@tropic flicker Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
They need to do that.
@placid raptor Thank you!
i am a mod in someones chat that this is happening on. i will get them to log out and log back in
this one @lament blade ?
yes but the thing is that for already made overlays it size automatically
but if a made mine no
and i find that a bit annoying
logout did not work either. oh well. thanks for trying yall
how do you mean size auto @lament blade ? the text height/width? can you post screen shot? .... also might be worth a shot looking in #widget-share for something. Most of them have options so you can just show Follower
no no
i dont speak so good english but i will try my best
Well again
The issue here is that i want to make a label for one image I created but in a free overlay that gives you streamelements i see that when a follower event happens the label automatically it makes larger or smaller depending of the name
@dusky rain Do you have a streamelements option in you obs menu?
but the thing is that i need a especific size for the label but with out cutting the name
Hi, when is OBS Live coming for mac users?
@ionic kelp yes
@ocean path No ETA. It is in closed beta atm.
try this one @lament blade #widget-share message
Fak
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
Do that but choose streamelements.
you want to set {follower-latest.name} in the text. and "Font-size" to "dynamic" @lament blade
Is there also not a chatbot for mac users?
for custom bot name?
The alerts are from the overlay editor
Sorry my English is a little rough
No you can make commands to add sounds to your stream
what link are you trying to download from?
@prisma relic one thing how can I see the menu like you?
is "StreamElements" in your Twitch chat?
....
Hi, if someone can help me with my problem it would be great. My alertbox stopped working, I already have a few days without my alertbox getting alerts and in the tests it works but when someone follows me it does not work
and the activity also stopped registering, which I think must be the problem
sorry if my english is not good
@lament blade
@glad snow there might be an issue on that affects some event ingestion
i see it for follower events mostly
we have dev aware of that and hopefully it'll be fixed promptly
no worries
I did change my name
what is your old and new names?
my older one was killerextwitch and my new one is killerexlive
but is there a way
that i can cut a little bit of the weidgt of the label but it dosnt cut when the name is long?
hi! happy new year, is there a way to get back the stock bits alerts (with the real icons, not the "crackling tokens" that now appear as default? Thannks !
here is a pack of the default ones; #helpdesk-twitch message
awesome! thank you
Seeing how there is no specific channel for helpdesk of general stream elements, i'm trying to figure out how to either merge 2 accounts (youtube and twitch) or unlink one and claim it on the other account. When i try to delete my stream elements account, it says invalid username.
Oh I had to do that, you have to DM the staff, they'll merge it when they can
@spice grail 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
^^ yup. if you get your tokens and want to merge the accounts i can check if anyone is around to merge them for you
I have my tokens
send them to @placid raptor @spice grail
someone help me with my problem ??no chat stats...why ?? my id is 5dd02b9cbe282028fe640ebb
So it’s still not changing the bot name, it’s still appearing as Streamelements no matter what I do in GC or OBS
Quiero roles
!rank
Do I need to take Streamelements off as a mod?
Like in GC it shows the name I put in for custom but after saving and doing tests anytime I get a notification it’s still appearing as SE
@lament blade mp4 files should be OK until they are below 30MB. You can also convert them to webm using convertio or ffmpeg
@jade arch StreamElements should remain a mod as it takes care of all your commands when GC/OBS.Live is switched off
@solar oak Can you ask your question, so somebody can help you?
@lament blade First moments with everything that's new is hard. Been there too 😉
Nvm I think I figured it out, so even while I’m streaming on console I’ll have to have OBS running on my laptop for the bot name to appear to what I changed it to?
Yes. Also - if you are streaming from console, you may want to use remote play to have your overlays
I’ve been using Lightstream to be able to integrate everything from SE over
My question is when i added the Hud by coocla
Oh. That works too for sure
and i dont add any name in middle
those lines
move
and i cant add my own design name there
if u dont get me
try it urself
click link
open it and wait till those lines move
from right and left to the middle
Hello I want to include the replay widget to my obs
I have already follow all the instructions but I cant make it work!
and add it
@solar oak is it "Advanced information bar"?
I have already add it and I have already put the key but when i go with the !replay command, nothing happens
@icy moth I think that @wanton mango would be the best person to approach. I am sure that he will know a solution.
@solar oak Checking
aight
man i wanna use my own rotating widget
but those lines move
so it makes me unable
i duplicate my overlay and add it in this
u know what i mean
I thought it doesn't display names there
Oh. So that on loading they are on sides, then they move to center?
Hmmm. I think they should remain on sides. In my example they moved because I have no latest events in my account. Checking on another one
Almost 😉
You can add that to CSS:
.stats-container{
min-width:100px;
}
.train-container{
min-width:100px;
}
This will enforce sides of widget to be at least 100px
Default they are dynamic length, based on your stats/train
It doesn't matter
and i wanna remove the number in left to add my logo
they do still move
sadly
@untold crest join a sound channel?
I cannot.
aghhh
I think that in that case the best way would be to reach @uncut vigil directly. This is the author of this widget.
hola
i did
he responded
and then he didnt respond later on i think he didnt find a solution
It may be a bigger widget rewrite, to achieve what you want.
How do I aimbot
aimbot?
Anyone know how to fix my !watchtime command? It’s tracking in 10 min increments but I see other !watchtime commands counting down seconds
@quiet thorn just a sec
${user} has spent ${user.time_online|'0 seconds'} watching ${channel}
try copying this
and tell me if it worked
the watch-time leader board is tracked in 10 minute intervals.
and also u have it in default commands just scroll a bit down
Am I gonna be able to do this from my phone?
streamelements isn't responding in my channel 😦
@craggy wedge Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
I tried parting and rejoining a few times, didn't fix the issue
@craggy wedge 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

