hey guys, can overlays be exported and imported between 2 SE accounts? I have a twitch one and a fb gaming one and i wanna move the overlays from one to the other without starting from scratch?
@ornate heart Click the 3 dots under the overlay in the library and click duplicate. You should have an option to copy to your other account.
@ionic kelp that's if your 2 channels are under 1 SE account - Mine are 2 separate SE accounts
"Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your channel name at the top of the dashboard
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted
Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0"
Then you can do it.
You can either irreversibly merge your accounts to do as I initially said or you can keep them separate and be added as an editor and keep them separate.
how do i merge accounts - i didn't see you say that previously?
I didn't. I was referring to the copy while linked.
can you see how i may be confused?
Yeah.
With them currently separated you can add yourself as an editor to copy it the way I initially said.
You can also merge the accounts together (And can't be undone without deleting both accounts) and making a simple flop back and forth between accounts to copy it instead of logging in and out.
Good night, how are you? My name is Raphael and I'm having problems with the store and about "!" in my lives. I have the items registered in the store but they don't appear in the store, only on my streamelements dashboard. I also have a problem about "!", I create my commands but they don't work in my lives. What can it be?
ok ok so i've made myself editor from both, but not sure how i now duplicate the overlay from my fb to my twitch
While you're "roleplaying" as your twitch click the 3 dots for the overlay you wanna copy and then choose duplicate.
@jaunty finch Did you set the correct usage for them to be redeemed?
Next one.
Would help if the bot was in your chat.
Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
Yeah. Think that was the issue.
thanks for the help of the commands. But the problem of not showing items in my store continues :/
You've got them set to be redeemed via chat. Not the website #helpdesk-twitch message
That's redeem from chat. Not website.
is already in this configuration
okkkk
now everything is right! Thanks a lot for the help. It was very quick and helpful. good night
❤️
im having trouble setting up stream store alerts. for some reason when it is redeemed half the alert is cut out on slobs. anyone else have this issue?
2 things.
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.
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

does anyone know how to tweet a link to their twitch live stream from OBS when they go live
2 ways.
There's the automatic way which has partial limits or the manual way from a custom dock.
like if i click "start streaming" it'll send a tweet as soon as the stream is live
Social media tab at the very bottom of the dashboard.
i just see StreamElements live support on the bottom of OBS
The tab on the left.
im using OBS 26.1.1 64 bit- windows
No.
It's on the website.
@near horizon It should be working again. Otherwise wait a little bit for it to wanna behave.
okay thank you :)
Hola. He cambiado mi nombre en Twitch, y desde entonces, no me reconoce ningún comando de Streamelents en el chat. Me reconoce todos los que tengo con Nightbot, pero ninguno de Streamelents. He cerrado y abierto sesión varias veces, pero nada. ¿por qué puede ser?. Gracias
does the ' Google Sheet To-Do List ' command also work with pastebin, because its not pasting anything for me in chat.
code in streamelements:
${customapi.https://pastebin.com/raw/bwUY7fT5?todo=$(queryencode $(1:))}
code in pastebin:
var todo = (request.parameter.todo || "").trim();
if (todo == '') {
return ContentService.createTextOutput('you need to give me something to do!');
}
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().appendRow([todo]);
return ContentService.createTextOutput('thanks! This will get done later (hopefully)');
}```
morning guys.. Is there a reason im missing here for why TTS is just refusing to work? Does it need to be on for the master variation (i.e Subscriber) for it to trigger on the variation?
hi guys... for some reason, none of my commands are working. i tried parting and rejoining the streamelements bot from the stream but nothing is working. is there something else that i could do or try? would really like some help on this one 🙂
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
i dont have the hamburger
i dont have activity feed in OBS.Live
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
okk i figured it out. thank you so much for the help. much appreciated 🙂

What browser are you trying this in?
firefox like always
Could you try in chrome please?

its like the servers are overwhelmed with traffic all the sudden
or the cloud or whatever xP
But then it would be a lot more busy in here :P
true
You are the only one reporting this issue
🤔
wait let me check if its my connection
nah its good on my side
I dident change anything 🤔
I tried logging out and in again but its the same
well then again its only if I load up the videos/media ive stored online
everything else works fine
Il just check in tomorrow and see if its better
eh I dident mean that in a rude way ofc xD
il just check if its better tomorrow :3
in incognito nothing is loading in from the cloud

excuse me please, people donated me but i forgot to save where the money should go and now there is standing that all tips are lost at 15 February and now the 16 February can I do something to get the tips anyway?
I've been trying to make this code work for ages now... at the point of giving up. it doesn't seem to understand what I want it to do.
$(customapi.https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbxG7v5CQVthjv_rueqOB3m51agsYWurA3qUJRiRFcI42rnOh7WZ/exec?input=$(queryencode $(1:))&user=$(sender))
by the way when i paste the link in my browser it does give me the right response, but its not pasting in chat? the code thats in Google Script is:
var input = (request.parameter.input || "").trim().toLowerCase();
if (input.includes("nothing")) {
return ContentService.createTextOutput('you need to give me something to do!');
}
else{
return ContentService.createTextOutput('thanks! This will get done later (hopefully)');
}
}```
btw I do get that the person needs to type "nothing" for it to get that..
excuse me please, people donated me but i forgot to save where the money should go and now there is standing that all tips are lost at 15 February and now the 16 February can I do something to get the tips anyway?
I deleted a few inappropriate donations in the sessiondata -> labels -> Recent tips. They are not in the list there anymore. Nevertheless they still show up in the total tips. Is there a way to delete them?

