Nope. CC donations go through that method while paypal is strictly paypal.
Because that's how the system works.
garbage system ig
@crimson bough Seems like it was a momentary hiccup as it was doing the same for me but is loading now.
One week before i could stream Among Us on Twitch with my settings but now its always laggy but the settings are the same please help me
@lament blade Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
song request commands get marked off as soon as I go out of the tab

Hello, my chat stats disapear. I didn't change my twitch name, only some elements on my profile and now there are no more datas in my chat stats on streamelements dashboard... can you do something to fix it ? Thanks in advance for the answer!ID 5f7c363d342e1e56e8c0e44b
Hello. I'm trying to add a custom name for my streamelements bot. I've done all the pre-requisites (the Obs.Live plugin and all of the rest of the stuff as screenshotted) but the option doesn't show up in GroundControl. I've tried everything including uninstalling/reinstalling ground control. Need help. Any ideas?
Why not OBS.Live?
As in do it through Obs.Live? I tried that too, doesn't work.
Try this
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- In the Custom bot name field select Set custom bot name, not your already existing username (with capital letters). Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
Im just curious I had a few donations yesterday through PayPal but there still pending. How long does it take before they go through? These are my first donations. Is there anything I need to do on my end?
if a viewer tipped through PayPal but no information appears in your StreamElements account, this generally means PayPal has held the tip for verification. Until PayPal clears the tip and sends back a confirmation to your StreamElements account, no information will appear there and no alert will play, as that confirmation is the only way for us to be aware of a successful transaction. If you believe there may be an issue with the transaction, you'll need to contact PayPal support as StreamElements is only a passthrough service and never actually gets involved with the transaction or touches the money
Yep this is what I did through Obs.Live. When I tried sending the test message, it doesn't work
Redo it. This mentions the 3rd option.
Just removed the bot, and reauthorized. Still not working
Hi there! Still having trouble with my shoutout chat command. The user variable is very much not working for me.
Ok Thank You. I did get the alert on stream and the donation is listed on my SE History they were just still pending in PayPal. May just need to wait longer I reckon.
@mild pulsar What's the response you have for the command?
@stable pier "1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties."
Try that.
Cool. I'll give it a shot. Thanks. Give me a few
Try this Check out ${1}, they are playing ${game ${1}} at https://twitch.tv/${channel ${1}}
Simply use their name following the command.
Same issue unfortunately.
I did try that for a workaround and it did work. Just wasn't sure if there was a way to keep using user.
I think you'd want touser and not user in that case.
If one was having issues with Video on Command, would they be in the right section?
Video on command?
One of the widgets in the theme gallery.
Hello, my sister subbed to my channel and I didnt get a notification from streamelements and it doesnt show on the activity feed. I downloaded my sub list and she is on there. Can you please fix this? She subbed on stream and its not cool I didnt get to thank her then.
Hey, so I am trying to run a chat command !giveaway but do it as a chat command not with the "Giveaway loyalty tab". It is giving me two responses. 1: my chat command 2: "ther is currently no giveaway runnning!!!!"

Hi, I wanted to stream on twitch, but the chat for the stream elements plug in always says connecting to chat, and never actually connects. What should I do?
@lament blade StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
ok, I'll try that as well!
Good Afternoon:
I was trying to link my YT channel to my pre-existing Streamelements Twitch channel but mistakenly logged in as YT channel. I didn't logged in as twitch and then linked both channels, now when I try to add a channel to either my YT or my twitch account on Streamelements it says "Channel is already claimed". I have tried logging off/on from either or and linking them, but nothing. Any help?
@bronze plume Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
@bronze plume You can find your JWT token on your account channels page (Show Secrets to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME: This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
DM both the tokens to @tight harness
Yeah I just wanted to duplicate/share overlays; I will do that thank you
Anyone know if it's possible to get back the default cheer alerts, like the animation, sound etc. I just deleted all the variations.
I cant get into streamelements can anyone help please as im logged in but it keeps throwing me into the home screen when i try and go to the dashboard
hey does anyone know how to make !join command to have viewers enter a queue for when its time for them to join the game
Hi, Im a Moderator at a twitch channel and setgame command not working we have tried to part the bot but its still not working. The channel name is Suri.
Is there anyway to fix it?
We are getting this message
How can i connect g2apay with streamelements?
@rustic pumice will have to remake the alerts once more
@strong raptor Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
you can't
because G2A doesn't comply with new EU regulations with creditcards so it's no longer an option

@rain lodge if this is the first time having the bot switch a game title the streamer has to make the bot an editor on twitch
Going to suggest logging out and logging back in
yea we tried to repart it,unmod it , logging out and logging back
Our issue is the same
@rain lodge Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
:/ yea did that
yup getting that looked at now was just kind of waiting for a magical staff member to appear
@rain lodge i was able to trigger the command without any issue
hmm i dont know
we are getting it to the category change
so does it wwork or what
because we are getting the error message
prob something wrong with the response on twitch API but then the bot reply "... changed the game to.." that means everything is working correctly
if you see the category correctly, during the livestream but the wrong one on the VOD, that's on twitch
oh okay
I gave my bot a nickname in streamelements and it shows in obs live. But the nickname does not reflect in the actual twitch chat. Is there a way to resolve this?
How do I set up stream elements
Go to their site and login with the platforms you want to stream on