- 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
try to logout
and log in
and try it again
it happened to me too
but i dont remember what i did
I made it work, thank you!
For a command such as !deaths that responds User has died $(count) times! NotLikeThis, what is the name of this counter to use with !editcounter? Similar to how you can use $(count deathcount) and !editcount deathcount 0. Is it !editcount !deaths 0 (doesn't work) or something else?
The response for SE should be User has died ${count deaths} times! NotLikeThis - this will increment counter value. To edit it you need to use !editcounter deaths 0
While you can set the name explicitly, the question is what is the implicit name (the name used when a name isn't provided). Is it set to the command name? Is it _deaths? etc.
I think you need to specify name there. I am not sure of behavior when no name is provided
are chatstats down ? been down all day
possibly so @tiny citrus
I'd say lets check tomorrow as it could be a back-end scheduled 'cleanup' that takes place sometimes
tomorrow we'll also have more dev available to check for us
Hello everyone, i have a problem with follow notifications. I don't know how to make the notification appear only one time for person. Thanks for the help
hello, how can I make a custom bot name without using OBS.live?
I've read that if you have ground control this can be possible, but how?
its been 12 hours and i've not had a response here yet, shall i make an official bug report to devs?
Seems like bot is working and active on your channel. I cannot check settings there to make sure, but I think that SE.Staff member can check your settings
if that was a response to me, its a channel i moderate for and have editor rights
Can you give me channel's name please?
Uber_Nerd
@dark pendant The bot needs to be a moderator to perform chat protection actions.
it is
and has been working fine for everything else
It is not modded. I just went to that channel and typed /mods
StreamElements is not on that list
@untold crest you know how to connect a custom bot with ground control?
I don't want to use OBS.Live because most of my pluggins don't work there
@frigid sparrow Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
thanks, i will inform the broadcaster, no idea how it was unmodded, maybe by mistake
why is there no follower alert as one of the options?
You're logged into youtube.
@viscid pebble i've send to you the ID, now i'm just wait?
oh thx
What is the overlay height and width supposed to be on obs
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
@frigid sparrow paste account ID here. SE.Support is a bot, so it cannot handle it 😉
Hi! Is there an API capable of taking data from an Excel spreadsheet or from a document in matrix form (row x column) to use in SE?
@frigid sparrow I have forwarded that.
@untold crest thanks 🙂
@north leaf It would require something that could output this data for you as bot/overlay cannot access local files or parse webhosted files on their own.
@untold crest just a question, someone will talk to my in DM? or how can I know if something have change?
Hello everyone. I'm living in Norway and have over 100 followers, but still SE.Pay is not available for me. Is it possible to unlock it?

I'll ask a staff member to take a look when they have time 🙂
Okay, thanks @wary halo 😀
Hello everyone, I need help, because whenever someone in my chat is writing! Watchtime always comes out that he is watching my stream for 0 sec.
@gaunt oracle 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.
Norway is not one of the countries that is supported for SEpay
So what must i do?
activate this: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Ohh, okay
@wary halo That's all and watchtime going?
yes, but only after 10 minutes
so it takes a bit
thx
How to get a follower comment that says thank you for following from streamelements

if I'm experiencing lag/delays and issues rendering alerts when using AlertBox with all options selected, do you think it would be a possible fix to split the alert up for each one. so a separate alert for each follower/sub/tip etc?
Hello, since a few days that when my followers want to host me, the alert does not appear, but all other alerts work perfectly. I already tested the host alert and it works so I don't know what's going on
no, that will only make it worse since you have to load more browser sources
@strong ridge "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."
any idea on what i should do? have been creating alerts for a friend, has been working completely fine from my end when creating them. but upon sending to him, it's all rather broken
don't think so, he's got a pretty kitted out pc for streaming
can't imagine it being a hardware issue
Hi guys, is there a way to block the image size in the alerts? thanks 😄
I'm sitting in the Bot Module trying to edit the alerts messages to my liking and the first one "followers" works just fine, but the others will not be saved. It says that it have been saved after I have customised the message, but when I switch to something else and then go back, its back to default message. Is there a setting I'm missing?
@wary halo could you help me please?
what do you mean with block the image size?
set the size to a fixed amount, if i stretch the alert box the image becomes bigger
that is how the alertbox works, why do you want to make the box bigger but not the alert?
I would like to show the text for the subs/donations but the box is too small and i can't make it bigger because the image will take too much space on the screen
it works, but i have to refresh every time i have edited the message, for the new one to show. at least now i can progress, thank you!
you can try to use the advanced text settings to make it fit better, there also used to be a dynamic font size option but I can't find it right now
nothing in the advanced setting and i can't find the dynamic font size too
How to giveaway channelpoints to anyone in chat?

hello I'm trying to set up a tiltify overlay alerts etc thru stream elements and I have no idea how to
hello I want to add an overlay and is not fitting right, can someone help me?

