I want to make a simple advertising system, but my problem is that i cant figure out how to change a StringValue's value on a script, I made a gui with a textbutton and a textbox and people will enter the decal id they want to advertise in the textbox and when they click the textbutton the script will add a comma and a space and then the decal id, i am new to scripting, Thank you, Here is my script (for the textbutton)

bought = true
local stringvalue = game.Workspace.VurionaLoader.IDSHERE.Value
local decal = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    if bought == true then
        --I dont know what to do here
    end
end)

Simply assign the value.

local bought = false
local stringvalue = game.Workspace.VurionaLoader.IDSHERE -- Don’t add the .Value
local decal = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox -- Don’t add the .Text

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    stringvalue.Value = "This is my value"
end)

That’s how you assign values to a StringValue.

If you do not want to delete the current value, you can join the two values

local bought = false
local stringvalue = game.Workspace.VurionaLoader.IDSHERE -- Don’t add the .Value
local decal = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox -- Don’t add the .Text

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    stringvalue.Value = decal.Text..IDSHERE.Value
end)

Hope this is what your looking for!
