I have so far made a GUI button that only appear for me, but I do not know what I can do for the GUI button to actually activate a sound by clicking a GUI button and deactivate it by clicking the GUI button again.

Use sound:Play() and sound:Stop() to do this. I recommend you read this: Sound | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

since im not really a scripter but more of a builder

try this:

local bop = false
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if bop == false then
soundname:Play()
else
soundname:Stop()
end
end)

is there an id that i have to put somewhere?

#6

nope. Just name the sound “bip” and parent it to the button and do:
“script.Parent.bip” instead of “soundname”. Should work.
Cheers! My first comment to get “solution” on it!

There is a property for the sound named “Lopped”. Click the checkbox next to the property to have it loop.

Im clicking the gui button and the sound script isnt working
is there some kind of placement problem or should it be a local script

Does it give you any errors in the output when clicking the button?

#12

Im not seeing any errors when i click the button
should i place a clickdetector?

#13

he buttons don’t need click detectors. Are you using both a local and a server script?

#14

wait should the sound thing be a local script?
the other local script i named “no” is for only me to access the gui

#15

It has always worked for me only on a local script. I suggest you do that.

#16

Okay i made it a local script and when i click it , it plays the audio but when i click it again it just replays the audio

#17

Copy and paste the script as a comment in case you did something wrong.

#18

ive checked and i can send you the picture of the local script, here

I have no idea whats happening but I have an alternative. Try this:

local bop = false
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if bop == false then
script.Parent.bip.PlaybackSpeed = 1
else
script.Parent.bip.PlaybackSpeed = 0
end
end)
