## PlaceholderAPI is posting an error about an outdated expansion?
```
[00:00:01 ERROR]: [PlaceholderAPI] Failed to load Expansion class <expansion> (Is a dependency missing?)
[00:00:01 ERROR]: [PlaceholderAPI] Cause: NoClassDefFoundError <path>
```
If you receive the above error, try to do the following steps:
- Make sure any required dependency of the mentioned expansion (e.g. a plugin) is installed.
- Make sure you use the latest version supported for the server version you use.
- If you downloaded the jar from the ecloud, make sure it isn't malformed/corrupted.
If the issue persists after you've done those checks, report it to the author of the expansion.
In most cases is the issue that either a dependency is missing or that the expansion tries to use outdated methods from PlaceholderAPI.
