Placeholders

Placeholders Guide

Elite Holograms features a powerful built-in placeholder system that allows you to display dynamic information in your holograms. These placeholders are automatically processed and updated in real-time. No external placeholder API is required.

How to Use Placeholders

Simply include the placeholder tag (e.g., %player%) within the text when creating or editing a hologram line. The mod will replace the tag with the corresponding current value.

Example: /eh addline server_stats Players Online: %players%/%maxplayers%

Color Codes & Formatting

You can use standard Minecraft color codes (e.g., &a, &l, &n) in conjunction with placeholders to style your hologram text.

Example: /eh setline welcome 1 &eWelcome, &b&l%player%&e!

This would display the player's name in bold aqua, with yellow text around it.
