so this?

Hey!

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

Barry's Anti Abuse System | v1.4.7

[strange hedge]

%formatter_number_timeminutes{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left}%

because i tried this and it doesnt work

[wet basin]

@vivid sparrow Unknown expansion.

[strange hedge]

it doesnt work

i have this

%formatter_number_time_hours{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left}%

and it just shows that exact text on my tab menu

not the formatted time

[mint fable]

missing a _

after hours

also I believe it should be minutes or fromMinutes instead of hours

[strange hedge]

why?

[mint fable]

but, did you want to show all that info?

you're going from minutes to days, hours, minutes

if you just want hours and not days/minutes, use the javascript one I made above

[strange hedge]

im trying to make my rankup minutes show as hours

instead of minutes

[mint fable]

yes

just hours?

or do you want hours + minutes

[strange hedge]

hours + minutes

[mint fable]

what sort of format

I'll code it for ya

If I said you have 87 left, what do you want to see?

[strange hedge]

1 hour 27 minutes left

[mint fable]

var time = "%placeholder%";
var minutes = parseInt(time);
var out = "";
if(!isNaN(minutes)){
  var minutesString = "";
  if(minutes>1){
    minutesString = " minutes";
  }else if (minutes>0){
    minutesString = " minute";
  }
  var hours = minutes/60;
  var hoursString = "";
  if(hours>1){
    hoursString = " hours ";
  }else if (hours>0){
    hoursString = " hour ";
  }
    out = hours + hoursString + (minutes%60) + minutesString;
}
out;

try that

[vivid sparrow]

But cj, formatter expansion does that already

Well, mostly

[mint fable]

what if it's over 24 hours

that's all I'm here for

[vivid sparrow]

It will convert it in days, hours, minutes, seconds

[mint fable]

I wrote that all in discord

no idea if it works

[strange hedge]

i have no idea how to use that bruh

im using it in a tab menu plugin for my players' sidebar

to show their rankup progress

[mint fable]

ya bro I'd say stick with formatter

does it ever get over 24 hours?

do you care if it shows days?

[strange hedge]

yeah thats fine

[mint fable]

/papi parse me %formatter_number_time_minutes_{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left}%

if that don't work change minutes to fromMinutes

[vivid sparrow]

it is minutes from what I see

[strange hedge]

ill let you know if it works

yeah it just makes the placeholder go blank

like nothing is displayed there anymore

[strange hedge]

how?

[strange hedge]

i tried this but my placeholder just goes blank

[mint fable]

hmm

did ya try fromMinutes by chance

[steel basin]

Then dont support 1.17.1 always see my own placeholders and not other

[mint fable]

It's dependent on the placeholder you're parsing, what are you trying?

parseother is simple just that, it "parses other"

if the other placeholder doesn't support offline players (or can't) then it won't work

examples are: permission placeholders

[steel basin]

I connected to the server with a different character and still saw myself

[mint fable]

huh?

Can you explain a bit about your issue?

what exact placeholder(s) are you having issues with

what does it say for each one?

[strange hedge]

yes still makes it blank

[vivid sparrow]

%formatter_number_time_minutes_190% try this

[strange hedge]

how would i use that with this

%formatter_number_time_fromMinutes_{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left}%

[mint fable]

if you surround your text in `` it stops formatting from occuring

[strange hedge]

this is the whole line from my sidebar config

• '&bPlaytime&7: %formatter_number_time_fromMinutes_{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left}%'

[vivid sparrow]

what is exactly the output of that rankup placeholder

[strange hedge]

nothing

like literally nothing displays

[vivid sparrow]

This,{rankup_requirement_playtime-hours_left} right?

[strange hedge]

do you mean the ranks placeholder itself?

or the whole thing

[vivid sparrow]

dumb stickers

yes, the rankup placeholder

parse it with %%

[strange hedge]

oh my god

1 second no wonder

Ah

okokokok

im just a bozo

i got it to work thank you

playtime-hours wasnt even a placeholder

it was playtime-minutes

[mint fable]

where did you get the placeholders from?

[strange hedge]

papi github

the wiki

[mint fable]

i might be too far gone because I don't see that anywhere on there

or the fact that playtime-hours is even a thing

[strange hedge]

its not

[mint fable]

or playtime-minutes

[strange hedge]

thats what i meant

[mint fable]

ohh is playtime-minutes another placeholder?

this makes sense

[strange hedge]

yeah its from the ranks plugin, i had changed it to playtime-hours (which isnt a placeholder for the plugin) and forgot to change it back

[mint fable]

man I don't even see %playtime_minutes%

err playtime-minutes

[dense sequoia]

Hey, placeholders api dont work in My bungee server

[mint fable]

it's not a bungee plugin

they're server-dependent

[dense sequoia]

Ah

But I put the plugin in the papermc server and nope

[vivid sparrow]

What exactly doesnt work

[strange hedge]

so 1 more thing, i cant send the screenshot here but i have an option in my ranks plugin to see how much time you have left needed to rankup if you click the rank itself

Hi, how i can use papi in bungeecord?

[celest heath]

Papi doesn’t support bungee, you’ll need to have placeholderAPI installed on all your servers.

[dense sequoia]

I have installe but dont load

[celest heath]

It doesn’t load on any of your servers?