I just need to get my night bot in and stream labs but I’m doing it on phone so I’m confused what I need to do
There telling my to sync something for the nightbot but how tho
Hi!
The company I work for is doing a charity stream. And we're using streamelements to redeem tickets to a lottery. There has been a huge amount of redemptions and I would love to get some support further as the page is kinda not working.
How do I sync to get my night bot
hey how come the leaderboards in my panels says no data
does anyone know where i put my triggerfyre code with new widget editor?
do you guys even support anyone on here?
man streamelements must suck
my comman !watchtime is buggy what can i do ?
@frosty crest 10 minutes of watch time is given to those in chat when the loyalty points are handed out (every 10 minutes). Therefore, loyalty must be enabled to watch time to work properly.
There is no direct link between watch time and all-time points.
It can’t be calculated from the number of all-time points a user has because subs may earn points at a faster rate and !bonus all command increases all-time points for users in the chat at that time.
Giving points to a single user do not affect all-time, only when giving to all in chat.
it dosent work for example when I type !watchtime nothing happen
maybe because the bot is not in your channel? 😛
and the music is not DMCA safe (just an observation)
what do u mean not in the channel ?
does anyone know how toset up the triggerfyre code to alert box on new streamelements editor?
wizebot and streamlabs, not StreamElements in your channel
- did you try in the Triggerfyre discord?
- do not post your overlay URL's here for safety reasons (that is why I removed the screenshot)
do you mean that I should deactivate wize bot and streamlabs?
( im sorry im not the best in this subject)
Is there a way that I can customize the CSS for the chat widget?
It's not really needed to have multiple bots in your channel @frosty crest , but you don't have the StreamElements bot in your channel at all
so you would need to let it join first 😛
k ty im gonna try it 😄
So my alerts don't come through on OBS. Which is very odd.
Because I have a static image that is part of my alert overlay and it shows perfectly fine.
When I test my alert in streamelements it works but it does not show in obs. Any reason for this?
@unkempt agate OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)

Hey guys what is a good capture card to get for my Xbox for my twitch streams?
Okay, now audio wont come through in my alerts when on OBS. Images work fine.
TTS plays through my desktop audio when I have the audio on it's own track. Is there a way I could put tts on it's own audio track in obs?
Greetings! I'm a brand new StreamElements user on twitch... so here comes the dumb question...
I've created an overlay and I believe I've loaded it into my Xplit scene correctly. How can I test it?
@robust delta You can test alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard > My Overlays > pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the Preview LIVE on stream option is on to see the alert in OBS/XSplit** https://streamable.com/vtulg9
Yes... I used that to configure my overlay. But now that I've loaded it into XSplit, I need to make sure I lined everything up correctly in the overlay with my actual camera.
I've done all of the above, created the overlay on a chromebook, and I'm running XSplit on a PC Laptop.
As long as you added the overlay at 1920x1080 it will be fine
@dry hare - yes it is! Thanks for your help - I can see it now!
Hello. I keep having the same problem. My chat commands do not work. I tried logging out of SteamElements in OBS and then logging back in and it started to work, but an hour later, it's happening again.

Yes, I am sure
Hello, I have the following problem. When connecting the streamelements with the bot name as the streamelements , the message timers work normally. However, when I change the name of the bot to keep the same name of the channel, the timer does not work. What do I do?
When I followed the directions, I was able to see the Connect Custom Bot account button and signed in using the bot's id and password and authorized connection
have you check if that account isn't banned on your chat?
@lofty timber StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
I am sure. You and I got it working a few hours ago, but it stopped working again. It is not banned
Change it to the default (StreamElements)
that worked
Heloo i emailed you and you said i needed a account id what account is it for twitch or streamelements

TTS plays through my desktop audio when I have the audio on it's own track. Is there a way I could put tts on it's own audio track in obs?
@viscid pebble
just the TTS on its own track? if you are talking about the TTS on the alerts those are handle on the same audio that the browser source of the overlay
Hello. I use a notebook with a dedicated video card to play and stream. However, OBS after a few minutes stops capturing the game window and goes black, or with the image frozen, even changing the system settings to make both OBS and the game run on the dedicated board. I believe that the notebook, automatically, ends up switching between a dedicated graphics card to the integrated one to save energy, and in this change OBS stops capturing. I've done several tutorials, but none of them helped. Has anyone had this problem with notebook and knew how to solve?

