Attempt to index string with "Value" error

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    There’s an error
  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    Error on line 15: "Attempt to index string with “Value” "
    code:
local Gui = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Editor")
local confirming = "started"
script.Parent.New.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if confirming == "started" then
		script.Parent.New.Text = "Confirm"
		script.Parent.Cancel.Visible = true
		script.Parent:findFirstChild("Name").Visible = true
		confirming = "ready"
	elseif confirming == "ready" then
		if script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Name").Text == "ChangeToName" or script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Name").Text == "" then
			script.Parent.New.Text = "Enter a name buddy"
			wait(2)
			script.Parent.New.Text = "Confirm"
		else
			game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Editor").Name.Value = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Name").Text
			game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("Editor").Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
			script.Parent.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage	
			script.Parent.Cancel.Visible = false
			script.Parent:findFirstChild("Name").Visible = false
			script.Parent:findFirstChild("Name").Text = false
			script.Parent.New.Name = "New"
			confirming = "started"
		end 
	end
end)
  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I looked for solutions on script helpers, but I could not find any
    After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

It’s value.Value not Value so yeahhh

Try replace this with
game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”):WaitForChild(“Editor”):FindFirstChild(“Name”).Value = script.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Name”).Text

It’s a StringValue called Name. Not the name of Editor.

Worked, thanks!
