Placeholders

Velocitab supports a number of Placeholders that will be replaced with their respective proper values in-game. In addition to the set of provided default Placeholders, you can make use of PlaceholderAPI and MiniPlaceholder-provided placeholders through special hooks.

Default placeholders

Placeholders can be included in the header, footer and player name format of the TAB list. The following placeholders are supported out of the box:

PlaceholderAPI support

To use PlaceholderAPI placeholders in Velocitab, install the PAPIProxyBridge library plugin on your Velocity proxy and all Minecraft spigot servers on your network, and ensure the PAPI hook option is enabled in your Velocitab Config File. You can then include PAPI placeholders in your foramts as you would any of the default placeholders.

MiniPlaceholders support

If you are using MiniMessage Formatting, you can use MiniPlaceholders with Velocitab for MiniMessage-styled component placeholders provided by other proxy plugins. Install MiniPlaceholders on your Velocity proxy, set the formatter_type to MINIMESSAGE and ensure enable_miniplaceholders_hook is set to true