Hi guys, after that I change my twitch username the bot doesn't work, what can i do?
Is it normal Dashboard doenst show my followers - I have 180 but it says 0. Maybe it gives the followers during the stream?
@marble ferry 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).
This is the amount you got for this month
Look at the top bar ;)
Offcourse - Thnx again

HI I NEDD SOME HELP FOR CREATE MY OVERLAY IN STREAMELEMENTS FOR OBS PLEASE
sorry about capital leters
If you already have your own overlays you can add them to My Overlays> Create new Overlay
If you want to use some of the free themes from SE go to Themes gallery
@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

Anyone can help me to create a waiting queue with the chatbot that increases automatticaly when a specific command is used?
can i have some help
plz
is there any way i can chat with someone
on one on one
hiii, anyone know how to make refollows not show up on stream?
@finite raven There is a way but it's an all or none "blockage". You basically block ANY alerts from the username.

Im trying to put a custom overly webm file on stream elements. can you tell me how to do it.
Here > tipping settings tab > Tipping moderstion at bottom > enable custom filter and add their name. https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings
thanks!
in this customapi streamelements replies with $(sender) instead of the actual username of the user. I have the following code set in streamelements command:
$(customapi.https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbxG7v5CQVthjv_rueqOB3m51agsYWurA3qUJRiRFcI42rnOh7WZ/exec?input=$(queryencode $(1:))&user=$(sender))
this is the return value from Google Script:
return ContentService.createTextOutput("Hey ${sender}. Welcome to the stream! I hope you enjoy it.")
I thought the user=$(sender) in the streamelements command would replace this with the actual username??
excuse me please, people donated me but i forgot to save where the money should go and now there is standing that all tips are lost at 15 February and now the 16 February can I do something to get the tips anyway?

Hello. I've changed my name on Twitch, and since then, no Streamelents commands in chat have recognized me. I recognize all the ones I have with Nightbot, but none from Streamelents. I've logged out and logged in multiple times, but nothing. Does somebody knows why it could be?. Thanks
channel name? no links.
how do i change the stream name and game on twitch

Could you disable follower mode please?
Thank you. The problem is solved

Is there a way to add a current viewer count widget to my overlays?
Should be a widget I believe. Just click the + symbol in the editor and search for viewer. Should show you where it is.
yup, I'll give it a shot, thanks!
Ah, doesn't appear to be one for current view count. All good 🙂

hello I have a problem because when I put the overlay in obs it doesn't put the complete overlay only the half appears

its not letting me include xbox party audio on twitch when all my settings are okay and on twitch it lets me mute and unmute party chat option but not decrease or increase volume, it doesnt let my party members include their audio also
on xbox series x
use the xbox app
and stream on PC
0 idea on how that works, but if you're connected to your party via your controller it won't be heard
oh ok ok thank you so much!
it needs to go via your desktop audio and the xbox app allows you to chat with your party on your PC
no worries
We figured it out. It had a extra space when we copy n pasted it
thank u :)_
I'm trying to put animation on text like animation in and out but it's not doing the affect i pick do i need to do anything else?

make sure you're also editing the alert variations as they may override the one you're editing
its for the Alpha Rotating Feed to show my recent bits.followers and subs and i'm trying to put it slide in and out but it will not do that?
I think this is because it uses custom css
Hi, How do I set a cooldown as a Channel moderator in twitch chat? Is this correct? !command add !test -cd 120 this is a test! ?
first add the command and then edit it with !command options test -cd 120
You can add, remove and make changes to custom commands in chat with !command/!cmd flags:
!command add (commandname) (commandresponse) - allows you **to add **a new custom command
!command remove (commandname) - allows you to delete a custom command
!command edit (commandname) (commandresponse) - allows you to edit an existing custom command
!command show (commandname) - allows you to see the raw response of a command before variables are used
!command options (commandname) -(flag) - allows you to change settings for an existing custom command
!command alias basecommand - Shows the alias commands for !basecommand
!command alias add basecommand aliascommand1 aliascommand2 - Adds alias commands !aliascommand1 and !aliascommand2 for command !basecommand
!command alias remove basecommand aliascommand1 - Removes alias command !aliascommand1 from command !basecommand
Valid flags for !cmd 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: !cmd options twitter -usercd 60 -type reply -level 250

when I try to upload a custom .mp3file for my follower notification in my stream, it doesn't get added. It just says "file uploading..."
What browser are you trying it in?
?
We can't help you with streamlabs.
wtf
We're 2 different companies.
others helped me here too and didn't say anything about it being the wrong server
No idea but we can't help you if you're using streamlabs.
bruh
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.
@opal moon The !watchtime command is directly tied to the Loyalty system. The Loyalty system must be enabled for viewers' watchtime to count up.
To enable Loyalty, please go to the Loyalty section of your account: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Watchtime counts up every 10 minutes alongside Loyalty points, and only while the stream is live. Reruns will not be counted.
Please note that watchtime is not tracked by Twitch and there is no way to retroactively apply past watchtime to viewers.
then it comes up this but on my preferences it doesnt come up anything related and the other preferences are all ok but i just want to fix the situation w party chat then i will b ok
is there any way to overlay my stream chat onto my screen so I can read the chat without having to go into obs?
@clear galleon If you have one monitor and/or would like the chat overlay on the screen, please look at the link below.
Please note this is not a plugin for OBS and not maintained by SE.

