LocalScript Not Changing GUI

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1
  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want the image and text in the Gui to change when clicked. This is for a mute button.
  2. What is the issue?
    It isn’t changing at all. It successfully mutes/unmutes the audio, but doesn’t change the Gui.
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I checked the script for obvious errors and don’t see any. I looked for solutions and only found one thing, it was a tutorial for something similar. The code was very similar, didn’t work.

Image and script below

mutebutton

local music = game.Workspace.Music
local muteText = game.StarterGui.MuteButton.TextLabel
local muteImage = game.StarterGui.MuteButton.TextLabel.ImageButton

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if music.Volume == 1 then
		music.Volume = 0
		muteText.Text = "Unmute"
		muteImage.Image = "rbxassetid://6853258454"
	else music.Volume = 1
		muteText.Text = "Mute"
		muteImage.Image = "rbxassetid://166376559"
	end
end)

If I didn’t give enough info or formatted this weird, apologies. This is my first post.

try this. It should work since you need to change the player’s UI.

StarterGui does not affect the player, as all gui within startergui get replicated to the PlayerGui instance that can be accessible from a local script inside StarterGui using script.Parent (it will trigger the screenGUI cause all gui will be moved to the player instance). Here is an example:

Testing gui i made

all gui instances from startergui are replicated into the player! if you need any more help let me know.
