I want it to create another tab in chat that u click on like shown in the picture but it just isnt creating the new tab

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local trainingCreated = false

TextChatService.OnIncomingMessage = function(message)
    local player = message.TextSource and Players:GetPlayerByUserId(message.TextSource.UserId)
    if not player then return end

    local msg = message.Text:lower()
    local chatUser = TextChatService:FindFirstChild(player.Name)

    if msg == "!trainingchat" then
        if not trainingCreated then
            local trainingChannel = Instance.new("TextChannel")
            trainingChannel.Name = "Training"
            trainingChannel.AutoJoin = false
            trainingChannel.Parent = TextChatService
            trainingCreated = true
        end

        local channel = TextChatService:FindFirstChild("Training")
        if chatUser and channel then
            channel:AddUserAsync(chatUser)
        end

        return nil 
    end

    if msg == "!endtraining" then
        local channel = TextChatService:FindFirstChild("Training")
        if chatUser and channel then
            channel:RemoveUserAsync(chatUser)
        end

        return nil
    end
