Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Create a twitch account for the name you want to use
- Ground Control app must be running
Steps to enable custom name
- Sign in to https://twitch.tv with the bot account
- Install and run Ground Control (!gc for download)
- Visit https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and generate an oAUTH token
- Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
- Restart Ground Control (custom name may take a few minutes to take effect)
Mac does not currently support renaming the bot.
Guys, when importing an image into the overlay editor
is there a way to enlarge the image?
the image no longer expands beyond it's dimensions
Solved it, nvm
haha
Why streamelements tweets are showing in my twitch chat.
You can disable them in the Modules settings > Twitter > disable the module or delete StreamElements in the Twitter module settings.
is there a way to copy alerts between overlays?
yes
select the alert box, then at bottom you can copy/duplicate it, then it will be asked to same overlay or to other
oh damn! Thanks @gentle imp
np 😄
awesome man, thank you

i noticed the custom bot name settings always gets resetted at every OBS.live update, is there a way to not kick the custom bot name out? It's been quite a hassle to keep reenabling it
@oak creek First this is an OBS.Live issue so next time I would suggest using this channel: #helpdesk-selive
This is a known issue. We are working on a fix.
In the meantime you can use our tool groundcontrol to get the custom bot name.
Question, when someone Raids me, for some reason both the Raid and host alerts go off one after the other. But I only want the raid alert to go off when being raided. Is there a way to do that without disabling host alerts entirely?
sweet! my bad for mixing up the channel, I'm super looking forward to the future fix
@warm compass You can disable the host alert in the settings of the alert Box you added to your overlay. Be aware, that when you disabl the host alert, there will be no alert when someone is just hosting you.
Thats why im asking if there is a way to have only raid go off without disabling host alerts.
Theres no workaround?
Unfortunately when you have the host and raid alert enabled, both will be activated when a raid comes in. This is because we can't change the way Twitch notifies us.
Question! I'm working on making an overlay and while working on my alert box, I have one specific alert that will not update. It's stuck on the image and sound the overlay came with (I'm tweaking one instead of building from scratch). All other alerts changed and updated properly, but specifically the Subscriber alert will not update. Even when refreshing the page and saving and launching and setting and resetting the alert will it fix, and it doesn't show up correctly in my OBS either. It just is stuck on the stock. Thoughts? Tricks to make it work? Thank you!
@ornate orbit Have you checked the variations of the sub alert?
Yes and disabled them
Question, I got a few subs offline last night. They don't show up in my streamelements activity feed. Wanted to check if they show up in slobs recent events and they do. Anyone know why this isn't being recognized by streamelements?
@steel wyvern Twitch prime (new and resub) and paid subscriptions (resub only) must be shared in chat manually by the person subscribing in order for the subscription information to be sent to StreamElements. For twitch prime, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime. For paid subs, if the share box doesn't show up immediately it will when they refresh the page. https://i.imgur.com/VNJN0Uv.gif https://i.imgur.com/2297EA7.png
@ornate orbit Sorry had to do something else, which overlay is having an issue? I'm gonna take a look at it.
but shouldn't it show up in my recent events when someone subs?
Did they share?
I guess not, i was offline at the time. So my recent events list isn't really a true recent events list then?
We can get a proper total sub count from Twitch, but to show them in the activity feed, they need to share their resub
okay that's another thing, the total sub count widget is off by 3(the amount of subs I got last night offline)
okay, so on my dashboard where it tells me how many subs i got this month, that number is off too
I will say this again - they need to share their resub in order for us to count it.
And on the dashboard - that will always be a monthly by default unless you change the time period.
so streamelements requires users to share their sub for me to even be notified that it happened, and slobs captures everything that happens, whether they sub or not
whether they share or not*
For us yes - can't confirm nothing for SL
wow
@zenith widget I don’t remember the name off the top of my head, and I’m on mobile and won’t be able to check on my computer until after work today (probably almost 5 pm Pacific) but I’ll ping when I get the chance, thank you!
@zenith widget Hi again, I have the music working fine on my channel thanks to you. However, I find that while I can inject a song request and have it skip the backup playlist, my viewers can't. Do you have any idea why that is?
What do you mean? 
So when a backuplist song is playing and I request a song, the backup list song stops and the requested song plays. However the same does not occur when a viewer of the stream does the request.
OH! one second let me test something.
Nevermind
Got it
I once more forgot that a song was part of the backup list.
huh? 
Heya again. Sorry but had to get to bed and couldn't wait for reply. The bug on Hypecup is that when someone is Hypeboss and tries to top up their points, it ignores the setting to allow people to do that and deducts the points from their health. I can post a clip of it doing if you want or I can send the clip privately cos if I remember clips of people's streams are not allowed on here ?
hi, can you help me witch declare Var before customAPi?
I need to declare (skrin) before ${customapi.https://twitch-dj.ru/api/get_track/47468 };
What exactly are you trying to achieve?
@zenith widget Sent it to you personally. You can see that it deducted from the total instead of adding to it.
I want, that after entering the command, the track name, author, and time in minutes @zenith widget
You are using our variable properly
smt like : Track - abcd, author - A, track time - d
but if you are asking how exactly to use that API endpoint, I suggest contacting the people behind that API endpoint.
Ok, so paste the link from nightbot's api call in the ${customapi} variable
with the params
$(eval a=$(urlfetch https://twitch-dj.ru/api/get_track/47468);b=parseInt(a.track_time);c=Math.floor(b/60);d=b%60;'Трек: '+a.title+', Заказал: '+a.author+', Длительность трека: '+c+' мин '+d+' сек')
Yeah, out bot doesn't have math.floor function
@zenith widget Can you see what I mean in the clip ?
kk
and what i should do?
Well I don't see the API endpoint for that site you want to use, to be able to help much.