Hey
@abstract hemlock When i put the brower source to have its own audio track in obs the ding noise would go off in the browser source audio but the tts voice was still playing on the desktop audio. Ill will try again though!
why are my viewers getting a payment refused

How do I setup an overlay windows in streamlabs?
I'm struggling getting sound from my capture card it's playing onto my TV but nothing in obs
In my streamelements obs the game I'm streaming shows up but it doesnt show up on stream
@worn prairie Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@ionic kelp yeap, its work now. Anyway, thanks ❤️
How come my sound alerts work whenever they feel like? I usually have to create a new overlay to get them working again, then after time they stop working again, getting frustrating, been having this issue off and on for 2 years
Hi all, is there a way to make a custom command that uses the $(redeem) variable, and also types something in the chat?
Basically I want to play a sound effect, and have the bot provide the source of that sound effect in chat
or, is there a way to have a store redemption say something in chat when it's redeemed?
hello! ❤️
i was wondering if you could help me with something!
i am trying to set my overlay, but it doesn't entirely fit con my computer. it looks real zoomed out and i don't know what to do to correct that!
@cinder token 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
lemme know if that was it
i'm using Streamlabs OBS, would be the same?
guess there was no easy answer to my question 
mmmm
sorry just came on
for items you create in your store you have the option to set an alert and\or notification
the option to enable says something like 'notify in chat when item is redeemed' or something
I don't believe you can customize that alert
but you can also use the chat alert module of the bot
under the redemption tab
i just use nightbot to follow up with a msg after a certain alert, as I don't want the bot to announce the redemption, but just post something
so the command is the same on our bot and on nightbot, only on se it will redeem, and for nightbot it will post a msg
Hi
it looks like it's been cut
Does anybody know how to stream through phone
the chat module looks like it would only work for a single message
and, if i try to fit it to the screen, it doesn't appear complete
I was wondering for the tipping section of StreamElements is there any way to link a bank account rather than Paypal
i have multiple sound effects, each with its own source i would to credit
text size, bounding box, etc @cinder token
@frigid jacinth SE.PAY is available for streamers who are at least 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries and have at least 101 follower (Twitch) / 101 subscribers (YouTube):
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland , Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.
If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.
For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees
what does that mean @uneven olive ?
thanks
thanks!
for example, let's say i have a custom command called !mario that uses the redeem variable to play a sound effect and says something in the chat, like "it's a me, mario!"
right now i can get the sound effect to play with the custom command and the redeem variable, no problem
but i can't get the command to also say the text in chat
so yeah, either use another bot, same command, only text output [that's what I do with nightbot]
actually I guess that would be the best suggestion
because we have no way to have it do both upon the redemption
and the item notification doesn't allow customization
and the chat alerts module is not item specific
well, please consider that as a suggestion for a future feature, because i just looked through this discord for the better part of an hour and a ton of people asked this exact question with no good answer
but i will go the route of using a different bot, so thanks for the idea
I mean :D
i love me some streamelements, so the more i can do just within this ecosystem, the better
I’m currently streaming for the first time with stream elements and notice the game gets real choppy at times I didn’t have this problem with streamlabs can someone help me out. !helpdesk
i managed to solve the problem, thank you very much!
Damn lmao it deleted my comment?
@shy axle Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.
Oh got it ! My bad
Didn’t mean to send that twice my bad

Is there a widget that shows a list of top donors/sub gifters/cheers/etc with their amounts? (Tag me)

is there a way to get the different lists to rotate thru? like show the list of top donors, then rotate to the list of top gifters? the asset rotator only works for imported pictures/videos
@placid raptor
hi all
Okay, I'm wondering something here. I want to stream to Twitch, but for some reason my OBS Live defaults to YouTube. How can I change this?
@cedar shell Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
and make sure you OBS > Settings > Stream is set for your Twitch account \ stream key
It was set to my Twitch account, but it kept defaulting to YT anyways, which was a little bit of a head-scratcher
not sure what you mean 'kept defaulting to YT'.
your SE YT account was the one logged in?
even after a logout and log back in to twitch?
@cedar shell StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Oh lovely. It's asking for a code. I don't have my phone. And I've tried installing the Authy desktop app, and it wants my phone. I won't be able to get it back for a few more days till my better half gets it from the lost and found at the doctor's office. >_<
There has got to be another way to get the authentication code
welp. Guess I can submit a ticket and see if they can help.
Unfortunately you'd probably get the phone before you can get a workaround.
Yeah... sadly. This is a little annoying, I was really looking forward to streaming.
I mean, it's good they have the 2FA, but annoying when things like this happen
So I got access to the custom bot name in ground control now, but every time i try to use it the bot messages are appearing as my username in chat, not the bot name i chose
any thoughts on this?
also now if i turn off "custom bot name" the bot just doesnt work in my channel at all
no 2 ways about it - security comes first
are you using OBS.Live too @topaz jolt ?