Any plans to add integrations with Coinbase or so for crypto tips?
Been investing in crypto for a while, and it would be nifty to allow an alternative with that
so i have this problem they can re-follow on my twitch and will apear on the alert box anyone know how to solve it?
1UpCoin - Cryptocurrency donations done easy!
has SE integration
@wise torrent There is a way but it would apply to all the other alerts as well. Not just follows.
so there's a way to solve it?
but this remove all the alerts from that guy? because everyone can do this, like re-follow my twitch and will apear
It won't show any more if you do that.
Downside is it'll apply to all alerts for them (cheer, tip, sub/gift).
Hi!
trying to find a way to add subtitles to the stream, any idea on the easiest way ?
https://www.pubnub.com/developers/twitch-tv-obs-subtitles/ use this way better then web captioner and all you have to do is keep the tab open @indigo bone
interesting thanks
no problem
but like if they are one of my subs and re-sub they will not apear so.. u have another option to do this?
Unfortunately no.
.
Hi, I am trying to add 2 counters together then divide 1 of the counter by that total to get a percentage. I was given something yesterday here, but that just results in "???". What I've got is:
${customapi.https://twitch.center/customapi/math?expr=${getcount <GulagW>}+${getcount <GulagL>}/${getcount <GulagW>}}
I'm sure it is just a syntax issue.
@wary halo hey, it didnt work. i was only able to test it now
i still cant edit the tipping notification
is anyone happpy to help explain how i can show my recent donations in stream lagbs
@ashen crystal 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.
Is it possible to make a custom command that is similar to single raffle? But doesn't give out points? Ex. Being making the command !quest and chat enters thru !join or !enter
And it spits out only 1 user that entered?
Hmmm trying to do a custom cmd with 2 outcomes but it's giving me an error in respons
The command: $(random.pick '$(sender) is a big SIMP..EleGiggle' '$(sender) isn't a simp..POGGERS')
Can't find what I did wrong

@abstract hemlock sorry to bother, but another raid alert just failed to fire 2 minutes ago
How can I disconnect my twitch from stream elements?
hello there, Is there any issue with the paypal-SE these days? I got a 5€ donation and it doesnt triggered my alerts, nor doesnt show up in my "recent tips" box... BUT it show my "latest tipper" any idea?
THanks in advance
@violet rock 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
I tried use command on chat and not working
@crimson stump Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
yes i try that not working
tha Payment Status: COMPLETED, as I see on the paypal website, also the money recieved to my account... I also add manually to my revenue history as a tip, but still not works... also the The sender of this payment is Non-US - Verified
How do I put the chat in the screen
you have to add the chat widget to your overlay
Is there any opportunity to get the name in the box of the alert? I can´t move the text separately
thx
Set your layout to text over image and then adjust text margin
I learned
Hi, I’m just tryna sort out the loyalty settings. I’m streaming directly from ps4, will the loyalty points still work for me? Also do I have to be an affiliate for them to work? Thank you
thanks, but where do I adjust text margin
@wanton shale 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.
No you not need to be affiliate, you can enable it here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Then click part channel log out from dashboard, wait a bit then login back and click join channel.
Ok thanks, that worked. How can the text reveal a bit later than the alert itself?
Ok, thank you very much @nimble dune
You're welcome! 
How do we know when our ticket has been completed?
Go here https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/requests sign in, and there should write solved
Hello i am needing help w SE not sending any messages in my chat, i sent a DM on twitter but im needing this solved quickly
@charred oasis Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)

cant get them to do anything
they're all added
the tips for mine doesn’t work either
it just says pending and it’s been like this for a week now
Hey all. Hopefully in the right forum for this. Trying to multistream on Twitch+FB through OBS studio. Did the stream key and URL pasting under the 'Custom...' option under 'Settings->Stream'. Not getting any feed through either service. No indications of any errors and OBS studio says I'm live. Is there another magic trick I'm missing?
StreamElements doesn't support multistreaming so you have to use something like restream.io
Ok, gotcha. Thanks!

thx:)
can i use overlays on twitch for xbox
@next bloom Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app and a PC with OBS in order to have overlays over your console gameplay.
We have a blog post about how to set up console streaming with our essential tools: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
it only gives me the option to stream on youtube id like to stream on twitch
@minor crescent StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
@prisma relic I wanted to pop in and give a quick report. I've gone back into my overlay & ripped out all the CSS except for some bare bones styling. After doing so the game part of the overlay works like a champ, no noticeable delay. So it's obviously the amount of styling that I have in there. Guess it's back to the drawing board to see what/where I need to lean out my styling for this to still work & look nice.
Having some issues with the Chat Alerts in Modules.
I have custom sub messages for 1, 2, 6, and 13 months set up. However I have had issues of 7/8 months subs getting the 6 month message. Does the chat alerts not take into account if they were gifted a sub?
@glacial monolith do you have a specific message setup for 7/8 months?
No I thought the Months would only reply to those specific months
set it to EXACT in the alertbox
this isnt in alert box
ah i see
This is the chat messages in modules
Oh...yeah, sorry, can't help there.
i want emotes to my twitch were to find or make?
Is anyone willing to get into a call? I've modded streamelements, but nothing happens when I try to do commands. I've used the bot in the past, but I changed my username, so that may be what's causing this problem.
@reef torrent 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).
Someone who can talk and help me to get sub logo and emotes for my twitch?
as I said before, there are artists in #art-marketplace channel that can do that
I dont have permisions to send in that chat
like everyone else, you can look for artist that you like, click their links to go to their websites and contact them there
How can I move the text on alert box to the left hand side of the image?
hola hola..

