Is there any way to do new lines in a response from a custom command?
hey folks, im trying to change the !store command to a whisper, when I copy and paste what i think is the commands, its not working...is there more to the code then the following?
available items are: item1, item2, item3 https://StreamElements.com/$(channel)/store
@lament blade Firefox?
so with stream labs importing with them changing there $user parameter has been become a legacy parameter use $userid when adding / removing points . will i need to update these commands to be $user?
do somebody knows how to get so you can get bit donations?
Bits are done directly through twitch. You get those when you reach affiliate status on twitch
and how do i do that?
On your twitch dashboard there’s a “guide”
k
under achievements
click your name on twitch dashboard left panel-achievments
oh
have you read any guides to begin streaming? if not i highly suggest doing so
im a streamer
question: for the song request stuff, do I just have the song request section of streamelements open in a browser, or do I add it as a widget to my overlays, or....?
(I don't have the media sharing aspect enabled)
Our Desktop App Ground Control: https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
wait ... how does one add a reaction automatically to their message? O.o
the reaction automagication is more through programming
it isn't instant, its just nearly instant
what’s up my dude
Can I PM you?
if you want, what’s the issue?
ah ye, ty gib, Can i talk with someone who knows about tips not showing up on stream as alerts?
no i dont,
do you see the tips in the activity feed?
yep they show up there
and you have an overlay with an alertbox setup in OBS?
sure
What's the best obs settings to stream on? I want to do 1080 but I'm not sure if that's possible
OBS has their own server, would be best to ask there 😄 but.. it really depends on a bunch of things, your specs, internet, etc... You can try to get help here discord.gg/obsproject
so with stream labs importing with them changing there $user parameter has been become a legacy parameter use $userid/$username . Will i need to update these commands to be $user?
we have a list of variables next to default and custom commands
$(user) will use the target's username if one is specified when using the command. If a target is not given, it will use the sender's username
Hey guys quick question what’s the best way to add music to your stream is there a certain plugin in need or something else
Are you looking to take requests or just play your own music?
hey folks, im trying to change the !store command to a whisper, when I copy and paste what i think is the commands, its not working...is there more to the code then the following?

@whole orchid You can change custom commands to be a whisper in the Advanced settings for them, but default commands you can't. Did you try to make this into a custom command?
Guys I need help. I accidentally deleted all the data like last subs, followers, bits etc not showing. What do i do? Any help would be greatly appreciated
@whole orchid Having a look into it now
What's their username? That'd be easier so I can see if there's a problem with how it's structured currently
@dense jackal went to overlay , data , then pressed reset
If you know the data you can put it back in and click Save Changes
But only for Latest events, not the Recent ones currently
I mean i pressed reset overlay. So i dont know my last sub, last follower, last donated bits etc. Where can i see it in order to restore it?
Check your activity feed
⤴ exactly, you can find it out and put it back in, then click Save Changes
I will try it out. Thank you very much for the support.
Okey I really need help with the App of the bot whenever i open it Nothing would work followers/host etc alerts only works once its the 3-4the And it really starts to frustrate me
@dense jackal @tight harness it worked. Got it fixed already. My eternal gratitude. You guys are the best. Sorry for being noob. Haha
No problem 😃 glad it's working 
np it’s why we are here!
Keep up the good work. Commended!
Hi! I have a quick question about the Tipping feature. Would anyone be able to help me clarify a couple things?
What is it 😃
Hey :D
I've heard charge backs being an issue for streamers in the past, but is this isssue somehow mitigated when receiving donations via StreamElements?
@humble elbow I have no idea sorry
Using a recognized service helps a bit (as opposed to just a paypal button), as does putting a big ol' "you agree that this is nonrefundable" so you can argue it with paypal or whoever if needed. But there's little way of completely avoiding it, to my knowledge.
@humble elbow Hi. This is actually a Paypal "issue" - Paypal allows people to charge back donations. It does not matter what service you are using. You can open a dispute and fight for it, but is it 50/50. Make sure you clearly state that donations are non-refundable and open claims when you get chargebacked.
^
you can also make it so people have to sign into twitch account to donate, putting a small deterrent for anon trolls
Thank you for the quick responses guys and yeah, thats what i figured. Where do you guys suggest I put in that "donations are non refundable" blurb in the tipping page?
Yup
Alrighty. Is there any support StreamElements can give to the streamer when opening disputes? i.e. providing us with the terms and conditions the donator agreed to when tipping, etc?
And is their anyone That could Help me with the app trouble im Going trough ?
you can also put it on the donation page @humble elbow - you can peek at mine if you like to see an example.
@turbid zealot can you give a bit more detail on your trouble?
@humble elbow From personal experience I find that asking to speak to the department that deals with fraud and then explaining the issue to them often helps a lot. This is what I have done every time in the past and I've never lost a case.
Thanks! @tight harness
@solar hedge Whenever I open the app My bot will stop working even tho i didnt change anything it sudently sopped working like 1 week ago
Stopped*
and ever since my first 3 alerts wont go off
App closed or open
Okey aparently The oauth just randomly changed 😃
Got it
ru?
@unique condor russian support? yes. да, есть такой)
@ebon forum определённого канал нет да?)
нет, мелочи
25мин
принял
@unique condor ну давай, что у тебя там, где горит?)
@ebon forum вообще ничего не горит) 2 вопроса, что такое соревнования и с чем их едят?
с остальным всем разобрался)
а тут что-то аж идей нет, что это может быть и как реализуется
Hey guys! just wanted to confirm, when using StreamElements and using the !sr command, you have to have the link right? In other words, !sr (keywords) don't work? Is this just not a feature right yet or am I not enabling something in the settings to allow song requests with keywords work?
