Hello!

Sorry for the inaccurate information but I was getting pretty tired.
The placeholder doesn't work in TAB or anywhere else.

Hi, no idea what's the issue there, no one else reported such, and I couldn't replicate your problem with any settings. Was it working before?

[HonzasikCZ]

For a while I noticed that it was working on the lobby but it's not working there now..I just put the plugins on the server and tried it...Now it's not working on the lobby but it's working on the other server where it wasn't working before 😭

I have the same problem, I use placeholders to make a top 10 with DiscordSRV.
It worked for a while btw.

I've already tried with PRELOAD_PLACEHOLDERS set to false/true, cache set to false/true, and different cache values as well.
I could try using a different database method.

edit:
Anyway, after a restart (proxy and server) and waiting a few minutes, the placeholder started displaying correctly again.
Not sure why, but I'll try changing the database method to test.

Its because some People are Using Tab as Velocity Plugin like myself so there should be 2 Options.

1. Make the Placeholder Working when Plugin is loaded as Velocity Plugin
2. Add a Extention for PapiPlaceholder's ecloudsystem