How can I update the Follower goal widget to make it be correct to the amount of followers I have?
https://twitch-dj.ru/api/get_track/47468/callback/title
try this for the name @glossy tiger
@dense beacon https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session -> goals tab -> edit current goal progress -> save
@stark furnace I saw the issue. What is the name of the overlay?
I dont think, what its correct
Yeah, so it won't work with our bot.
Sorry.
@stark furnace I just replied TalonNail's 10 cheer and it healed him 
What I did was, I just ticked off the boss heal and ticked it back on
clicked save on the overlay and then replayed the his cheer and it healed him
Hey guys! I want to log in streamelements dashboard but I get this eror: {"status":401,"message":"invalid csrf token"}
Clear your cache @queen edge
and use this link to log out from our Dashboard: https://streamelements.com/logout @queen edge
@zenith widget Hmmm - Hmmm Ok then. I wonder why it didn't do it the first time. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks
how I clean cache?
what browser are you using?
chrome
I did it and still
I really need to help with this... I am having this issue like 2 months
Log out from Twitch, clear your cache again, log back into Twitch
then try and login
I do have a more general question - I am thinking about also streaming on YT as well as Twitch. Can I use SE for both at the same time ?
I think so, but you may find it a bit confusing at first as you need to track both activity feeds
and have 2 overlays.
Well I was thinking on YT I could simply put a timer on every few mins saying something like "Please join us on Twitch" ?
Sure you can, but I think you need to user restream.to or w/e its the name of the website
to restream your twitch to youtube, as OBS doesn't support simultaneous stream
Yeh I'm looking into restream.io atm
Just not that Affiliate agreement of Twitch, doesn't allow content to be uploaded or streamed anywhere else for the first 24 hours.
Oh I thought that was partners ?
What I mean is, if you upload past streams to Youtube or clips/videos from it, by the Twitch Affiliate agreement, there is a 24 hour exclusivity
Afaik, partners can exclude clips.
but not vods 
or in general clips are excluded from that exclusivity
Just have it in mind in general
Ok I'll have a read of the Afilliate agreement again.
so far i haven't heard anyone getting in trouble for that 
Thanks
for using restream that is
@zenith widget Still not working, now I cant even log in to my faceboook account...
@zenith widget YUP you are right. It IS in the Afilliate agreement. Damn. Thanks very much. !
@queen edge You have something that is blocking your login to various sites.
but what? Everything was okay...
I think I need to add something to the cookies but i dont know what
but how I can fix it...
this can be caused by ad- or script-blocking plugins
@valid wraith What do you mean its not looping?
I dont have adblock or anything like that...
The audio for my Stream Store Redemption Alert is playing 2~3 times and overlapping each other
all of my other alerts are working perfectly
@queen edge Reboot your router or something - I don't know. Try loggin in with incognito mode
@valid wraith Can you try now?
the redemption items
Still doing the same thing
@valid wraith Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
Hey i have one problem and this is : the chatbox from Streamelements doesnt appear in the Chat same with all Commands when i send: !points the chat does nothing response
Are you referring to the overlay chat widget?
If yes, by default we have set the bot to not show up in the chat widget.
Refreshed the cache and tried again, still having the same problem
@lament blade That has nothing to do with your issue. Check above what I said.
@valid wraith I'm looking at your overlay in the editor - run the 2 redemption items again
@zenith widget no i mean the chat @ twitch expemple: when i write: !points the chatbot doesnt reponse at me or the viewers
Yeah it's one item but the audio is playing twice and overlapping @zenith widget
@valid wraith 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
@lament blade Show me a screenshot of where exactly.
That is a different channel then the one under your discord profile.
?
@lament blade Please connect your Twitch and/or YouTube channel with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
ok
@lament blade The bot is not even in your channel.
@lament blade https://streamelements.com/dashboard go here -> right side -> join channel
Can someone help me import allerts from streamlabs to streamelements?
@zenith widget LOOOOL Thankyou very much. 😅
@vale portal Get the SL import extension for Chrome -> open SL dashboard, make sure you are logged in -> make sure you are logged into our Dashboard as well -> use the import tool
The same problem is persisting, my alert sound is still playing twice but only for Store alerts
@zenith widget I did it, but all I see after is sound file imported, not video :/
@valid wraith Do you have the editor open or something?
When I create a contest, how do I give an answer the the contest that is given? For example, "Will I win the next game?" How do I put Yes or No as a answer
@old zinc Check this video guide we have: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BFP05997Ro&list=PLCDDKlFdScbEwdx5AntcQIS1InkFJwHtv&index=16&t=0s
@zenith widget Okay, its working now, had to refresh my overlay, thanks ❤
Update: with just the editor open it sounds fine, with just obs open it overlaps
When recheck this on EVERY scene
@valid wraith 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
hello
Thank You @zenith widget
is there a way to change the streamelements language ?
I stream in Brazilian Portuguese, the messages are displaying in English
@humble leaf https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default -> right side of the command list is the language choice for the bot.
I need some help fixing my alerts
Got some alerts from nerd or die, they do work with SE, they uploaded fine. forver theyre just permenantly cut off on >>>> side of the screen
and i cant get it to center or atleast move to the left a little
Guess I had another browser source setting it off, thanks!
And I was 99% sure it was that.
@valid wraith
sure?
@humble leaf
That is 'Thank you' in Portuguese
@dusky cipher Is that in OBS or in the editor?
@somber gazelle I tried to DM you in regards to your spotify command, first i want to thank you, it works great! I wanted to ask you, is there anyway to retrive the playlist via command? (like if a viewer wants me to share my playlist?)
Hey! Sadly not, Spotify API on that endpoint doesn't give me that data.
@midnight plaza If you are listening ofthe to the same playlist you could try to create a custom command with the public playlist link in it.