[dense sequoia]

load but dont load de placeholders

Do /papi ecloud download LuckPerms

[sacred locust]

Hello, I am having a hard time trying to use PlaceholderAPI with TitleManager, I've done some troubleshooting and I'm pretty sure the issue is with papi, basically I am running the latest version of papermc (1.18.1) with papi 2.11.1. I am trying to show the player's ping in the scoreboard but I'm getting the console flooded with errors

[celest heath]

Then do /papi reload

[dense sequoia]

i do that

[dense sequoia]

and that

but dont work

[celest heath]

Did it register the expansion?

[dense sequoia]

yes

see

[celest heath]

Can you send the errors here?

[dense sequoia]

https://imgur.com/undefined

https://imgur.com/LnXqZpv

[celest heath]

Try removing that luckperms expansion and repeating the install steps again

[sacred locust]

I deleted the plugin's folder, re-downloaded every extension, tried it in a clean server with just those two plugins but still nothing, this is the error I am getting https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/pufacimowe.properties

[dense sequoia]

wait me

[celest heath]

Does titlemanager work without placeholderAPI installed?

[dense sequoia]

nope

[sacred locust]

yes it does it just displays %player_ping% instead of the player's ping

I can use the plugin's internal placeholders to display other stuff such as the player's rank, apparently I'm having issues with just the player's ping

[celest heath]

Have you tried using a bit older version of titlemanager? I do know that a few of the more recent versions have been having some issues.

[last sage]

I hope this is the right chat but anyone know why this %deluxetags_tag% doesnt work in the essentialsx config file? it works in my tablist plugin I have been told that this this server could tell me how to add deluxetags to essentials

[fervent spire]

?tagess

[tender vapor]

FAQ Answer:

DeluxeTags showing in essentials chat:
1. Stop the server.
2. Turn off the papi_chat option in the DeluxeTags config. deluxe_chat in older versions.
3. Turn off the format_chat option in the DeluxeTags config.
4. Put {deluxetags_tag} in your essentialschat chat format.
5. For Versions Below 1.8.2: Replace all the placeholders in the DeluxeTags config
%placeholder% to {placeholder} (Ex: %deluxetags_tag% to {deluxetags_tag}).
6. Start the server.

Do any luckperms placeholders work?

[gloomy crater]

is there a placeholder for the server time that returns the raw value, kinda like %player_last_join% does, but for the current time?

both server- and player-expansion doesnt seem to contain it. only the formatted ones

I wanna calculate the difference between two different recorded timestamps

[mint fable]

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki/Community-Scripts#difference-between-2-dates

@gloomy crater

[gloomy crater]

by the looks of it tthe startDate is a fixed value, which isnt something I want

[turbid tide]

well yeah. but you set the start date to whatever you want. in this case a placeholder.

[gloomy crater]

I want to track the time, for example, between two button presses

[turbid tide]

well you'll have to split the parsed placeholder

into its components first

[gloomy crater]

thats great, but in this case I want that placeholder to be the current (first press) time as well

[turbid tide]

well you'd have to store that somewhere

[gloomy crater]

I already got a function to get the difference between the two. The issue is getting the current server time

[turbid tide]

I mean %server_time% returns the current time

its just that it is formatted

[gloomy crater]

yea, and I want it raw :Þ

like how player_last_join has done it

[austere hawk]

any luck with my issue?

[gloomy crater]

I could use maths with all the different formats and convert that into seconds, but not every month has the same amount of days, so it will be inaccurate if it jumps from one month to another

[runic frost]

Am I able to replace Null or blank text with a string?

[vivid sparrow]

in what context?

[runic frost]

On the scoreboard we have a PlotSquared placeholder to show what claim you are in. When you aren't in a claim, it's blank

Found solution

%changeoutput_<options>_<input>_<matcher>_<output-if-matched>_<output-if-not-matched>%

wait it isn't working

does anyone have an alternative? 😄 lol

[vivid sparrow]

javascript expansion probably

or look at PS lang files, maybe it has something for that

what placeholder do you use btw @runic frost

[runic frost]

%plotsquared_currentplot_alias%

[vivid sparrow]

Looks like it returns info.none if the plot doesn't have an alias, and probably an empty value if there's no plot, hmm

[runic frost]

Yeah, a bit strange

Hi just done this timing reports. Just wondering why papi is using the most resources: https://timings.aikar.co/?id=befcb5dd36e14adebfdcc56cc453d980#plugins

[vivid sparrow]

Can you try to remove NexEngins and see if anything is changed?

[austere hawk]

will do, PlaceholderAPI::Task: me.clip.placeholderapi.util.Futures$$Lambda$8170 (Single) seems to be what is chewing resources if that helps

[vivid sparrow]

That just schedule stuff to be run sync or async, papi alone won't kill the performances, some plugin is using that part of papi

[vivid sparrow]

[hoary crane]

Is there a way to read the result of a placeholders in console without using / papi parse?

