Loadstring code runner gui

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello I’m trying to make a gui on which you can run code like you can on the dev console but when i enabled loadstring in server script service it give me warning that my game will become vulnerable to exploiters so i tried to secure it by adding an if statement on the server side to check who the person that fired the remote event is. These are my scripts:

-- local script 
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local text = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text
	game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer(text)
end)

-- server script 
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr,text)
	if plr.Name == "TheConfusedDev" then
	local func = loadstring(text)
		func()
	else
		plr:Kick("Exploiting")
	end
end)

would this be enough to secure loadstrings or are there other ways exploiters can fire loadstrings?

Those checks should be enough, however, why not just use the developer console? It’s normally frowned upon to have loadstring enabled, as there’s normally a better option.
