Could someone help troubleshoot my script?
So I have this script, where you enter the name of a Player, then a reason, using TextBox's.
I will post what output says below:
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
plr=script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
theplayer = script.Parent.Parent.Name.Text
HR=plr.Name
reason = script.Parent.Parent.Reason.Text
if game.Players:FindFirstChild(theplayer) ~= nil then
print("foundplayer")
theplayer.PlayerGui.Warning.Frame.Visible=true
theplayer.PlayerGui.Warning.Frame.Part1.Text="You have been given a warning by "..HR..", if you continue to break the rules, you may be banned from the event"
theplayer.PlayerGui.Warning.Frame.Part2.Text="Reason for the warning: "..reason
elseif game.Players:FindFirstChild(theplayer)==nil then
print("CouldntFindEm")
end
end)
18:06:26.265 - Argument 1 missing or nil
18:06:26.266 - Script 'Players.Player1.PlayerGui.HRWarn.Frame.Frame.TextButton.Scr', Line 6
18:06:26.267 - Stack End
18:06:26.267 - Disconnected event because of exception

Please upvote my rep and/or mark this as the correct answer is this worked or helped you.
The error is saying that the value of theplayer is nil, and this is probably nil because the path to it is incorrect. Perhaps too many .Parents, or too little?

Actually, I figured it out. I named a textbox "Name" and it is messing up. Thanks for your help. Tempestatem 884 — 10y

Oh... no problem :) I suspected the path was wrong. Basscans 60 — 10y

What happened was the textbox was called "Name" but it was checking the Frame's name, then text, which of course is nil. Tempestatem 884 — 10y