With JS I would like to make a placeholder that returns a command if the condition for player is true, otherwise nothing

[formal vessel]

perhaps this is down to the plugin in question, but I'm using the lands plugin for claiming land, their lang.yml supports papi, there's a section for showing the name of whomever owns the land you're stepping into, by default this is set to "%owner%", I set it to "%essentials_nickname%" but as I thought this just shows my nickname for every single piece of land, is there a way/format for using papi when you want the placeholder to apply to an unspecified other player?

  land:
    title:
      land: '&7%level% &7By&6 %owner%&7.'# Something like %display_name% ?
      camp: '&7Camp of&3 %owner%&7.'
      admin: '&7This land belongs to the server.'
    default-area: Default

here's the section for reference

[vivid sparrow]

contact the developer and ask them

[fast isle]

hello sir

i installed the essentials expansion into papi and it doesnt work

it doesnt show up under the register command

nor does it show up in the list

[austere hawk]

hey how to refresh the baltop leaderboard ?(essentials)

[fleet crest]

Is there any expansion or plugin that allows using inventory placeholders?

We want to create a system where people can use deluxemenus to choose special colored nicknames

If not i guess javascript placeholders won't be hard

[vivid sparrow]

Do you want to store a value and retrive it with a placeholder?

If do and you are on 1.14+ you can use deluxemenus' [meta] action and the placeholders for that

It store the data on player's PersistentDataContainer

[fleet crest]

no, i want to have an anvil where people can type the nick they want

[slim wave]

Good day,
I have a problem with PlaceholderAPI. None of the placeholders are working with DeluxeMenus. I'm using the latest version of both plugins, but things like head-%player_name% or %statistic_time_played% aren't working. Neither do the ecloud downloads create any gui menu's in the DeluxeMenus folder.
Thanks in advance for any help given.

[turbid tide]

have you tried the placeholder with the /papi parse command?

[slim wave]

Hadn't tried that yet. Did so now but doesn't work.

send a startup log then.

Ok, give me a minute :)

It just gives the standard plugin loading stuff. It correctly enables all expansions for things like DiscordSRV, until at a certain point it says this:

[15:02:31] [Server thread/WARN]: [PlaceholderAPI] There was an issue with loading an expansion.
[15:02:31] [Server thread/INFO]: 0 placeholder hook(s) registered!

This is probably the MCMMO expansion (which i tried enabling)

[turbid tide]

well that really doesn't help me. what would help is you sending the entire startup log tho

oh. your logs copmacts errors into one line. that's very unfortunate. Well I guess the only good way I can think of to find out which expansion is at fault is to go and 1 by 1 remove your expansions and reload /papi reload until it actually loads the expansions.

You can find the expansions in plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions/

[slim wave]

Yeah, i did actually take a look at the expansions folder, it does contain a jar file for the MCMMO expansion, but according to various tutorials that should also create a example menu in the deluxemenus gui-menus folder, which for me it didn't. As for reloading i did that multiple times.

Even restarting my server itself once or twice.

[turbid tide]

can you remove the mcmmo expansion and reload after? see if the There was an issue ... line still shows up

[vast ibex]

Could it be that when I do /papi parse me %cmi_user_stats_playtime% it shows it to me differently than deluxe menus?

[turbid tide]

even when you reopen the menu the value in the menu doesn't update?

[vast ibex]

Thats not really what I'm going for

1sec

Hi. I'm hoping someone has ran into this issue and would be able to help me.

I'm trying to let a player rankup after 1 hour of playtime. I want them to be able to click on an item in the deluxemenus menu but I can't figure it if im doing the requirement wrong or if it's the placeholder that I can't figure out.

The placeholer (%cmi_user_stats_playtime%) returns x days x hours x min x sec

I wrote this earlier

in #general-plugins

[slim wave]

Just removed the expansion, reloaded, downloaded it again and reloaded it again. The error still shows up.

[turbid tide]

ah. well there is no real way to compare days, hours, minutes in deluxemenus since that's basically a string. does CMI have a placeholder that would return all that playtime in seconds by any chance?

[turbid tide]

well no. don't redownload it. tell me if the error shows up when you delete it and reload

[slim wave]

Also tried it without redownloading

It doesn't show any errors then.

[turbid tide]

how do you download the expansion? from where?

[slim wave]

./papi ecloud download mcMMO

[turbid tide]

I just looked thru the logs. You don't seem to have any mcmmo plugin installed?

that's probably why the expansion breaks

[slim wave]

Weird, since when i look in the expansions folder in the placeholderapi files it does show the Expansion-mcmmo.jar

[vast ibex]

hm why didn't I think of that xd I can do only hours via %cmi_user_playtime_hours%

[turbid tide]

well yeah you have the expansion. but not the mcmmo plugin. that expansion needs to hook into a mcmmo plugin. or at least tries. but since you don't have it, it breaks.

[slim wave]

Ah, ok i'll look into that.

[turbid tide]

expansions are basically extensions in a way. they get data from a place and display it.

[turbid tide]

also I Don't believe that expansion will generate you any deluxemenus menu

[slim wave]

Weird, since it did in a tutorial i saw.

[turbid tide]

well I guess that could work unless you want the time to be in minutes or seconds.

[turbid tide]

mind showing me the tutorial? I might take a look and clear the confusion

[slim wave]

But like, aren't things like head-%player_name% supposed to work regardless of extensions?

Cause those don't work for me either, but they are included in the docs of the DeluxeMenus plugin.