@zenith widget if the stream elements thing where i test them is the editor...its the editor. I cant seem to do anything on xsplit cause the graphic is cut off
@dusky cipher
As for xsplit
make sure the webpage source(or how ever it was called)
matches the same as the overlay size
which by default is 1920x1080
ok ill check it
I did the reverse switched the alert to 720 now it works, I cant change to 1080 on xsplit for unknown reasons ill bother them later about it
Check your stream key.
@zenith widget I was working on tweaking the Purple Wave overlay, and it was specifically the Subscriber notification that was not changing. I could change all other notifications, but only subscriber did not change, even after removing any variations
Aah right. Let me check
Thank you! 👍
my minimize, maximize and close tabs are gone and came move stream elements around how do i get the minimize, maximize and close top right hand corner back
Shift+start button + arrow key down
Start button??
Windows key.
ok that did not work
click on OBS and press F11
@steep ginkgo Are you talking aboput the OBS Live windows like chat and the mixer and acrivity feed?
ty that work
@ornate orbit So what is there suppose to be in that resub image? 
@zenith widget
What you're showing on the left is the main alert. If you have a resub variation, you need to edit the variation with the image as well.
i had disabled them is the problem
Yeah
Let me try again and see if something changed
Well alright now I seem to be having no issues
Dunno what was going on before, but it seems to have rectified itself
And am able to make variations correctly and they're working as intended as well. Thank you!
might be the wrong spot but i cant disable the Stream Tweets in Real-time lately its Benn spamming my chat way too but but will not let me disable it on the sight
Edit or disable the Twitter module in the Modules section of your StreamElements account.
wont let me
Do you get an error message when you try?
THERE WAS AN ERROR UPDATING THE MODULE
how can i get streamelements chat bot to stop posting tweets from twitch support
my chat gets spammed with this now and i dont know why
@strong kernel any Ida why ii'm getting that error ?
ok
thanks, OMG i feel stupid now knowing it was that easy lol
@neat hinge Refresh the page, should be fine now.
ya its good tanks @strong kernel u need a rise 👌 
Anyone know why when i added keywords for a command after pressing enter they are there..but when I reopen that same command and go look the keywords are gone

What command did you add a keyword to?
Are you clicking Submit at the bottom?
yep
ive done it on my other commands
this one is the only one being weird
the keyword even work lol its like wtf
buggy
What keyword are you trying to add?
does obs work for consol gaming?
!console @blazing narwhal
@blazing narwhal Here is a guide on how to setup the most essential tools for streaming from your console, while using StreamElements tools without involving a Capture Card! It's easy to do, take 4 minutes to read and 10 to 15 minutes to setup!
Read all about it here: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
how can i launch overlays while streaming to twitch off a console
You can't.
Consoles are potato.
You need a capture card or remote play, and stream via your PC.
Are you getting your console gameplay on to your PC and using your PC to stream?
Because that's the only way this works.
Consoles do not have the capacity to use overlays on their own. They are potato when it comes to streaming.
boo. ok so i need a capture card???
Or remote play.
alrighty. thanks 😃
Is there a tutorial on how to make a transparent chat overlay on your stream?
Is there a way to change the chat color on the twitch chat widget
@dense vale Set the widget's background to custom. Makes it transparent.
@dry lynx Text settings.
@strong kernel Thank very much!
Text settings for the widget.
Ok thanks
I'm having an issue when attempting to modify media request settings, every time I modify any setting and then navigate away from media request and back to the page all the settings that I changed are reset back to what they were previously. Is there something that I'm doing wrong?
What browser are you using?
Chrome
What's your Twitch username?
I'm moderating for pikmin267
Permissions on my account are set to super moderator
and I also have been given full control of the channel
What are you trying to change?
Might have something to do with this.
Can someone walk me through on how to make my stream less laggy?
whats the company registration number for the SE Pay
EIN.
ok
Greetings, 
My chat notifications and chat commands stopped working a couple days ago. Already tried:
- Log out > clean cache > log in.
- Tell the bot to part channel > log out > log back in >tell the bot to join the stream.
- Mute > unmute.
- Unmod > Mod
Any other suggestion that might help with this issue
? thanks
/unban streamelements 
is not banned
Are you using OBS.Live or Ground Control? 
Ground control
Disable the custom bot name feature
That did the trick! Thank you! 
it spoke for a second 

ok it should be fine now.
You are a lifesaver, KeiZar, thanks a lot! 

How do i make my stream stop lagging
@lament blade For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Or you could give us more info on what is lagging. @lament blade
You might have internet issues 
I would suggest to check your internet speed, while not streaming.
This also has nothing to do with our tools and features.
You showed your download, during stream upload is the factor of flawless video
no rush but is anyone still looking into my issue?
No update on the issue unfortunately. I will poke the devs again just in case.
mmks, thank you
@elfin portal Just to make sure, you did try to log out and log back in right?
From past conversation, you've not used us for a long time and decided to use us recently right?
@elfin portal Can you try again now to logout from our dashboard and back in?
https://streamelements.com/logout -> http://streamelements.com/ connect in the middle with twitch
ok gimme a sec
top right says sneko now
recent events only shows follows doe
no hosts raids or bits
Events can't be gathered unfortunately.
As we've missed them, expecting events from your old name 
Sorry.
events cant be gathered like ever?
From this point forward we will gather and show you events from your proper name.
Its jsut that we can't gather any past events.
sooo uhhhh.... im a moderator for a streamer... and on my side it says im not in any other channels. but on their side it says i am....
plz hlep
What do you mean by "im not in any other channels"?
Thats the managers page - channels you manage.
@forest umbra To invite managers to your dashboard, Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and scroll down to Settings. Click the drop down arrow to expand your channel managers and then create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control) Check this video out for more help: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0
that video helped a lot.. thanks so much
How do I put my overlay on?