what account did you connect GC to?
thevillagersvoice
you need to use a separate twitch account
ah
if you logged in with your own, the bot will be your account
Okay, I found a workaround. If I actually click on "continue without logging in", it then picks up on my Twitch stream settings and will work. At least that will get me through till my phone can be recovered.
nice gj @cedar shell
that's what I like to see 
people trying solutions out!
or workarounds rather P:
Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I noticed after updating OBS Live this morning that the badge to text size proportion is off. The badges are a couple sizes bigger now looking pixilated and the text size is smaller. I've tried adjusting the chat appearance, text size but nothing seems to work. This is viewing via the chat panel in OBS Live. Could this be a sync issue with OBS Live and Twitch? Is it an OBS Live issue?
our chat dock is 1:1 twitch chat
hi all, is there a way to have a widget as an “overlay container”?
if yes, how?
I use a few twitch extension which are basically act like a widget but they only provide an overlay-html format and I would like to add them to my streamelements overlays
not a functionality we have
can it be requested to have it as a feature in the future?
!remote
@lament blade maybe in the distant future
we have many things on our timeline, more than you can imagine
I can suggest this though -
@lament blade Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
and when resources are made available we will be sure to review the most requested features and work toward them
how to add streamelements to my discord server
what does that mean?
@stray creek Not possible.
ow, ok, thanks
Why can't I have my SE.Pay paid out to my PayPal account, but has it been credited to my bank account?
Because that's how it pays out.
Because SEpay only works with bank accounts
SEpay was made to not have to pay all the paypal fees and provide other payment options for viewers with chargeback protection for the streamer.
And why do I have to enter my PayPal?
So if I understand you correctly, is a withdrawal ONLY via the bank account?
Hi, I changed my name a few times on twitch and Im wondering how I can get all my chat stats to merge for all the channels i watch
ok so every stream now the custom bot name si breaking and the bot isnt responding
i had to revert back to streamelements yesterday as when i removed the custom bot and added it back and authorised it etc to get it fixed it didnt work
@astral blaze If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:
- Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again by connecting with Twitch.
- On the right side of the dashboard page that opens, select Join under bot settings. If it says Part select that and then select Join to send the bot to the chat. Don't forget to mod the bot by typing /mod streamelements in your channel if you have not already.
- Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
hello.
i just tried to stream, said it couldn't authenticate twitch, needed a stream key, i got no idea what to do and having really bad anxiety doesn't help the equation.
i keep having to change to stream elements, part then join then set back to custom
its frustrating doing it every stream
@viscid pebble would you like me to tell you my usernames?
have you entered a streamkey in the settings of your obs, its easier if you go on settings > stream > then login to twitch
you dont need to do streamkey then it will just login as your twitch and work
Hi! Can someone help me? I'm using OBS.Live and i'm trying to capture Rimworld, but it just gives me a black screen on game capture. The game is windowed, Medal is off, and OBS has been run in administrator mode.
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
do all the streamers that you watch use stream elementS? as usually when you change usernames on twitch your channel points earend in streams go away
@wary depot not channel points that are integrated with twitch, but as for other exterior channel points, yes
yeh that is what im referring to so bot points
that is what you was talking about right?
yea
your chat stats, so hours viewers on each streamer etc
you lose that when you change names
it all resets
i jneed to get a staff member to integrate my different names
that would only work for streams using stream elements
i was using obs stream elements and obs studio.
i got no idea what to do.
already updated
idk, its not showing in the streamelemnts stats page of a streamer im watching. If I have an old username on the leaderboard, its supposed to integrate that with my new one, right?
type !rename youroldname in their chat
piikaJ
what was the username before that?
p1kaJ and pLkaJ
latest one
pLkaJ
not a list
so do !rename pLkaJ
in the streamer's chat
as for chatstats - it's already updated
now, what else is needed?
Some love?
ahh i think i know the reason

i changed my username twice and its only updating with the recent one
what are you referring to by 'it'?
chatstats
@wary depot If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- In the Custom bot name field select Set custom bot name, not your already existing username (with capital letters). Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
chatstats was updated as per your request
it doesn't gather stats from in between your name changes
it moves what exists to be under the new name
so currently your old existing stats were moved to your recent nickname

there's really not much to explain
https://stats.streamelements.com/c/Dimeax this is the streamer i am currently watching where I am seeing if my chatstats are updated. Before I came here, the messages for the 16th place on the top chatters leaderboards was at 3113. I did the command and its still 3113
your chatstats are updated to your current username
ive been refreshing to see if it changes
16th place
this is getting more confusing by the second
Why is in The Dashboard No SE.Pay???
to merge all my usernames chat stats
what did the person you mod for ask you to do?
@wind hedge SE.PAY is available for streamers who are at least 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries and have at least 101 follower (Twitch) / 101 subscribers (YouTube):
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland , Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.
If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.
For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees
to see my total number of messages typed
are you sitting in their chat sending messages and then refreshing chatstats?
no, i refreshed when the person said that they were all merged
this is what i was establishing he wants his stats for other peoples streams to be updated
alright
next time you ask for assistance @astral blaze
you have to be clear about what you need
I updated your own channel's chatstats
sorry for the confusion
ok sure
but when ppl ask for chatstats update it's usually their own channels
thats fair
so that what was updated for you and now your name should be properly updated in anyone's chatstat
no, what you send from now on will be properly updated with your recent name
this change didn't add up all your past stats to the new name
no worries
don't hesitate to ask man
there was just a misunderstanding
all chill
Hey, im having an issue getting the streamelements overlay to show on obs. sound is there from browser source, but no visuals
@subtle zealot 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
@subtle zealot OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)

