Support for specific plugins are provided either by the plugin itself or through expansions. The expansions may be downloaded in-game through the PAPI Expansion Cloud. There are currently over 230+ expansions that support a wide variety of plugins, such as Essentials, Factions, LuckPerms, and Vault. If you're a developer and you want to add support for PlaceholderAPI in your plugin please head to our [API Usage](https://github.com/placeholderapi/placeholderapi/wiki/hook-into-placeholderapi) page for more information. **PlaceholderAPI** has been downloaded over 2,000,000 times and is currently used concurrently on over 50,000 servers, which makes it a must-have for a server of any type or scale. ![Getting Started](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/refs/heads/assets/dark_mode/GETTING_STARTED.png) <center> ![Steps to install](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/refs/heads/assets/dark_mode/STEPS.png) </center> ![Configuration](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/refs/heads/assets/dark_mode/CONFIG.png) The `config.yml` contains the core plugin customization settings as well as a section specifically for expansions that wish to add configurable options too. Any settings an expansion may allow you to change will be added to the `config.yml` when that specific expansion is loaded. ```yaml # PlaceholderAPI # Version: 2.11.4 # Created by: extended_clip # Contributors: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/graphs/contributors # Issues: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/issues # Expansions: https://ecloud.placeholderapi.com/expansions/all/ # Wiki: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki # Discord: https://helpch.at/discord # No placeholders are provided with this plugin by default. # Download placeholders: /papi ecloud check_updates: true cloud_enabled: true cloud_sorting: "name" cloud_allow_unverified_expansions: false boolean: 'true': 'yes' 'false': 'no' date_format: MM/dd/yy HH:mm:ss debug: false ``` ![Permissions](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/refs/heads/assets/dark_mode/PERMISSIONS.png) ```yaml permissions: placeholderapi.*: description: "Ability to use all PAPI commands" children: placeholderapi.admin: true placeholderapi.ecloud.*: true placeholderapi.admin: description: "Ability to use all PAPI commands" children: placeholderapi.help: true placeholderapi.info: true placeholderapi.list: true placeholderapi.parse: true placeholderapi.reload: true placeholderapi.version: true placeholderapi.register: true placeholderapi.unregister: true placeholderapi.updatenotify: true placeholderapi.ecloud.*: description: "Ability to use all PAPI ecloud commands" children: placeholderapi.ecloud: true placeholderapi.ecloud.info: true placeholderapi.ecloud.list: true placeholderapi.ecloud.clear: true placeholderapi.ecloud.status: true placeholderapi.ecloud.update: true placeholderapi.ecloud.refresh: true placeholderapi.ecloud.download: true placeholderapi.ecloud.placeholders: true placeholderapi.help: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view the list of PAPI commands" placeholderapi.info: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view expansion information" placeholderapi.list: default: "op" description: "Allows you to list active expansions" placeholderapi.ecloud: default: "op" description: "Allows you to access PAPI eCloud" placeholderapi.parse: default: "op" description: "Allows you to parse placeholders" placeholderapi.reload: default: "op" description: "Allows you to reload PAPI and its configuration" placeholderapi.version: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view the version of PAPI installed" placeholderapi.register: default: "op" description: "Allows you to register expansions" placeholderapi.unregister: default: "op" description: "Allows you to unregister expansions" placeholderapi.updatenotify: default: "op" description: "Notifies you when there is a PAPI update" placeholderapi.ecloud.info: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view cloud expansion information" placeholderapi.ecloud.list: default: "op" description: "Allows you to list eCloud expansions" placeholderapi.ecloud.clear: default: "op" description: "Allows you to clear the local eCloud expansion cache" placeholderapi.ecloud.status: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view the status of eCloud expansions" placeholderapi.ecloud.update: default: "op" description: "Allows you to update registered eCloud expansions" placeholderapi.ecloud.refresh: default: "op" description: "Allows you to refresh the local eCloud expansion cache" placeholderapi.ecloud.download: default: "op" description: "Allows you to download an expansion from the eCloud" placeholderapi.ecloud.placeholders: default: "op" description: "Allows you to view the placeholders of a eCloud expansion" ``` ![Commands](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/refs/heads/assets/dark_mode/COMMANDS.png) **Parse Commands** `/papi bcparse <player|--null|me> <string>` `/papi cmdparse <player|me> <string>` `/papi parse <player|--null|me> <string>` `/papi parserel <player> <player> <string>` **eCloud Commands** `/papi ecloud status` `/papi