@tacit lagoon To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
I need some help please
@vestal stratus Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
Whenever i try to stream no matter my settings, mt game lags but not obs
@vestal stratus Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
Can you provide a previous log file?
Follow the links in the analyzer
Thank oyu]
you*
The thing I don't understand is last year I tried streaming and it worked but the issue was the internet, I moved out got better internet and now I'm getting this weird lag
Ingame lag yes, my internet is 40mbps so I don't have an issue with that
yeah sure. thats 4mb/s download
Unless that is your upload, but still.
Just to point out. This has nothing to do with our tools and features and even if I send you over to the OBS guys at their discord, they will most likely tell you the same thing.
Look at the analyzer links and sort out the warnings.
speed really isnt reliable if youre streaming on wifi.
its not as stable as a fixed connection
Yes but the stream is perfectly fine when I test it but my game has visible lag and sticks around 30-60 fps
I usually get 150+
then its the game. as keizar said, the analyser has links to help try and fix it
Thank you guys 😃
hello
can you advise me?
I want to change message in module DUEL
sorry for my english
when i write command that i change
i have request "@patronusfoxx, @wispy hollow wants to duel you for 100 рысюблей, you can !accept or !deny within 2 minutes"
i want to change this text
but i dont find where i can change it
i can customize only win words
i cant change accept or deny message
you cannot change those commands, it's a requested feature though but you can change language to your own and I think that will also change bot responses @junior heart
to change language go here https://streamelements.com/dashboard and look to the top right
this is the best atm, but you can upvote that request/idea here https://strms.net/ideas
I've done everything in the link, could my issue be because I've got 2 monitors somehow?
its only change language in site. i need translate message to russian
@vestal stratus no
@junior heart Go here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default -> right side where it says english -> click and change language
@vestal stratus Giving us a new log won't help.
@vestal stratus For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Thank you, sorry I thought a new log would show different reasons because I changed things xD I'm slow today
@zenith widget thanks it help, but i have another problem..i change names of !accept and !deny commands to my language...how i can change it in this message?
and nothing i can do?
No.
i can only write to ideas and wait that my idea be liked by someone?
Hopefully
thanks for help
how i can add idea? I dont find button
You must login/create account in the ideas board.
i do it
hello
i need some help
but my englisch is verry bad
end i don't now how i must explen my problem
What is the issue you are experiencing? @tidal summit
You can break it into steps:
0. What you were trying to do.
- What you did.
- What went wrong.
- Screenshots if you got 'em.
sorry rong room
@tidal summit You want a follower bar on your overlay? What do you want it to show?
that see how many follers en how muts i most toe reeds my goal
Hi when someone follow me i wanna to show his name on my streamscreen how i do it ? anybody can help me thanks
there are a lot of widgets for Followers and goals, have you tried them out in the overlay editor to see if one of them works for you? @tidal summit
@candid dawn you can use the Alerts widget and enable "Follower Alert" 😃
if by stream screen you mean your overlay 😃
@cedar lynx when someone follow me i wanna to show his name on top with a GIF
the Alert widget is where you can add a GIF and set a message to include the username 😃
Where i find alert widget
same als ravel chard
In StreamElements, click to edit the overlay you are using. You'll find the widget under the Widgets tab at the top of the editor area.
@cedar lynx im using OBS.Live
tanx find them
OBS.Live is a plugin to enhance your OBS software with the StreamElements options. If you are using a StreamElements overlay you'll need to go to your StreamElements account in a Browser to manage overlays.
@candid dawn ^
How do you show your donation goal? I have the element set on the editor but I don't know how to control it
Should i go at My Overlays?
https://gyazo.com/227f8005a871b74783ba01d0719def93
I don't know that I want to change anything, I just don't know how to have it shown on stream
it looks like you've hidden it. check under "Layers" if the little eye is crossed through 😃
Ah, that's done it. Thanks!

Actually actually one last question - how do you reset the goal?
the amount that fills the bar? you can manage that under the Data tab at the very top of the editor screen, under Goals @ember kraken
Woah, that's a lot of new options that I didn't think to check on. Lovely, thanks again
are you currently using one of these overlays in your OBS scenes @candid dawn ?
No problem Max, glad to help!
you'll pick the overlay you want to show when you stream and add it as a source to your desired scene, whichever one you are using live is the one you should click the "Edit" button for
tanhx for the suport anne verry use full\
happy to help LTP 
dumb question
so recently i learned that the tipping system and the fancy stuff is actually from like plugins and other stuff, one of which is streamelements. Downloaded it, looks simple. I live in japan, don't have access to paypal. is that what the g2a is? like an online version of paypal?
PayPal is online 😉 But yes basically G2A is another online service that facilitates online payments/donations from others to your personal (or perhaps business) bank account. The differences between these types of services tend to be: 1) geographic areas served and 2) the fees levied per transaction.
But also, to my knowledge and brief research just now, you are able to get a Japanese PayPal account.
is it like a paypal.jp instead of the paypal.com?
shtafakap
IEs
i guess i should reserach the pros and cons of paypal vs g2a
they are separate services, you don't need either to sign up for one 😃
but yes I encourage you to do a bit of research between the two! 😃
ok thank you!
@cedar lynx i did my overlay but how can i enable it on OBS.live
whta's the command for the media request?
IDK the bot command or if I can use it but here's from the bot instructions @candid dawn : To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
TY ill try

did you use the URL given to you from "Launch" to add in OBS?
why aren't the alerts not showing up on stream?
