How can i make search engine in roblox

Koiyukki · November 27, 2022, 4:36pm

You have to put my code in the other else.

danodanya12Beta21 · November 27, 2022, 4:41pm

textBox.SH.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() -- when the text is changed
	local text = textBox.Text:lower() -- lowercase search bar text
	if text ~= "" then -- if it has text
		local buttons = scroll:GetDescendants() -- all of the buttons
		for _, button in pairs(buttons) do -- loops through the buttons
			if button:IsA("TextButton") then -- if it's a button
				local buttonText = button.Text:lower() -- lowercase button text
				if string.find(buttonText, text) then -- if search bar text is found in the button's text
					local GUI = ReplicatedStorage.Websites:Clone()
					GUI.Parent = PlayerGui:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
				else -- otherwise
					local GUI = ReplicatedStorage.Websites:FindFirstChild(buttonText)
					if (not GUI) then
						print('get 404 page')
							return 
					end

					GUI.Parent = PlayerGui
				end
			end
		end
	else

I already did or wrong

If you are converting all input text to lowercase, then the website names must also be ok lowercase.

Koiyukki · November 27, 2022, 5:40pm

Change your roblox website in your folder to lowercase, and then test it.