!sr youtube link
@unique condor у нас есть накопление очков (система лояльности) - так вот соревнования - это ставки. если знакомы со ставками на чёрное или красное - то тут похожая идея. Победители получают ставку + долю, проигравшие - ничего. Ставки имеют повышенный коэффициент от суммы ставки.
@ebon forum т.е. например я задаю 2 варианта и один из них выигрышный?
@unique condor допустим делаете соревнование - сдохну в дарксоулс до костра или нет - один за, один против, делайте ставки)
Можно несколько вариантов
@unique condor незачто, обращайтесь, русскоязычная поддержка пока только в виде меня одного)
@ebon forum понял, ну я благо читать умею, с остальным разобрался)
@unique condor посматривайте в раздел "news" тут пониже, там скоро новости для региона будут интересные. сейчас вот ютуб внедряем. тут быстрее всего новости будут.
@ebon forum спасибо, ливать не буду xd
@unique condor отличного вечера вам 
@ebon forum взаимно 
Hello guys ^^
something happend .. someone spammed the chat with bits and now the store isn't working 😂 i mean the command !store
They have no connection to one another

yea
So ... I'd like to get a command idea working but I'm not sure how. I could do it in Ankhbot. Basically someone would type !ashamed and the bot would spit out "Dishonor on your cow!" and time them out for a second or two. Is there a way to do that in SE?
Im streaming right now and the commands are working but the !store not anzmore :/
try turning the command off and then back on? ;P
That's the go-to suggestion, right? lol
what happens if you sort alphabetically and search that way?
or is it not working in chat entirely?
it's not working in the chat when i type !store nothing appear
and it's not showing up in your list of commands, right?
just checked - it's missing there. Try adding the command again - it might have somehow gotten accidentally deleted.
👍
For more knowledgeable peeps than I: Is there a way to do that !ashamed command? I'm thinking it might require a two-line command and I don't think SE supports that...
I was having a issue with it being very cpu intense. I was using a animated overlay for Fortnite and it maxed out my cpu
Is there a setting I was missing?
I'm using a I7 6700k
Are you using Xsplit or OBS?
so i am trying to use one of the super themes. and i checked the shutdown source when not visible. but then it take like 20 secs for the source to start when i change sceenes. any way to speed that up? i am using obs
Obs
Yes using the overlay increased the cpu usage by 30%
hm
it could well be taking that much cpu to show the animated overlay. I'm not too familiar with actually using those.
Okay I guess I'll have to try using a non animated one
I was trying to use SE instead of Steam labs but the cpu usage kills the desire lol
I'm loving SE over Streamlabs. It can do pretty much everything SL can do and if you play multiple games it's a godsend.
(or rather, if you have multiple game-specific overlays)
see I've not had that same issue. Maybe try another overlay that's just not animated and see if that fixes it. If it does, you know that's the problem.
Sometimes you can save stuff locally and run it in OBS as various source elements, too, if need be.
welp, i didnt notice any difference in cpu usage between SL and SE.
and the SE bot and channel moderation are way superiour
...also... ground control is ❤ ❤ ❤
I do wish it was a bit more compactable.
the store is wooorking 😮 thank you if someone did anything 😄
Where is the edit button for Timers messages?
Hmmm I see nothing... “enable” is the far most right thing I see @lament blade
Ah ha! Thank you @lament blade

can anyone tell me how to reset a counter back to zero when I created it in a custom command?
what variable that would use
There's a default command call !editcounter or !editcount
!editcount <name of couter> 0
I got this! @clever mango I’m Wearing my big girl pants!

still has the counter number 😦
when I duplicate an overlay it copies everything including the url. It would be better if the newer duplicated overlay has it's own unique url that correspond with that overlay.
Duplicating has its own url
is the edit counter bugged? not changing any values at all
did you a set counter name in the variable?
If you set a counter name within the variable use that. Otherwise the counter uses the command name. The ! is not included in the name
did th is in custom command
what are the full variables? They are cut off
ComputerWizard has died ${getcount <name>} times, in ${game}
<name> is your counter name then

Hello, does the chat overlay work with facebook chat as well?
right now we're only supporting Twitch+YouTube
facebook support planned for later this year
thanks Perry, also nice autobot icon!
Hiya, I'm trying to set up my subscriber alerts with a gif, and I've selected the gif, but everytime I simulate a subscription, it just shows a dancing shark >.< any idea?
did u go into overlay then widgets and alerts
click on preview box, alerts show up on side then click COG wheeel then change image
and do your gif
yeah should be same procedure
yeah i've selected it as you can see in the ss but for some reason still getting the shark
for some reason its not picking up recent cheers and updating
nvm it shows up after saving
someone might be around to help ya charlottee i think their away atm
shouldnt be long
they always answer me in reasonable time
Thanks, I sorted it! It was doing resubs and wasn't set up for the resub variant/gifted sub variant, like.. wasn't doing the first time sub only the resubbed for x amount which is on a different variant or something
thankyou for your help though! 😃
hf @cerulean hound gl 😄
thanks sweetie
Can I ask something? How can StreamElements see all the sub in Youtube?
I connected today and it can see just yesterday subs..
probably by your login and password reads the data from that maybe, just m y guess till someone who knows for sure can answer
on twitch it loads up all my data from logging in with my twitch credentials
In my twitch I have same problem, I dont have 2 follow from the begining.
Hello @cerulean hound have you checked out our youtube tutorials? :)
Hi, I was able to import my Streamlabs donations list, however, it didn't import my cheers/bits... Any way to import bits info? I have other bots too and I think I can find the tips info on Twitch as well.
@SmirkyFox#6013 I had the same problem as well...
