn thunder]

const a = BukkitServer.getClass().getMethods()
var uuidClass

for (i : a) {
  if (i.getName() != "getOfflinePlayer") continue;
  uuidClass = i.getParameterTypes()[0] 
}

[turbid tide]

alr

[turbid tide]

Well that will only return colors. have oyu tried placing text inbetween to see how it works? Also I can't seem to get my minecraft to launch so can't test it myself

[elder flax]

https://i.imgur.com/yKOZXtF.png

/papi parserel PlayerOne PlayerTwo %rel_relcon_player_group.default_&aasdasd%%rel_relcon_viewer_group.default_&casdasd%

[turbid tide]

so finally got minecraft to run.

[turbid tide]

what this will do is check if PlayerOne has permission group.default and it will show &aasdasd if they do have it and then check if PlayerTwo has permission group.default and it will show &casdasd if they do have it

is that what youre trying to do?

[elder flax]

Actually I just want every player to see their name green and red for others. I don't know why this thing require permission

So I entered a random permission which is everyone has

[turbid tide]

oh

I don't think you can use the relcon expansion for that

you might need a custom expansion for that as I don't think there is one that does what you need or can do what you need

[elder flax]

😦

[turbid tide]

yeah. the problem is that this expansion checks for permissions. not something else. if it would let to check for name for example, we could do that but it doesn't

[elder flax]

okay

[turbid tide]

So it didn't let me use : but switched to of and it tells me that the value is not iterable

printing a I get [Ljava.lang.reflect.Method;@21e06d3a

its not an array

[olive frigate]

Heyo! Im trying to parse 2 placeholders into one, i only dont know how. I am trying to get the world time of the world that the player is in with %world_time24_<world>*, only the <world> differs between players and i dont know how i can make it take the %player_world% value

[turbid tide]

hello. you don't have to do that at all. the player expansion has world time already. %player_world_time_12% %player_world_time_24% and I'm pretty sure the world expansion just tells you to use these instead. it doesn't even work anymore.

[olive frigate]

that indeed works! i dont know why i didnt see them. Thanks!

[hard wolf]

I am just trying to run like 4 in total but one of them is not working at all on mohist

Its the core one too :(

[turbid tide]

btw. just so you know for the future, not all expansion support placeholders in placeholders. those that do are usually %placeholder_{in_placeholder}%

so basically { instead of % for the inner placeholders

[turbid tide]

yeah. am afraid there is no fix from our side. mohist messes with the class loaded

[hard wolf]

Alright I will go over there Thanks :)

[finite bluff]

Hey guys so im trying out PAPI for the first time and i've run into this issue i cant figure out how to solve

I have a scoreboard dummy objective called sidebarcountdown that holds a number

when i parse this for myself with sidebarcountdown = 120
%changeoutput_equals_{objective_score_sidebarcountdown}_-1_Waiting..._{formatter_number_time_{objective_score_sidebarcountdown}}%
It outputs {formatter
I expected it to output 2m

when i parse this for myself with sidebarcountdown = 120
%formatter_number_time_{objective_score_sidebarcountdown}%
Its outputs 2m as expected

and if i replace {objective_score_sidebarcountdown} in the main placeholder with 120 literally, it works just fine

Is there a limit on how much you can nest placeholders? How can i make this work?

[junior musk]

unfortunately you can't parse nested placeholders within nested placeholders

so your method won't work

[finite bluff]

:(

is there any other quick way to do what im doing?

[junior musk]

though you could use the JavaScript expansion to do that

[finite bluff]

hm okay i will try that

thank you:)

[junior musk]

/papi ecloud download Javascript
/papi reload
go in /plugins/PlaceholderAPI/ and open javascript_placeholders.yml, add

objective:
  file: objective.js

in it
then go in /plugins/PlaceholderAPI/javascripts/ and create a file called objective.js

open that file and put this in it:

function objective() {
    var obj = PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders(BukkitPlayer,"%objective_score_sidebarcountdown%")
    return obj == -1 ? "Waiting..." : PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders(BukkitPlayer,"%formatter_number_time_"+obj+"%")
}
objective()

/papi reload
and then you can use %javascript_objective%

@finite bluff

[turbid tide]

file called objective.js not tokens.js

[junior musk]

oops

forgot to change from the old msg 😅

thx

[turbid tide]

👍

[finite bluff]

oh wow you wrote it for me
Thank you so much :D

[thorn thunder]

That is an array

[thorn thunder]

You can use .forEach

Man barry ffs

[timid fox]

guys

how to unregister my expansion when plugin is disabled

i see no unregister method

(api)

or does it do it auto?

[turbid tide]

I mean your plugin should only be disabled when the server stops anyways. And yeah I believe it auto unregisters. there's no unregister method that's for sure

actually. there might be some but you're not meant to use it

[timid fox]

yeye but in some cases it can disable randomly

(simply when using a plugin manager)

[turbid tide]

yeah. people should not use those.

you should not bother fixing your plugin for people that use those

Hello,

I get an error message with PAPI: https://pastebin.com/G84ke8Pm

I am in 1.12.2, I have the latest version of PAPI (I tried 2.10.9) & the latest version of SaberFaction.

try to redownload the Player and Mvdw expansions

/papi ecloud download Server

if it keeps happening, check in your Expansions folder in your PlaceholderAPI folder if you don't have the expansion files 2 times

[ancient marsh]

Okay

As on featherboard all my placeholders are coming up empty l

[junior musk]

you said you're using SaverFactions right? well it seems like you've got the expansion for Factions by MassiveCraft, which doesn't work since the plugin isn't installed, try to go to your Expansions folder in your PlaceholderAPI folder and delete the factions expansion, and see if it happens again

[grand cosmos]

Resolve ! Thanks 🙂
