No rainbow color when PlaceholderAPI placeholder returns color "&u" #257

Just making sure

Reproduction

  1. Install DecentHolograms and PlaceholderAPI
  2. Register a placeholder that returns text "&uplain text"
  3. Add a line with that text
  4. We see "&uplain text" not rainbowed, while just adding "&uplain text" adds rainbow line

Solution

Try to find a rainbow text after placeholder return

Pretty sure it isn't really a bug, but just how the plugin works.

And it would be difficult, if not impossible to "fix". DH would need to know about the final content it displays and if it actually changes at all to determine what state the rainbow is currently in... A rather resource intense thing to have for barely any gain.

If you want rainbow text, use it outside the placeholder itself.

Therefore you can synchronize all rainbow colors between holograms so &u will return exact color at some given time