YES
@sullen oxide do you have the overlay browser source added to your streaming software?
wut
hello i am using stream labs and i got a animated apex legends overlay on it but im wanting to know if i can edit a part of the overlay on stream labs and where i need to go to do it
@candid dawn that sucks! I'm not sure how to help from here without seeing your source setup in OBS
@neat cipher this is the Discord for StreamElements, are you in the right place?
i was told by streamlabs to come over here and ask yall
If you are using StreamLabs they will need to help you!
thats what i thought lol
do your source settings look like this?
also you should probably place your source above everything else if you want it to appear on top of it 😃
it's currently below all of your capture sources
looks like it's loading! on this last screenshot you just need to make it visible now 😃
the little eye is crossed out which means the source is disabled
awesome!!
but do u know how to do straem with more fps?
I stream creative so I know less about FPS settings because I don't need to mess with them for what I do
ahh yeah. I mean I'd experiment with lower bitrate and 30FPS until the quality in your stream dips too far
I still don't know the bot commands
In StreamElements you can find default commands and create new ones under Bots > Chat commands @sullen oxide
if i do like 20fps does my stream goes more frozen?
never tried that
I know 30fps is standard for video generally speaking. there are lots of settings that could be affecting though. you might get better support for that stuff in the OBS discord.
no problemo! 
so hi again, I want to ask on how to add variations of the same alert on streamelements? Is it even an option?
yes definitely an option! I assume you're using the alerts widget already? 😃
erm I guess so, sorry I am so noob 😄
I mean... I configured everything on streamelemnts page
okay so you have an overlay set up then right? 😃
right yes
awesome, okay so one of your layers should be an alert box/widget
no worries 😉 okay once there, select the alert box. on the left hand side the menu will change to the alert box settings. you'll choose the alert you want to make a variation for. Click the gear icon next to it.
ooo yes I found it! why I didnt see that before
that'll load in the default alert settings. underneath that you'll see the "Variation settings" options, which you can click on and use to manage all the variations your heart desires
it's a lot to take in, no worries 😃
hehe
oh another question
so when I first set up everything, I used a custom font, it's called Urae Nium. Everything was fine... when my PC freaked out for some reason and I had to do a reset, I couldn't see the fonts on the overlays so I thought I would probably need to set the fonts again in PC so I did that but they didn't work?
just check that they are installed on your computer again
and test the alerts in your streaming software, for me the custom fonts are hit and miss within the StreamElements browser editor itself
and double check the name of the font that the computer is using
for example my font name is "Trailmade" but the CSS actually wants to see "Trailmade Regular"

Any idea how to get the new replay widget into an existing overlay? It makes its own overlay and I can't seem to figure out how to move it
haven't looked at the new feature but you should be able to use the Duplicate feature to add it on your existing overlay 😃
Is there somewhere I can read how that works?
just click the layer you want to duplicate, and then click the duplicate button (next to the "Layer" section title with the red badge). follow the prompts 😃
Ah, thank you - I was trying to do it from the 'My overlays' screen
ahh yeah, glad you got it sorted!
im having problems importing streamlabs to streamelements after i downloaded the chrome extension and logge d on both sites it says an error occurred whe n i start the import process pls help asap i need to stream today and i dont wanna waste time
Are you logged in to both the StreamElements dashboard and the StreamLabs on the same time in the same chrome browser?
Please try to log out of both dasboards and log back in.
should i remove them from connections in twitch settings too?
I don't think this will be necessary.
i relogged in, still same error
please open the console in chrome by hitting F12. reload both pages and try to start the import. If there is an red error message in the console, please provide a screenshot here.
You could try to give me editor acces on both dashboards via PN, so I can try to import at least the alert box.
Have you checked the alert box not being there?
Hey Guys, is there a variable to always display the name of the user that i @'d ?
like an equivalent of the (touser) of nightbot
${user}
but it would go to me if the person i @ is not there
Do you need to @ someone who is not in your chat? Cause I think this will not be possible.
i modified extension to have permission on click on both sites after i did that and i clicked import is infinite loading now idk if i should wait or what
You could just use the ${1} variable, but this will not check if the person is written correctly and will just take the word entered.
yo guys, I am helping a friend out with her "now playing: song" thing in her stream. I use it in my own stream. but that widget I use in my own stream is not there anymore. anybody that can help =?
@floral garnet Please wait a few more minutes. If it does not change, try to close chrome completely and reopen it and try to import again.
@primal drift Wat is the widget you used in your overlay?
in my overlay it is just called song request, but now it is called media request in her overlay
there is the widget "Media Request". use this.
where is he playing the music?
the only other widget I know is the "Current song".
she is playing music from the media request thing
@primal drift then add the media request widget. is she using the website to control the music?
yes I have done both of that
now I am using my own computer for the testing, since we live in 2 different countries
@floral garnet Please try to clear your browser cache, try to reinstall the extension, restart your browser and relog to both dasboards.
So when you are in your overlay editor and you added the widget to the overlay and open a second tab in chrome and go to the media request page and hit the bplay button and the button show on stream, is it playing then?
Are they going to export all time points in .csv?
who do you mean with they?
the song is playing but the widget doesent say it is playing a song 😄
you pressed the "show on stream" button?
where is that?
in the medai request settings in the StreameElements website.
@copper wolf i did still nothing
it is no such setting benno
can't i talk to a streamelements dev or the one that created that extension for chrome??
You can export all the points using our API. All the data are fully accesable: https://docs.streamelements.com/v2.0/reference
@scarlet tiger Or what KeiZar posted: ⤴
Thank you very much

@primal drift
@twin sentinel that is so the video can get shown on stream -_-
@floral garnet I am sorry, as I don't know why the import is causing these problems for you. You could try to disable all uneccessary extensions. Maybe one of them is blocking SE import.
@zenith widget do u know why when i try to import stream labs into stream elements gaves me error? i already did everything like cleaning chrome , reinstalling extension, loggin in and out of both websites but nothing , can u help?
