Here is the other script:

messagemoduler = require(script.Parent.ModuleScript)
messagemoduler.ChatCommand()

the error seems to be that OnPlayerEntered is created under OnChatted

function onChatted(msg, recipent, speaker)
	msg = string.lower(msg)
	if (msg == message) then
		shopgui:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5, 0,0.5, 0), 'Out', 'Bounce', '1')
	end
	function onPlayerEntered(newplayer) --This should be outside of onChatted
		newplayer.Chatted:Connect(function(msg, recipent)onChatted(msg,recipent,newplayer) end)
	end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerEntered)

should become

function onChatted(msg, recipent, speaker)
	msg = string.lower(msg)
	if (msg == message) then
		shopgui:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.5, 0,0.5, 0), 'Out', 'Bounce', '1')
	end
end

function onPlayerEntered(newplayer)
	newplayer.Chatted:Connect(function(msg, recipent) onChatted(msg,recipent,newplayer) end)
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerEntered)

Thank you it helped me. My module is now working. And sorry for posting very shortly in the first post.

In the future, when you want to post code to the forums, please actually post the code rather than a screenshot so we can better assist you. Copy the part of the code that you have trouble with, then paste it between a code block.

```lua
-- Your code here
```

This will allow us to better help you when someone says “please post code”. They aren’t looking for a screenshot, they’re looking for actual text that they can modify or inspect.

Thank you I will use that in my future posts. I am new in dev forum so I did not know that.