ecloud clear` `/papi ecloud download <expansion> [version]` `/papi ecloud update <expansion/all>` `/papi ecloud info <expansion> [version]` `/papi ecloud list <all|<author>|installed> [page]` `/papi ecloud placeholders <expansion>` `/papi ecloud refresh` **Expansion Commands** `/papi info <expansion>` `/papi list` `/papi register <jar file>` `/papi unregister <jar file>` **Utility Commands** `/papi dump` `/papi reload` `/papi version` <center> **Some Useful Links** [Plugins using PAPI](https://wiki.placeholderapi.com/users/plugins-using-placeholderapi/) - [API Usage](https://wiki.placeholderapi.com/developers/using-placeholderapi/) - [Placeholder List](https://wiki.placeholderapi.com/users/placeholder-list/) - [Wiki](https://wiki.placeholderapi.com/) If you enjoy this **completely free** and **powerful** resource, please be kind enough to leave a like and review!

This is a smaller update providing some bugfixes and improvements. ## Notable changes ### Fixed Version parsing [[#1227](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1227)] Paper changed how their version is structured in their latest 26.2 experimental builds, which in turn broke the existing version parsing of PlaceholderAPI that is used for things such as the VersionSpecific interface. As a reminder we recommend not to rely on, nor use these interfaces, as they can break further in the future. ### Make setPlaceholders consistent with setRelationalPlaceholders [[#1178](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1178)] Normal and relational placeholders had an inconsistent behaviour where the former would work with just the identifier, while the later did not. This was now changed to make normal placeholders be more in line with relational ones by requiring an underscore after the identifier to be considered valid. ### Support deserializing strings into components [[#1188](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1188)] > [NOTE] > This only applies to the Paper version of PAPI supporting Components! Previously, parsing methods for components always return a TextComponent with the parsed String. This was limiting on how much could be done with the actual text. A new `setPlaceholders` method with an optional `Function<String, ComponentLike>` argument has been added. This method allows you to define a function to convert the parsed String into a ComponentLike, which can be useful for situations like parsing MiniMessage tags returned by the placeholder, which would've otherwise been ignored. ## Full Changelog ### Other changes * Update Common Issues page link in issue-template by @Andre601 in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1089 * Make setPlaceholders behavior consistent with setRelationalPlaceholders by @BlitzOffline in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1178 * Refactor CharsReplacer & PlaceholderAPI for better performance and reduced memory allocation by @ichoco-milk in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1163 * PAPIComponents Deserializer Support by @BitByLogics in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1188 * Feat/new chars replacer by @PiggyPiglet in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1205 * fix(parsing): adjust parsing to support paper dev builds better by @darbyjack in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1227 * fix(logging): improve local expansion failure diagnostics by @darbyjack in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1235 ## New Contributors * @ichoco-milk made their first contribution in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1163 * @BitByLogics made their first contribution in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1188 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/compare/2.12.2...2.12.3

This update introduces support for Adventure Components! It also includes several security improvements, a new eCloud URL, and other quality of life enhancements. ## Components support [[#1157](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1157)] PlaceholderAPI can now parse placeholders in Kyori Adventure Components. Default implementation uses a custom built recursive replacer for components which will go through the entire component tree, including all styles (hover/click events), and even NBT/data components. If you have any issues with replacement however, you can switch to the one built into adventure via a config option `use_adventure_provided_replacer`. A new class called `PAPIComponents` is available for use in the API. Just a warning if you try use this class on a spigot server, the plugin will error at start, this class should only be used on paper or derivatives of it. ## Security updates ### Expansion Jar Hash check PlaceholderAPI now checks downloaded expansion hashes at start and reload against a list of known malicious expansions. The server will be forcibly stopped and the malicious jars logged in console. ### Per-version verification The eCloud received per-version expansion verification as part of a major overhaul, and PlaceholderAPI was updated to support this change. From now on, expansion versions are verified individually and just like with verified expansions before, PlaceholderAPI only