TextChatService chat tags (toggle) [SOLVED]

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
,
#1

Hi. I have a chat tag system script in ServerScriptService. It works fully but with the new TextChatService update that is in April 2025, I have to convert because my script only supports LegacyChatService. I’m looking for some help on changing my script. All help appreciated thanks.
Script:

local ServerScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

local ChatServiceRunner = ServerScriptService:WaitForChild("ChatServiceRunner")
local ChatService = require(ChatServiceRunner.ChatService)

local GroupID = 33796958 -- Replace 16885155 with your actual Group ID
local adminCT = Color3.fromRGB(235, 211, 158)

local function GetGroupId(player)
	local success, result = pcall(function()
		return player:GetRankInGroup(GroupID)
	end)
	return success and result or nil
end

local GroupTags = {
	[255] = { -- Owner
		ChatColor = adminCT,
		Tags = { -- Starts the Tags List (chat tags will be contained in this table)
			{ -- Starts tag 1
				TagText = "Owner", -- Change this to the word(s) that you want in the Chat Tag
				TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(177, 7, 0) -- Change this to the Color you want the Chat Tag to appear in
			}, -- Ends tag 1
		}, -- Ends Tags List
	}, -- Ends RoleID

	[240] = { -- OVERSEER
		ChatColor = adminCT,
		Tags = { -- Starts the Tags List (chat tags will be contained in this table)
			{ -- Starts tag 1
				TagText = "OVERSEER", -- Change this to the word(s) that you want in the Chat Tag
				TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(250, 23, 0) -- Change this to the Color you want the Chat Tag to appear in
			}, -- Ends tag 1
		}, -- Ends Tags List
	}, -- Ends RoleID

	[239] = { -- developer
		ChatColor = adminCT,
		Tags = { -- Starts the Tags List (chat tags will be contained in this table)
			{ -- Starts tag 1
				TagText = "Developer", -- Change this to the word(s) that you want in the Chat Tag
				TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(132, 0, 250) -- Change this to the Color you want the Chat Tag to appear in

	}, -- Ends RoleID

	[100] = { -- staff
		ChatColor = adminCT,
		Tags = { -- Starts the Tags List (chat tags will be contained in this table)
			{ -- Starts tag 1

				TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 195, 66) -- Change this to the Color you want the Chat Tag to appear in

		}, -- Ends Tags List
	}, -- Ends RoleID
	[10] = { --verified
		ChatColor = Color3.new(0, 0.934569, 1),
		Tags = { -- Starts the Tags List (chat tags will be contained in this table)

				TagColor = Color3.fromRGB(0, 99, 255) -- Change this to the Color you want the Chat Tag to appear in

			end
		end
	end)

Ok, I was having trouble with the new chat system, but now I think I can help you.

game:GetService("TextChatService").OnIncomingMessage = function(Message)
	local MessageProp = Instance.new("TextChatMessageProperties")
	if Message.TextSource and Message.TextSource.UserId then
		local Player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerByUserId(Message.TextSource.UserId)
		MessageProp.PrefixText = "Your tag here " .. Message.PrefixText
	end

	return MessageProp
end

This is a script capable of providing you a tag in chat, by implementing related ifs verifying the user level in the group, you are able to assign individual tags.

Tip: by putting "<font color='#ffffff'>Your tag</font> " you are able to change its color.

And to further clarify @PiheroB on the color, you can utilise ToHex to convert between your existing Color3 and the Hex code.

hi yes, so i was wondering if you could provide me with an example of toggling a chat tag with “/e tag”. its fine if its not a toggle and it’s just like “/e notag” or “/e tag”. I’m just a bit overwhelmed by the whole toggling thing.

im closing this topic bcuz i paid someone to do this cuz my lazy couldnt script it
