Roblox filters only one of my texboxes

I am currently using the Roblox filter to filter some text on a textbox. In one script, I filter two textboxes at around the same time but I only get a filter result for one of them. What could be the issue?

It would be nice if you can post some code so we can look at it and see if there are any errors. We don’t know what’s wrong if you haven’t sent your code

#3 
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
				filteredText = TextService:FilterStringAsync(Description, UserId):GetChatForUserAsync(UserId) -- Description doesn't work
			end)
			if success then
				wait(1)
				Booth.Screen.Info.Description.Text = filteredText
			else
				warn("Error while filtering: "..Description.." Error Message:"..errorMessage)
				Booth.Screen.Info.Description.Text = " "
			end
			wait(1)
			local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
				filteredText2 = TextService:FilterStringAsync(GroupName, UserId):GetChatForUserAsync(UserId) -- GroupName filters and works
			end)
			if success then
				wait(1)
				Booth.Screen.Info.GroupName.Text = filteredText2
			else
				warn("Error while filtering: "..GroupName.." Error Message:"..errorMessage)
				Booth.Screen.Info.GroupName.Text = " "
			end

See if this works. I’ve tested in studio and my code work as expected.

local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
	filteredText = TextService:FilterStringAsync(Description, UserId)
end)

if success then
	Booth.Screen.Info.Description.Text = filteredText:GetNonChatStringForBroadcastAsync()
else
	warn("Error while filtering: "..Description.." Error Message:"..errorMessage)
	Booth.Screen.Info.Description.Text = " "
end

local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
	filteredText2 = TextService:FilterStringAsync(GroupName, UserId)
end)

if success then
	Booth.Screen.Info.GroupName.Text = filteredText2:GetNonChatStringForBroadcastAsync ()
else
	warn("Error while filtering: "..GroupName.." Error Message:"..errorMessage)
	Booth.Screen.Info.GroupName.Text = " "
end
