chat message place holder

hi

i have a plugin that has a string that it wants to put in players' chat messages.

in essentials chat config, i have added {mystringplaceholder} and i want to replace it with a string

how do i do this


its exactly like plugins such as factions

 

Code:java

getConfig().getString("path.to.string").replace("{PLAYERNAME}", p.getName());

Now remember robrobk this is just some quick code, make sure to replace the variables with your own so it fits your code.

 

what i mean is
player sends a chat message
essentials intercepts it and changes it to include the placeholder
my plugin intercepts it and replaces the placeholder with my string

 

Onplayerchat on the highest priority

 

Listen for the chat event, hook into essentials to see it the message contains the place holder, if it does replace the place holder with your string via config.

In you chat event just do something like if(e.get message().contains(placeholder)) do somthing
