Button is not a Valid Member of Cloned Frame

So in my script, I’m cloning a frame with a UIListLayout. Inside of the frame is a TextButton with some things in it. Basically, after cloning the Frame, it says in my output ‘RoleTextButton is not a valid member of Frame “DisplayFrame”’. I’ll attach my script below, along with the part of the script that is causing the error. Any help is appreciated :slight_smile:

Part of the script causing the error:

	local newButton = template:Clone()
	newButton.RoleTextButton.Name = role.Name
	newButton.RoleTextButton.NameTextLabel.Text = role.Name
	newButton.RoleTextButton.BackgroundColor3 = config.Color.Value
	newButton.RoleTextButton.CharacterImage.Image = config.ImageLabel.Image
	
	newButton.RoleTextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
		
		if selectedButton == newButton then 
			return end
		
		if selectedButton then
			selectedButton.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.R + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.G + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.B + 0.2)
			titleText.Text = selectedButton.Name
			previewFrame.CharacterPreview.Image = config.PreviewImage.Image
			config.SelectionSound:Play()
		end
		selectedButton = newButton
		selectedButton.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.R + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.G + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.B + 0.2)
	end)
	
	table.insert(roleButtons, newButton)
end

The whole script:

local template = script:WaitForChild("DisplayFrame")

local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local roles = rs:WaitForChild("Roles")
local remotes = rs:WaitForChild("RemoteEvents")

local gui = script.Parent

local previewFrame = gui.RoleSelectorFrame:WaitForChild("PreviewFrame")
local titleText = gui.RoleSelectorFrame:WaitForChild("TitleTextLabel")

local roleButtons = {}
local selectedButton = nil

for _, role in pairs(roles:GetChildren()) do
	
	local config = role.Configuration
	
	local newButton = template:Clone()
	newButton.RoleTextButton.Name = role.Name
	newButton.RoleTextButton.NameTextLabel.Text = role.Name
	newButton.RoleTextButton.BackgroundColor3 = config.Color.Value
	newButton.RoleTextButton.CharacterImage.Image = config.ImageLabel.Image
	
	newButton.RoleTextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
		
		if selectedButton == newButton then 
			return end
		
		if selectedButton then
			selectedButton.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.R + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.G + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.B + 0.2)
			titleText.Text = selectedButton.Name
			previewFrame.CharacterPreview.Image = config.PreviewImage.Image
			config.SelectionSound:Play()
		end
		selectedButton = newButton
		selectedButton.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.R + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.G + 0.2, selectedButton.BackgroundColor3.B + 0.2)
	end)
	
	table.insert(roleButtons, newButton)
end

table.sort(roleButtons, function(a, b)
	return a.Name < b.Name
end)

for _, button in pairs(roleButtons) do
	script.DisplayFrame.Parent = script.Parent.RoleSelectorFrame.RolesScrollingFrame
end


script.Parent.RoleSelectorFrame.DeployTextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	
	if selectedButton then
		remotes.ChooseRole:FireServer(selectedButton.Name)
	end
end)

Run the game and look into your LocalPlayer. Look into the frame to see if there is the button.
If not, then try cloning the button and parent it into the frame

#3

there is a button i already checked that

I think it may be that you are cloning the frame, and there is 2 of the frames with the same name, and it cannot find the RoleTextButton.