Hey I need help with discord
Is it possible to make the kappagen zoom, blur, bubble etc. by a chat input? Or is it only random if you pick random
Trying to upload emote but it too big how to make it smaller
i want streamelements send a whisper when people typing !points in the chat cause is too much spamming, how i do this? i know i can modify the command but what do i have to write? $(user) has $(user.points) $(pointsname) and is rank $(user.points_rank) on the leaderboard.
In your dashboard, custom commands include a dropdown menu that lets you choose how the message is sent.
Doesn't show anything...
Trying to upload emote but it too big how to make it smaller does anyone know how to help for discord btw
We do not provide support for Discord issues. You should reach out to Discord.
Hello, I added the chat box to my overlay, the only option for a transparent background for the chat is "Custom". However this also makes the chats messages Black instead of White, making them unreadable because of the color of my overlays, is there a way around this?
You wanna change the background color of the chat?
I want the background to be transparent, to do that I have to choose Custom, however choosing custom automatically changed the chat messages color to black, making it too dark to see. The messages are white with the dark mode theme, but that also makes the chat box a big grey box on screen.
I don't see the option for that.. What is it called?
That is the background color though. The chat messages will still be black.
There is no color option, tried it, there is a shadow option, but it distorts the names as well when messages come up.
The circle is the color option Isn’t it
Not that I can see
Click the circle
Which circle?
You don’t see it
I don't see it even in your screen shot? If you mean the enable button I already did, but no color options besides text shadow.
I see the arrow, it's pointing to "Times New Roman". I don't see another circle.
It’s the thing after time new roman
Yea I don't see it, on your screenshot, or in my settings.
The gray-ish circle is for the chat color
Thank you @wary halo
If you can't see it, you need a doctor to look at your eyes 
I really don't see it...
This is what I see
I found it, It wasn't showing for me on Microsoft Edge, I tried Chrome just not and I see it. It works. Thank you very much.
Although kinda weird I didn't see it in the screenshot ? But works now. Thanks again.
No problem
My donation alert isnt working 😦 can anyone help me out? please!

How do I set my own custom donation amount like the goal bar from Streamlabs? I can't rely only on weekly/session/monthly/etc.
You must be using your StreamElements tipping page to have tips trigger alerts.
What are you referring to?
I'm sure I have!
You have a paypal.me link in your Twitch panels.
Tips through there do not communicate with our system.
Ohhh I see
So now the link from streamlabs should automatically work?
I've added that instead
is there anyway i can test it
Hey guys, i have this problem with alerts, they only show a half of the image
also, my latest tip stream label isnt working..
You have not received any tips through your StreamElements tipping page. Therefore, there is no latest tip for the widget to use.
oh i seee, yes ofc bc the most recent have been through paypal
is there anyway to test this?
@glass stirrup 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

how do i set it up so new followers show up on the live?
I can't set a custom starting goal. For example, I would like it to start off from $10.
Instead, it calculates everything.
@spiral jetty To reset goals:
- from the Overlay Editor > Session data on top right (monitor symbol) > Goals tab > reset progress of desired goal
- from the Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets (progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you lose followers/subs.
So I need to reset the goal? I can't set a custom starting amount?
Can someone help me, the streamelements do not work for me on my Twitch channel, I do not see the commands, the timers or anything like that
Today my alert sound created a stutter during my stream 😦 when i go into streamelements, the sound is fine. help
@vapid lake Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
also the preview live doesnt work. The browser will open and i get a blank page
well figured it out, but the preview of it doesnt work on the website
Figured it out. ❤️
@viscid pebble
Those are my commands
and they are not working
Thanks for solving the problem😁
I make my overlays through streamelements so my recent follower and recent sub and all of that and I use it on my stream. I stream at a Steady bitrate and resolution and everything in my stream looks good but the streamelements overlay are pixelated please help
@halcyon folio Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
I tested by tipping $1 and it still didnt show an alert/the stream label
I added stream elements and added a overlay but I dont see it on my stream. Does it only work on pc as I stream directly from my ps4 and was adding things from my mobile
@orchid needle Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app and a PC with OBS in order to have overlays over your console gameplay.
We have a blog post about how to set up console streaming with our essential tools: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
@vapid lake yeah happen to me command not working. i told them nobody help
Turn off followers-only mode.
Not working @strong kernel
You didn't turn it off.
yes i did
i didnt get what you try do
Please turn off followers-only mode in your Twitch chat.
@ivory kettle 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/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png

@ivory kettle 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
@ivory kettle 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
@strong kernel okay then what
You still have not disabled followers-only mode.
refresh
im tell you i turn off @strong kernel
And I'm showing you you did not.
0 min does not mean off.
@crimson stump 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
Is there a way to make a command that shows a name on screen, similar to a counter has? ive been racking my brain for ages
okay sorry then lol thank help @strong kernel
Hi Helpdesk - I accidentally banned Stream elements as a mod for my channel and Im kinda stuck trying to get it re activated. Any help would be great. Thanks.
So /unban it?
Unfortunately, does not work. I also tried to add back as a bot on dashboard but always says theres a problem?... Unless I am not typing correctly in twitch chat to begin with?
Got it! I was typing wrong. Wahhh my bad. but thanks for help 🙂
Hello, a question yesterday I entered streamelements, I put alerts and overlays and entered the theme gallery, I created an overlay that I liked but when I went to my overlays and wanted to edit it, it did not let me see others and it did not leave me too. It says I'm offline and I don't know what to do 😦
@pallid cobalt Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
@pallid cobalt Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
I already did and it was not solved
hello! my tips are setup but its never let me withdrawl, I've had it setup for a really long time so im not sure what the issue is.
😦
I guess Stream Elements can't do simple math in a command. Thanks for the not help. Jeez...
is there any way on shortening the alert sound length ?
messing around with it and i can only get the actual alert to shut off in 5 seconds and not the audio
is channel points in twitch channel able to be used for merch at somepoint
Hey, so I'm attempting to you the subscriber goal widget, and it seems to be reading the "subscription goal progress" rather than the "total subscriber", and it won't change when someone subs, unless I manually change it from widget data on the site, any solution?
@tacit dragon Read and follow our server rules:

