In game (default) chat isn't working

I’m currently working on a game with someone and the chat for that game isn’t working despite it being default Roblox chat. I’ve looked through the game to see if any scripts were causing the chat to get disabled and there isn’t any, same thing with game settings (Infact, I can’t find anything related to chat in game settings.).

I’m able to go into any other game and chat, the game I’m working on is the only one I can’t chat in, Can anyone help solve this issue? (The other dude is experiencing the same thing.)

P.S - Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, didn’t see a section to post this in besides this one. (Feel free to move post if there’s a section for it.)

There is probably a script/something inside your game that is causing that. If you don’t feel safe providing with the game/place file where we can reproduce this issue to help you, then maybe you can try finding it again. If you DID try finding it again but you still couldn’t find it,

  • it’s a bug
  • you’re not finding it properly

Try disabling all your scripts one by one and see if any one of you disabled fixes the issue. Then, figure out what’s in that script that’s causing the issue.

Does this apply only for Classic chat (the box that appears on the top left), Bubble chat (bubble on top of character’s head) or both?

Have you forked(copied) the default Roblox chat scrips because if you have then the chat scrips wont get automatic bug fix updates from Roblox? This means your chat could encounter issues similar to the one you have currently.

The default Roblox chat shouldn’t break unless you have done something too it or as I explained above, forked it. Are you sure you don’t have a script that accidentally disables the chat or modifies it in any way? Do you have the load default chat disabled in the chat service in the explorer because if you want the default chat then it should be enabled:

I’m able to provide a game link, but I’m afraid it’s not going to be much help to anyone here as it’s currently a private group place…

But now I kinda feel stupid for not investigating further… Looks like we somehow renamed StarterPlayerScripts, Don’t ask:
Screenshot_1125

Also, why can we rename that?
It’s fixed now.

P.S: Sorry for the late reply I went to bed after posting this, didn’t know I had renamed something. :frowning: .
