Message placeholders are a core functionality of CFTools Cloud allowing you to add dynamic values to all messages sent.
To use message placeholders you open the configuration of any module that supports them and type {{ PLACEHOLDER}} in place of where a dynamic value should be.
Below you will find a list with all available message placeholders. Note, some are only available in certain games or if you run additional plugins.