[turbid tide]

well no.

because %player_name% is a palceholder from the Player expansion

if the expansion is not installed or it isn't loaded it won't work

and what happens is that the mcmmo expansion breaks, and it breaks the entire PAPI loader. so all expansions break

[slim wave]

Oh, that explains allot. xd

[turbid tide]

well most of them

[vast ibex]

Well it works since I want a player to rank up after exactly one hour

[slim wave]

The player_name thing was why i tried installing the mcmmo expansion. Apparently a very deceitful tutorial.

[turbid tide]

well then a requirement like this would be ok:

    type: '>='
    input: '%placeholder_for_hours%'
    output: HOURS-REQUIRED```

[turbid tide]

well all you have to do for that is /papi ecloud download player then /papi reload

[vast ibex]

Thank your very much

[slim wave]

Thanks, everything's working now. :)

lol i like u Barry. Fast answear ❤️

[placid light]

ok so i want to grab placeholder of another player, for example someone's %statistic_minutes_played%

like %statistic_minutes_played_{playername}% <- this doesn't exist, i'm giving example what i need

is there a way to get this

so %statistic_minutes_played_clip% will return minutes played of player clip

etc

[turbid tide]

use the parseother expansion

[warm plover]

How could I create a JS placeholder that replaces the players name to a different font? Like Obviouslee goes into оʙᴠɪоᴜꜱʟᴇᴇ

[vivid sparrow]

return BukkitPlayer.getName()
.replace('a', 'replacement')
.replace('A', 'replacement')

and so on

[placid light]

thank you very much

[warm plover]

I'll give it a try ty

[turbid tide]

might want to use replaceAll instead. bcz in javascript replace only replaces the first instance.

or at least the nashorn version does I believe

[warm plover]

ah alright

So I'm not too familiar with JS placeholders, how could I add this? I made the file and everything but it gives an error

https://pastebin.com/CJdpa6UR

[turbid tide]

try OfflinePlayer instead of BukkitPlayer

[warm plover]

Same error, not sure if I put it in wrong

return OfflinePlayer.getName() .replaceAll('a', 'ᴀ') .replaceAll('A', 'ᴀ')

[placid light]

ok so when i do
/papi parse me %parseother_{AltAccount}_{statistic_minutes_played}%
it actually returns value of my own (executor's) %statistic_minutes_played% placeholder

When i do
/papi parse AltAccount %parseother_{AltAccount}_{statistic_minutes_played}%
it returns %statistic_minutes_played% value from AltAccount player

ok so i am not sure but i tested this enough to be sure i'm not crazy

i think ParseOther doesn't work good

ok so i get it

idk who need to parse this, probably a plugin or server, but when you parse it as target me or <someone'sUsername> it'll return value for that placeholder of target no matter what you type in ||%parseother_{||HERE||}_{placeholder}%||

very strange but i managed to use it somehow

[lofty patio]

https://paste.helpch.at/erunesenal.cs

What is wrong ;c

[turbid tide]

@mint fable you know anything about is?

[turbid tide]

well something about ulitmate statistics. not sure what or how to fix. you should probably contact their developer

[mystic blade]

Hello. When i try to download the Deluxetags placeholders from ecloud i get the message: Failed to find expansion named: DeluxeTags

What could be the reason for this?

[turbid tide]

the expansion is not needed anymore. it comes with the plugin

[mystic blade]

Ohh wow. Thank you 😄

[warm plover]

Anything on this

[turbid tide]

you don't need the return if you don't have a function

[warm plover]

I tried to fix it and add the letters, parsing it works but it just shows as an empty space and not my name

https://pastebin.com/JJkk9URz

[turbid tide]

well now you don't call the function at all

add a call at the end of the file name();

[warm plover]

Thanks so much

[mint fable]

so /papi parse me %parseother_{cj89898}_{player_name}% returns your name?

must've accidentally broken it in the recent version as I believe I see the issue

fixed in #ecloud-updates

yes

Hi! Getting this error on my console when trying to use /papi reload after downloading expansions. 😦

https://paste.helpch.at/iluhosevak.bash

[frigid basalt]

how can I get a list of all registered placeholders. I want to replace each of them in an unknown string automatically, but the method PlaceholderAPI.getPlaceholders is deprecated

[vivid sparrow]

PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders

[frigid basalt]

yeah, but I have to get a list of all placeholders available at first

As I don't know which placeholders are used in the messages and if there are even any

[vivid sparrow]

if you call that method, papi will do the work

[frigid basalt]

so, I can just put the entire string in it and the player entity and paper does automatically replace all the available placeholders found?

[vivid sparrow]

yes

[frigid basalt]

okay, thank you!

hi :3 some placeholder to see the name of an item?

Hi, Is there a some sort of static placeholders expansions? I have some same text on my server, used across different plugins. I wanna keep it in a single place, rather than updating every use it of it.

That's easy to code, but, maybe, there's a ready solution?

[turbid tide]

well there's a few: the config expansion is probably the best for this tho

other options would be javascript or the kotlin expanion if you know a bit of any of those languages

(a bit means how to use switches)

[lofty valve]

could you give me a link?

[turbid tide]

you can just download it using /papi ecloud download config then /papi reload

here's the link: https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/config/

[lofty valve]

okay, thanks! does it support nested placeholders, though?