thank you!
Hey
Can someone fix the topcat432 chat stats page?
How can I upload overlays to my obs?
@ashen rapids 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
Make a new source and select Browser and paste the link from streamlink there. @ashen rapids
did he recently change his username?
nope
My chatstats aren't working any advice? It just shows a 404 page: https://stats.streamelements.com/c/izbuddyiz
Also not sure if this is related but my chat bot also isn't working. I just had the bot part from my channel and had it rejoin but am not sure how to test to see if it works without going live again. Any advice would be super helpful thanks!
Can you add overlays on iPhone to twitch channel?
What do you mean by overlays from your iPhone @solemn meteor
What happened to the host alerts??? Someone hosted me and I didn't hear an alert
@ivory kettle "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."
anyone tell me how to disable trhe streamelemtnts bot

did you recently change your username?
I'm having a serious problem with streamelements where my alerts don't work on live, but when I do the test everything works, even appears in the obs. I didn't find anything about it while doing my research, if anyone knows and explains how it works for me I would be grateful 🙂
I believe I changed my name last year, but that was before I even connected stream elements to my account. Could that be the problem?
not sure if this is the right section, do you have a chat widget similar to sreamlabs? I want to migrate to stream elements but I don't see the twitch chat box as an option.
Thanks!
Thank you!
should be fine then, I'll need your account id

chat stats page is up 😄
bot seems to also be working so let us know if you need any further assistance
Thanks so much, I see the messages you sent as well as the stream elements test. I really appreciate it. 🎉
If you have a moment, one thing that I think I am not understanding is why my custom commands are not showing up. for example, I made !discord command but when I type that in the chat window its not posting the message an url I made. I have it set to everyone. Am I doing something wrong?
try this
@vagrant nymph 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
Incredible! Its all working now! You are the best! I followed you for being so helpful! Thanks so much again!

I feel stupid asking this but does streamelements hide personal info that paypal would share when tips are used? I was informed by a viewer that SE does not help hide personal info.
That's beyond what SE can do.
That's why we generally suggest upgrading to a business account as that does offer that "security".

You can disable media requests via the slider on the top left of this page https://streamelements.com/dashboard/mediarequest/general. As for the TTS, you can check if it is enabled in the overlay editor. Click your alertbox, go into the setting for Tip alert, and check the TTS settings tab.

it's pretty simple, you just create your giveaway on here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/giveaways and make your viewers enter it by typing !enter in chat, you can then close it and pick a winner
I think it’s working it’s moving slower than usual tho
Now it says becoming a streaming legend. Do I log in again?
Oh wow I clicked twitch and it took me to my stream elements page while in stream elements.
How do you start the giveaway drawing?
once you create the giveaway you will see this
you can close the giveaway and pick the winners on that page

how do I set an overlay
@steady brook 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
Thank you!!!!
how do i change the text to the overlay
how can I get BTTV emotes to show up on my stream?

I have updated my store, but the link to my store does not reflect all of the changes - only a few. Is this normal?
wdym? @vapid pulsar
Woah that was fast! 🙂 lol. I mean that the “Merch.streamelements.com” link shows my products that I’ve updated, but it does not show any other updates. Like name, pictures, etc.
@vapid pulsar have you try Hard refresh your browser? (ctrl+shift+r)
I have. The link also still has my old twitch name.
well about the "old username", each merch store URL is generated with the "current" username so we need to reset it in order to update the URLs
please provide your accountID

@vapid pulsar should i proceed?
To update the name?
reseting the store (once you upload the design again it will generate with your current username)
Will it delete all of my current designs?
Yes 😦
Hmm. Is there a way that I can manually do myself whenever I get ready to do that?
Or do I just come back here?
It's a staff only thing.
How come when i click "start stream" i dont see myself live on twitch?
Yes, please reset
done
@hardy bronze StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Thank you. Do I need to have any other pages reset as well?
Whenever I switch to a scene my streame element overlay does not pop up is there a way to fix that ?
that should be all
since all overlays are cloud based it will take some seconds to appear
Even when its been 30 minutes?
So normally when I start streaming it should say on discord that i'm streaming with that purple symbol under my name but it hasn't been doing that lately and i was wondering why? please help
Why isn't the StreamElements Leaderboards working? Like it isn't displaying any data.
Like, the Top Chatters leaderboard isn't working. No data is being outputted.
Hi - You may need to re-enable the 'Automatically Enable/Disable' option under 'Streamer Mode' in your Discord settings.
@crude bear 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).
Hi, my overlays aren't responding to real activity feed events, though they do work when I emulate those events in the browser. I've noticed that my activity feed is showing as empty in both OBS and the streamelements dashboard in the browser, and I think they might be related to the overlays not working. How can I make sure that these events are updating properly? Also, does the activity feed only update (assuming it's updating at all) while I'm live? I'd love to test this integration while I'm not live, and if emulation isn't a full representation of an end to end test, what can I do to test it while not live?
HOW DO I SAVE MY OVERLAY TO MY PC??????
@hollow tartan 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

