I am making an armory system and trying to make it so when the menu is visible the blureffect is enabled but its not working. Code:

local Back = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.BG
local ListItems = script.Parent:WaitForChild("ItemList")
local SellList = script.Parent:WaitForChild("SellList")
local Blur = Instance.new("BlurEffect",Back)
--// Buttons
local Heals = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Healables")
local Armour = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Armour")
local Melees = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Melees")
local Guns = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Guns")
local Purchase = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Purchase")
local Sell = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Sell")

--// Frames
local HealsFrame = ListItems.HealableScroll
local ArmourFrame = ListItems.ArmourScroll
local MeleesFrame = ListItems.MeleeScroll
local GunsFrame = ListItems.GunsScroll

--// Functions
Purchase.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	Purchase.BorderSizePixel = "2"
	Purchase.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(103, 103, 103)
	Sell.BorderSizePixel = "0"
	Sell.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(29, 29, 29)
	ListItems.Visible = true
	SellList.Visible = false
end)

Sell.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	Sell.BorderSizePixel = "2"
	Sell.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(103, 103, 103)
	Purchase.BorderSizePixel = "0"
	Purchase.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(29, 29, 29)
	ListItems.Visible = false
	SellList.Visible = true
end)

BlurEffects only work when parented to lighting and workspace.CurrentCamera.

Parent the Blur to the Camera or Lighting

Just change this line:

For this:

local Blur = Instance.new("BlurEffect",workspace.Camera)