@primal drift Then you can hit the hide on stream button to just hear the audio.
yes
it doesnt display errors related to the extension but of the website
i posted a screen earlier up here
yes
@floral garnet Unfortunately, I was told the import tool doesn't work in incognito mode
@twin sentinel then this happens
So here is the deal. Benno is a trusted fellow - he will ask you couple of things if he can try for you, as I have to unfortunately go.
i dont have incognito mode on sry i misurenderstood on the other guy
i found the error logs of the application
i think those can help much more
those are the live errors that happens when i click import
@primal drift Please try to readd the widget.
@twin sentinel
I have already benno, and I have no clue why the widget I use on mine was removed 😦
@floral garnet I'll DM these images to a staff member so they can be looked at in more detail.
What version of chrome are you using?
I think the widget got reworked, as we switched MediaRequest LIVE. @primal drift
If you want, you can DM me an editor link to your account and I can try to take a look.
it is not my acount that is the problem. and I cant send out from hers acount 😄 I am a full moderator on her streamelements 😃
@twin sentinel how do i check what version is?
Select the three points in a vertical line on the top right > Help > About Google Chrome. There you will see the version number.
hi everyone, ive just downloaded obs live and its saying i need to setup the but and donation stuff, but i tried importing that stuff from streamlabs and it just didnt come through?
@primal drift You could just try to delete the widget. Close the browser, open it again, log back in and readd thw widget. Then try to show the video on stream as described above.
If this does not work,please send a screenshot of the whole screen with the layers visible.
@valid flicker Do you see the tips in the histroy on the website: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/list?
@twin sentinel lmao man u wont believe... chrome was not updated and some services from google was disabled, what i did was: reactivating the 3 services and update chrome, then i reloaded both pages and it worked lmao
@floral garnet Did you see the old version you were on? Do you remember that?
it was a version from 2018
but now i got another problem lol , when i test the overlay from streamlabs they're blank and doesnt display nothing
toggle on and off the custom code option in the alerts
thx
!welcome @stable tree
@stable tree Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
i have a spanish support
#🇪🇸︱español
A spanish support will be there to help you asap.
I suggest explaining your problem there and then wait for a response
You can also try to explain your problem here. But I can just assist you in english.
i can't change name's bot
Please just use one support channel at once. Rippz0r is trying to help you in #🇪🇸︱español
you have a StreamLabs tipping link, you dont meet the requirements
i can't access the bot setup anylonger after leaving from the test tipping page
Log out of twitch and log back in to twitch and the log into the StreamElements bot.
unfortunatly it didnt help. started loading setup and closed it asap
@stable tree what options are you searching for?
i need change bot name
doing my settings in OBS Studio
@faint arch What test tipping page do you refer to before you could no longer access the bot?
Are you trying to log in to the botsettings here?: https://streamelements.com/
@stable tree Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Create a twitch account for the name you want to use
- Ground Control app must be running
Steps to enable custom name
- Sign in to https://twitch.tv with the bot account
- Install and run Ground Control (!gc for download)
- Visit https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and generate an oAUTH token
- Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
- Restart Ground Control (custom name may take a few minutes to take effect)
Mac does not currently support renaming the bot.
You have to meet every requirement.
- Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
i cant understand this step
when im in obs i click on activity feed 3bars go to stream settings customise bot name 3rd point: add your stream elements tipping link
@stable tree You first have to make sure you meet this requirement: StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
what?
in Twitch's official help guide for Panels: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/2416760-how-to-edit-info-panels
...
This is StreamElements. You have to add our tipping link to meet the requirements.
@faint arch What happens after you select that option? Is there any error message?
I tell him I already have it on.
you don't buy a Porsche and tell them you want to use a Fiat engine 😛 you get what they sell you, it's how it works
if you don't use StreamElements donation link it will never work
no error message it just tries to load the settings and then it instantly loads back the standard display with transition between scenes
rlly? @gentle imp -.-
yes, I told you on the other channel
mmm okey
donation link is a must have
after changing it might take sometime until the option to change name shows up
that is if you have all other requirements done too
@faint arch I am sorry, but I don't get your problem here fully.
You are trying to set up the custom bot name in OBS.Live right?
Also if this is a OBS.Live problem, let's hop over to #helpdesk-selive
ok
okey
I already put donations
oooh
yeah
its work
mmmm
my personalized bot dont response
@stable tree You followed all the steps to rename your bot and meet all the requirements?
Is there a way to add watchtime leaderboards?
@terse tartan Are you using OBS.Live?
@stable tree Please kill the ground control using the task manager and restart it please.
how to add com via chat for moderator?
!cmd add !cmdname Put cmd message here.
Anyone knows how to setup sound effects? I mean push a button and play a specific sound effect?
With StreamElements you can just trigger sound effects using a command afaik.
can you be more specific? sorry I am noobie
You can type a command in your twitch chat and the sound will be played. I think we can't combine it with the press of a button.
I see, is this coming from customer support or just a user of StreamElements?
I am a support hero for StreamElements, so I am a kinda verified support volunteer of StreamElements.
Is there a way to edit the time people watched the stream for and the command shows in minutes. How do I change that?
@glossy tiger After you created the command use this to set it to modlevel:
!cmd options <cmdname> -level 500
people are able to clip with the !replay function, but it doesnt show on stream
You copied the widget to your overlay?
I clicked the link, made it an overlay, used it in obs
You followed the instructions in the widget?
yes i did @twin sentinel
thx @twin sentinel
there is also a video in #widget-share please take a look at this, too.
And last question , how does !watchtime works? it always shows 0sec
You have to enable the loyalty system to get the watchtime. Every 10 min the watchtime will be added.
@lament blade I am sorry, as I haven't tested the widget myself, I have no idea how to set it up properly. But maybe another supporter has any ideas on this.
were i can enable it? Oo
I think so. The watchtime will now be added every 10 min.
