I am trying to make a model spawn in when a player types in the model's name into a TextBox and presses an enter button.

The models' names are "apple" and "tree" and they are stored in ServerStorage. I also have a remote event named JournalEvent in ReplicatedStorage.

I made two scripts, I wanted them to make the apple model appear when the player types "apple" into the TextBox (named "Write") and presses the ImageButton (named "EnterButton")

In StarterGui.JournalGui.JournalFrame I have a local script that says:

local Nouns = {"apple", "tree"}
local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.JournalEvent
local frame = script.Parent
local gui = frame.Parent
local items = frame:GetChildren()
local sound1 = script.Parent.Success
local sound2 = script.Parent.Book
local sound3 = script.Parent.Error
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.EnterButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	for i, item in pairs(items) do
		if script.Parent.Write.Text == Nouns[1] then
		sound1:Play()	
		sound2:Play()
		player.PlayerGui.JournalGui.JournalFrame.Visible = false
		player.PlayerGui.MiniJournalGui.MiniJournalFrame.Visible = true
		player.PlayerGui.MiniJournalGui2.MiniJournalFrame2.Visible = false
		player.PlayerGui.JournalGui.JournalBackFrame.Visible = false
		player.PlayerGui.JournalGui.FailMessage.Visible = false
		else
			script.Parent.Parent.FailMessage.Visible = true
			sound3:Play()
			wait(4)
			script.Parent.Parent.FailMessage.Visible = false
		item.Activated:Connect(function()
		local itemName = item.Name
		game.ReplicatedStorage.JournalEvent:FireServer(itemName, game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse().hit.Position)
		
end)	
end
end
end)

In ServerScriptService I have a script that says:

local spawn = game.ReplicatedStorage.JournalEvent

spawn.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, itemName, hitPos)
	local item = game.ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(itemName)
	if item then
		local itemClone = item:Clone()
		itemClone.Parent = game.Workspace
		itemClone:MoveTo(hitPos)
end
end)

When I run the game, type "apple" into the textbox, and press enter, the guis all close successfully, but I get an error saying: Activated is not a valid member of TextBox "Players.BunjiBloxxer.PlayerGui.JournalGui.JournalFrame.Write" and the "apple" model doesn't appear.

When I type anything else into the textbox and press enter, nothing happens (which is what I want)

How can I fix this? Thanks

You only want the apple to spawn?