@onyx ether @cloud flare
If you haven't checked out our tutorials on YouTube, here is a link to the video regarding imports
https://youtu.be/886i0iTjLwE
Importing other tools to StreamElements is EASY -- check out this video guide on how to do it. You can import: StreamLabs, Nightbot, Revlo, Deepbot, Streamti...
Yes, but it doesn't appear to talk about bits.
I don't believe it imports cheers yet, the cheers list currently goes from when you signed up or when we implemented the feature for those who used SE before that. I have brought this up before and the suggestion was well received
Thanks @vital wyvern :3
No problemo :3
@vital wyvern It was a little bit different, but I can see my tips now. But still I dont know how can I see all my subs from Youtube..
Sadly i don't have the answer for it as am in the twitch section, but i am looking into it :) @cloud flare
I found it, but just for display the information.
Can you please make donation goals actually reset after testing donations in an overlay?
I've been told before that it's supposed to automatically reset. It does not.
Now I have to check a VOD to see where I was on the goal
Correction: i didn't have to actually check a VOD since in the "data" tab it still listed the correct amount
However, it listed the correct amount with an additional $00.0000000005
meaning when I hit "save" it simply caused the goal to change to (%) with no progress tracked
i'd imagine this is a bug
simple question, how do i reset the cheer goal ?
@fierce light by going in to the overlay editor
im here
And klicking on the Data tab
@long garden The data added to an overlay through emulated events is completely untied to the data page and has no way of saving to it, a simple refresh of the overlay updates it back to what is in your data page
oh ty
No problem 
Another question: Can I do Streamboss with Elements?
Hey guys the alerts are having issues again can someone come check out the stream /samusthegamerchick on twitch. Shes really frustrated by this issue.
@tight harness So actually we dont have...
hey guys im trying to switch over from streamlabs to streamelements but ihaving an issue with my overlay where setting it to 720p cuts a bunch of it off
I never said we did
any idea why points imported show in leaderboard but not showing them in chat at all?
But we've started one 
@uncut shadow Try setting it to 1080p, OBS can downscale it to 720p in it's video settings
@tight harness I dont use OBS anymore unfortunately, ive switched back to xsplit
@knotty spade Never heard that one before
@uncut shadow Ahh, I'm not familiar with xsplit's settings but it's likely also possible there
im a mod/bot guy for a partner streamer and were swapping and it shows i have 41003 points but when i do the command in chat its showing 0
@knotty spade What's their username?
djtechlive
That's new 🤔
yeah idk
Fixed Telcis' issue in stream chat
timers section would be where I add a message for the bot to advertise x amount of mins or whatrever?
Question... Does loading a "Browser Source" in OBS take longer to load depending on how much is on the overlay (different types of widegts)
yes, as well as your internet and cpu if it’s taking too long, use studio mode to preload overlays
So is it good practice to make each widget a browser source of its own on a scene to possibly load faster
hmmm let me check out studio mode never tried that
no because that would eat cpu usage
k
altho i do like a base overlay always on, but like hypecup alerts etc reload
my cpu can handle it, and it still reloads he browser source, but that way it’s not jarring either
what website can i go to, in order to download free gifs or pics to put in my StreamElements store for redemption?
i have a countdown timer overlay and the time it displays in the editor is completely different from what it shows on stream
i've saved it multiple times to reset it with no luck
Are you saying they start at different times?
yep
looking at it right now and the editor displayed starting at 9 minutes (what i wanted) and OBS is showing it starting at 10
i didn't have this issue when i had it count to a specific time of day
What is your overlay name?
but that's a hassle to calculate every stream
overlay name?
something like... countdown timer
Album countdown?
no, "theme countdown"
theme song* countdown
my mistake
if there's a way to manually fix that, don't do it now, since i just started the stream
Has there been a delay in SE stream reports?
Hey, where / how do I remove StreamElements as a BOT / Moderator in my chat? Conflicting with my "custom" BOT.
How much of a delay? @stone spire
they take up to 15-25 minutes max.
What seems to be the issue @restive turtle ?
I can't seem to find the page where you configured / add / remove the StreamElements BOT from my Twitch chat and it's outputting old commands I no longer need; as I am using the newer "make your own BOT" tool.
Basically just want this to not be happening
@stuck hamlet well I haven't received one from last night which was like 10 hours ago
That shouldnt be taking that long @stone spire maybe hectic can look into it 
@restive turtle On the dashboard page you can either Part or Mute it
That too 
How do we disable annotations appearing in Media Share videos?
Browser didn't show anything in the dashboard other than the graphs, found it in Chrome though. Ty 
@deep widget Don't believe you can
"You can't turn off the annotations in the URL but you can in the embed link by adding iv_load_policy=3 as parameter."
Streamelements isn't doing (or providing) this?
@tawny pivot ^
Everything about songrequest is getting redone completely.
Thanks guys for bypassing my message.
Got another question / issue. Whenever I change any settings (e.g Chatstats or Tipping) or add words to the profanity filter and then press "save" it gets changed back to default after refreshing the page. 🤔
@rustic merlin We've been called out to check this issue on this channel previously and every time we've found that the issue is not occurring from our end.
My Stream Elements won't respond to new followers or anything in my chat anymore. It had been doing so previously but recently has stopped all together. Any thoughts or ideas?
@rustic merlin What issues are occurring? No one is intentionally "bypassed" in this channel. Sorry for missing your message.
Can't make any changes stick 
@restive turtle Chatstats settings are set right now as the system is being worked on. For profanity filter are you pressing enter after typing each one to submit the word/phrase and THEN pressing save to save the entries?
