PlaceholderAPI Placeholders

Dynamic content and custom GUIPlus placeholders

---

GUIPlus integrates with PlaceholderAPI to provide dynamic content in GUIs and registers its own custom placeholders.

📝 Using Placeholders in GUIs

PlaceholderAPI placeholders can be used in nearly every text field:

• Item display names

• Item lore lines

• Click event parameters (commands, messages, amounts)

• Condition values

• Skull textures

• Chat fetcher messages

Example: Dynamic Lore

item-name: §6%player_name%'s Profile
item-lore:
  - ''
  - §7Balance: §a$%vault_eco_balance_formatted%
  - §7Level: §e%player_level%
  - §7Health: §c%player_health%
  - ''
  - §7Bank: §b$%GUIPlus_player_info_deposited%

Lore lines containing placeholders are updated automatically while the GUI is open (every 20 ticks / 1 second).

🔗 GUIPlus Custom Placeholders

GUIPlus registers the following custom placeholders under the identifier GUIPlus:

Placeholder	Description	Example
%GUIPlus_player_info_<field>%	Returns a stored player data field value	%GUIPlus_player_info_kills% → 25
%GUIPlus_gui_exist_<id>%	Returns true or false if a GUI with the given ID exists	%GUIPlus_gui_exist_bank% → true
%GUIPlus_gui_title_<id>%	Returns the title of the specified GUI	%GUIPlus_gui_title_bank% → §ePersonal Bank

%GUIPlus_gui_type_<id>%	Returns the inventory type of the specified GUI	%GUIPlus_gui_type_bank% → CHEST
%GUIPlus_gui_scenes_<id>%	Returns the number of scenes in the specified GUI	%GUIPlus_gui_scenes_bank% → 1
%GUIPlus_self_base64%	Returns the player's skin texture as a Base64 string (for skull items)	Used in skullBase64 field

💾 Player Info Placeholder

The %GUIPlus_player_info_<field>% placeholder is the most commonly used GUIPlus placeholder. It retrieves data saved via the Save Player Info click event.

# Saving a value
click-events:
  save-player-info:
    save-format: coins:100

# Displaying it in lore
item-lore:
  - §7Your coins: §e%GUIPlus_player_info_coins%

If the field has not been set for a player, the placeholder returns the string null.

See Player Data for full details on saving and retrieving data.
