humanoid.DisplayDistanceType = "None"

	--Main
	newtext.Parent = head
	newtext.Adornee = head
	uppertext.Text = player.Name --Changes the text to the player's name.

	  player.EquippedTitle.Changed:Connect(function()
		if char.Head:FindFirstChild("NameTag") then
			lowertext.Text = player.EquippedTitle.Value --This is that the text will say.
			lowertext.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(103, 24, 245) --This is what the color of the text will be.

local rep = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)
local nametag = rep.NameTag

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)

	local head = char.Head
	local newtext = nametag:Clone() --Cloning the text.
	local uppertext = newtext.UpperText
	local lowertext = newtext.LowerText

You should make the equip button change the text to Beginner, and when you press unequip, make it change to Guest

NotZylon · February 6, 2021, 4:05pm

So like this?

No. Revert it and wait a minute I am making a solution

Ioveczour · February 6, 2021, 4:08pm

– Variables
local rep = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”)
local nametag = rep.NameTag

–functions
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
–Varibles
local head = char.Head
local newtext = nametag:Clone() --Cloning the text.
local uppertext = newtext.UpperText
local lowertext = newtext.LowerText
local humanoid = char.Humanoid

	humanoid.DisplayDistanceType = "None"

	--Main
	newtext.Parent = head

Then give me the button script and I will fix

NotZylon · February 6, 2021, 4:10pm

alright heres the button script

local cost = 5
local titleVal = Instance.new("StringValue")
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

	if player.leaderstats.Wins.Value >= cost then
		player.leaderstats.Wins.Value = player.leaderstats.Wins.Value - cost

		wait()
		script.Parent.Text = "Bought"
		titleVal.Name = script.Parent.Parent.Name
		titleVal.Parent = player.Inventory

		wait(0.1)
		script.Parent.Text = "Equip"

		print("You bought this title")

		script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
			if script.Parent.Text == "Equip" then
				wait()
				script.Parent.Text = "Equipped"
				player.EquippedTitle.Value = script.Parent.Parent.Name
				if script.Parent.Text == "Equipped" then
					script.Parent.Text = "Unequip"
					script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
						if script.Parent.Text == "Unequip" then
							wait()
							player.EquippedTitle.Value = ""
							script.Parent.Text = "Equip"	
						end
					end)
				end
			end
		end)
	end
end)

Should i delete the nametag script? well the other script

Ioveczour · February 6, 2021, 4:15pm

local cost = 5
local titleVal = Instance.new(“StringValue”)
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

if player.leaderstats.Wins.Value >= cost then
	player.leaderstats.Wins.Value = player.leaderstats.Wins.Value - cost

	wait()
	script.Parent.Text = "Bought"
	titleVal.Name = script.Parent.Parent.Name
	titleVal.Parent = player.Inventory

	wait(0.1)
	script.Parent.Text = "Equip"

	print("You bought this title")

	script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
		if script.Parent.Text == "Equip" then
			wait()
			script.Parent.Text = "Equipped"
			player.Character:WaitForChild("Head").NameTag.LowerText.Text = script.Parent.Parent.Name
			player.EquippedTitle.Value = script.Parent.Parent.Name
			if script.Parent.Text == "Equipped" then
				script.Parent.Text = "Unequip"
				script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
					if script.Parent.Text == "Unequip" then
						wait()
						player.Character:WaitForChild("Head").NameTag.LowerText.Text = "Guest"

IT WORKS THX SO MUCH, and btw does this work with the other ones? cuz i have more titles

Ioveczour · February 6, 2021, 4:16pm

yes it works for every other one, just edit the button script and you can change costs

Ioveczour · February 6, 2021, 4:18pm

You should put a value that saves, to check if you already bought it

NotZylon · February 6, 2021, 4:20pm

alright im going to make a datastore thanks so much!!

Ioveczour · February 6, 2021, 4:21pm

I can make one for you so you don’t have to have any errors

NotZylon · February 6, 2021, 4:34pm

really?? if thats ok with you im fine with that

NotZylon · February 6, 2021, 4:35pm

If you are going to then can you use it on this script?

local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local MyDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("Wins")

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
	leaderstats.Parent = player
	
	local Wins = Instance.new("IntValue")
	Wins.Name = "Wins"
	Wins.Parent = leaderstats
	
	local Inventory = Instance.new("Folder")
	Inventory.Name = "Inventory"
	Inventory.Parent = player
	
	local EquippedTitle = Instance.new("StringValue")
	EquippedTitle.Name = "EquippedTitle"
	EquippedTitle.Parent = player
	
	local data
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		data = MyDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId.."-wins")
	end)
	
	if success then
		Wins.Value = data
	else
		print("There was an error whilst saving your data")
		warn(errormessage)
	end
end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	
	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		MyDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId.."-wins",player.leaderstats.Wins.Value)
	end)
	
	if success then
		print("Saved Successfully")
	else
		print("There was an error saving data")
		warn(errormessage)
	end
end)
