Placeholders

SkinEngine supports PlaceholderAPI in its translated text and also exposes its own PlaceholderAPI expansion.

PlaceholderAPI inside SkinEngine configs

If PlaceholderAPI is installed, SkinEngine resolves placeholders in:

  • translated messages
  • translated GUI text
  • text that uses PlaceholderAPI values from other installed plugins

Relevant files:

  • translations/<language>/messages.yml
  • translations/<language>/guis.yml
