Hello!
I am trying to make a TextButton when i click on it, spawn a map.
The script is not working for some reason.

-- Script inside TextButton
local Folder = game.Lighting.Folder
local TextButton = script.Parent.Name
local Model = game.Lighting.Folder.TextButton
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	Model.Parent = game.Workspace
end)

TextButton is String
but your code:

local Model = game.Lighting.Folder.TextButton

should be:

local Model = game.Lighting.Folder[TextButton]

also i used this local script to clone text buttons

local Folder = game.Lighting.Folder
for i, v in pairs(Folder:GetChildren()) do
	if v:IsA("Model") then
		local TextButton = script.Parent.TextButton:Clone()
		TextButton.Parent = script.Parent
		TextButton.Name = v.Name
		TextButton.Text = v.Name
	end
end

Try this instead for the getting the model:

local Model = Folder:FindFirstChild(TextButton);

or better to overcome any replication issues:

local Model = Folder:WaitForChild(TextButton,3);

try this:

local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")

local Folder = Lighting.Folder
local Button = script.Parent
print("Button name is:",Button.Name,"\nnow check if Folder has ",Button.Name)
local Model = Folder[Button.Name]

function onMouseButton1Click()
	Model.Parent = workspace
end

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onMouseButton1Click)

Maybe it’s because the script is LocalScript?

local Folder = game.Lighting.Folder
for i, v in pairs(Folder:GetChildren()) do
	if v:IsA("Model") then
		local TextButton = script.Parent.TextButton:Clone()
		TextButton.Parent = script.Parent
		TextButton.Name = v.Name
		TextButton.Text = v.Name
		--other properties here
	end
end

Are you using server script and localscript?
or just localscript?
Will your game be single player?

No the game won’t be single player. Like if host click Spawn Map on the Text Button, it changes [MapName].Parent = game.Workspace
