- Go to the rank/group you want to customize in LuckPerms
- Add the permission "stl.format"
- Edit the permission value to: "stl.format.%luckperms_prefix% &f[player_name] %luckperms_suffix%"
- Ensure PlaceholderAPI and LuckPerms ecloud expansion are installed
- Save changes
Using PlaceholderAPI
- Install placeholder expansions with `/papi ecloud download <expansion>`
- Reload PlaceholderAPI with `/papi reload`
- Use the placeholders in your config
