Do you mean like making an npc chat, making a player chat, or making a custom chat?

I mean I want it to show in chatbox when you hit the chat button.

So you mean like a gui...when a player enters input and press "chat", it shows up as actual chat?

Oh, your chatbox is broken. They only way you could have done that is by literally going into chat settings and either disabling whatever it would be or deleted a script. Sorry, but I don't know how to help.

I have a fix and I would appreciate it if you could also fix my problems(on my scripting helpers profile)

CLIENT SETUP

WITH CLIENT SETUP EVERY PLAYER WILL SEE A DIFFRENT MESSAGE

To do on client put this code in a local script in StarterPlayerScripts:

while true do
	
	local WaitTime = math.random(30,60) --wait time randomiser
	
	local Chat = {                                         --Text to be used(list of possible chat msgs)
		"[System Message] Hello",
		"[System Message] Remember to like this game",
		"[System Message] Are you enjoying?"
	}

	local randommsgs = Chat[math.random(1, #Chat)]

	game.StarterGui:SetCore( "ChatMakeSystemMessage", 

		{ Text = randommsgs, 

			Color = Color3.fromRGB( 255,0,0 ), --Coulor to be used

			Font = Enum.Font.Arial, --Font to be used

			FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size24 } ) --Text size

	wait(WaitTime) --Waits the vale of w seconds between each message

end

The correct syntax for using Chat() is as follows:

local Mouth = game:GetService("Chat") -- Lolz
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ind = 1

local Speaker = Instance.new("Part",workspace)

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) 
	while plr.Character == nil do
		print("Waiting"..string.rep(".",ind))
		if(plr.Character ~= nil) then wait(1) break end
		wait()
		ind = ind+1 < 4 and ind +1 or 1
	end
	Mouth:Chat(Speaker,"Hai!, "..plr.Name.."!!1!!") -- Say Hai!
end)

The only way this will work is you need to have the chat box open, so it won't work in run mode only in play mode. Also, it will only appear as a chat bubble and NOT in the chat box, I'm not sure if it is possible to do that from client/server side scripts.
