%server_countdown_<SimpleDateFormat>_<time>% not working

[JorisvD01]

Hey, after using this placeholder it keeps showing "invalid time" and spamming this error in de console;

[14:18:02 ERROR]: [PlaceholderAPI] [server] Could not calculate countdown (format: "Value(YearOfEra,4,19,EXCEEDS_PAD)Value(MonthOfYear,2)Value(DayOfMonth,2)", other date: "20240912")

Exact placeholder used: %server_countdown_yyyy.MM.dd_2024.09.04%

Server version: Paper version 1.21-99-master@f1f01a1
PlaceholderAPI version: 2.11.6

Managed to fix this issue by doing two things:

1. Revert to the previous version of the server expansion (/papi ecloud download Server 2.7.1)
2. Add a time to the placeholder (in your case %server_countdown_yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm:ss_2024.09.04 00:00:00%) which will return midnight at the specified time on that date (change accordingly of course)

We've changed the API used for countdown, from Date to LocalDateTime to allow you to set the time zone (e.g. UTC+3) and the local to translate the time to your language. As @samhtm mentioned on the 2nd bullet point, you have to add a time as well.

This is the wrong place to ask for something like this. If you got the same issue, you can get around it by using a datetime with the time, instead of only the date as the example by @samhtm shows above