@graceful coyote u mean for an alert?
Goal widgets do not use your total subscribers. They are standalone counters that go up, never down.
no i'm not syaing it's going down
it just won't change
but if i change the goal progress then it changes
@lyric talon Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
in like the stream store on streamelements for merch
We do not have any connection with Twitch channel points, nor are the Loyalty points connected to SE.Merch.
okay just wondering if we do something with them for are communities are we able to do codes for percent off to help push merch
To repeat: Goal bars are never tied to your total subscribers.
It is only tied to the goal progress in our system.
okay so what is the best way to use it i guess is what i'm trying to ask
am i using it for the wrong purpose
That is up to you. It will go up with every subscriber that is seen by our system. It never goes down unless you yourself reset it.
Can anyone help me with the bot?
Every subscriber that is seen by our system.
It has nothing to do with your total.
oh so there can be subs that aren't detected
@lyric talon Prime Gaming (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 Prime Gaming, 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
@lament blade Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
Oh ok
So basically my bot won’t show up in my streams I have have it activated but just didn’t show up idk why
Can I get any help?
we need to hit for are first payout is it needed to hit 100 or as a whole over time
from subs, bits,etc
You need to ask Twitch. We are not involved with bit and sub payouts.
k
Question can you set up links through icons on your overlays?
No. Overlays cannot be interacted with.
So those would have to be separate alerts or widgets I’m new to the whole streaming setup
Overlays can never be interacted with. Viewers can't just click on an icon in your stream.
Set up your links in your panels instead.
question whenever i stream my commands don't work but when i get out of stream it starts working... why is this?
.
@lament blade 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

- 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
See I'm streaming from ps4 and control streamelements
I change my username in Twitch after that the is not working any more
When i add a alert box or stream label its doesnt show up on editor and when i close and reopen the same it show something went wrong
@ocean tangle 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).
twitch username o8nut
Hi i have been making custom commands for my stream but even thought i deleted them all my lurk command still works... i made a mistake in it and im trying to get it to work but i cant get rid of the old one
I keep getting the error: Failed to connect to server. The connection was blocked. Check your firewall /antivirus to make sure that obs has full internet access: I have ive tried changing the firewall settings but the only way that I can get it to work is by uninstalling stream elememts live and just running bhase obs
trying to setup
.
can someone help me stream this on twitch for console

My pld name:fixl_f
My new name:fixlf
My issues got fixed i deleted the account and recreated and now i get the options , I just wanted to inform the same as i didnt get any response
i deleted the streamelements one which asks for jwt tokens
my viewers and subs are not getting correct responses from the bot about how long they have been watching or the points they have it tells them zero which is not true and will not allow them to play slots or anything of those command types and was wondering what i can do to fix it
@icy root 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.
now when my friends follow no popup alert doesnt show up in streamelements activity feed
😦 so many issues
is there a way to obtain some better editing tool for merch?
or is there like a template that i could DL to fit my designs?
cant access my store
Thank you!
Hey why doesn't my follower goal show my actual follower amount or give me an option to select the base amount before the stream?
@alpine schooner To reset goals:
- from the Overlay Editor > Session data on top right (monitor symbol) > Goals tab > reset progress of desired goal
- from the Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets (progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you lose followers/subs.
thanks 🙂
Moin Jungs,
Seit Paar tagen funktioniert mein Streamelements nicht bei Twitch..
Kann mir evtl jemand auf deutsch helfen ?
Ich habe schon sämtliche sachen ausprobiert aber alles leider nicht geklappt...
Ich würde mich freuen wenn mir jemand helfen könnte..
Besten Dank und Frohes Neues Jahr
#🇩🇪︱deutsch @gritty gazelle
why is it that my chat stats are just absolutely 0? how to fix it and I did change my name from killerextwitch to killerexlive
hello I've got a question I want to do a 16 hour mining stream and for every follow the countdown is going up by 5 minutes, so the question is, is there already a widget for doing a countdown wich goes up in some occasions?
Yes, check in #widget-share @soft maple
ok thx
@long rover wdym absolutely 0? I see there are stats recorded: https://stats.streamelements.com/c/killerexlive
@zenith widget yesterday when I checked it it was 0
not able to find loyalty system in streamelements
there was an issue with chatstats yesterday that should have been fixed today @long rover
@soft storm Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
oh, I saw your message just now in #helpdesk-youtube @soft storm , you can ignore as you have the answer there
How can I put only words on my merch
If I already deleted my merch
@placid raptor ?

