Attempt to index field 'Position' (a nil value) How do I fix this?
I'm trying to make a set of GUIs move down when there is a new GUI being placed into the frame. Line 8, is where it fails and it's giving me a nil value for the position. I don't know how to fix this...
local new = main.VideoList.List:FindFirstChild("Copy"):Clone()
local move = main.VideoList.List.MoveDown --Value of 56
local vidslist = main.VideoList.List
local copyGui = main.VideoList.List.Copy
local guiChildren = vidslist:GetChildren("Video")
if guiChildren then
guiChildren.Position = UDim2.new(0,0,0,guiChildren.Position.Y.Offset + move.Value)
end
new.Parent = main.VideoList.List
new.Position = UDim2.new(0,0,0,0)

GetChildren does not have any parameters and it will return an array of children belonging to the object. User#5423 17 — 7y

When it comes to moving and resizing guis I'd recommend using tweening. The official ROBLOX Wiki covers it all. But here's your answer anyway:
if guiChildren then
guiChildren.Position = guiChildren.Position.Y.Offset + UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, move.Value)
end

local new = main.VideoList.List:FindFirstChild("Copy"):Clone() --You forgot to add the last bracket for clone(). I've done it for you UltimateRaheem 75 — 7y

local guiChildren = vidslist:WaitForChild("Video") --Should be this UltimateRaheem 75 — 7y

Anyway I've pretty much answered this as I've fixed the output from saying what your title says. So you can make this post answered now. UltimateRaheem 75 — 7y