If anyone has any replay widget related questions feel free to tag me 
@wanton mango @lament blade has tired to set up the widget but it does not show on stream
I think there may be a permission bug, I need to look into it right after I finish this pizza 
🍕 Dang ol permissions.
i was wondering how would i create a command that would spam my emotes? im wanting one for when i get subs i can have a row of my emotes as a hype?
You can change the bot Name to your own channel Name and let it use the emotes in the answers in chat or gift the bot a Subscription to your Channel.
1800 perhaps?
What Resolution do you want to Output?
720p
What fps?
where should i post querstions about bot?
@little zodiac In here for help or #general-chat general questions 
Are you using Ground control?
yes
Please kill all instances of Ground control using the task manager and start ground control again.
@wanton mango i'll explain what i did, clicked the link to the widget, it made an overlay for me, after that it showed me the page with the API's and with the key, I added the key in my overlay 'key' input, and copied the link when i saved it into a browser source
hit or miss?
How do I remove a quote?
!quote remove <nr>
Is there a way to edit the master css for an overlay outside of overwriting it in OBS? Removing the default padding from each widget is a pita.
You can enable custom CSS in the alertbox settings in the alertssettings.
I get that, but I need to do it for all the alert boxes, and changing all the fonts, padding, margins, etc for each is a pain. - unless I'm misunderstanding
how do I add a idea to the streamelements?
Why do I answer "invalid user input" when typing bot?
Can you elaborate please?
I can't seem to type in my stream title information, why is this happening? It worked just fine yesterday but not right now
@frank pine Where are you trying to change your title?
Hi wondering what this means I tried to play with it at different settings but it'll lag off and on still using the cam but when alt tabbed with game still running and camera theres no lag
tried it at 24/25 & 30 fps and different res but still pops up

Hey I’m having lots of trouble setting stream labs up im streaming on my PS4 and I’m trying to get overlays can some one help please
You are at the StreamElements Discord. If you are havin trouble with StreamLabs you would need to ask their support.
No no no I just need help setting it up idk how to
Didn’t know if this was the place to ask or not for help
It's not the place to ask for Stream Labs help as this is the StreamElements discord 😃
Omg I’m stupid I meant elements
@proven nimbus Are you using OBS Studio?
My bad
You can only use overlays when streaming on your PS4 when you have got a capture card.
yeah its obs / studio
@proven nimbus For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
not sure what i’m doing wrong but i’m not able to hear my alerts audio in my vods. i’m using obs. should a create an audio input channel for my streamelements overlay? thanks in advance.
do other desktop sounds come through @fervent path ?
@cedar lynx i don’t really have any other desktop sounds. is that what i should use for my overlay? input audio for desktop?
yes if you are on PC there should be a Desktop Audio sound input you can turn on/off for sounds to show up on your streams
if you were playing music, etc. from your computer this is how it would come through. your browser sounds are the same 😃
@cedar lynx got it. thank you so much!! have a good rest of your day!
you too!
Hei! Can someone help with updating a timer in chat? I'm mod in a stream and I know how to do it from the streamelements dashboard, but is there a way to do it from the stream chat?
There is not.
Oh ok, thank you 😃
has anyone experieced the bot sending the message multiple times
im having that issue currently
Did you rename it?
yeas
Close and reopen Ground Control.
but i just renamed it as myseld
i did thart earlier and had the same issue
@stray veldt Yes StreamElements has.
How do you import everything from the cloud, I'm on a new computer so
ok seems likke that worked
You can log in at the new computer to your dashboard
Note, we don't store the scenes collection from OBS.
dashboard from the site?
IS there something to auto setup settings on the program?
I have a question
been trying to install Kappagen as an overlay, watched youtube videos, read guides. Still cannot get emotes to show on screen, they seem to spawn of the side somewhere and never make it to the channel 😦 Don't know how to move them
is there a way to get streamelements to not post when someone does !points
@blissful plinth Screenshot your widget settings and overlay editor view and share here. Don't show the URL.
@median stirrup No.
ok
It either responds or you disable the command.
how can I disable it
The Default commands section of your account.
not sure how I fit all that in a screenshot, bsides, top and left seem to change any time I click something
hello everyone, I am having a issue that i was hoping is a settings issue. I have turned the delay off for my stream but i am still seeing about a 15 second delay, is that normal or is it my upload speed most likely? Thank you for any helpful suggestions.
Hello. I came across this article from Variety,. https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/streamelements-releases-profanity-filter-bullying-on-twitch-1202860436/ . It says "The streamer can set the filter to automatically replace a word with another amusing word or emote if they choose" is that true? I've been unable to find this feature in the settings.
Oh I see, it is for tip alerts not for the chat.
Nothing can replace messages in the chat.
That's what I thought and why I was confused. Thanks for the quick response.
There's a banned word filter you can use to time people out.
👍 I will check it out. Thanks again
Hey guys, not sure if I am in the right spot. But I am having trouble streaming fortnite through obs live on my pc. I cant seem to figure out how to stop the lag and stutters, i lowered my bit rate to 1500 and I even lowered my output resolution to 1280x720 and still lag in game while the stream stutters. Can any one help me or have any tips, thanks ahead of time!
@nova ether For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Sorry, new to StreamElements, i am running into an issue when editing overlays. The editor window gets stuck in an about 60% maximum size
Can you take a full screenshot so I know just what you're looking at?
@weak lake Please connect your Twitch and/or YouTube channel with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
Hurrah, now we don't have to ask you every time. 
Okay.
So.
It's not stuck.
You changed the size to 720p.
The assets don't scale with it.
oh
Keep it at 1080p, add it to OBS at 1080p, and use Ctrl+F to fit to canvas.
Thank you
hello! is there a minimum file size for image uploads? i couldnt find any information on it; i cant upload a png image that's 45 KB
What browser are you using?
safari
Try Chrome.
ok thanks!
