Attempt to index nil with 'Text' error

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

That would make literally no difference at all.

#22

Then what about trying:

		RankUiClone.Frame.TextLabel.Text = plr:GetRoleInGroup(959294)
		UsernameUiClone.Frame.TextLabel.Text = plr.Name

Like BanTech suggested? Unless you already have. There should be nothing wrong though.

#23

Try run the script in a separate studio window, to see if there is nothing in the game interfering.

#24 
--- // VARIABLES // ---

local ServerStorageService = game:GetService('ServerStorage')
local RankUi = ServerStorageService:WaitForChild('RankGui')
local UsernameUi = ServerStorageService:WaitForChild('UsernameGui')

--- // MAIN CODE // ---

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
		repeat wait until plr.Character
		
		local RankUiClone = RankUi:Clone()
		local UsernameUiClone = UsernameUi:Clone()
		
        local Head = plr.Character:WaitForChild("Head")
		RankUiClone.Parent = Head
		UsernameUiClone.Parent = Head
		
		RankUiClone.Frame:FindFirstChild('TextLabel').Text = plr:GetRoleInGroup(959294)
		UsernameUiClone.Frame:FindFirstChild('TextLabel').Text = plr.Name
	
end)

just hope this works

#25

That would not make sense, since it would only run once.

#26

I get this error now:
13:32:19.024 - TextLabel is not a valid member of Frame

Also, still no textlabel.

#27

the problem is that char the parameter doesnt exist so if you want the character then simply use plr.Character

#28

No… using plr.CharacterAdded automatically lets you use the first parameter as the player’s character, and runs everytime the player respawns…

#29

What? I adressed the character as ‘char’ in:

plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
#30

print its class name then

30char

#31

That does not even make sense…?

#32

if the character exists then also would be the gui

#33

It would print ‘Model’ as the player’s character is a model.

#34

The problem was the TextLabel not appearing in the GUI, not the character not appearing. Also your method would in fact not only not help, but it would be worse. Since the code would only run once. Sorry.

#35

Also also, it printed “Model” as you can see here:

As the player’s charcter is a model:

#36

can u show your surface gui’s with the textlabel in server storage

#37

They are also most likely BillboardGuis btw.

#38

And he already did, please read the thread above.

#39

It’s a billboard gui… and sure.

I did test your script in studio now, I gets no errors and it loaded, I think something is interfering the script.
Try it in a clean workspace and test it there.
