Attempt to index number with 'MouseButton1Click' can someone help me with this error?

Asked 441 views1 answers

I'm making a shop GUI so players can buy swords and weapons. But an error appeared on the output saying "attempt to index number with 'MouseButton1Click'". and I tried everything that I could think of to fix this and it still doesn't work. I've tried finding online solutions but nothing helped. So I came here. Here's where I got the error:

         box.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()--Where I got the error
	for _, v in pairs(itemViewport:GetChildren()) do
		if not v:IsA("Frame") then
			v:Destroy()
		end
	end
end)

What is box? you need to tell what the box is like is it a script.parent or script.parent.parent.box you might need to put the script as a local script and/or put the script inside the GUI Is it a part? if it's a part then you need to do

script.Parent.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	for _, v in pairs(itemViewport:GetChildren()) do
	        if not v:IsA("Frame") then
			v:Destroy()	 
		end
	 end
end)

you need to put it in the local script in the part

The box is the frame where the players buy the items. And yes the script is a local script