Hi
What do you mean? you want to add text?
What do you mean by 'if I already deleted my merch'?
alright thanks
Yeah
I messed up my merch trying to add a logo and now it won’t let me just and words
Or letters
Or a don’t know how
*i
text addition is not currently a feature. It's planned but I can't provide an ETA at the moment
if you had text in your design and you removed your design, you'll need to edit your artwork to contain the text you're interested in @spice bison
I know but it’s only letting me put a small size of my logo
Ok
Whenever I start a giveaway, i'm the only person that can enter. Even when the person trying to enter has enough tickets.
Or points
Channel name? No links please.
retroshix
Where do I find that?
May be under enter though.
It worked, thanks!
Hello, I'm having audio issues with my Twitch stream. I'm sure I probably just have something set wrong, but for some reason, you can't hear my voice if you replay my stream VOD. All other audio from the PS5 and my PC plays just fine. My voice is the only thing missing. Any ideas?
@fathom onyx If you are not hearing your alerts and/or Media Request, you are most likely using the Control Audio via OBS option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/199460642975907840/685371800456134686/unknown.png
I just wanted to get the screenshot
You see track 1 2 3 4 5 6, right?
make sure you microphone is going intro track 2 and 3
or the tick is on those tracks
anyone know why the StreamElements Chat Stats are so innacurate?
theyre missing thousands of messages
i understand sorry
@placid raptor no, its not just me either, anyone i check the stats are way lower than expected
i dont know how starting stream cs go at the twitch in obs
@placid raptor for example, my friend has been streaming with streamelements for most of the time ive watched her, and it says on my profile on twitch i have 999+ messages in her chat, but on StreamElements Chat Stats it says 91 lol
@idle goblet Valve has implemented a trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post here https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/.
Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in trusted mode.
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8835-KLXV-0292#whitelist
You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and use Window Capture instead.
Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software.
we don't have the same count @pearl flint if they haven't used us for the entire time or if they changed their name tracking could have been inconsistent
we will need to update such things while twitch just keeps counting
still, were are you looking to see this difference?
@placid raptor im aware the numbers should be slightly different, but i have sent at least 100 messages this week, and it says in my lifetime ive sent 91... shes been using streamelements for over a year now... just seems odd. also my own channels stats seem off as well: https://stats.streamelements.com/c/MomoMiles
Chatstat has some issues during the past couple of days as can be seen in msgs above,
I saw internally that it was fixed yesterday
hm
but these around thousands of messages off?
idk it doesnt bother me i just thought id bring it up just so yall know that this was happening
oooh we know, trust me 
It's not in a 100% stable state atm unfortunately
we've put in core product efforts for this year and on our timeline should also be a solution for this
this is not backed up by dev, it's my own theory
but if so, we will know later in the first half of this year I believe and will be able to communicate it publicly
but again, these ETAs are from my own head, so not guaranteed it's 100% accurate
Ok, I'll double check that and test it. Thank you!
Excuse you? 
what does that even mean @lament blade ? do you need assistance with something?
Because I can not do what I want to do streaming
what?
Is there a way to make a command that shows a name on screen, similar to a counter has? ive been racking my brain for ages
I believe there was one widget in #widget-share that can do that
Is there a way to make a command that shows the time in a certain time zone and have it stay up to date?
I shall have a look. Thanks KeiZar
@young sinew check the very last pinned message (or first, how ever you see it)
Any idea where abouts in there LUL There are so many!
not really, sorry
Okayy
Very bottom.
Happy New Year everyone. As a new start into the year i would like to have my Chat Stats reset. Thank you. (An Current / All Time Option would be awesome)
Hi anyone know how i could fix my commands the lurk comand though deleted still works and i want it gone
I want to put a new lurk command as the old one is wrong but even though i make a new one the old one still shows
It might be an alias for another one.
Unless you know someone who has an available endpoint to grab it no.
Because there has been no demand for it.
Hey everybody not sure what is going on but Stream Elements isn't grabbing my Twitch Data. When I stream and someone follows nothing happens in the overlay, bot or activity feed. Even my dashboard is blank. I went to Twitch disconnected stream elements and then signed back in but this didn't help. Any ideas?
I will have to poke the devs on this.
Yeah I tried a few times to remove SE from my Twitch and re-add it. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here haha. What's weird is when I go LIVE it shows I'm live on the dashboard.
Also the quick settings work just fine.
doing that will not fix the issue
its something on our side that we need to fix
and its not working so i'm poking the devs about this
hi everyone, a channel i mod for on twitch has a subcount command but for the last few days the command always shows up as 0 subscribes even though they have a few hundred, is there any way to fix it ? ive tried changing the command but it still shows as 0 so im not sure if its just an account glitch ?
HAR file? @wet iris
what?
@untold minnow part the bot and join it again on the channel
Yeah it's the file that tells you what is connecting and not connecting when I visit the dash like the errors and what not.
will that reset all of the commands if i part the bot ?
@wet iris no i don't need that
nope @untold minnow
okay sweet thankyou so much for your help !
no worries!
OK sounds good 🙂
I have 9 followers on Twitch but my follower-goal shows 18...
@gritty flume To reset goals:
- from the Overlay Editor > Session data on top right (monitor symbol) > Goals tab > reset progress of desired goal
- from the Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets (progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you lose followers/subs.
i have a problem the followers alart dont display in activity feed
@wraith jay no need to post in 3 different channels
ok srry
i've reported your account to the devs
THX
@zenith widget I want to fix this problem as soon as possible so that I can go back to the broadcast
I would like to add a command like "catfacts" or "wisdom quotes" that can be redeemed for loyalty points. Is there any other way to do it than "chat commands" that have a limit of 500 characters?
can't give an ETA
@alpine heart not sure exactly what you are trying to do there.
When using the command !catfacts or !wisdom, a random quote shows up. But doing this through chat command limits the characters to 500 so only a few facts/quotes can be entered..
Ill look into it, thanks
hi guys i have some problems setuping my allerts on obs
i followed all the steps, copying and pastying the url of streamelements overlay on the source browser on obs
it should show the allert on obs too when i play it on streamelements
all the steps is not just using the URL, you have to properly create your overlay, test it, save it, and then create it as a browser source
@spice dome 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
right, i did
ty<3
if you see any issues describe them here
right
Hi Guys not really an SE question but does anyone know if the Twitch Sound Alerts extension (pay bits to play audio snippet) also contributes setting off and continuening a hype train?