[turbid tide]

I believe it does

Can I use the math expansion in Spigot 1.8.9 or not? I currently use a fork of spigot called Flame Paper and when I try to load Math expansion it says on console:java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: ch/andre601/mathexpansion/depencencies/caffeine/PWAR has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

[tender vapor]

Possible Solution Found:

The plugin (or program) you are trying to use was compiled using a newer Java version than the one you using.
To find what version you need, start from 52 which is Java 8 and for example, 60 is Java 16. (8 + 8 = 16 => 52 + 8 = 60)

Hello, there is a way to get a pre-parsed placeholder?

Yes, there's parseOthets extension

Go to plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions and delete all the BungeeExpansions, then execute a /papi reload. After that redownload the expansion using /papi ecloud download bungee then /papi reload.

Hi, which is the placeholder to put in the command executed from console the name of the player who triggered the item in the menu?

I would like to create a menu with many items of the game modes of my server and when a player clicks it, console executes this (mv tp [player name] [destination world])

But when I put in the command %player_name% the plugin passes it to the console, not the player's name

[tender vapor]

FAQ Answer:

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

try updating the server expansion.

[turbid tide]

what placeholder do you use to display the economy?

[slate pollen]

Uh

[turbid tide]

if it is %vault_eco_balance%, switch to %vault_eco_balance_fixed%

[slate pollen]

Before i used vault eco balance

Then i already switched

Didn't make difference tough

[turbid tide]

I mean this placeholder will return the balance without the decimal part

[slate pollen]

Hmm i did use that

Its only for 1 users tough

[turbid swift]

I just installed the server version I am using, so I am using the latest version. The same goes for the TAB and Placeholderapi plugin. What could be the problem for the I couldn't figure it out.

[tender vapor]

Hey!

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

Barry's Anti Abuse System | v1.4.7

[turbid swift]

im sorry

[turbid tide]

ah. you're using %server_entities% and it is called async

which is a problem

Idk if TAB has an option to call placeholders sync. if it does not I recommend you remove the placeholder

from your TAB

[turbid swift]

I understand of course, but while they work in java8, why not in java17?

i may not use monsters data but how can i show player's kill count?

%statistic_player_kills% this doesn't work either.

When I type %statistic_player_kills% this is exactly what comes up "Unknown statistic 'player_kills', check https://helpch.at/docs./1.17.1/org/bukkit/Statistic.html for more info"

[turbid swift]

I tried the AnimatedScoreBoard plugin instead of TAB, and I got an error there as well.

[strong hemlock]

var job = "%jobsr_user_jobs%";
var color = "%jobsr_chatcolor_" + job + "%";

is there a way to make this work?

the chatcolor placeholder doesn't resolve

(it needs the job name)

[cosmic ibex]

is there a way to get last damage dealt? example just like %player_last_damage% but "dealt" this would be mad helpful

[sharp jay]

You would need another plugin for that @cosmic ibex there may be one out there if you check spigot

[cosmic ibex]

update: could not find one

When i attempt to register an expansion manually:
https://paste.helpch.at/ilelacihux.bash

[austere hawk]

Yeah you can set the placeholder

There’s a guide for it on the js wiki

[west thistle]

ok so, I saw this plugin listed on Apex list of best plugins.
I also read what it's for and figured why not, couldn't hurt to have something that supposedly helps with having things like Essentials and stuff.
However, I'm a bit unclear as to how to actually install the plugin as there doesn't seem to be a jar file and I'm pretty sure a zip file doesn't do anything on Paper/Spigot

[fallen dawn]

%vault_eco_formatted% i dont know it

[vivid sparrow]

what plugin @west thistle

[west thistle]

nevermind. I decided not to bother with trying to figure out how to install placeholder and use it.

[slate pollen]

What

[turbid tide]

there is literally 0 things you have to bother with. you go to https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/placeholderapi.6245/, press the download button, put the jar in your plugins folder and restart the server. just like with most other plugins.

[turbid tide]

that says that you have the essentials expansion but not the essentials plugin but the expansion tries to hook into the plugin. I'd recommend you go to plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions and remove the EssentialsExpansion then do a papi reload or a server restart.

[turbid tide]

if you use the nashorn engine you could do something like this: js var job = "%jobsr_user_jobs%"; var color = PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders(OfflinePlayer, "%" + "jobsr_chatcolor_" + job + "%");

having the % alone without the jobsr_... part is important as well.

[eager kiln]

The player and server expansions are also throwing similar errors

Does the animations extension not work?

I can't get it to do the colors or any animations. It just says the text that I put (forgot exactly what it was but it was inside <>). No moving text or anything like that. Thank yoU!

[vocal folio]

Why doesn't HEX work? 1.18.1

I tried these placeholders:
/papi parse me %animations_<rainbow smooth=true>Old chat colors</rainbow>%
/papi parse me %animations_<rainbow smooth>Old chat colors</rainbow>%
https://i.imgur.com/CBa2koB.png

[vivid sparrow]

I think that rainbow will return a different color every time you parse the placeholder

Meaning that you have to set the refresh rate on your scoreboard

[vocal folio]

Yes, but it returns the old colors, although the Wiki states that it supports HEX if you add the smooth option

[inner nest]

I am using your plugin PlaceholderAPI to display the stages & names of my Quests on another plugin called AnimatedScoreBoard

I have tried figuring out if there was an issue with the other plugins (Quests/AnimatedScoreBoard) or if I had missing permissions. But everything seems to check out & permissions are also good.