I have a user with more than enough points, but he cannot redeem any items through my stream store. It keeps giving him an error saying he doesn't have enough. He's able to check points, gamble, duel, etc but not redeem. Any ideas?
Have him log out and log back in to StreamElements.
Ok, thanks
hello
need some help
for some reason my twitch chat is not showing up in my streams
it was yesterday
hmmm
@frigid radish The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
why is my twitch chat grayed out? it is not hidden in settings
@frigid radish Click on the widget -> layers on the left -> find the chat widget highlighted -> eye icon\
Most like hidden.
Also please don't post in multiple channels.
Are host notifications working on twitch? I was hosted today but did not get a chat or overlay alert that I was T_T
@jolly basin Due to recent changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:
- All manual host events (0 hosts included and if filter set to 0)
- All auto host events with at least 1 viewer
Thanks @zenith widget so just the ones that show on the streamelements main page when I'm logged in? I'll have to check my filter settings
Hello is there anyway to fix the slight echo when showing media requests on stream
@jolly basin I forgot to answer - yes.
@bitter lance 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 a lot
Hey Friends! Is it possible to adjust the media request volume separately to the desktop volume? I'd like it to be a little quieter, but can't find any adjustment options..
there's a slider for volume in it
if you can't find it you can always use !volume xx on chat
Oh damn I'm blind.. Hahah, thank you!

Hello - bot commands question. There's a time.until variable which lets me show the time until a specific date, but I want to show the time since a certain date ie. "We've been streaming on Twitch for 2 months, 4 days". I tried time.since and it didn't work. Anyone have a solution for this?
We don't have such a variable unfortunately.
anyone know of a workaround with a 3rd party API? 😃
I can't find any external one.
Please guys someone help me!... i do all for put command elo for LoL but streamelemets write this.
The API listed in the #command-share command seems to be down. There is nothing we can do about that.
Add from Chat
!cmd add elo ${customapi.http://gotme.site-meute.com/query.php?action=gamerank&id=LOLSID&channel=${channel}&r=REGION&user=${sender}&bot=StreamElements}
i just understeand this part. i need write this in chat of twitch ?
!cmd add !elo ${customapi.http://gotme.site-meute.com/query.php?action=gamerank&id=LOLSID&channel=${channel}&r=REGION&user=${sender}&bot=StreamElements}
yes
i do it
but say that command there is
and if i need modify i put !comando edit elo
i do the same
ok ill try now
ok ty i modify the command but now give me another error 😐
ModeratoreVerificatoStreamElements: Error: API is currently in maintenance mode.
Like I said - the API is down and we can't do anything about it.
ah ok
Some days it works some days it doesn't work and returns that message
Not that I'm aware of.
Afternoon. My sub goal keeps losing the goal part of it oddly. I've reset it once but it keeps breaking.
What do you mean it keeps loosing its goal part?
The numbers vanish.
I update it every month with the new month but I've reset it once and it fixed it but it's vanished again.
Which overlay is has the goal widget?
I use my own. It's totally custom.
Elaborate on what a custom means in this case.
A custom widget in an overlay or some external thing?
No. It's the sub goal widget that is the issue.
Actually, ignore me entirely. I am a total moron.
😃
Ok, so where is this sub goal widget? In which of your overlays?
I've fixed it. The new month was overextending the space in the box hence why it was clipping.
Move along people, just another stupid person here to see HAHA. Thanks @zenith widget

Third time I've come in here to ask for help and fixed it myself by just not being dumb haha.


Is it possible to group personal overlays? I don't use the themes but it does mean I end up with LOADS of overlay screens with no preview image and it's confusing.
I think the grouping is not possible, but the preview picture is defined by the game you set the overlay to. So you can set the game and change the overlay preview image.
I'd pay good money for custom grouping.
You can upvote the idea in our ideas board: https://streamelements.helprace.com/i520-overlay-manager-allow-for-custom-overlays-to-be-grouped and https://streamelements.helprace.com/i521-overlay-manager-set-custom-thumbnails
I would like to set up a goal cup for daily subs any tips
i was told it could be done
Is there any support in Stream elements where I could ask for help regarding obs problems and etc?
@dense beacon If its OBS.Live #helpdesk-selive
@grave lance Goal cup? we have a goal widget which is a progress bar.
I am using obs.live thing. But it's still OBS so to say.. ?
oh ok i have that already set up, I thought there might be a way to set up a daily goal cup like 0/3 and just restart it each day
guys, just one quick question, when i hide something in overlay, the OBS still loading that on the Scene? I mean i hided some few things on my overlay, should i remove to get more performance or can i just leave it there?
Did you click on save?
Yep
ooh wait your question is about something else
Haha =p
if you have it hidden, it won't load at all.
I stand corrected @ancient otter the hidden widget actually does load, but as pure css its just hidden 
Ohh but if i have like... 4~5 things animated hidden, you recommend to remove or I'll not receive that much performance as i'm expecting?
Most likely no improvement as it will still be playing, but hidden.
Not sure on this.
It's okay it's using like 10~12% of CPU i think my PC can hold it haha
If I were you I would create a copy of that overlay and remove your elements, so there will be easy go back
Hmm, that's a nice idea too so if i like something from that overlay i can just copy the layer
Yup.
Yea i'm gonna do this :)
In some time you will have overlay with "weird stuff" and 123451235 widgets there
Haha like a folder to save all the thing XD
thanks
Hi! I n longer have my activity feed or twitch chat in obs live. Is there a way to egt it back?
no*
mean i know i can get the twitch chat in docks but i cant find the activity feed
oof thank you @gentle imp

i stream from xbox one.. just curious if i can add store items without using a OBS?
You can but it won't trigger a sound / alert on screen. Only in chat.
gotcha