@crisp topaz Everything should behave now. Previously missed things unfortunately were missed. New ones shouldn't be.
Great, thanks! I did see the test follow just happen so that's great. Was there something I did wrong or just some weird issue?
Just want to make sure if I modify things I won't break it in the future.
stuff on the backend go
sometimes.
Just come back if it seems something is amiss and we'll do it again.
hi guys
i changed my twitch usernae PRIOR to using streamelements. but i did the above instructions anyways. I finished #2 on said instructions, now this is for #3:
old username was radiantMemory
new username is AwakenedMemory
fixed
Can anyone help me close my account?
I keep trying to and I get the error "invalid user name"
try lowercase username
HI. i wanna ask if it is possible to bet against my viewers. so currently, the feature in the contest section is that the total prize pool goes divided to everyone.
I want it so that when we bet, the losing team loses all the points they bet, and the winning team doubles up in the points they bet.
Is that plausible? because most times my viewers already know i suck at something and they ALL bet on the lose. but they split very little points for correctly predicting.
You would have to bet against them as the streamer and put your points "into the pot"
Anyone know why I cant get a GIF file to be uploaded?
I’m getting issues with SE pay
@uneven geyser Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you.
@lament blade upload where?
I am trying to upload a GIF in StreamElements for my tipping background but for some reason, its not being added to the list of Images
Thank you
@lament blade try in incognito mode
my viewers keep trying to use the watchtime command and it keeps saying that they've been viewing for 0 secs, how can I fix it?
The !watchtime command is directly tied to the Loyalty system. The Loyalty system must be enabled for viewers' watchtime to count up.
To enable Loyalty, please go to the Loyalty section of your account: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Watchtime counts up every 10 minutes alongside Loyalty points, and only while the stream is live. Reruns will not be counted.
Please note that watchtime is not tracked by Twitch and there is no way to retroactively apply past watchtime to viewers.
Alright
my timers and commands stopped working tonight but loyalty points are still adding? i removed and re-added the bot already but didn't help?
@ornate heart 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
thanks!

Hi there, my SE Bot has stopped 'talking' in my chat. It'll do what the command says, but won't show up in chat
Buttons are being blocked, and the 'Supercharge Your Bot' won't close, either.
Hi, If i set OBS with overlay, allert in a pc, and i open OBS in another pc, with the same account, the settings remain?

Hello, is there a way to connect Stream Elements to my Twitter so that I can get it to auto tweet when i am going live on Twitch?
hey, how fast does a sponsorship take to come into paypal after compleetion?
Hello hello. Relatively new to game streaming here, quite seasoned in podcasting etc though. Simple question I hope. Just looking for probable causes/solutions to choppy stream playback via obs to twitch. I have 1Gb upload, broadcasting at a max bitrate of 8000kbps, 1080p, 60fps, barely even hitting my network, but not going higher for fans on lower connections. Ryzen 9 3950x and 2070 Super, system is not overloaded at any point by rendering or encoding as reported by any hardware monitor of choice whilst broadcasting. Ideas?
hey, stream cant hear my music but I can. The music video is showing on stream if that helps, I think its super low volume but still playing
Hello, good afternoon. I have a question that I would like to be able to solve. I tell you. I installed the stream elements obs and I already have more or less configured the oberlay the chst and stuff. The problem is that I don't know why it won't let me capture the screen, that is to say that those windows do not come out so that people can see what I'm playing.
I think 30 days after completion.

I'm trying to migrate fully from using anything from streamlabs but the only thing i cant figure out is enabling a chat widget option with transparent background for my just chatting scene. Does stream elements have this feature and Im just unaware of it?
In the overlay editor, the chat widget is under 'Stream tools' when you go to add a new widget. From there you can set the chat widget theme to Custom and set the background color to transparent.
Awesome! Ill try and check that out! I looked everyone online and couldnt find anything on it!
Hey!
Is there a way to give all viewers in chat points at the same time? When I use the 'all' command, does that mean everyone that follows or everyone that is currently active in chat?
Hi! This will give points to everyone that is in the chatter list when you use the command, generally meaning anyone whos currently logged in & watching the stream.
oh perfect, thanks!!
Np 
Sorry I have another question ><
Whenever I change scenes on obs, I get a massive emote-splosion of whatever emotes had just happened on the previous scene. What am I doing wrong? xD
Is there any approval process that a 16 year old, parental supervised Twitch streamer can go through to allow SE.Pay account?
Hi all, I’m wondering if you may be able to help. I withdrawn money from my SEPAY account. How long does it take for the deposit to hit my account or does it very?

Hey guys, I was just wondering if this is a common problem or not, but i recently started using stream elements for my alerts etc. and my follows work fine and they come up and they show in my activity, but i got a sub and nothing showed, it didnt say it ever happened in the stream elements activity feed, the alert didnt show.. I was just wondering if there is a way to fix it or if its a known issue or anything like that??
ciao, quando vado a mettere la mail sul collegamento di streamelements mi dice in alto a sinistra saving ma la spunta rimane spenta, sono sicuro al 100 % che la mail è giusta

hey, my gf is having some issues with the host button not showing for her? i tried helping her with enabling dark theme, thinking it would work, but it doesn't..
Ehy guys! I started playing Control today but I had a tons of problems (the same I had when I streamed Cyberpunk). Chat not reloading, so not showing me the latest messages, no follow/sub notifications on stream but there was just the sound. Even when I closed the game and switched overlay, it wasn't working! For example, kappagen wasn't working and the latest follow, sub, donation not showing, not even the chat box!
how do i edit stream title
i need help adding alerts from the overlay i just bought from own3d
@slim cargo Stream information can be set through your dashboard on Twitch. http://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
@half dawn We've released our new Overlay Editor revamp. You can check out the changes and how to work with it here: https://youtu.be/X5VzXjqAsjk
Check out our blog post as well: https://blog.streamelements.com/streamelements-overlay-editor-just-got-even-better-c22cb5b4853e
Are you referring to the host button that appears under a stream on Twitch? IIRC that is a feature of the BetterTTV Chrome extension. To host someone without the extension, you can type /host username in your Twitch chat.
ah, I don't have BetterTTV installed though, and I see it just fine.. which it why it's weird
and yes, I'm talking about the host button under the streams 🙂 I use Firefox though and she's using Chrome.. I'll have to ask her to try Firefox to see if that would fix it
Everything was fine with Streamelements until recently, now the modules just dont work anymore
people cant use !roulette !8ball !points
anything like that, cane someone help?
did you change your name on twitch?
yes
@knotty mango If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:

