ForgePlaceholderAPI allows for mods/plugins to display data In things such as menus designed In ForgeMenus. This merely serves as the bridge to facilitate the data exchange.
Head over to releases and grab the version that corresponds to the Minecraft server you are running:
For 1.12.2 - ForgePlaceholderAPI-Forge-x.x.x-1.12.2.jar
For 1.16.5 - ForgePlaceholderAPI-Forge-x.x.x-1.16.5.jar
Install this Into your /mods folder.
Once you have restarted your server, you will see a new folder In /mods called ForgePlaceholderAPI. This will be used In the next section.
ForgePlaceholderAPI on its own does not do much of anything. ForgePlaceholderAPI makes use of extensions to communicate with other things and facilitate the exchange of relevant data.
Head over to ForgePlaceholderAPI-Extensions to get some addons for this!