@woeful reef chat alerts are disabled for your account
Alright. Yes, I did that the first time and it didn't save. Now it just takes a long time for it to actually load in the content of the profanity filter list so that it seems empty for 2-3 seconds. Probably an issue with my browser or computer (having an issue with Windows 10 where certain control panel settings are reverting to default similarly to the Chatstats settings so that got me a bit worried if my browser was being affected too). All
if Chatstats issue is due to you guys tweaking it.
dow do i link my donation in stream labs to my paypal
labs or streamelements?
Once you have a paypal account created with an email just add that email address to the tipping settings page https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping
ok and then how do i link that to my donation button on my twtich channel
Click "open my page" at the bottom and add that link to your twitch panels
hmmm i dont see how to link the panels though
!panels
Twitch's official help guide for Panels: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/2416760-how-to-edit-info-panels
That should help 😃
i just dont see the link im supposed to copy sorry
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping at the bottom of this page there is a button that says "open my page"
click that and it will take you to your tipping page for streamelements
i see that
Copy that link and paste it into your tip/donation panel
oh ok
@clever mango thank you for the help!
my pleasure 
My overlay isn't displaying my total sponsor count or recent super chats. Any ideas why that might be?
@heavy dock did those happen before you signed up to StreamElements?
if so its possible YT didnt deliver the info when you signed up, you can go here and fix it manually till we grab the new events: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
im not the one with 20k followers ;D
hahaha ❤
enjoy the platform, come back for any question you might have
we'll be adding a chatbot in the next few days
so be on alert
Streamlabs kinda angered me. Signed up for this and the alerts are MUCH better
new features are coming :D
How do i custom add subs into stream elements? I became affiliate and ppl subbed before i reset my stream elements
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session @tropic phoenix
check the aggregates tab @tropic phoenix
Thanks for the help once again @proud pumice

@heavy dock we'd love to hear feedback on how's life as a livestreamer on youtube, if you have feedback/ideas/thoughts feel free to send them all on my DMs
Will do! 😄 I will give some feature ideas that competing platforms don't have 😄
i have been trying to get into sellout. i just modded stream elements and the application has been filled out. what else needs done? i am about to go live so i just wanted to see if i could get in there tonight
I've just added you @strange frost
thanks so much!
Is there any way to setup triggers in the timers ?
no
is there any way to setup triggers or those simply doesnt exists in se ?
you mean have "hey what headset are you using?" and it would answer?
Hi there - How do I add KappaGen to OBS without using a StreamElements overlay?
You can set keywords in commands to do that
is there anyone i can whisper when i got problems donating to ppl? (my paypal account is active and is being used for other stuff without any problems)
@nova garden you need the overlay to do it what seems to be the issue?
@trim sparrow what's the issue with donating to people? We do not touch the money
Did you test this on multiple SE accounts?
Like I said there's literally no difference because we do not touch the money you donate, it's just a paypal transfer
This way we just recieve an alert of the transfer
If you can't donate to someone, it would have to be an issue between their paypal account or yours.
Or perhaps, the user has tipping moderation checked, an the alert didn't go through because they have to aproove or deny it
well if i try to donate to someone (in my example: timthetatman) i get to the paypal site (which for some reason looks like its the SUUUUUUUUPER old one) and then after typing in my password it says this: https://gyazo.com/6793d61d1c6641b8c075b6f4d2ee691d (its in german but it basicly says that my payment cant be done right now (i test this since like 3 months now and it gives me the same error every single time))
weird, it has to be something with paypal. If it was on our end, it wouldn't even take you to the paypal page
Possibly a local issue because you live in germany donating in an incorrect currency from your paypal 🤔
i talked with wipztv already (his main mod (i think)) and he said that i have to call paypal to fix this issue but there is no issue at my end at all.
also i am from austria and i put € in the donation and not $
i use this paypal account for EVERYTHING and it doesnt give me any problems ever... just for streamelements
Have you tried donating to other StreamElements users?
i dont know any other streamer i like that uses streamelements...
I recommend contacting PayPal from this link https://www.paypal.com/de/selfhelp/contact/call
I was able to select euros on Tim's tipping page and it converted to USD on the payment portal. I then logged in with my email and it took me to the payment method screen which is the final step before pressing "Pay"
Only PayPal will know the reason for that error message when trying to login on their payment portal
@dense jackal Can I import a browsersource just for KappaGen?
You can create a new blank overlay, and just add the kappagen widget
Ah ok thank you!
I have a question regarding kappagen as well: I have it setup for sub actions only - for extra hype for a new sub - but I cannot select any emote. It defaults to my 3 sub emotes only. Is it possible to change that?
yes. When you click on the widget, there is a setting option that allows you to pick from a wide array of emotes. Let me grab a screeny
A quick reload seems to have fixed it. I'll try that too next time. Thanks!
👍
Now to set the kappa command to mod only..and I'm golden! 😄
Done. Kappa
😃
Thanks for the help @weary mist
no problem 😃
Hey guys, back with another question
Seems like there's a longish delay on tips/cheer alerts showing up on stream, is there a way to speed up how fast they appear or is it locked
those alerts should be instant 
Hmmm
can basic aritmetic operations be made ?
I guess it's just because it's the standard stream delay, was using streamlabs previously, felt faster
@slender cliff can you give an example?
i want to create a command to compare two peoples in the loyalty rank
ohh
thats a shame 😦
Also, I didn't mean example of arithmetic, I meant it's implementation in a command, I haven't seen it before 😄
\
and how can i send then multiple arguments to a command ? and get them ?
like !points user1 user2 user3
if you use $(1) (you can change the number, it represents the position in a phrase)
so if we had "Hello World", $(1)=Hello and $(2)=World. As a bonus, $(1:) gets Hello World
You can use $(user.points)
$(user) variable will pull the name of a person put after the command, or default to the sender
if you always want to default to sender, use $(sender)
so then i can use ${$(1).points} to get the points of the first user sent as argument ?
and so on ?
oh ok, so is there a way to have emotes show up in the actual alert box?
since it just is the plain text
currently
like how streamlabs does it @clear prawn ?