How long does it normally take to receive SE. Sponshorship payout?

oh my... well cheers mate
I dont see anything by the name of bot settings
ok so i keep getting this after the medi starts to play anything i am doing wrong " NO ACTIVE WIDGETS WERE DETECTED FOR MEDIA REQUEST" yes there is a widget for the thing to use
@knotty mango 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
I did what that told me and its still not wroking
how do i get the overlay up?
@fast kindle 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
nvm I got it
hey ^^ can me help anyone?
can i set the custom bot from here and my account by a friend into stream?
twitch **
@brave ferry Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live.
You can follow this video guide to set it up: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.
thanks. but the thing is, i use the custom bot, another over elements to... only in obslive custom bot accept? or anytime account change in Obs?
better say. how can i handle 2diff. bots accounts, in 2 different channels from here?
if you're logged into your twitch account on OBS you will be able to add your stream information as a docked window
I'm trying to stream but keep getting error 4000. I streamed 6 days ago with no problems. The only device I can watch the stream on is the twitch app on my phone and I only hear audio. I disconnected and reconnected the stream key. Audio and graphics are up to date.
can you reformulate your question? I don't understand 😦
Isn't that the twitch error message you see when trying to watch a stream?
Only audio is being sent to twitch.
That usually happens when the stream has wrong (or too high) settings, but that's a stretch
if im not mistaken.
I've had the same settings for months with no issues. If I can post images of my settings I'll do that.
Twitch error 4000 indicates that the video you are trying to watch is either unavailable or your browser does not support the respective video format.30 Oct 2020
^ which indicates a wrong format being sent/received by twitch
The reasons why or how to fix it vary
but it's mostly client (player) side.
@drowsy egret so i want to add my twitch acc "xyz" with "xyz" custom bot .. i do this all okay. now I would like to integrate another custombot "123" into channel "123" from here, my question is how is this possible without always having to log out and in between the acc? because I need this code from my colleague every time.
I've read that. Those didn't help me. About to run errands. I'll try stuff later.
Yeah there's no real: "this is the probable cause"-solution.
I did set up a hook key for a different game for recordings. Would that be an issue?
@drowsy egret do u have any idea?
hey i'm trying to add a follower goal but it isn't displaying my current follower count how would i fix this
I figured it out. I forgot to change color format back after I was done recording something.
🙂
See, wrong settings 😉
I usually get it when i overshoot 6000kbps by a lot due to CFR 😛
have you tried having those accounts in different OBS profiles?
hi gibt es einen deutschen suport?
#🇩🇪︱deutsch
I also realized I posted in wrong channel.
ok thx
whats the purpose here anyways? are these not your channels?
look 420cunox is my acc. 420 + 420 custom bot over live work no problem...
how can i integrate from here subdwellersbot in subdwellers
but dont want anytime log change, is it anyway to manage?
I don't think so, you can keep separate stream accounts on separate profiles but you will always have to relog your bot
bog relog no problem
close the main acc dont work because the other country code
bot log*
can u say me or show a link maybe? really killer if this would work anywise
connect your obs to one account, then create a new profile an connect the second account
hi i am having problem creating a custom death counter i can't reset the numbers of death of a command no matter how much i try make the command different
👍
so news.... also
the problem i was having was i was using the variables examples <> instead of just typing the texts
😄
yo any staffs?
how can I help?
can you maybe unban someone from my songrequest
post your account id and i'll look into it
anyone able to help with a number issue while i'm trying to display followers
where can i find my account id
or do u mean this
https://i.imgur.com/rOenqJj.png
yes, sorry for not clarifying
can you copy/paste it here?
Hi, what number are you trying to display/which widget are you having issues with?
dm me the user you want unbanned
hey i'm trying to set a follower goal and it's not using the correct number and even when i look at all time followers it shows an incorrect number
I assume it's only counting the twitch follows i'ev gotten since i started using elements but i don't know how to change that
@drowsy egret RECOMMAND AS TOP USER/SUPPORT/MEMBER here. cool dude/girl idk, thanks!!!
top. i mean i got my answer :D not these i want but not our problem. :) thanks!!!
For the goal - you can modify the progress by going into Session Data in the top right of the overlay editor under the Goals tab to reflect your total follower count. As for the 'all-time' followers - I would double check that you're looking at the Total followers widget, not the Follower Count. Follower count is tied to a specific time period, Total followers should reflect how many followers your channel has.
thanks i'll give it a look
it worked thanks so much
one other quick question how do i set up a shout out command
Entering this in your chat would create a basic shoutout command - !command add !shoutout Check out ${1} at https://twitch.tv/${channel ${1}} !
You can learn more about the types of variables you can include in commands here - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/variables
thank you
@teal trout JW I am using the Free overlay for my stream, I got a donation but it didnt display it, it will only display Followers.
Are you using StreamElements to accept tips?
Hey, I'm changing the video on my new Overlay but when I test it for some reason shows the old video and not the new one. Can someone help, please? (I already Saved)
@teal trout yes, do I need to redo mine?
check alert variations, they might be overriding the main one
how do I add game capture to an overlay
To clarify - does the tip show up in your activity feed on StreamElements, it's just not playing the alert on the overlay?
Yes
Hello
it is obs
Anyone have free, good overlay?
!!!!!!+
click the + sign on sources and select game capture
@steady brook your overlay should be on top of your game capture source
I say anyone have own free?
can someone give me the command !Slots help if I enter that I lose 99% of the time. Can you change that?
Help me*
In the overlay editor, click on the alertbox and verify that Tip alert is toggled on. If it is, take a look at the settings- there could be a minimum amount set for the alert to show
StreamElements has a bunch of cool overlays available for free - https://streamelements.com/features/superthemes
@teal trout got it Thanks! It was randomly turned off
you can customize that on your dashboard under bot modules (https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-modules)
anyone having trouble with the store redemptions?
Heya, was wondering if there was a way I can view a list of only the people who have gifted subs in my channel please
Thx @drowsy egret got it
I don't know if there's a different way but you can use the leaderboards extension to see this
yeh I tried that but this only gives top 50, I am looking for all time - but thanks
I'm trying to use the audios on the overlay, but none are playing
I suggest you reach out directly to twitch, they might be able to provide that
Hi - this looks like a Tip Goal. You can add this in the overlay editor under Labels -> Tips -> Goals -> Tip Goal
hey is it possivle to change the followage custom? cant find anything the variable for follow
you would have to use a custom api for that
When i create an alert overlay on streamelements and put it on one of my scenes it shows but when I copy and paste it into the other scenes it doesn't show up...
hello my host alert is not showing and I've got it from 0 people host... raid shows correctly, not show on the chat and not on the stream alert 😦
why?
@vagrant ocean "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."
@drowsy egret That was the problem yeah, not changing the alert variations. But now even changing the Variations settings it doesn't show the new version on Preview.
uhm, you don't have to copy/paste them, you can add a browser source and it will show up as existing so you select that one