cool, thanks @viscid pebble
Hello, i have a question about the custom bot name, i set it up and had in enabled, and everything was fine, but i used my bots account to run a test stream and now its disconnected and wont reconnect to the main channel. is this fixable or do i need to make a new bot account now ?
@turbid onyx If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- In the Custom bot name field select Set custom bot name, not your already existing username (with capital letters). Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
The bot account that was linked does not show up, and although i tried re-authorizing it twice it will not show up. the send test message button remains unclickable
Not in the 3rd option?
@turbid onyx "1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404 (don't forget to add a space before the current path)
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties."
Thank you! 2nd solution worked ❤️

Hello,
Why is the host not shown in the stream?
@thorn pagoda "Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:
- All hosts coming from an online channel with at least 1+ viewer
- Auto host events with at least 1 viewer - only from a channel that just went offline
Note: If you see X channel has hosted you with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these."
Inglisch bitte.
however, no host is shown in the activity feed
That is why. If it doesn't meet that requirement then it won't show.
I have a few sound emote commands. For example !hype. I tried to add a new sound, but it doesn't play. Is it an issue with the mp3? Could it be due to having too many sound commands? All the settings for the new sound are the same as the others. Every other sound command works fine. Any ideas how to fix?
I don't know of any limitation for amount of items in the stream store
if everything is setup the same maybe try recreating the item? need to understand what's the difference
what's being done differently than before if this is unexpected behavior and the existing items [sound effects] are redeemed properly
I have tried that as well. I even tried getting different mp3s to see if that was the issue. I'll try again 🙂
check the commands aspect of things as well
i was wondering how can i make a command mod only through the chatbot,
what do you mean @sudden arch ?
make a command mod? only through chatbot?
what does that mean?
through the twitch chat
does anybody knows how do i import own3d overlays? i need help 🙂
hey i would like to ask how can i add countdown timer from stream elements?>
we have countdown timers here #widget-share 🙂
the packages you download should contain instructions @jovial turret
@sudden arch sorry mate I need a more elaborate description of the issue
I don't understand it
i think he means he wants to create a mod only cmd?
yes, but through twitch chat, and not the dashboard
Can anyone tell me why i cant get past this page https://i.imgur.com/mJWfoU7.jpg please its now bee 2 days ive not been able to access my dashboard
custom is made via dashboard
@strong raptor Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).

@placid raptor ahh.. it only did for streamlabs obs 😦
how to change bot name in streamelements
Thank you
ask them then for instructions. basically it's very easy, create an overlay and create widgets and upload the provided own3d assets to those widgets @jovial turret
@sudden arch i have a somewhat feeling youre a mod for a chanel and wat to create that right?
create what? making someone a mod via SE?
make cmd mod only
yes
only mods can use it by creating via chat
well you can choose user level for any custom command
just make sure the user level is set to mod 
do i then do like -level [role]?
@sudden arch You can add, remove and make changes to custom commands in chat with !commands/!cmds flags:
!commands add (commandname) (commandresponse) - allows you **to add **a new custom command
!commands remove (commandname) - allows you to delete a custom command
!commands edit (commandname) (commandresponse) - allows you to edit an existing custom command
!commands show (commandname) - allows you to see the raw response of a command before variables are used
!commands options (commandname) -(flag) - allows you to change settings for an existing custom command
Valid flags for !cmds options include: -enable -disable -cd (number in seconds) -usercd (number in seconds) -cost (number) -level (number) -type (say, whisper or reply) -count (number)
Syntax example: !cmds options twitter -usercd 60 -type reply -level 250
ok thanks
mod is level 500
ok thanks for the help
no worries
is the bot offline?

Hi, my chat commands are not working. I tried to part the bot and then let the bot join my channel again, but it's still not working. What else can I do?
Do you use OBS.Live? Is the bot only not working when you have launched OBS.Live?
I'm using OBS.Live indeed, but also in the 'normal' viewer chat I can't use the commands
Is it working when OBS.Live is closed?
If I had .6 upload would I be able to stream on pc
And if so can I have some help setting the setting up for that I looked every where for setting for this bad upload speed lol

what is this
Hello, is it possible to export redemptions to a CSV file?
I am having trouble with streamelements overlays. Can someone spend some time with me.
im having trouble with streamelements just showing 0 points on everyone and the watchtime says the same 0 sec
@burnt anchor 10 minutes of watch time is given to those in chat when the loyalty points are handed out (every 10 minutes). Therefore, loyalty must be enabled to watch time to work properly.
There is no direct link between watch time and all-time points.
It can’t be calculated from the number of all-time points a user has because subs may earn points at a faster rate and !bonus all command increases all-time points for users in the chat at that time.
Giving points to a single user do not affect all-time, only when giving to all in chat.
i khnow that but those two isnt working
it has worked before but now it isnt working my twitch name is fassan_
I'll try use custom bot name
but don't work

