Nexal Leaderboards

Track any PlaceholderAPI stat as a leaderboard with GUI, holograms, and auto-refresh.

Utilityleaderboardsplaceholderapihologramsrankingsstatisticsgui

Features

Auto-Track Any Placeholder: Query any numeric PlaceholderAPI placeholder once and it automatically starts tracking. No manual configuration needed.
Live Paginated GUI: Beautiful GUI browser with player heads, real-time auto-refresh, and unlimited pages for viewing rankings.
Performance-Tuned Refresh: Set per-leaderboard refresh intervals to balance data freshness with server load. Default 5-minute cycles prevent unnecessary overhead.
Three Display Formats: Every rank gives the player name, the raw value and the formatted value (1,234,567) for scoreboards, tab lists, signs and holograms.
Universal Compatibility: Works with any plugin that provides numeric PlaceholderAPI placeholders: Vault balances, kill stats, playtime, or custom values.
Offline Player Retention: Offline players remain on leaderboards with persistent scores until the next refresh cycle. Rankings stay accurate even when players log off.
Dual JSON/SQL Storage: Full support for both JSON file storage and MySQL database backends with admin export/import commands for easy migration.
Leaderboard Holograms: Place a hologram with the top 1 to 20 of any leaderboard. It redraws after every refresh and needs no hologram plugin.

Changelog

v1.0.3Latest2026-10-11

Add holograms: /lb admin hologram create places the top 1 to 20 of a leaderboard where you stand, redrawn after every refresh (no hologram plugin needed) Add an admin GUI: /lb admin opens a hub with the settings, every tracked leaderboard (interval, refresh now, remove), the holograms, export and import Fix /lb admin doing nothing; /lb admin help shows the admin commands as text Fix the server lagging on every leaderboard refresh: storage writes now run in the background, and only changed scores are saved Fix lag and errors when TAB or async scoreboards show leaderboard placeholders Auto-tracking and /lb admin track only accept placeholders that give a number for someone online, so typos no longer create empty leaderboards; % signs are stripped Fix /lb top with a count of 0 or less throwing an error; the count must be 1 to 100 Fix /lb player saying "not found" for players in their first session, and no longer look up unknown names with Mojang /lb admin refresh now confirms how many players were ranked /lb admin reload re-reads config.yml and messages.yml and switches storage when storage.type changed, keeping the old storage if the new one cannot be opened Export and import run in the background and include holograms Disable the plugin with a clear error when its storage cannot be opened gui.auto-refresh-ticks is now used by the leaderboard GUI "Never" and "Soon" in /lb info, the refresh interval in the tracking message and all new texts come from messages.yml; missing messages fall back to the bundled defaults Shorter message prefix (Leaderboards |) and a warning colour for removals in the default messages.yml; unused help messages removed Fix values with colour codes being ranked wrong (a gold 1,500 counted as 61,500); a value now counts as its first number Removing a leaderboard also deletes its holograms instead of leaving empty ones behind Players asking for an untracked leaderboard are pointed to /lb list instead of an admin command All /lb gui text (rank names, value lines, page buttons, close) is now customizable in messages.yml Clearer import messages: where the export files were looked for, and a warning when they hold no records The admin hologram list says why it cannot teleport to a hologram whose world is not loaded Fix the help menu not working on Spigot servers Data is saved safely: a crash, power cut or full disk while saving no longer leaves a broken data file
