You miss a space between the equation sign and the name of the variable. That should be the problem.

Still the same. I still got the error.

[WorthlessCynomys]

local users = {

    ["layla"] = 5,

}

addEventHandler("onServerPlayerLogin", root, function()

    local name = exports.serverCore:getPlayerAccountName(source)

    if (users[name]) then

        setElementData(source,"premium", users[name], true)

    end

end)

This should work. It might be the same as yours now, but maybe you did something wrong. 

With this if you registered with the username layla, it should work.

Well. Okay... I'm not at a PC to test it and It is good with the syntax as I see, so I'm sorry, I can't help you now.

"error attempt to index upvalue "users" (a nil value)"

This means that the local variable users is a nil value, and you tried to index it (users[name]). Is what you posted here the whole code? Perhaps somewhere in the full code users is changed to a nil? The snippet alone seems to be correct so I don't know why users would be a nil value.

We have the same thoughts

addEventHandler("onServerPlayerLogin", root, function()
    local name = exports.serverCore:getPlayerAccountName(source)
    if (users[name]) then
      setElementData(source,"premium", users[name], true)
    end
end)

 

I assume you put this piece of code in another .lua file while you defined 'users' as a local variable which means it wouldn't be accessible in any other .lua file except the file it was defined in. If I guessed it right, you'd have to remove that 'local' beside users variable.
