DontDestroyOnLoad cancelling when Main Menu is open

Question

I want to stop DontDestroyOnLoad (gameObject); when I go back to my main menu so that my player doesn't load on the main menu. I tried

         if (Application.loadedLevelName == "MainMenu") {
 
                 } else {
             DontDestroyOnLoad (gameObject);
                 }

But I then looked at it and realized that it would only work if I went back to the Main Menu on the Main Menu.

Destroy it manually.

Destroy()

I tried this on the button that brings me back to the main menu

                     Destroy(playerScript.gameObject);
                     Application.LoadLevel ("$$anonymous$$ain$$anonymous$$enu");

but it crashes the game every time I try.

That's actually what I originally had it as and then I swapped it to see if it would work.

Edit: Weird, it seems to work now. Thank you!!!