not for me, have you tried relogging?
For some reason the font on my obs is different from streamelements preview, someone know how to fix?
How do you change streamelements bot name?
Through OBS.Live - here's a guide https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017413239-Creating-a-Custom-Bot-name-with-OBS-Live-
When i go to streamelements > bot & tipping settings Im stuck at this window
@teal trout
Have you tried clicking 'Do it later' in the top right?
options are Leave or Continue, leave exits out and continue doesnt do anything
Hmm, I've gotten stuck in this before too - try relogging
@elfin berry StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
anyone?
is the alert itself playing? Like an image?
@foggy heart That's the thing, when I open the preview tab, it doesn't play anything, but on the OBS itself plays,
So it plays in OBS. It doesn't play in the preview tab, but does it play in the overlay tab when you emulate?
Hello I need some help on making a custom command ? where would i go fo that?
You can check out some stuff here: https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000373852-Chat-Commands-
@foggy heart when I emulate no
Nothing changed
nevermind!
@elfin berry press the back button
I see it now in my activity feed!
ah nice
Thankk you
Hello! I am having trouble starting my stream. Every time i click "start stream" on OBS it says "starting the output failed"
So the preview will have to be of the saved overlay, I don't believe it updates as you make changes. Also, if it works in OBS you should be seeing something in the overlay editor.
ive seen all of the available items but im trying to create a command in which a command is ran then automatically gives loyalty points. any idea on what that would look like with the variables?
that's the thing, on the editor or preview, it doesnt play the audio
Hi, one thing you can try is going into Settings -> Output and changing the encoder to x264 if it's not already
So if the audio isn't playing on the editor in a web browser, is it possible that the site is muted?
Thank you! That worked!! @teal trout
Np. This likely means that your graphics card drivers are out of date, or otherwise don't support GPU encoding. 
here fly questions in :D rlly guys oh .. support next here how start i the programm? :D
is there a way to make a check in command that would grant the user loyalty points?
you can use the ! addpoints command to give a user points
right, i get that, but is there a way to make a command that would almost be automated after a specific command is ran... Lets say someone comes in and types in !checkin and that command would grant them 50 loyalty points
Hi There. I've copied the SE URL as an overlay Web element in OBS, but I can't get the animation to play/work. I tried simulated, and live.
I think you could make that command, but there isn't a native way to do it. Might be worth checking out the command share channel
Have you saved the overlay before trying to emulate it? And do you have the overlay showing up over the other captures?
which channel is that? @foggy heart
I have tried both, yes
nvm
I think I have a way, let me try it out
Hey all. I'm having a weird issue where if I have obs studio open, streamelements bot will not work. Here is a video of it happening. https://streamable.com/09yt14
I would try removing the overlay and re-adding it. Also, do you not hear sound as well as not see the alert when you emulate it through OBS?
@kindred mural 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
Legendary Support lives up to the name. Thanks! ❤️
@lament blade false alarm, my idea didn't work 
Hi y'all, I have a problem with one of the alert layers. Cheer alert doesn't save any changes and stays with default sound and animation. Can you guys tell me what should I do with it?
Check you variation settings, sometimes these can override what you have set to the defaults.
Hello, I configured the overlays on the stream elements website, copied the link, and inside the obs opened as a browser with the right link, but for some reason it's not showing up on live, can someone help me?
is this for alerts?
yep
It was really that simple?! Thanks a million! 
I'm having issues uploading .webm files into Streamelements as an alert video. It keeps saying that it's an unsupported file format. Any help on what I could try?
I don't see or hear anything, no. I will try to remove and readd though
Sure thing. If you're still having issues it might help to see a screenshot of your overlay settings
maybe someone at #dev-chat has an idea on how it could be done
somebody help me, please? I've tried everything
Hey Folks - Having some issues with Store Redemptions not coming through as alerts, the sound works, I have the correct widget overlay set up and the test one works, but the real one doesn't!
Have you had success with other formats? webm should be supported, but the file itself might just have an issue. It may also be worth testing another webm to see if that works.
I have tried rendering the video as a .mp4 and it uploaded fine but it doesn't have the transparent background as .webm would. I've tried rendering it multiple different times, but I can try and render it through Adobe media encoder rather than through premiere and see what happens
That might be worth a try! I just tried a webm and it worked fine for me, so the format itself should't be the issue
Anyone else having problems with the Streamelements bot? My bot kept timing out an extension bot for posting a link so I did "!bot mute" and now I can't "!bot unmute" none of the commands are working
hi
@calm zenith check the unmute button on the dashboard
Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
THANKS @abstract hemlock
my streamelements bot stopped working when i opened my last live, what should i do to make it work again?
@native kestrel Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
^^^ @native kestrel same. it's still not working. Does it take some time? @abstract hemlock I did part channel and rejoined
@foggy heart I found the issue (you may want to add this to your list of things to ask people to double check). The issue was Safari not allowing StreamElements to recognize .webm files. The moment I switched to Chrome, the files were no longer grayed out and uploaded immediately
Which transmission software should I use, aiming that my pc does not support OBS?
Good to know! We do recommend that everyone use chrome as other browsers don't work well with the editor.
Okay I changed the custom bot to my username and then back to streamelements and that seemed to fix it
I'm having an issue with my alert sounds. I use Elgato Wavelink to split my audio, and I hear the alerts perfectly clear in my headphones (at about 50% master volume so the Youtube music isnt too loud in my ears) and the stream sound is barely audible when I'm live and on VODs (master volume at 100%). I have tried to boost the volume on the alerts to 90% and it hasn't changed anything. Been trying to figure out a solution for a while, any help?
when i try to add my chat to the layers of my transmission it just doesn’t appear, it’s a completely black screen. Why does this happen and what should I do to resolve it?
anoymore ideas
anyone available to teach an old dog? want to make sure i know what im doing before o start streaming
@halcyon remnant New to StreamElements?
Check out our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/streamelements/videos
with tutorial videos from setting up the basics, to in-depth details on how to use our product.
New to OBS? Here is a 4 step quick start guide
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Quickstart
Want to learn even more? Here is an in-depth overview
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Overview
Are you adjusting the audio through OBS or through the overlay editor? That might be why in stream it's not getting any louder.
When you add it, it might just be blank if there's no chat. When you start chatting, you should see things populate. Also, you'll want to make sure that your overlays are the size/resolution you want them to be
can anyone help me its saying i am live but i go to twitch and it is not streaming how do i fix?
you'll want to make sure you have your streaming software (like OBS) properly connected with Twitch
it is
anyother ideas for the chat command giving loyalty points?
Through the overlay editor. When I select “Control audio via OBS” it duplicates my alerts
I’ll try that option and see if it works differently than last time. Let you know if it’s still giving me issues on my stream tonight.
@fierce forge 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.

