Phoenix Holograms

Phoenix Holograms is a free hologram plugin built around an in-game editor. Stack text, items, blocks, mobs, heads and images over as many pages as you like, show every player their own placeholders and lines, make any line clickable, and rank players on leaderboards the plugin tracks itself. Bring your holograms over from DecentHolograms, FancyHolograms, HolographicDisplays, CMI or GHolo.

What sets Phoenix Holograms apart

In-Game Editor

Built in-game

Create, move and restyle holograms from menus. Look at one and type /pholo edit to open it.

Per-Player

Per player

Holograms are sent as packets, so one hologram can show every viewer different text, a different page and different lines.

Click Actions

Clickable

Left, right and shift clicks run commands, turn pages, teleport players or send them to another server.

Leaderboards

Leaderboards built in

Rank players by kills, play time, balance or any placeholder, all time or per day, week, month and year.

Bedrock

Bedrock editor

Bedrock staff joining through Geyser reach every editor action through forms, typed text included.

Migration

Switch in minutes

Bring your holograms over from five other hologram plugins, pages and click actions included where they exist.

Your spawn talks to every player. Make it talk to each of them.

No config files needed

Build every hologram in-game

Holograms, pages and lines are set up from the editor and update in front of you as you change them. Ready-made examples import with one click.

Add text, item, block, mob, player head, image and command output lines, then reorder them, give each its own scale and spacing, and split them over as many pages as you need.

Building a hologram in the editor
Billboard, background and scale

Set billboard, scale, shadow, background, opacity, light and rotation for the whole hologram or a single line, with double-sided text when it should read from behind too.

More than floating text

Holograms that move and react

Lines can animate, change for each player and respond when someone looks at them or clicks them.

Animations

Animated text and effects

Typewriter, scroll, colour wave and frame animations, countdowns, and pulse, slide-in and fade effects. Items, blocks and mobs can spin, bob and glow.

Click Actions

Click actions

Give the hologram or a single line its own actions, with a permission and a cooldown. Hover text changes when a player looks at a line.

Pages

Pages turning on their own and by click

Every player turns pages on their own, by click or on a timer, so one hologram can hold rules, news and links without crowding the spawn.

Visibility

Lines shown by condition

Show a hologram to everyone, to chosen players, by permission, by placeholder conditions or inside WorldGuard regions, and hide single lines the same way.

No extra plugin needed

Leaderboards that track themselves

Pick what players are ranked by and the plugin keeps the values, so a weekly top list works without a stats plugin behind it.

Daily Gained today Resets at your time
Weekly Gained this week Your week start
Monthly & Yearly Long runs In your time zone
Switching stats and periods

Rank by a statistic, play time, a Vault balance, a PhoenixCurrencies currency or any placeholder. Rows show player heads, each viewer sees their own place, and a click switches the stat or the period.

Already using another hologram plugin?

Switch in a few clicks. Keep your holograms.

Open Editor > Migrations and pick the plugin you are leaving. The old plugin does not have to be running, holograms you already have are left alone, and the report lists what was imported and what was skipped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Phoenix Holograms is free, with every feature on this page included. There is no paid edition and nothing is locked.

Does it need other plugins?

No. Phoenix Holograms runs on its own. PlaceholderAPI, WorldGuard, the custom item plugins and Geyser are picked up when they are installed, but none of them are required.

Do my players need a resource pack or a mod?

No. Holograms are made of the display entities the game already has, so every player on a normal client sees them.

Which server versions are supported?

Spigot, Paper and their forks from 1.20.4 up to 26.x. Folia is supported too, still marked as experimental.

Can I set it up without the editor?

Yes. Each hologram is its own file in the holograms folder, and every editor action has a command under /pholo. Use the editor, the files or the commands, whichever you prefer.

Can other plugins create holograms?

Yes. A developer API with events lets your own plugins create, change and remove holograms, and listen to clicks.
