Use the plugin as follows:

    using CodeHelper.Core.PlaceHolder;

    public class Location
    {
        #region Properties
        [Placeholder("{CONTACTNAME}")]
        public string ContactName { get; set; }

        [Placeholder("{USERNAME}")]
        public string UserName { get; set; }

        [Placeholder("{DATECREATED}","MMM dd, yyyy")]
        public string CreationDate { get; set; }
        #endregion
    }

The value {CONTACTNAME} can be anything. This value will be used in your text

Code as Static Method

    using CodeHelper.Core.PlaceHolder;

    var _generalText = "{CONTACTNAME}, your account has been created on {DATECREATED} with username {USERNAME}";
    var _location = new Location() {ContactName = "Frederik", UserName= "FrederikvanLierde", CreationDate = "2022-04-01" };    
    var updatedString = PlaceHolderHelper.Replace(_generalText, _location);

Code as String Extension

    using CodeHelper.Core.PlaceHolder;

    var _generalText = "{CONTACTNAME}, your account has been created on {DATECREATED} with username {USERNAME}";
    var _location = new Location() {ContactName = "Frederik", UserName= "FrederikvanLierde", CreationDate = "2022-04-01" };    

    var _location.Replace(_location);

Result:

Frederik, your account has been created on April 1, 2022 with username FrederikvanLierde