hello everyone. I'm trying to stream using OBS NDI but I'm losing a lot of FPS in game could anyone help please? thank you
I just need someone to walk me through all this, not a bunch of 30 second videos im an automated respomse plz and ty
Still having issues, here are screenshots:
oh thanks, but even with chat messages, they don't appear
I checked, it wasnt muted
what exactly do you need to know?
if you have an nvidia card try streaming with the NVENC encoder
Can you share your overlay settings in the editor?
Can you share a screenshot of your overlay settings?
OK so I got things to show up, but the scale is all wack... I must be doing something wrong:
everything. i dont even know how to set things up. i do better with 1 on 1 instruction
So the actual settings within the overlay, like what sound and image you have set to play when triggered
oh sure
also, it looks totally fins on the test page
it will depend on what you need, if you ask a specific question we might be able to help
how about how to set all this up for a stream
we can't guide you through everything there is to know, there are a bunch of guides that can help you setup your stream but we can help you setup StreamElements tools if you are having issues with any of them
So I see the resolution is set to 1440, and it may need to be set to 1080 to scale right if it looks weird. Or at least make sure it's the same resolution on SE and OBS
So I did get the animation to finally show up, but it looks like my resolution is off somewhere,,,
i dont know how to do any of this and a bunch of 30 second vidros om you tube are no help
ok cool I'll mess with the resolution, thanks so much for your continued help, I want you to know that I GREATLY appreciate it and hope you have an amazing night. 🙂 I'll let you know when I finally get this figured out.
Hola no me funciona sidewide chat, que puedo haces? HELP!
No problem, hopefully the resolution will fix things up!
#🇪🇸︱español and I'll help
so no help from yhe helpdesk then?
So it's DEFINITELY acting super weird, and it's not a 1:1 even when the resolution matches, but atleast I can get it working and set my screen boundries with images lol. I can work with this even if it isn't smooth.
I would definitely try making a new overlay at 1080p, and adding it to OBS at 1080p and see if that changes anything.
as I said, if you have a specific question about SE tools we can help but we can't give you a full guide on how to setup your stream
well no one will even tell me how to set up a dang overlayh.
like i said i dont know what im doing so I come to the helpdesk fort HELP
overlays are created using our overlay editor (https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays), once you created it you can copy the URL and add it as a browser source in OBS
this might as well be foreign language, i dont understand. I asked for someone to teach me. how hard is that?
follow this quick start guide and get back to me after that https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Quickstart
Hello. How can I reduce FPS drop in game while using OBS NDI? My gaming pc is CPU i7-9750H AND GPU GTX 1660Ti
And my streaming pc CUP i7 3537U and GPU GeForce GT 740M
Thank you