The quest log WORKS. But the problem is that it only seems to update the "Objectives:" description if I have admin/op rights.

Example:

WITH OP/ADMIN, while I advance stages:
Start of Quest: https://prnt.sc/26o7bx7 --------->>>> Next stage of quest: https://prnt.sc/26o7c8w (Text works like intended)
**
WITHOUT OP/ADMIN,** while I advance stages:
Start of Quest: https://prnt.sc/26o7bx7 --------->>>> Next stage of quest: https://prnt.sc/26o7de3 (Text does not work like intended)

I think the scoreboard does not force an update when the user is not OP. Do you know of anything that might cause this or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

[stone edge]

This is placeholderapi support, i don't think they might be able to "fix" that as the issue belongs to the quest plugin which adds the placeholder (or maybe scoreboard not updating the value bc of high update interval)

[inner nest]

I don't think its placeholderAPI either but the other developers says its likely not related to their plugin

So everyone is just shifting blame 😛

Well I have a problem with the Placeholder API, I'm using a plugin to create commands, and it supports the PlaceholderAPI, I created a /server command to show information such as players on and the like, I gave /papi ecloud download Server, it downloaded normally, but I gave /papi ecloud download MVDW and it downloaded normally, hooked it up here, but when I put the placeholder in the chat, it doesn't appear. looks like this: Check it out below!

Now that I've seen it, I can't send a print, but the placeholders that contain %% work, but the ones I want to use are the MVDW's, they're in {} and they're not going, even though I put them in %%, if someone can tell me help, please call me in my private, and I'll send prints, thanks for your attention!

[mint fable]

modifiers are required

I could make it return all the info ig

sort of hard to sort through, but 🤷‍♂️

[mint fable]

I also messed up the version number

[mint fable]

Now updated to return all values if no modifiers are used

#ecloud-updates

[jaunty zephyr]

O, thank you!

Does it return all the checkitem modifiers on the item?

[mint fable]

if they exist

so by default, material, amount, and data will get returned

You can filter it out via regex easily as I added prefixes

mat:STONE amt:5 data:0

[jaunty zephyr]

How do I use the checkitem NBT parsing to check for Damage on an item?

None of my attempts with NBT ints and strings worked before

[mint fable]

how much damage the item does?

checkitem nbt is only custom tags

like CustomModelData

[sand junco]

NBTInt damage = this.nbt.getTagOfTypeOrNull("Damage", NBTInt.class);

I'm taking the literal interpretation of "Damage" here

[mint fable]

@jaunty zephyr ?

[jaunty zephyr]

Sorry, I should have specified how much damage the item has taken durability wise

[tender vapor]

Hey!

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

Barry's Anti Abuse System | v1.4.7

[jaunty zephyr]

Since that is technically an NBT tag

[mint fable]

that would be data

actually it falls under data and nbt tag Damage

#ecloud-updates @jaunty zephyr

[jaunty zephyr]

Ty

[mint fable]

notice the lowercase nbt now

[tight veldt]

Help!

Possible Solution Found:

The plugin (or program) you are trying to use was compiled using a newer Java version than the one you using.
To find what version you need, start from 52 which is Java 8 and for example, 60 is Java 16. (8 + 8 = 16 => 52 + 8 = 60)

Barry's solution finder is still in BETA and will make mistakes.

Hi, is there any expansion to return whether something is number or text

[lament verge]

Hey, I wanted to know if it was possible to give an item with a glowing effect (with checkitem)

[stone thorn]

Hey, can someone explain me the _math function

math_(%playerpoints_points%)>=(2500)% it says missing argument which is alright

but I only need to see if its the same or greater than, so not sure

[lethal basin]

use js for comparing

[turbid tide]

not required. the math expansion uses EvalEx which supports a lot of stuff including comparison

[lethal basin]

my bad then

[turbid tide]

%math_{playerpoints_points}>=2500%

[turbid tide]

all good. not a lot of people know that.

its actually not even mentioned anywhere. it just mentions it uses EvalEx and gives a link to it.

[quaint meadow]

hey there ive attempted to run papi ecloud download vault

and papi reload

it dosnt actually register it

https://paste.helpch.at/nilecatahu

this is my papi dumb if anyone needs it

[junior musk]

do you get an error in console when you do /papi reload?

[quaint meadow]

no

[junior musk]

I think the expansion requires an economy plugin to be loaded

make sure you have one registered in /vault-info

[quaint meadow]

interesting interesting

[lament verge]

Hey, I wanted to know if it was possible to give an item with a glowing effect (with checkitem)
papi parse %player_name% %checkitem_give_mat:phantom_membrane%

[quaint meadow]

its a null for econy

[junior musk]

then why do you need the Vault Expansion? 🤔

[quaint meadow]

for venturechat

[junior musk]

what do is require?

I mean, what do you want to show?

[quaint meadow]

i am currently running and manging a waterfall networ

[turbid tide]

@quaint meadow you have 2 vault expansions. delete them both, run /papi reload then run the download command once and the reload again

[quaint meadow]

kk

[turbid tide]

I assume you'd have to enchant it. that's the only way to make an item glow in minecraft. and not even sure if you can make a membrane glow. there's items that can't glow at all. example: player heads, chests

[junior musk]

oh true, but still why would you need the vault expansion ? since you've got no economy plugin, there's not really a point 🤔

[quaint meadow]

ventruechat requirements

[junior musk]

it just requires the plugin

not the PAPI expansion

[turbid tide]

ugh. vault is also for ranks tho?

