Profile Service leaderstats not creating

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

So i’m trying to use Profile Service to save data for the first time and i wanted to make leaderstats, but it seems like the leaderstats folder isn’t creating even though i don’t have any errors in the output.
Also i DO have the API services enabled.

This is my Data Manager module script :

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local serverScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local modules = serverScriptService:WaitForChild("Modules")

local ProfileService = require(modules:WaitForChild("ProfileService"))
local template = require(script:WaitForChild("Template"))
local leaderstats = require(script:WaitForChild("Leaderstats"))

local dataKey = "DataStore"
local profileStore = ProfileService.GetProfileStore(dataKey, template)

local dataManager = {}
dataManager.Profiles = {}

local function PlayerAdded(player: Player)
	local profile = profileStore:LoadProfileAsync("Player_"..player.UserId)

	if profile ~= nil then
		profile:AddUserId(player.UserId)
		profile:Reconcile()

		profile:ListenToRelease(function()
			dataManager.Profiles[player] = nil
			player:Kick()
		end)

		if player:IsDescendantOf(Players) then
			dataManager.Profiles[player] = profile
			leaderstats:Create(player, profile)
		end
	end
end

return dataManager

This is my leaderstats module script :

local LeaderstatsModule = {}

function LeaderstatsModule:Create(player: Player, profile)
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder", player)
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

	local coins = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
	coins.Name = "Coins"
	coins.Value = profile.Data.Coins

	local diamonds = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
	diamonds.Name = "Diamonds"
	diamonds.Value = profile.Data.Diamonds

	local rebirths = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
	rebirths.Name = "Rebirths"
	rebirths.Value = profile.Data.Rebirths
end

return LeaderstatsModule

And this is my Template script :

local Template = {
	Coins = 0;
	Diamonds = 0;
	Rebirths = 0;
	Backpack  = {};
	Zones = {}
}

return Template

Also the server script just requires so there’s no point of showing that.
Any help would be appreciated so much!

have you disabled any core gui anywhere else in your game? if you have then you might have disabled the leaderstats by mistake.

also random nitpick but it is more optimized to write your instance calls as follows:

local instance = Instance.new("InstanceType") -- parenting here is slower
instance.Name = "InstanceName"
instance.Value = value 
instance.Parent = PathToParentObject

also i just noticed that your module has a local function inside the methods that (appears to) never be called. do you ever call the playeradded function?

You’re not setting the parent of the value instances to anything.