I think so yea
are we talking the text, or as an added efffect
I get that
just add the kappagen widget
but is it in the tip text, or as an added effect
oh yea the text of the alert
like cheer50 Kappa Kappa
I want the face to show not the words
That is something that could come in the near future, I know we have had both sides of the fence on that one (I am looking for a toggle option)
if you're looking for generic emotes around your alerts, checkout kappagen it's neat
ok Ill try that
Hello for sound effects do they play in the stream when someone redeems it?
!redeem Sound ?
After it redeems is it supposed to go off? If so I cant hear mine
Says that I redeemed it but doesn't play instantly? Does the stream have to be live for it to do it?
you need to have store redemption widget in your overlay, it will play through obs
Gotcha thank you!

nevermind!
oh alright 😄 
nono overlay widget is in overlay editor -> widgets
OK thank you
just add it to any overlay you are using of ours currently and save and you're good to go 😄
Hmm this seems a bit more complicated than I expected ahhh lol
I didn't have any overlays
Trying to make a new one
so basically you generate a overlay link and put it into your obs as a browser source
to look like this
Djtechlive Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
Ok I will follow this thank you
how do i get stream elements to recognize that i changed my twitch username?
Try re- logging your account
🤦 thanks. the one thing i didnt try
all good! haha
Is this right ? ${$(1).points} ?
Hey guys whats the wiki page for the $(time.Australia/Adelaide) time zones again?
like there's a standard
is there any wiki with more explanatory uses for those args ?
there's a variables page, which has examples
or the variable section its all the explanation se has ?
so does somebody knows if i cant get loyalty points from an arg ?
for a specific user?
xchange? or like transfering over some points?
I think he means return the value
hm allright
${user.points} is the points for a user
@tame atlas yes, i know that but i want to get them from an arg
@stone spire *
!compare user1
i want to get the points of user
user1 *
is there a count command that we can use? If I wanted to count for ex: number of phone calls I get while streaming xD
lels
xD
i think is !editcounter
but there is almost no deep info about commands
is the variable to display and increment
let me try that out
${getcount <name>} is to grab the count without incrementing it
well i give up, i can get the damn points of an user pass as arg
wait for someone more qualified to help 4Head
I'm not sure if it's doable by arg.
? @stuck hamlet
Hmm?
didnt get that "doable by args"
I am not sure if you can search someone's points by args.
Anyone knowhow to get the twitch giveaways extension working?
what do you mean?
yea, i know what is it, just dont know what your question was.
I was trying to add my channel to the shortcut thing i options but it just wouldn't save, but it's all good
I figured out there was a button from chat

Hello guys, i have a question regarding the alert box of streamElements. I stream directly from the Ps4 to Twitch. With StreamElements i am able to recieve chatbox notifications.
I was wondering if it is possible to set notification (sound) alerts, which will play whenever someone follows/donates/subscribes etc.? I know this is not possible directly through an overlay on my stream. (because i can't use an overlay directly on a ps4 stream)
However, with Tipeeestream it is possible to launch the alertbox in a browser. I have my computersound connected through a controler on my ps4. So with Tipeeestream, whenever a donation takes place, i hear the sound alert through my headset + on stream. Is there a way to open the alertbox/ overlay of StreamElements in my browser, so that i can use the sound alerts? It would be amazing if i can just use StreamElements for everything!!
Thanks in advance :)
Cheers MeesterPaul
@lament blade yes it is possible. You can create a simple overlay with just an alert box, add sounds, adjust the volume and open it in the browser - it will make sounds on every event. for raids/hosts you will need the dashboard/activity feed or our desktop client (Ground Control) open, everything else will work without it
Hello, does anyone know how to auto trigger commands from time to time? I've tried to use Timers with my !command, sadly it does nothing besides write it in chat.
No I dont think thats possible 🤔
what do you want to triger?
shout out for your social medias or something? 😃
No, that does work, I'm trying to make the bot trigger !roulette and !bingo from time to time, without having to do so manually
Oh... well no I dont think so :/
I mean, !raffle and !bingo, sorry.
I would suggest giving a Timed Command that only says !sraffle
but you said you tryed it and it didn't work
@ebon forum Marvellous!! Thank you big time!
no problem ❤
@lament blade try it out and if you get stuck, poke us and we help with the setup

i dont have paypal. Can i still get my stream in #402919550066229250
so i have an issue with stream elements not showing my hosts, is there a way to fix this
@rancid solstice Check the pinned messages in this channel
Need some help here. for some reason my alert sounds play twice. It used to do this before but now it has come back. No idea what it could be... Possibly how ive got my StreamElements setup?
@steady monolith have you check if your overlay (in OBS) turns of when not active?
When i switch scenes it mutes the previous scene and so on
!multi
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
have you done this @steady monolith 😃
okay i have done that @vital wyvern , but it takes some time for the overlay to appear
:/
!load
Loading time for overlays will vary based on your internet speed, ping to servers, and the amount of data to load in the overlay. Using studio mode, you can preload your next scene before transitioning so that no loading appears on stream. You can also use a longer transition time. https://youtu.be/W8iWsD2Lq3U?list=PL_9rga23xIlJDyaOnO2avbss-PHm28oNs
i highly recommend using studio mode, but be aware that your alert will also come from the other scene you have selected
thanks for helping out Channy :3
no problemo :3
so to my understanding there isnt a way to block the double alert?
of course there is
the options shown above, or having an overlay dedicated to alerts.
