Overview

Placeholders allow you to display data from PlotSquared in other plugins. For example with FeatherBoard you can create a scoreboard (sideboard) with the info about the plot you're standing on.

Furthermore, PlotSquared support placeholders from other plugins too.

How to use placeholders

PlotSquared has explicit and official support for PlaceholderAPI and MVdWPlaceholderAPI.

Warn: For the PlotSquared placeholders you don't need to download an PAPI expansion. As opposed to some other plugins, PlotSquared handles everything internally.

Tips for using placeholders in other plugins

Chat-System

If you're using EssentialsChat and PlaceholderAPI, you must install ChatInjector in order for the placeholders to show up in the chat. However, please note it has been reported that ChatInjector might cause issues.

We recommend you to use an alternative chat plugin which supports PlaceholderAPI, such as DeluxeChat.

Use PlaceholderAPI placeholders in PlotSquared

PlotSquared messages and flags support PlaceholderAPI placeholders. The only requirement is that PlaceholderAPI is installed on the server.

As an example, using /plot flag set greeting Welcome %player_name% will send the message "Welcome Steve" when the player Steve enters a plot.

A list of available placeholders can be found here.

Tip: This feature can be completely disabled in settings.yml.
