Solved String replace

Hello!

I'm trying to get %PLAYERNAME% out of a string and replace it for a players name. I used .replace("%PLAYERNAME%", player.getName()); but that didn't work. I probably messed something up.

My code:

Code:

                        String sJoin = ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', plugin.getConfig().getString("Messages.JoinMSG"));
                        sJoin.replace("%PLAYERNAME%", player.getName());
                        player.sendMessage(sJoin);

Thanks,

 

@Josh014 replace() method returns a new String with the new value. It doesn't modify the original String at all.

Ahh alright. Is there a way to do so?

 

@Josh014 Set 'sJoin' to the new String.

 

Nvm fixed it
