So i'm very new to scripting and I don't know anything pretty much. I'm wondering if it's possible to make a frame and inside insert a textbox with no text, and a textbutton with the text "give". What I want to know how to do if how to make it so when I type in a roblox username in the textbox, it checks if that roblox username [roblox player] is in the game and if they are in the game when I click give and their username is in the textbox in the "Wins" stat of leaderstat the stat increases by 1. I hope I said it clear enough to were someone can help me, thanks!

I'll try to help, I'm not sure if this will work though.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(chr)
local chrname = chr.Name
if chrname = "Nitrolux200" then
-- Grab Leaderstats, then change the leaderstat for the user by 1.
end
end)
end)
Sorry that I had to cut a bit out, I'm sort of a beginner too, but I hope some of this code helped. I'm pretty sure the script can go in Workspace?

the script can go in workspace as long as it's not a local script as workspace doesn't support local script
This doesn't work because you haven't defined leaderstats, and also the character added is unnecessary.
I don't understand any of that, srry. What i'm looking for is to add a textbox and a give button. I put down a username in the textbox and when I press give the script checks if the player is in the game and if the player is in the game then they get +1 of the leaderstat that i chose.
local frame = script.Parent
local textbox = frame.TextBox
local textbutton = frame.TextButton
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
textbutton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local findplayer = Player:FindFirstChild(textbox.Text)
if findplayer then
findplayer.leaderstats.Coins.Value = findplayer.leaderstats.Coins.Value + 1
end
end)
end)

NEVER use the client for writing data on leaderstats.

Yes this is possible
I can do this, though I don't have the time to explain. If you contact the Discord in my Bio, I'll help you from there later in the day. My time is MST.