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if cheers/bits register as tips in dollar amounts? Basically I have my tip goal on my overlay but the last time I streamed someone cheered me but it didn't change in my tip goal. Is the only way to do it withh SE pay?
Tip goals will only get triggered by PayPal/SE.pay
Because of twitch ToS that is not allowed for cheers.
What is the most reliable way to stream VR wirelessly (with audio) over streamlabs obs?
You'd have to ask streamlabs.
Wtf why am i in a stream elements discord LUL

It seems that people can't send me bits, still. Did something change for the bits portion? My mod was telling me this that it has been messed up!
My alert sounds are working in the editor, but im suddenly not hearing them in OBS. Anything I can do to debug the issue? All other audio seems to be coming in fine
I currently have my youtube linked through my Twitch login, I'd like to separate them. Can any Staff help me with this?
@sacred yacht There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
okay thanks

Hey there, my StreamElements Leaderboard Twitch extension doesn't seem to be updating my sub information. I've got a few viewers who renewed for a second month but it's showing everyone on the list at 1 month. I've never changed or updated my username since I created my Twitch account, and have tried logging in and out several times with no success. Any idea how to get it to update?
Separately, but possibly related, my chat alert module isn't activating when users re-subscribe. What are the correct settings to make sure this happens? I've got one message for 1 month subs and another message set for 2+ (but it's never activated)
Custom widgets are discussed in #dev-chat

Hello, can i ask how i can add overlay to obs from site?
@lament blade 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@viscid pebble I don't see where it say join under bot settings
@floral gate Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
when i have bigger resolution of monitor have i set it on it? or just 1920x1080?
I changed my channel name and I can't use the streamelemn as a mod .. what should I do?
@lament blade 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

trying to use keywords in the bot to only have the command run if the keyword is the first word in a message. tried some stuff with regex but it doesn't seem to be working. can anyone offer any help?
I think I see what you're doing. Try just ^doo in your RegEx.
Hey my bot timers aren’t working any solutions
My leaderboard extension isn't updating for re-subs (just shows everybody at 1). I've never changed my username and logging out then back in doesn't seem to update it
Looks fine to me.
^ specifies that the word must be the first in the message.
If it's not, then it won't go.
could've sworn I tried that already
thanks
that's totally fine. just testing for a friend who wants the keyword to be an emote

Anyone able to help me out with OBS stream settings?
@keen bloom There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterward, but not a list of settings.
Thank you
Is it me or does scrolling text get "stuck" if you edit the overlay and save while it is on-stream?
Yeah, so that auto config did nothing different
Can someone help me with making my stream less choppy?
No matter what I've done, it still sucks. My upload is over 50 and I have a 3080 so idk what the problem could be
pls help im trying to get a display output but since im on a laptop it didnt work, but not even with multiple solutions it didnt work pls help i would greatly appreciate that
ping me if u got answer
@lament blade Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
Click here for instructions on how to configure your system:

Probably your encoder settings. Having the best PC and best internet won’t fix encoder settings being wrong

@restive copper https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings
@dry hare
hey so i added media share for both donos and free how does chat request for media to be played if i dont have the currency thingie, im not sure i i have the currency in my stream or not. I dont have affiliate btw
Disable psycho visual tuning, change bitrate to VBR 4500, see how it does. If it still stutters you’ll need to tweak from there.
Media share needs to be enabled and as long as you have the media request widget on your overlay they can use !songrequest in your channel to play music via YouTube
okie ty
did it no need for help anymore
will it work even if im not streaming?
Media request? Not really as it’s designed to play while you’re live. I believe you can play music while offline, but you’ll be the only one to hear it
yeah i got video output only from power saving gpu tho :/
If you tried everything in this guide and are still having issues, please make a post on the forums or stop by the OBS Discord server. Windows 10: latest Windows 10 builds…
Best I can offer
i will read this thanks
WHY ARE MY viewers payments being refused ?

I'm having it too.
and my bots is not working
My bot and commands works i hope its twitch/streamelements problem
We're moving to a new webhook system that we're still working out the kinks for. Apologies for the growing pains, and we appreciate your patience.
Oh I see. Thanks for answering
I have issue where the activity feed on OBS didn't update on the two recent followers I got and i got no notification that they followed and i tried refreshing the activity feed but it wont show there names that they followed
this is the first time i only know the followed by the stream manager on twitch but not on obs activity feed and i don't know why it did that
yea i got like four followers and none of them showed up
i also got a tip but that showed up
@regal jasper @regal jasper @still stratus @hasty pasture We were attempting to implement a new system that didn't work quite as well as we hoped. We've now rolled it back, and you should continue to receive follower events moving forward.
ok thank you
Okay thank you
i just checked back and reloaded but nothing changed on my activity feed
Nothing will change.
Histories are not retrieved.
Only live events.
So events moving forward will be seen.
so how do i update my followers because its wrong
Ones missed while we were rolling back will not appear.
so the next time i go live it will be fine?
That cannot be changed. Your totals will be accurate. If you absolutely want to, people who followed during that time can unfollow and refollow and should be counted.
@strong kernel What about my commands that don't work? help me
Turn off follower only mode.
It came to nothing
Commands must be enabled to be used.
@hasty pasture If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- In the Custom bot name field select Set custom bot name, not your already existing username (with capital letters). Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
Was solved! Thanks
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix a problem I have with the activity feed via obs live? I was streaming today, and whenever I had a follower, it wouldn’t update on the feed, nor would I be alerted...
It’s also not shown on the stream elements browser

