How would I remove a player's chat from their PlayerGui?
I know there is a method, and it uses SetCoreGuiEnabled, but I forgot which method does that. Help?

Go get the StarterGui and use the SetCoreGuiEnabled method. There are 2 parameters. 1 is the Type of core gui and the other is whether it is true or false.
1 | game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled("Chat", false) |
This would remove the chat.
TIPS
- SetCoreGuiEnabled only works(at least for me) in a LOCAL SCRIPT!
- Use Enum.CoreGuiType
Enum.CoreGuiType
It's better to use Enum, incase you make a typo. You could always do
1 | game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled("Chat", false) |
or
1 | game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Chat, false) |
or
1 | game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCoreGuiEnabled(3, false) |
you can see the Enums here.
Also, remember the bar at the top of the screen, you can remove that. You cannot remove it through SetCoreGuiEnabled.
1 | game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer:WaitForChild('PlayerGui'):SetTopbarTransparency(1) |
If you're making a custom chat thing use this Function here.
Hope this helps! (Choose mine, we're having a contest.)
You can use SetCoreGuiEnabled, which allows to hide or disable some of ROBLOX's CoreGui elements.
1 | game.StarterGui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.Chat,false) |
Here are the other CoreGui elements you can disable.
1 | Enum.CoreGuiType.PlayerList |
2 | Enum.CoreGuiType.Health |
3 | Enum.CoreGuiType.Backpack |
4 | Enum.CoreGuiType.Chat |
5 | Enum.CoreGuiType.All |

StarterGui has a method called SetCoreGuiEnabled, but it needs to be local.
1 | --LOCAL |
2 | game:GetService('StarterGui'):SetCoreGuiEnabled('Chat', false) |