[lament verge]

It is possible to enchant it but I would like to hide the enchantment to make it glow

[junior musk]

yeah but I don't see any in his PAPI dump

[quaint meadow]

well uh in their docs / plugin info it states i need to install papi vault

[turbid tide]

not sure you can add item flags with checkitem.

[junior musk]

that is if you want to display money / ranks

I guess

[lament verge]

No solution ?

[junior musk]

yeah

that just for placeholders

[quaint meadow]

dosnt work for some reason

[junior musk]

but are you using the Vault placeholders?

if you don't, then you don't need the expansion

[quaint meadow]

wait so papi isnt the reason the plugin aint

loading

what

[smoky spoke]

i need help from the changeoutput dev

the placeholder breaks if i attempt to use {player_name} when the player has an underscore in the name

[warm topaz]

im aware of this issue

will find some time to fix it eventually

for now id recommend converting ur placeholder into a javascript placeholder

[smoky spoke]

is it possible to convert all of the %player_name% placeholders into a javascript placeholder?

[warm topaz]

what is ur entire changeoutput placeholder

[smoky spoke]

%changeoutput_<_{mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_003_003}_6_mycmd-runas {player_name} /system-iron-shard-formed-to-iron-ingot_%

im using {player_name}

that's not the 1st version as i thought using mycommand would somehow fix something

[warm topaz]

function smth() {
  var profession = parseInt("%mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_003_003%")
  if (profession < 6) {
    return "mycmd-runas %player_name% /system-iron-shard-formed-to-iron-ingot"
  }
  return ""
}
smth()```
that might work idk, u just need to put this into a js file with the js expansion

[smoky spoke]

just asking, what's the estimate time for the ign underscore fix before i go through all of the placeholders that needs revamps?

no rush

[warm topaz]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

its a lot more complicated than expected, i have an idea of how to fix, but i just need to figure out how to actually to do it
ill take another look at it soon

[smoky spoke]

most notably %checkitem_inhand,nbtints:Damage=586%

where 586 is the damage of the tool

Just says no even though it should be saying yes

[mint fable]

Does it return that in getinfo?

You might have to specify a material

[jaunty zephyr]

Get info returns INTEGER:Damage:586 I believe

Also wdym specify a material

[zinc wren]

Can enyone help me pls???

pls

the %luckperms_prefix%

dont work

[mint fable]

specify a material you're looking for

Also are you on the latest version @jaunty zephyr ? 2.5.2

if you used /papi ecloud download checkitem it sometimes takes a while after I upload it

[mint fable]

you shouldn't need to though... test to see if it works for some reason

[jaunty zephyr]

I am on 2.5.2

also my end goal requires it to not have a material check, but that would be weird if it does require it

%checkitem_inhand,mat:DIAMOND_AXE,nbtints:Damage=586%

Tried this and it still doesn't work

I see what you mean about data being 586 though

[brazen dragon]

Hi I've got a problem with world time %world_time_my_world% will not return any time. Seems to be a problem with the _ in the world name. Worlds without _ in the name work fine.

[sharp jay]

@brazen dragon mind screenshotting exactly what it displays?

[brazen dragon]

It's empty. Nothing.

[wide reef]

looks like the issue has been around since atleast august 10th

the issue is with how args are parsed,
String[] args = params.split("_");
this would split world_nether into 2 seperate args which would cause an issue cause how getWorld works is that it gets the arg length -1, which would then get the world called nether.

a fix for this could be to change how the args are parsed or use a loop to piece the worldname back together

[mint fable]

I'll lyk when I take a look

does it work if you do data:586 though?

[jaunty zephyr]

Yes

Not sure why data is the damage value but

[mint fable]

always has been

like, before Damage was a thing

it was data

and it still is data 😂

[jaunty zephyr]

Strange

So does that mean data for all blocks defaults to 0?

[golden cloud]

Anyone :>

[mint fable]

yep

[jaunty zephyr]

Interesting

[mint fable]

items that weren't damageable used to use data to store different types

like all logs were just log:0 log:1 log:2 log:3

the number being the data

Hello friends, well, first I'm using Google translator, so if you have any spelling mistakes, you know why.
Well I have a problem with the Placeholder API, I'm using a plugin to create commands, and it supports the PlaceholderAPI, I created a /server command to show information such as players on and the like, I gave /papi ecloud download Server, it downloaded normally, but I gave /papi ecloud download MVDW and it downloaded normally, hooked it up here, but when I put the placeholder in the chat, it doesn't appear. looks like this: Check it out below!

I talked to the plugin developer and he said that the problem is in the papi or placeholderapi.

https://imgur.com/a/a61ExBg

I've tried several ways and I didn't get any.

[sharp jay]

You dont need MVDW

what placeholders arent working

[severe wharf]

https://imgur.com/a/xjh9vay

[sharp jay]

what extension is it??

did you install it

because each placeholder is depended on its extension

expansion*

this is how you use it

[severe wharf]

link me that page

[severe wharf]

I'm trying to use this site from this

[sharp jay]

is that MVDW

[severe wharf]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/mvdw-placeholders/

[sharp jay]

once again that plugin needs to support MVDW

[severe wharf]

I'm getting these placeholders and I try to use.