allows for downloading verified versions via the `/papi ecloud` commands. ### Note for Server Hosts We've begun migrating from `api.extendedclip.com` to the `*.placeholderapi.com` domain. You may need to update your whitelist if users encounter any related connection errors. The new eCloud can be found at https://ecloud.placeholderapi.com Note that starting with this version, PlaceholderAPI will begin using the new domain. ## Blocked eCloud We've noticed an increasing number of users having connection troubles to the eCloud due to censorship restrictions imposed by their firewall, server host, isp or country. We've added a more helpful error message in game and in console to help users find alternative ways to use the eCloud. ## Bug Fixes / Minor Changes * Changed updater URL to use PAPI's primary distribution platform * Check for permissions on all tab to complete * Show expansion version when hovering over an expansion in `/papi ecloud list` ## Hytale PlaceholderAPI is now also on Hytale! If you're running a Hytale server or are developing mods, have a look at https://placeholderapi.com/download or our wiki to get more information. **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/compare/2.11.7...2.12.1

After a long wait and countless requests, including multiple pull requests to implement it - PlaceholderAPI is finally able to support Folia! Additionally there has been some smaller code improvements, including updating the NMSVersion enum to include the latest 1.21.x versions. ## Folia Support [[#1127](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1127)] Folia support has been added, allowing PlaceholderAPI to run on Folia based servers without scheduler related issues. While we’ve tested the core functionality, we haven’t been able to verify every expansion, so some edge cases may still exist. If you encounter any bugs, please report them so we can investigate and resolve them. ## NMSVersion updates The NMSVersion enum has been updated to support the latest 1.21.x versions up to and including 1.21.10 for expansions that depend on this. ## Full Changelog ### Other changes * feat: initial work on 1.21 by @darbyjack in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1067 * Added missing NotNull annotations to setBracketPlaceholders methods by @mfnalex in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1000 * Revert api links by @Funny-cube in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1098 * fix for all expansions stop loading after an exception is thrown (#1094) by @Kqliber in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1095 * Merge UniversalScheduler (Folia Support) #980 by @PiggyPiglet in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1127 ## New Contributors * @mfnalex made their first contribution in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1000 * @Anon8281 made their first contribution in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/980 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/compare/2.11.6...2.11.7

This update brings 1.20.6 support but also some important changes to developers to keep in mind. Most notably a deprecation. ## Deprecated Version class [#1035] The `Version` class in PlaceholderAPI has been deprecated. The reasons were many with the primary one being that there are various other ways to find out what server version is used to ensure your expansion is compatible with it. While the class still works, can there be minor changes in how the version is being displayed, due to changes on how PlaceholderAPI fetches the server version. It is recommended to switch to alternative methods as soon as possible, as we won't guarantee this class to remain working for the forseeable future. ## Parse Command Improvement Fixed the parse command showing the wrong command in the "You must provide a target and message" response for the "cmdparse" type. Also added the ability to use "me" in both the first and second player for parserel. ## New Wiki In case you haven't seen it yet, the PlaceholderAPI wiki has been moved. While the old wiki at GitHub served us well was it lacking ways of customizing it. The new location allows us higher customization and organization of the wiki alongside other beneficial changes. You can find the new Wiki at https://wiki.placeholderapi.com Just like the old one can you contribute to it by PRing changes to the [`wiki` branch](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/tree/wiki)! ## What's Changed ### Other changes * Add Hangar and BuiltByBit pages to readme by @Andre601 in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1006 * Update config.yml with papi domain for wiki and ecloud by @Funny-cube in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1038 * Use the OfflinePlayer$getPlayer method instead of casting to Player class by @DevCyntrix in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1040 * Add Plugin Authors to /papi dump by @Andre601 in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1046 ## New Contributors * @DevCyntrix made their first contribution in https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/pull/1040 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/compare/2.11.5...2.11.6