Wow thanks @vital wyvern , it works better
now when i stream no more double alert sounds XD
@stuck hamlet when you say an overlay dedicated to alerts, do you mean like "have your main overlay, but then have another one ontop thats just alertS?
would that be possible with 4 overlays?
just bare in mind, each browser source u add, it will push more from cpu
like have the "Alert overlay" but is attached to 4 overlays "Main, Intermission, Hangout, Be right back" etc etc
@gentle imp , yeah dont want that atm, CPU is already pushing it with R6S and other games
Well, shutting them down is the best way to converse cpu then
Well im glad i asked in here, would have been pulling my dreads out trying to figure this out
thanks guys
*guys/girls
you can have 4 scenes setup like Onslaught said and then add that alerts overlay to each one of them, it works ofc, just make sure to tick shutdown source when not visible and try to keep overlays as simple/clean as possible since the more u add the more it will use cpu
kappagen especially is a resource hog
I will try that in the near future (looking to get a custom overlay done, to fit my personality), but atm will keep to what chanpai helped me with
good luck, best is always to keep changing until you find the perfect spot for u
thanks @gentle imp , ofcourse especially with my need for having things right 😆
can't wait to try this later on toddays stream
I've been changing things for 2 years, I'm never satisfied lol
we can never be satisfied 😛

Hello, is someone around?
I'm having issues with streamelements duplicating alerts with any events
hey @west dock
I have removed all alert widgets, and somehow, it is still reproducing sounds (not showing the alert image or text anymore)
I have checked all the layers and nothing there indicates it should show any type of alert
check all scenes on all browser sources and tick the option, shutdown when not visible on all
Where's that option?
!multi
!multi
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
thanks @gentle imp
ty too 😃
Thanks! Let me check that, haha, seems like a common issue?
Ohh you mean in OBS
No, this is not a problem with OBS
I'm testing the overlay only in the streamelements editor
inside a browser
OBS is not open right now and it doesn't happen with other scenes that I also use streamelements
oh
It is just with this particular streamelements overlay that I'm having that issue
check layers and look for 2x alerts widgets
or that you don't have the overlay also open on another window ofc
yeah, I thought it was the tip jar but that doesn't have sounds or anything like htat
I don't have other overlay open, and I removed all alert widgets
to test it out
if you have the editor + overlay open it will double alert
I only have the editor open
wow that is weird
It is... haha
So you don't have a second alert box within that same overlay?
hmmm
and still alert sounds?
nothing on layers?
thats weird, i though my problem was bad before
how sound effect work?
on store
i uploaded a sound (.mp3) but when somebody redeem it nothing appen
@final crescent Did you add the Store Redemption widget to your overlay yet?
where can i add it?
when your in edit mode for the overlay
go to widgets on the toolbar
and under stream alerts there should be a store redemption add button
⤴
so if you don't have anything on your overlay, perhaps would be a good idea to make a new one and see if the problem happens again @west dock ?
or let us know which overlay is it and I'll ask someone with magik powers to check it for u
wELL
@tight harness no i didint added redemption on overlay
I did a new test, I duplicated the overlay
removed all layers
one by one
I have 0 layers, the overlay is practically blank
sound still comes up for alerts
@final crescent Alright, well do that because that's needed for the sounds as well as the alerts 😃
wow, are you sure you don't have obs open or another browser or window? cause let's face it, if no widgets that produce sound this would be impossible lol, only ones that produce sounds are alert and redemptions widgets
or maybe I'm just too sleepy to figure this one out
saved and refreshed?
yes
Hahaha it is like if widget was hidden behind the scenes and just not showing on the layers
It doesn't show the image for the alert
just the sound
omg xD
Oh ok
your overlay is haunted ^^
Ok
Could be a bug
gimme a minute, asking if someone can check it for u, can u tell me the overlay name please?
The name that I gave it its 1080 games
This is the URL I get when editing
ty
ty
So I can add an alert widget again
haha
That was incredibly weird
But now you know in case someone has that issue in the future
hahaha
hehe just don't forget to mark them all to shutdown when not visible or it will dupe alerts
yeah 😃
you're welcome 😃
Heyo! Just looking for info on how to make a custom name for the bot, thanks!
Hey, If you use Tipping/Bot/Overlay from StreamElements you can rename your bot with our Application "groundcontrol"
I just checked your Twitch, you are using StreamLabs as donation service
Oh, so you have to use everything. Including overlay?
Like I mentioned yes
Ok, sorry I was confused. Thanks for the info
no problem 
Hey guys I was wondering how the Twitter module works I have it enabled but my retweets do not show
anyone with experience in using webm alerts with sound with custom html/css?
@winged sundial You haven't added your twitter to the module settings yet
Hey guys, is it possible to add songs to the songrequest queue without using the SR command in chat?
you can add songs to the backup playlist @ember falcon
ahh as viewer nope
unless it works on site, lemme check quick
can't test it now but you should be able to via https://streamelements.com/username/songrequest
Is that something that has to be enabled because I can't see it on my friend's page
if streamer enabled via tip, other wise only via chat
Alright thanks
no problem 😃
what's the variable to select someone randomly in chat $(random) ?
if i set up multiple widgets with different images/sounds, will it select them randomly when someone triggers it?
@knotty spade ${random.chatter}
ty!
@fleet frost if you are talking about alert widgets, you can just create variations, instead of trying to add multiple alert widgets. Depending on the alert you make a variation for, you can do things like make an alert that would just be for donations that are $20+, as an example
yea but what if i want it to like, play a random image/sound when someone follows
out of a group of them
would variations do that
Yes
thats pretty neat yo
Hell yeah 
Hey question about the hype cup. Mine keeps getting empty after each stream. Before it would keep collecting continuously. I recently made another overlay for a different type of scene (IRL). Would that be the problem?
