well i did the same post a few hours ago but the bug dosent seem to be fixed
im a developer of a game and im trying to make a ban ui but it seems to not work
Local Script:

local button = script.Parent
local user = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox
local userreason = script.Parent.Parent.TextReason

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	game.ReplicatedStorage["Banny_Binny!"]:FireServer(user.Text, userreason.Text)
	user.Text = "Player Succesfully BANNED"
	userreason.Text = "Reason"
	task.wait(1)
	user.Text = "username"
end)

Normal Script:

local ps = game:GetService("Players")


function convertDaysToSecends(days)
	return 86400 * tonumber(days)
end


function convertHoursIntoSecends(hours)
	return 3600 * tonumber(hours)
end

local AllowedPeople = {
	1813216757,
	1915724787,
	1029123331,
	2728185622,
}



game.ReplicatedStorage["Banny_Binny!"].OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, bannedplr, banrsn)
	if not table.find(AllowedPeople, player.UserId) then return end
	local plr = ps:FindFirstChild(bannedplr)
	local config: BanConfigType = {
		UserIds = ps:GetUserIdFromNameAsync(plr), -- couldnt get this to a pcall statement :()
		Duration =tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationSeconds.Text) or convertHoursIntoSecends(tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationHours.Text)) or convertDaysToSecends(tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationDays.Text)),
		DisplayReason = banrsn,
		PrivateReason = "This Player Got Banned Because of:"..banrsn
	}

	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
		return ps:BanAsync(config)
	end)
	if success then
		print("THE ALMIGHTY BAN CAME")
	else
		warn("i no no wanna ban")
	end
end)

and the spot of the error code:

function convertHoursIntoSecends(hours)
	return 3600 * tonumber(hours)
end

(sorry if i put too much detail i just want to fix it)

Whatever you’re passing into convertHoursIntoSecends is being converted to nil, probably by tonumber which returns nil if the passed argument can’t be parsed into a number.

Duration =tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationSeconds.Text) or convertHoursIntoSecends(tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationHours.Text)) or convertDaysToSecends(tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationDays.Text)),

I think you should split this line up into multiple lines. It’s a bit difficult to read what’s going on here.

tonumber(player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationHours.Text)

Can you confirm that is actually returning a number and not nil?

did i do it right because when you said switch it to that i thought you mean to remove duration am i right?

Yea, it’s right. I was just making a suggestion. You should confirm that player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").Admn.Frame.TextDurationHours.Text is being converted to a number properly though.

alright it works but its giving me this its not an error code but this

because of this line:

	if success then
		print("THE ALMIGHTY BAN CAME")
	else
		warn("i no no wanna ban")
	end
end)
6

errorMessage should tell you why the pcall failed. You should print that as well

i see why.

Take a look at the documentation for BanAsync. It explains how config should look and it gives an example
