I have this roblox script to where when the player clicks the textbutton and it should change the text of the textlabel to the text what the text of the TextBox text is.
It should do that but it’s not.
I have redone it about 10 times.
No clue.

-- -- 
local textButton = script.PArent.Parent.Parent.Frame1.TextButton
local textBox = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Frame1.TextBox
local textLabel = script.Parent


local function onTextButtonClicked()
	
	textBox.Text = textLabel.Text
end

textButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onTextButtonClicked)

That’s where I am so far. No idea what’s wrong or how I make it acheive what I want.

Thank’s! I found the rest of the bugs after I changed it to local. I don’t know how I forgot to make it a local script. Do you know how I can make it to where everyone sees the change of text.

Use a remoteevent and fire it to all clients from the server when you want to change the text

I have this script that goes in ServerScriptStorage. That fires the remote event.

local textButton = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame1.TextButton
local textBox = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame1.TextBox
local textLabel = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame.TextLabel

local function onTextButtonClicked()

textLabel.Text = textBox.Text

end

textButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onTextButtonClicked)

local changeTextEvent = Instance.new(“RemoteEvent”)
changeTextEvent.Name = “ChangeTextEvent”
changeTextEvent.Parent = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”) – You can also create a separate folder for Remotes

local changeTextEvent = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”):WaitForChild(“ChangeTextEvent”)
local textBox = script.Parent.TextBox – Reference to the TextBox

– Function to change the text on the client
local function changeTextOnClient(newText)
textBox.Text = newText
end

changeTextEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(changeTextOnClient)

Here is the second code that goes in StarterPlayerScripts.

local changeTextEvent = game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”):WaitForChild(“ChangeTextEvent”)
local textBox = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame1.TextBox

local function changeTextOnClient(newText)
textBox.Text = newText
end

– Connect the function to the event
changeTextEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(changeTextOnClient)

It’s still not working. Any ideas why may script is not working.

Can you correctly codeblock your script?

--please?

-- Create a RemoteEvent
local changeTextEvent = Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
changeTextEvent.Name = "ChangeTextEvent"
changeTextEvent.Parent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage") -- You can also create a separate folder for Remotes

-- Function to change the text and replicate the change to clients
local function changeTextOnServer(player, newText)
	-- Perform any validation or security checks here before changing the text

	-- Get reference to the TextBox
	local textBox = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui"):FindFirstChild("Frame1"):FindFirstChild("TextBox")
	if textBox then
		textBox.Text = newText
	end

	-- Fire the event to all clients
	changeTextEvent:FireAllClients(newText)
end

-- Connect the function to the event
changeTextEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(changeTextOnServer)

Script 2

local changeTextEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("ChangeTextEvent")
local textBox = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame1.TextBox 

local function changeTextOnClient(newText)
	textBox.Text = newText
end

-- Connect the function to the event
changeTextEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(changeTextOnClient)

Also, change MouseButton1Click to Activated, because .Activated has mobile support while .MouseButton1Click does not.

.MouseButton1Click works on mobile, what are you talking about?
