I’m not sure if this is what you’re trying to do, but see if this works:
local TextLabel = script.Parent.TextLabel
local TextBox = script.Parent.TextBox
game.Players.PlayersAdded:Connect(function(player)
local NickName = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats").NickName
if NickName.Value == "" then
TextLabel.Visible = false
else
TextLabel.Visible = true
TextLabel.Text = NickName.Value
end
end)
I got it. I made a few modifications but it worked! Thanks a lot. From one simple qestion we went on many.
Here’s my script: (bit messy in a way)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local GUI = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("PlayersCard").Frame.NNFrame
local TextLabel = GUI.Default
local TextBox = GUI.ChangeNickName
print("PLAYER JOINED")
print(player.Name.."is crazy") -- just to check for usernames. I usually print funny stuff
local NickName = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats").NickName
wait(1)
print(NickName.Value)
if NickName.Value == "" or nil then
print("There is no text")
TextLabel.Visible = false
else
print("There is text")
TextLabel.Visible = true
TextLabel.Text = NickName.Value
end
end)
I ran into an issue. Data sometimes saves, rarily but sometimes.
Edit: I think it’s fixed now. Phew
Just in case it stops working, try this script:
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local DataStore1 = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("DataStore1")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
leaderstats.Parent = player
local Name = Instance.new("StringValue")
Name.Name = "NickName"
Name.Parent = leaderstats
local success, errormessage
success, errormessage = pcall(function()
Data = DataStore1:GetAsync(player.UserId)
end)
if success then
if Data ~= nil then
Name.Value = Data
else
Name.Value = player.Name
end
else
print(errormessage)
end
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local Data = player.leaderstats.NickName.Value
local success, errormessage
success, errormessage = pcall(function()
DataStore1:SetAsync(player.UserId, Data)
end)
if success then
print("Data was saved")
else
print("There was an error")
print(errormessage)
end
end)
Btw, I change it from “Player_…player.UserId” to just the player’s UserId, so it will reset the data.
I’ll soon (maybe tomorrow) add more values. I’ll comeback if there’s any problems.
It happened AGAIN. IT’S SO WEIRD. I NEVER TOUCH THE SCRIPTS WHILE THEY WERE WORKING AND NOW THEY BARELY SAVE. So weird. I’ll make another post asking for help. Since this one has the initial solution and people don’t go on it.

I made a post about my data not saving if you’re interested in helping.
