That is a static photo. I'm not sure what you're actually trying to achieve. Could you give more information?

Are you making your own expansion?
Are you looking for an already existent expansion that does something?
What exactly is the expansion meant to do? Count down? Then you can look at the Server expansion. It has a timer placeholder. That placeholder lets you give it a finish date and time and it will count down until that date and time.

Placeholders can't be "updated". You just have to parse them every time you need the new information. So for timers you can just parse them every second or however often you want to update the timer and you need to make sure the placeholder returns the updated time.

Yes, its a count down. Lets say every 45m it gives you a key then it loops 45 another key then it goes again etc etc.

That's not possible with the server expansion. You'll probably want the plugin you use to give the keys every 45 minutes to add a placeholder that does this. I'd suggest looking into the documentation of the plugin to see if this is possible and if it isn't, request the feature from their developer(s).

The keyall like the thing that gives you the keys is skript the placeholder is just the timer not to give the key

[sick wave]

Well you still can't use the Server expansion for this and I don't know of any placeholders that can do this.

[leaden holly]

Many servers have this placeholder i believe it does exist.

I just need to create a custom placeholder.

[sick wave]

It could just be custom built.

[leaden holly]

Oh I thought it was a placeholder

[sick wave]

Well you can build custom placeholders. Either using java or using an expansion like Javascript which lets you create them using javascript

can i can make it a timer? or countdown

[shut anvil]

You can make the placeholder whatever you want it to be

Since it would be fully custom from a plugin (or javascript as blitz said)