that's like waaaay out there
a definite response would come from twitch, I don't think any1 here is 'qualified' to give you a 100% answer
my guess is anything that is given to the streamer will add up to the hype train
yeah can't find real definitive stuff on it
i mean goodluck with that xD but yeah they'll be the peeps I'd check it with
thanks
no worries 
Hi, my donation widget is linked and when someone donates i get an email from paypal saying ive received funds yet theres no alert on my stream. Can someone please help?
what link is set in your twitch panel? 
Hey how do I work the bot modules tip section? Do I need an alert for every amount possible there?
nope
just set to 1 and everything above 1 will post the bot notification in chat
but that's not a visual alert on your stream, it's a chat alert
meaning the bot saying 'XYZ tipped ZYX'
in chat
@placid raptor nothing to do 😦
i tried following the steps, but when i play the allert on streamelements the source on obs remaince black
For the points of the store to be counted do I need to activate the bot on my channel or is it not necessary?
Loyalty should be and enabled, bot should be in the channel modded and unmuted @amber basalt
Hey! Im having trouble with making an alertbox... Maybe it has been answered before but i recently bought an overlay package and now want to get the name of the follower inside the pop up video that says "new follower" but it either appears underneath, on the side or disappears completely when i choose the option for it to be inside the image in overlay editor... Also noticed that when i try to make a subscriber alert, upload the video that i want, it insted plays one of the templet ones insted of the one i uploaded... Does that mean i have to make an alertbox for every single alert? First time user of Streamelements here

You should have an alertbox for all of the types, just have to make sure to go over them all and configure them properly
regarding the overlay package please provide a screen capture of the behavior you're describing from the editor
It doesnt play the chosen alertvid, nor sound nor inside the bar that the animation should display
anyone else having problems with your new follows and such not appearing?
@lament blade Check variations of alert, because you may have one for resubs
@buoyant otter "and such"? or specifically followers?
@untold crest Thanks! Unticked everyone of those, now the designated one plays but now remains the same issue with the follower alert, The video is showing a "bar" revealing itself and says "new follower" or "new subscriber" but the name of the person doesnt appear inside the animated bar
@lament blade 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.
@placid raptor I'm gonna hit the hay so will have another loook tomorrow
Aaah that helped! Thanks!
Is it also possible to decide when the text should appear and go away to make it smoother?
@placid raptor thanks appreciate it!
play around with your widget settings @lament blade
I trust you'll find the right settings
Hello, can I get some help? I wanna setup tips and donations and I'm having trouble with it... I'm pretty new to this
Primary text is the 'title' of the alert, and secondary text is the message (in case of tips for example) @lament blade
I'm using XSplit, does it work with that?
no worries @glacial cloak 
I got PayPal activated but I can't put it on twitch app
Can't find right tab or right way to do it
hey @honest tendon if possible next time post your entire query in one message please, just for the sake of order
our alerts work with xsplit, just need to set your StreamElements account up properly
follow the initial bot and tipping page setup in your account, once you have your tipping link activated donations will trigger alerts
make sure you've set up the overlay correctly, test with emulations in the editor

I'll try what you just said (I think I have the bots set, but only freeware ones, can't put money into this right now although I'd like to)
omg. why not use OBS?
I have 0 knowledge on xsplit, the only thing I know it costs money
Found it! Thanks for all the help, it looks great now! Almost tore my hair out for not figuring it out but now im happy! 😄
There are some nice features on freebie and it's apparently less taxative on my rig than obs got after an update
it's ok you said you're just starting, it takes some time but the more you play around with it the more you find is "customizable" and pretty easy at the end of the day @lament blade
What do you guys recommend as game and camera capture software? To work best with StreamElements and Twitch?
Does any software offer free multiplataform streaming?
I'd like specially twitch and Facebook but also YouTube maybe
Mmmm StreamElements doesn't support multistreaming @honest tendon
and I don't have exact statistics but I believe most of our users use OBS Studio or OBS.Live or SLOBS (for which we cannot provide support)
I'd wholeheartedly recommend OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live - I've never had any real serious issues in about 2 years
but it's up to you to check if it really is more demanding to your system than other streaming programs
Hi! Is there any way to put a custom font on my overlay? Not a Google font, but one that I downloaded
i think XSplit is fine for me (from all software i tried i liked it the best, although i dont think i "mastered" the others closely as i did with this - "mastering" is a bit of a stretch, but...)
i just dont know if things would run better with other software, but it's my rigs fault (kinda old gamer laptop by Acer)
how do i fix this it says i cant start stream bcause shadowplay is running
turn off shadowplay?
sorry
that's a first, I use shadowplay all the time
are you using OBS Studio or OBS.Live @kindred kayak ?
@honest tendon I really don't know what the difference is between xsplit resource consumption and OBS
both my PCs are stronger than the attached screenshot so I really don't know
@placid raptor did you see my question or should I ask on another channel? I don't know if this is the correct one to ask for these things
I'm actually checking for you backstage @hot eagle
It'll take a sec
Oh, thank you!
so @hot eagle as long as the font is installed on your PC and you get the name right in the widget's text settings (Custom font family name I believe) it should work
Hi friends, I have a problem regarding my follow alert. Unfortunately Stream Elements stopped tracking my Followers in its activity feed which is why (i suppose) the alert does not get displayed. My Twitch name is the same a my discord name, thanks!
My Scene's on my Stream Elements is taking some time to load is there a way to make it load faster?
Anyone else having issues with Custom Chat Bot? ive linked my account multiple times but it wont give me the option to select it. Only my profile and StreamElements.
Did you make it a Mod in your Twitch?
Yeah I had it on before and after the update on OBS it changed. But ill double check.
Yeah its a mod.
Hmmm give me a min
@next raft Do you have them on a timer?
It worked! Thank you very much! 😄
no worries <3
The bot? No...?
Try to put what you want on a Timer like for exp Welcome to my Channel
Oh no its not the commands Im having issues with. Its the custom bot name. I cant select it even after loggin in with the credentials. @lament blade
O I honestly thought it was the commands.... Im very Sorry
@lament blade no worries. Maybe I worded it wrong LOL
@summer prawn i have the same problem
anychance to get the sender avatar. Like {{sender.avatar}}?
So no solutions to the Custom Chatbot name?
@next raft have you tried the obs.live plugin for obs to change the bots name ?
@next raft 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
@plush spear yes by going to Activity Feed. Selecting Custom Bot name. Login in. And it wont give me the option after doing all that. And this is on StreamElements.
Yes ive done all that. Multiple times. I successfully log in. But it wont let me select the custom bot account or send a test message.
Then try this
"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."
LOL you lost me
hi, timers not working on my stream
Im just gonna go ahead and wait for the update. Id hate to mess this up completely and ruin the program completetly.
@next raft There's no update. You have to fix this by following the instructions.
oof
my streamelements still isn't keeping up with follower count nor latest follower and it isn't showing up in activity feed. it's early this week from last week that this issue was first brought up. hello?
I had the se.pay last night but today it’s gone I was going to setup that up. I have over 100 followers I’m not sure why it went away.
How do I zoom out from the activity feed? I accidentally zoomed in