Hey guys, I'm a bit new to this and was looking for some help. When I go through OBS and start my stream, then go to my stream manager on Twitch everything looks fine... but if I go to my actual twitch profile (on my computer and my phone) it says that I'm offline. Any ideas? I've not had any issues like this before until I downloaded the most recent update today.
I'm new to Streamelements. For the moment I simply want to set up follower and raid alerts. I am not keen on the default video/animations however. How do I simply run text alerts without animations?
I thought it would be as simple as deleting the video from the alerts, but this produces an alert with no text as well.
Hello, I recently noticed that people that cheered bits did not have any TTS sound at all, I have it on and have the set number for it to work which is 100. It works fine with real currency just not the twitch bits/cheers.
@idle jay Text not showing up over your alerts? Go to the Advanced Text Settings and set the top margin to 50, you can work your way to the right position from there.
@honest geode Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page
After doing that and then testing it using the emulator, the cheer tts still will not work
I do have it on, and that is what is in the cheer section for the alerts
it also does not work for subs
alerts seem to be spotty lately again, any known issues?
Ok I understand the margin thing now. Just for my two cents, I hate the editor. It is a bit too much like canvas/artwork and not enough to the point.
@merry tulip what do you mean by 'spotty'?
@idle jay many would disagree and say our Editor is exactly to the point
it's a matter of practice
How do I put my overlay onto my stream?
@versed raft 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I can’t fondsbeheerder answer: can I use features of StreamElements with Streamlabs (that’s where I stream from) or Southey not work together at all?
@arctic basalt We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.
Sorry my settings were on Dutch 🤣🤣
@arctic basalt somethings might work and some don't, we normally tell users to test if their issue happens on OBS Studio, not SLOBS
you can still ask any question you want
Gotcha @placid raptor thanks for that!
@placid raptor they only show sometimes, sometimes only sound and sometimes only the TTS
that's very general and sounds like issue is rooted with settings
@merry tulip
seeing as that I can't really go over your account (in terms of time) you'd have to be specific with your examples of the issue please
What is 'sometimes'?
i will switch back to SL as I never had this issue there and see if it still persists if yes we know the culprit
and relax please
you can switch, I'm not here to keep you using SE
If you need help I'm also here
but either we communicate or we don't
up to you, I will still ask what I need to know
aight?
good :D
sometimes means exactly what it means
ok bro.
it's completely random
super weird
had this some weeks ago then it was fine then it came back, asking around many people have this exact issue, this discord is full of people with the exact same issue
but I never found out what is causing it
I asked nerdordie and asked them to test their code if there are issues but all was fine but couldn't fully condfirm if it's SE fault, some dev(?) chimed in and that was the last I heard of it
would need to test with a complete default set of alerts to be sure but never did that
too long ago to remember they just acknowleged it i think
not all
only subs I think for re subs etc
do you have a way to test [replicate] it or is it only when live and real events come in?
if you test an alert via the website it always comes up, only real events have this issue
and it effects all of them
and to confirm the setting aspect, did this issue start recently? and alerts were working as expected before?
I have this since swapping to SE couple months back I think, then suddenly it was fine now bad again
like literally the first day confused why I head my alert but it did not show up
I tried doing what the bot told me about refreshing the browser source in obs, yet the cheer and sub tts when emulated does not work, only the donations work with TTS
they will work the preview is just broken i think
I had a cheer/bits come in but it didnt work
I have TTS setup for my subs and they work even when the test ones dont
limit 1 for cheers is 1
or not?
thats how I always thought it was, have to set it to 100
Hello, I have a question about the !givepoints command
got that fixed its now at 100, but even when it was at 1 the TTS still didnt work
@honest geode @merry tulip if you guys are helping each other out at the same time while we're talking, add tags so I know who everyone is talking to
I have mine set to 1 and I never saw issues with any of my alerts
can you two try this please -
OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
@upbeat steppe ask away 
if I try to replay the cheer/bits in SEobs it still doesnt say it but when I do money one it doesnt work, @placid raptor
I turned hardware acceleration off from on
aswell
So I got it all setup in my chat and everything but whenever people do !points and !givepoints it says they have 0 points
hwacc is already off for me and I have this issue with it on too
what is the goal @upbeat steppe ?
are you interested to allow people to give points?
you think they're not receiving points?
users should be logged in to their SE accounts and be active in chat
and depending on what you want to do or what the issue is I can advise on how to proceed
Hello can anyone help me? I want to remove stream elements from my twitch, in other words unlink my account to stream elements, how can I do that?
what if it's chromium in obs causing this? the way that alerts are send to the browser source via SE triggers something in it, I really don't think it's a high chance this is it but who knows
@dry pilot There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
@placid raptor Do the chatters that are trying to send points to other viewers have to have stream elements?
@upbeat steppe !givepoints is to transfer username points to another user
you need to do !addpoints all or !addpoints username amount
@merry tulip @honest geode still not ruling out configuration. I'll take a look at your accounts soon
I'll tag you in a bit
if I didn't reach out in 1 hour tag me, is that ok with you?
i'll go 1 by 1 though
@little oak yeah I know that but when people are trying to send points to each other it says they have 0 points even though they have more
wait so if i unlink my account, do i lose any subs or bits i have gotten during the time using stream elements? To my knowledge i thought that stuff goes directly with Twitch
k
do you have loyalty points on?
appreciate it @placid raptor
@upbeat steppe
yeah @little oak
check user level settings for the command @upbeat steppe
just about to ask that as well so what groove said?
I think mine was set to super mod before I changed it
its set to everyone
have you streamed since setting all these settings for them to earn?
yeah
please give me your channel name only to twitch?
@upbeat steppe did you also email us?
yeah @zenith widget
Check your email, as I did answer you probably 10 or 15 minutes ago

