You can also use a specific player name:

  player-head: "Notch"

tip

You don't need to specify material: PLAYER_HEAD when using player-head. The plugin handles this automatically.

url

Use a custom head texture URL (base64 encoded texture).

item:
  material: PLAYER_HEAD
  url: "eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUv..."

item:
  material: DIAMOND_SWORD
  target: "%zmenu_argument_player%"  # Use a placeholder that resolves to a player name
  name: "&6&l%player_name%'s Sword"

So if the target placeholder resolves to "Notch", the item name will display as "Notch's Sword" for that player.

attributes

item:
  material: DIAMOND_SWORD
  attributes:
    - attribute: ATTACK_SPEED

Best Practices

Use meaningful names - Make item names clear and descriptive
Format lore consistently - Use separators and spacing for readability
Hide unnecessary info - Use flags to hide enchantments/attributes when not needed
Use placeholders - Make items dynamic with PlaceholderAPI
Test with resource packs - If using customModelData, verify the models display correctly