how do you get the alerts in the premade overlays to work in obs
Add them to your Overlay Dashboard (so they pull data from your linked Twitch account), and then click Edit on that overlay and go to the top right to the LINK icon which will highly "Copy Overlay URL"
then in OBS, add a Browser source, and paste that URL in the top field! Make sure the dimensions match the widget's dimensions
thank you so much for the help 
So I'm trying to use a chatbot from streamelements, but on my obs the font im using doesnt show up and instead its some ugly default one, how do i fix this

Anyone able to fix the subcount comamnd issue in Streamelements, saw it was posted in here a few times
watchtime doesnt work for me????
Sub goal widget works correctly, just not the subcount command
part the bot > logout [https://streamelements.com/logout] > login > re-invite the bot > mod it and make sure it's unmuted > ??? > profit
[for the subcount showing 0 issue]
Apologies for asking this a second time in one week, but I was hoping someone may have an answer to it - is it possible to retrieve a streamer's schedule data? The idea being here to automatically show the next stream's date and time on a stream ending scene?
Anyone use Lightstream to stream from PS5 without a capture card?
If so, help would be greatly appreciated 😅
How do I can setup this? It should disappear after a few Seconds. How do I do that? Its the Emote Counter Combo thing. Now I used Fade In, Fade out in the "Animation Setting" but it still stays for lifetime
Watchtime command is just completely broken and hasn't been counting time for a couple months. Any ideas?
you cant get the watchtime back. Just count from now ig
any helpers?
Help alerts not working
I’m having trouble adding a sound to my alerts. I don’t want the default alert noise but when I put a custom sound in, it messes up the alert entirely
I am trying to set up my tip button. I put the pic in the panel and the link given from streamelements into the picture links to section and when I hit submit it says something went wrong try again and i dont know what is causing it or how to fix it.
yeah it's a twitch issue that happens sometimes, might want to wait a bit and try again

hey there, just started streaming on twitch with obs/streamelements
is there a way to get the bot to tts only to me and not have it play on stream?
Hello, I managed to add my twitch and yt acc on streamelements but I wondered if it could be possible to merge them or get rid of one since I just want to use one for now?
How do I make challenges?
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
[9:05 PM]
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 those tokens to @lament blade when you have them 😉
Thanks!! Will do
What kind of challenges?
Any kind tbh just to make my community more fun.

Any way to view the raw HTML/JS for overlay templates? I would like to modify the "Subscriber Goal" label so it only adds +1 when a new subscriber is detected, thus ignoring all resubs.
Can someone please Help ---> #helpdesk-twitch message
WHEN I DO !WATCHTIME IT ALWAYS SAYS 0 SECS
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.
and caps off
@waxen jasper
so once i enable loyalty will watctime reset? or if someone watched me for 5 hours before i had loyalty, will it not count
Ok so i need some help with media request
hi was wondering about if there was an update to this
i changed my twitch username and would like to get streamelements working again!
did you do ALL the other steps mentioned there?
because giving the names is ONLY for the chatstats
the rest is all fixed by the other steps
Is there anyway to make a command that edits another command so I do not have to type out the full !command edit?
good afternoon, my channel overlays hosted by streamelements have stopped working, when i send pre view opens white screen, and when i send edit it is in an infinite load, I tried to get ready overlays and it happens the same, already deletes all and I did it again and it happens the same
Is there any tip or solution, when the alert box is lagging as f....? Have a custom webm which I want to use for a follow.
how do you switch the streaming output from youtube to twitch?
Twitch
wdym
log out in the StreamElements tab in OBS, then relog with Twitch
website is down ?

sory i just joined
how do you setup a alert box for followers
i am logged
i have stream on
doesn't matter

k
it's a re-authentication thing with Twitch
ah ye
thx so much
sorry to bother easy shit like this
btw i know this is nt right place but i wtb more themes
No problem 😄
hi thre, maybe someone will know the solution to my problem. I have a problem with my sub alert. I think my overlay is set in a way that all kind of subs have the exact same alert - all variations are turned off. HOWEVER! if another sub gives someone else a sub - there is a diferent alert - it has my graphics for an alert, my sound for an alert but there is a TTS (at the moment i dont want it at all), and the bot on chat does something like combining the regular alert info (in Polish, set by me - red underline) with the info that someone gifted a sub (looks like a default msg)
i always use them.. so much moded myself
the problem is - as mentioned - all variations are turned off
You clicked gear for subs and all variations are deleted?
quick question, I was using the "alertbox" widget in an overlay I was trying to make and I changed some settings in the "Follower alert." Is there a way to sync those changes to the other alerts or would I have to do those one by one?
To sub alerts etc?
@dry hare all off
Click the gears and delete any variations that might be there