Ok so I have made it so streamelements responds to commands and it still says I have 0 points

besides that i can't give our own bot points with the give points command
all seems to be working just fine
as long as I have points
to give away
so people have to basically add their points to what we can call "a bank" so they can give them away?
well the addpoints command is moderation and above only command
but yes, as explained over the email i sent you, in order for the "!givepoints" command to work, people need to have points in order to give away

Is there any way to expand the "!top online|offline|alltime" command to show the top 10 or even top 20? Maybe with help of API?
The default command? no
Via variable? no
Via API? Maybe -> https://docs.streamelements.com/v2.0/reference -> #dev-chat
i'm checking @honest geode
Ok thanks!
thx KeiZar
Hi I'm trying to write a command where the response @name at the viewer. How do I get it to address the viewer who called the command?
Is the user the same as the person running said command or a target?
yes
This is what I wrote maybe you could correct it please?
${random.pick 'Hi @user how are you doing?' 'What's up dude?' 'Welcome, take a seat and grab some popcorn' 'Hello'}
@${user}
oh I got
Parsing error at position 116: Mismatched quotation mark
${random.pick 'Hi @${user} how are you doing?' 'What's up dude?' 'Welcome, take a seat and grab some popcorn' 'Hello'}
I found the error, it was the ' in the middle of the 'what's up dude?'
Thank you for the user reference help Sudo you the best!
Hello! tried following a video on how to change the chatbox name
Still not showing in ground control, any tips or tricks?
custom bot name can be done via OBS.LIVE 🙂
Where could I find the setting?
is there anyway to emulate alerts to trigger "Top of the Session" labels?
what do you mean specifically? the username displayed?
Hello, i have an issue with an Widget Animation. In the streamelements browser its everything fine. It is a Event Rotation with a fade in, and fade Out Animation. But in OBS its going through the events with a hard cut. No fade animation.
-Newest OBS Version
-refreshed Cookies and cashe from the site
:FeelsBadMan:
So when you have a label that is based on (for example) Top Donator of the Session, the labels do not update for emulated alerts
@winter pollen OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
you mean the random names that are generated for emulations?
how do you emulate someone becoming top donator of the seesion
?
emulation won't populate the session data
this label updates during the session based on the ingested tipping events
thank u 
yes, I ask this because I'm building out a widget that animates between top donation and top bit donation (depending which is higher), but cant test it because it wont populate the data
Hey, need a little help.
it seems that my twitch account and streamelements have became unsynced. I gained 5 additional followers yesterday and it didn't change my overlay or give me a notification about my new followers?

Why are you guys ignoring my question? Can you please enable Ground Control custom bot name feature on my account?
My username is Xanieth
Thank you
What are you talking about?
As for your issue, i don't understand what you are describing
you got a tip and its in your paypal. So whats the issue exactly?
Ok, so the short answer here is - we can't help you
longer answer:
Is there a way to important the new followers over from twitch to streamelements?
We can't help you on an issue not related to our tools and features. This is your own personal issue on how to retrieve the tips from PayPal
@bitter shale anything missed is not going to retroactively show up again unfortunately.
ok ty
I enabled the custom chatbot name in Ground Control and it responds to commands 6 times. Username is Xanieth.
restart GC
or rather turn it off
open task amanger
find bot.exe
kill that
start GC
perfect. Thanks so much. Easy fix. I should have tried that first before asking. Much appreciated.
It is disabled at the moment. I try to enable it later.
Thank You for your answer