How can I fix this? T_T
hey @crimson girder i'm still having trouble with the video alerts, with the custom html/css not adjusting to volume changes.
hey @split wedge check on cup, what settings u have on slider to refresh cup
there's a token/item limit if that is reached cup is reset
it's called recent events
default is 20, change it to something higher or even max, then adjust if u think it's too filled
Is there a limit on the number of channels you can be an editor on?
I've been added to a 3rd channel, but I'm not seeing it in the select menu. However, it's listed under my profile.
tried logging out and back in or refresh?
Done both.
scroll down? o:
but you are on the channel u got invited from that screenshot
OMG
I can see a scroll bar over there
lel
hahahah 
Happened to me too
oh nvm lol, thx Alice
@gentle imp Ah! That might be the problem. Thank you!! 😄

Now that I've transferred overlays, tipping and all bots to Stream Elements, how do I change the custom name of the bot?
you're welcome @split wedge
@pseudo inlet channels using tipping+overlay+bot can now rename their bot!
Download the latest version of groundcontrol on the right side of your Activity feed https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity or here https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
You can create an extra account with the name of the bot but you can also use your own account.
Pro of using your own is that when you are live, the bot can use sub-emotes but in this case make sure your offline timers don't use any.
If you choose to use an extra account you have to gift a sub to the bot to use sub-emotes.
The OAuth token is the key to your account, so it uses that to talk. If you give it the oauth for your main account, it will speak as you. So if you want it to have a different name, you have to have an account with that name. You can open this page in an incognito window and login with the name of your bot account. https://twitchapps.com/tmi/

Thanks much!
you also need to have streamelements tip on panels for it to work
right now you don't 😃
hmm still shows streamlabs tip page for me
for some reason it didn't save or reset? interesting
Hello, I wish to report a problem. Today during live production the giveaway module stopped displaying data on screen i.e. the Giveaway widget. Had to delete the giveaway event and remake it.
Word, should be good now!
yeah, now option should be there
remember, you have to create the account for the bot to use, unless you want the bot to use yours
Gotcha, doing that now. Thanks much
np 😃
hey does anyone know why the host notifications aren't working anymore?
hey @dire goblet for hosts to work you need to have StreamElements dashboard open or ground control app
ah ok thanks seems like a weird work around?
no, its on purpose
It's explained in the pinned messages of this channel
I just made an account for the custom bot but it's either working as me or streamelements
@pseudo inlet did you get the correct oauth token for that new account?
You need to log in as the bot account before getting the oauth token
Oh it's the auth code for the bot account
Yes 😃
gotcha
thanks and sorry i'll read through that all now
Thanks for all the help you all! Love the improvements to stream elements and look forward to more

How does adding regulars to link protection work
if a person has the regular status (either set through the dashboard, or in chat with !level <Name> 300), then they are exempt from the link protection
ok so i have to add them to regular status thru dashboard then?
User Management > Regulars if you do it via the site 😃
ty
or you add them through chat with the command !level <name> 300
Giveaways can be triggered from chat right? For example !giveaway Game
Not at this time
!giveaway will explain the current giveaway and link to the public giveaway page on streamelements
Oh ok thank you.
any way to play triggers without using !redeem??
Yes, there is a redeem variable now that can be added to custom commands
nice ill try thanks
Hi! I accidentally imported my streamlabs stuff 2x to Streamelements, now it doubled my donations etc.. is there anyway that I can reset this?
I did that, too 😛 I ended up just going through and deleting the extras. Took a bit of time but /shrug
throws weekly "Chat Stats Error" reminder in the chat. ;)
when i use the chat widget, it sends all the chat messages 3 times, how do i fix this xd
@fleet frost That only happens in the overlay manager, it doesn't happen in your streaming software
You don't need to worry about it 
ooo ok
Hello there ^^
i got the same problem like yesterday .. my !store is not working again .. yesterday someone or something fixed it and now it's happening again
and also how can i check if i gave rights to someone to modify something
like one of the mods or something
Mod list: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/users/moderators
Dashboard access list: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
Checking the first thing now
Has anybody figured out a way to do a similar !fight command that gives a 50% chance to both people? I am having a hard time to figure it out with the variables available
The would be the Duel Module.
@loud oracle I heard you cant do sub goals, with new ToS, like at 20 subs cosplay stream etc? is that true?
what was the base code you guys used for the Duel Module?
@lament blade as long as you do not go against the nudity/attire policy, you should still be ok to do these types of sub-goals, but it will depend on the costume itself
i was referring to just having sub goals in general, cosplay was just an example @narrow coyote
nothing in their updated guidelines about that, it was more about attire, behavior, and harassment https://blog.twitch.tv/community-guidelines-faq-update-a322c82b8038
I haven't heard anything about sub goals. Also keep in mind most of this is irrelevant unless you're a larger channel or people really dislike you enough to go out of their way
yeah, but I still want to make sure
well, neither their blog, or actual TOS mention sub goals anywhere
hey, can i get some help in voice suport?
sometimes people are not always readily available for voice support, its best to ask your question/post your issue to get the most eyes on it
Just another friendly reminder on a bug I've been reporting for a few months now that would take less than 5 min to fix. The countdown timer widget can not be hidden in the overlay (does hide in the editor, but not actual overlay) due to the 1 second interval that updates the display value of the timer forcing it to become visible after hiding it. The only way I've found (for the past 2-3 months) top hide it is to set the font size to 0, which is a hassle to do. Apparently this is on the radar, but has not got any love yet. Just making sure it has not slipped through the cracks.
every time i try to download streamelements, the installation keeps restarting like a loop forever. its shows a message saying that the system is busy?