[sharp jay]

This server is for placeholderapi

[severe wharf]

So, it supports placeholderapi, all api placeholders with %% work, as long as I download it from papi ecloud donwload, now those from the MVDW that is from the site I sent you don't work

[sharp jay]

What plugin are you trying to put that CPU placeholder?

[severe wharf]

I don't have any plugin to check the CPU
I'm trying to pull the CPU through the placeholder

[sharp jay]

First did you type

/papi ecloud download MVdW
/papi reload

then did you use %mvdw_cpu_architect%

do you also have MVDW placeholders installed(the plugin)

[severe wharf]

Alright, I'll try and send prints.

[severe wharf]

Yes

not papi

use == to compare numbers

[smoky spoke]

aight ty for the extra info

[mint fable]

if you want to return that, you just put return profession

and also you technically don't need to surround the 4 in quotes either

if you returned a number it gets converted to a string either way

[smoky spoke]

how do i make it return an int value instead of a double value

[mint fable]

didn't you parseInt?

it should already be returning the whole number (int)

[smoky spoke]

dunno. here's my script

function smth() {
  var profession = parseInt("%math_({mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_001_001}>=33)+({mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_001_002}>=33)+({mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_001_003}>=9)+({mmocore_profession_experience_QUEST_001_004}>=161)%")
  if (profession >= 4) {
    return "4"
  }
  return profession
}
smth()```
imma try doing it again with a simple math equation

function smth() {
  var profession = parseInt("%math_0_1+1%")
  if (profession >= 4) {
    return "4"
  }
  return profession
}
smth()

it returned 2.0

[mint fable]

tf

okay... maybe try turning it to a string?

profession+""

[smoky spoke]

in the bottom return part?

[mint fable]

makes no sense

ye

how were you testing it

so weird but I'm not a javascript professional so

yes

anyone know how i can get the luckperms/vault prefix with the color code stripped from it, please ping if you respond

[austere hawk]

Hello, I use %math_0_10000000-{vault_eco_balance_fixed}% to give the missing money to the player, I would like to know if instead of having 10000000, have: 10,000,000 (with commas)? thank you

[celest heath]

Try using vault_eco_balance_commas instead of vault_eco_balance_fixed

[celest heath]

Try using luckperms meta feature. You can assign a rank with a meta value and have it shown through the luckperms meta placeholder.

[austere hawk]

Doesn't work, it returns me %math_0_10000000-{vault_eco_balance_commas}%

[topaz lava]

does the player expansion not support hex colored displaynames?

[eager phoenix]

Hey there.
I have a problem while requesting a cutsom placeholder

switch (param) { case "durability": if (player.getInventory().getBoots() != null && player.getInventory().getBoots().getType() != Material.AIR) { NBTItem boots = new NBTItem(player.getInventory().getBoots()); int durability = boots.getInteger("currentDurability"); return String.valueOf(durability); } return player.getName();

The player has boots and the obv. the type isnt air either.

But it still wont send back durability but the player name instead.

[mint fable]

probably gonna stick with nothing because it's consistent for all modifiers

you can probably use changeoutput if you wanted to switch it to false though

or js

[eager phoenix]

hello? :c

[novel moss]

yeah i didnt mind it funny i actually needed your placeholder in a js but idk i just feel it looks cleaner if its true/false

[eager phoenix]

Anyone around?

[mint fable]

might get more help in #development

[mint fable]

but obviously one of your statements is false

[eager phoenix]

but i dont get it

i changed it to be boots are not null

and it still returns loading instead of the desired value

        lore:
        - ''
        - '&6■ &fRank: &e#1'
        - '&6■ &fBalance: &a%vault_eco_top_balance_formatted_1%'
        - ''
        - '&a» &fYour Balance: &a%vault_eco_balance% «'``` currently have this as a baltop, and its not showing the top balance player or bal its a placeholder in the menu it self

[turbid tide]

That's bcz the baltop placeholders are being phased out of the vault expansion. You should be using the development build of the essentials expansion for this.

see pinned messages for download and placeholder list

[nova fjord]

Is there a way to ping your localhost server with the Pinger placeholder expasion?

[keen portal]

Yo, is there an absorption hp placeholder?
I found this commit https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Player-Expansion/commit/14993335830a11d75dd4716f113580033d6c0159 but the placeholder it's not in the player expansion

[vivid sparrow]

Yeah, looks like I forgot to publish the update

[keen portal]

oh alright

[upper zinc]

i cant get the playertime placeholder to work... i doublechecked if it was the right placeholder and that i installed the right one, but i did and it still won't work

it just shows %playertime_time_hours%

[sharp jay]

and you ran this /papi ecloud download playertime
/papi reload

[upper zinc]

i did run this

it still shows %playertime_time_hours%

any idea on how to fix it ?

the wiki says its called PlayTime not PlayerTime

please?

[wet basin]

[mint fable]

[mint fable]

If you want to use placeholders IN your plugin, then yes

[mint fable]

ya, whatever IDE you use should sort that out

but that's just an example of how to use it

that's an example plugin class

[zealous shadow]

heh heh i dont use an ide... i just use notepad++ cause i dont code most of the plugin

[mint fable]

I have no words

[zealous shadow]
