%player_displayname% has incorrect replacement about placeholderapi HOT 5 CLOSED

Where did you set the nickname?

@randombyte-developer This was set using the /nick command provided by Nucleus. I've attached a screenshot to show the output of /lp verbose to confirm this.

Maybe https://ore.spongepowered.org/dualspiral/Nucleus-Gluon helps?

I've installed Gluon, but as I'd expected, I didn't think it would work. Gluon allows you to use PlaceholderAPI replacements in Nucleus and adds Nucleus replacements to PlaceholderAPI. However, I do believe that %player_displayname% gets the display name component from Sponge or perhaps even the underlying Minecraft (forge) server. Nucleus just exposes a command to be able to configure your nickname.

Upon joining the server, chatted to show I have a nickname set and ran the /papi parse command. You can see the output of this below:

So using the placeholder %nucleus_displayname% works, though this has a bit of a design smell imho. I'm following up with the Nucleus team now to find out why they're not passing this data through the %player_displayname% replacement and instead building in their own and having you use a bridge plugin to support it.

I'll go ahead and close this issue for now, since there is a viable work-around.