are you talking about the Ground Control desktop app?
yup'
@trim cloud i dont know what you are on about. i can set any timer to invisble, and they dont show up in the overlay anymore ?
like, it works perfectly for me
If you are on Windows, it might be anti-virus interfering with the install, as it should extract some files to %temp%
I just downloaded it, and installed it on a clean Win10 VM with no problem
@latent mural They hide in the overlay editor. but not in the actual overlay used on streams
it hides in the overlay on stream for me as well
If the countdown was active (so the set interval is running to update it) when that 1 second interval fires a hidden countdown widget will become visible again
countdown is active, it's set to invisible, doesnt show on overlay anymore
in the manager
Not sure what to say then, it's possible it's like other bugs where a widget that was created prior to bug fixes is preeminently broken (like happened with raid alerts)
but testing right now if I turn my countdown widget on and off it permanently shows as on
...did you ... SAVE ?
I'll try adding a fresh countdown widget and see if maybe it's a legacy bug
haha, yes, of corse
^^
try deleting the widget and generating it completely new
OR
what often helps
set it to invisible, save, f5, save
sometimes it just .... don't, you know?
same problem
hm... i am looking in my overlay, what i may have done different than you
@trim cloud Are you using chrome and do you have any kind of adblock?
created a new countdown widget, set it to count down to a future date, saved. Countdown widget appears on overlay, then I hide it again and save it. My display overlay shows the countdown hide. but become visible again after 1 second
do you have a "Show this when countdown completes"-option, Vex?
I'm using chrome, and there is an ad blocker, but this happens on OBS as well
try editing it with firefox?
"Show this when countdown completes" is set to off
same for me 🤔
maybe it's because you are counting to a date?
try counting to an time, and see if that fixes it
i dont know, it works perfectly fine for me :<
did you try making it in a new overlay?
just a blanko one for testing purposes
super odd, it's not working for me in multiple browsers, on multiple computers
maybe your overlay is just borked?
if making a new overlay fixes it that means this is a massive problem, so I don't care to head down that road
you can always duplicate, I'll note your issue and see if we can isolate it
but the solution is pretty simple, if the count down runs out, disable the interval that is updating the UI element
like i said, i think you are the only one with that issue rn
Hi vex are we talking about the countdown hiding in OBS when reaching zero?
no, specifically about having the ability to hide a countdown widget that has been running
once that javascript interval is updating the text widget, hiding the element and saving it only hides it for 1 second until the interval fires again
the issue does not appear in the editor, only in the html when viewing in a browser or OBS
Curiousity, whats your internet speed Vex?
Hiding it via the hide layer function then? I've reported this. I'll check on where it stands
It's cool @stuck hamlet I don't get frustrated over bugs, I'm a software engineer, it's just life 😄
:p
correct, toggling layer visibility and saving hides the widget, but only until that interval fires again which updates the counter and causes it to display. And a counter that has run out (and ended) is still updated every second by the same interval, so even dead countdowns can't be hidden.
Cool, it's doing the same to me 😃 I've informed the devs and they seem to know what the issue is

Some broken code from an old developer 
well I'm glad someone else has the bug too! haha
I'd just have the function that sets the timer initiate the interval, and when the timer runs out purge the interval. Having looping intervals run perpetually is not ideal even if they don't cause display bugs, hehe
I'm going to pretend i understood what all that meant 
^
The devs will figure it out, im sure tho.
Cheers 😄
Apologies it took so long to figure it out tho 😃
Hey onslaught, got some news for me regarding chat stats? (please)
I wish i did
me too
no worries, I never expected it to be fixed quickly as it's an edge case bug and I'm sure there are other priorities. Just wanted to stay on top of it every few weeks since it's one I run into often
i have the update, that i got the new "server-error-icon.svg" on my chat stats page. but you would get the same result if you type anything behind the slash, since i'm not in the database. :/
hello?
just go for it @lament blade
Can you put your chat on OBS?
i stream from my ps4 and im trying to use this. does it still work
@lament blade you can use loyalty and chat bot but not overlays
i'm no official, but it should i guess. the streamelements bot has to be in your chat
@dense jackal how
@wraith ocean not atm but chat is soon to be integrated with ground control
Ok, thanks
oh god toma, if they integrate chat into GC, please tell them to give an option to turn it off x.x
streamelements is a mod on my channel, and i have it configured
the leaderboards work but my commands don't
i like my 3-windows setup with obs, chat and gc on one screen, if chat gets integrated into gc, i wont be able to utilize the full screen anymore
@lament blade what is your twitch
EverythingRG
what commands aren't working?
you can
how
...tom, help me out, i dont wana look it up
if you want to set it to something other than points go here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default and look for your points command
rolls around on table
there you can change it or create an alias
an alias is the better way to go because that way
!points or !baseballs will trigger it
^
@lament blade Here's what my command looks like
can i put the chat onscreen without obs
not without obs no
isn't that automatic with ps4 that you have the chat?
ok
i believe he is using a capture card
im using the ps4
yea ps4 has default chat
the ps4 should have an option for showing the chat, at least the last time i used it
ah ok then yeah there should be a chat option for ps4
not without a capture card
I don't stream from ps4 so I don't know, it looks fine tho!
thank you. see ya
is there a way to make a shout out command with the streamelements bot?
i'm not sure, thats why i'm leaving it to the pros 😄
but i don't see why you would need obs for that
i think the bot takes care of that
k
OBS will just be for setting up scenes, and actually streaming. Any chat commands will be related to the bot and OBS will not have anything to do with this
now that i think about it, you do need it for the sound, don't you? ^^
song requests can be played and controlled with ground control
ah okay, haven't used that for now. good to know.
