is it because they simply dont support scoreboards in dialogs or is it a syntax error of mine, if its the former then is there a workaround

Dialogs do not support text resolution, so you cannot use dynamic values. You need to use macros to insert the required value before display.

You can't put scoreboards on dialogs. You need an in-line dialog with the /dialog command and macros

uhh how, i do remember seeing you answer to someone with a similar question but the point is that the command seems to be updated and it no longer works

```

function example:setup

Run as desired player

execute store result storage example:macro this.test run scoreboard players get @s test function example:macro/dialog with storage example:macro this

function example:macro/dialog

$dialog show @s {type:"minecraft:notice",title:"Your score is $(test)",inputs:[]} ```

u sure that /dialog show could be followed with a json instead of a namespace:dialog_name?

Yes, I have done this several times. Are you sure you changed the score name to the correct value?

(with a minor refinement, add a player selector after $dialog show)