How to change the ''names'' like the YouTube Channel
@violet wigeon click on the label that you want to change and then click on "Settings"
how do i add a dang overlay to obs
@halcyon remnant 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
i cant figure this out, bout ready to give up. I cant do this by reading a bunch of stuff cause i havew no way to make sense of it
is there any support for linux?
so i made overlays and stuff for my streams i just dont know how to add it to obs stuido
oh wait nvm i see a video
@crystal bluff 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
there's no OBS.Live support for linux but you can add SE overlays to regular OBS
@drowsy egret U asked me the other day if the loyalty points were active bcs i was having issues with the store. yes it's active, but new items added are still having issues being redeemed

also why the f do i not have dark mode ? XD
👀
@drowsy egret Can you help me out with something?
sure, ask away
Can I add a bot timer while beeing a mod? Or only the channel owner can add it?
If you are a supervisor/mod on the website then you can add a timer. I don't think you can add them via chat; need to be added on the website.
my twitch account is connected to OBS but when i "go live" on obs it does nothing with my twitch account
Oh ok, thank you ^^
note that there's a streamelements login and an OBS login, check settings > stream
oh jeez im such a noob thank you

Is there a way I can fix my watchtime command to stop saying "0 seconds"?
The !watchtime command is directly tied to the Loyalty system. The Loyalty system must be enabled for viewers' watchtime to count up.
To enable Loyalty, please go to the Loyalty section of your account: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
Watchtime counts up every 10 minutes alongside Loyalty points, and only while the stream is live. Reruns will not be counted.
Please note that watchtime is not tracked by Twitch and there is no way to retroactively apply past watchtime to viewers.
Is there a way to sync alert box across different Streamelement overlays?
If they're triggered by the same requirements they automatically are. Not sure what you mean by that though.
@lament blade Should be good now.
Good evening everyone.
I've been trying to 'whitelist' the pretzel rocks on the SE bot but it's not working. Thing is pretzel always change part of the link (since music changes). the fixed part is https://prtz.io/
Does anyone know how to do it? Thx in advance ❤️
Could you share where the issue happens?
the bot simply times out the pretzel user since it doesn't understand the link as white listed
Put the link here under the whitelist tab for link protection https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-spam-filters
Otherwise just make it mod.
yeah, ty sudo, i know... maybe i didn't express my problem good enough, sry
let me find some links
could it be that you're on bandwidth test mode?
example of links
Hi guys, I have a question, I recently became an affiliate of twitch and I have my points from the twitch channel, but before (when I was not an affiliate) I had my loyalty points from streamelements, is there any way to link the points of streamlabs with twitch?
so, the only part that repeats on the links are 'https://prtz.io/ '
The two point systems do not have any integration.
My question - relates to Alert Box : Raid & Host Alert . While doing an emulation it works correctly ; image , name & number . Now while i am live the name section doesnt work but it literally says {name} has raided with X people and/or {name} has hosted for X people .
"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."
okay I understand.
How do I get my followers to look at the store of my streamelements loyalty points so that they can redeem something, they can only do it through commands in the chat?
When you create the items for the store you need to choose the option to redeem via website.
Then the !items command can link the page for it.
Both Host and Raid is set to Minimum Amount 1. Additionally i had reset the alert message but the issue still remains
Are they showing in your activity feed?
yes it does show in my activity feed but it is the same literal message of {name} has raided/hosted with 7 people (for example) . Instead of John Doe has raided/hosted with 7 people
my apologies if i was not clear with the issue at hand
It was. I'm just a little
atm
{name} {amount} should be the 2 points that show in the alert message.
in which {name} should show the name of the raider for example John Doe.
but and this is the kicker here; {name} is exactly what is shown followed
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.
What's an example of an overlay with the issue? Just the overlay name.
Had staff take a looks and both the testing in the editor and replaying from the activity feed both properly return what it should show. Got an example of when it happened last?
I'm trying to Connect my PayPal but every time it's show me (Tipping Setup 50% ) so I leave it for a day but nothing change
is there something I need to do ?
Click o the link field and then on the complete button
hello. does anyone else get a message saying ‘response message’ in chat after a timer command goes of? if so how do you fix that.
@frosty lintel Click the triangle at the end of all timers and find the one that has the extra thing saying that.
Here is an example. part circled in red is a bit off. Overlay animation seems to work . unable to find a vid that does the issue though

I thought you mean alertbox.
Not chat alerts.
@lament blade Correct usage is {user}.
alright and this will be under the advanced setting of host alert - Alert message correct?
It actually tells you the usable variables but yes.
What option are you referring to?
idk what wedges, its widget
My overlays -> edit on the overlay you want to add the media request widget -> follow the above screenshot
Ok
- My overlays -> edit on the overlay you want to add the media request widget -> follow the above screenshot
- then follow this bot command
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
changed from {name} to {user} . When i did an emulation it is just " is hosting/raiding with X people"
You either play music from Spotify, Winamp, Google Music, iTunes, Youtube or Media Request
name is valid for the alertbox. user is for the chat alerts.
OBS will pick up all sounds from the PC and paly it on stream.
@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
if you just listen to the music while you are playing it will play on stream.
alright. many thanks.
correct. OBS is picking up the audio from your machine.
if you want to have viewer requests from youTube then you want to set up the Media Share. If you just want to play your music... you just play it.
oh wait just to be absolutely sure; by placing {user} in alert message section of raid/host SE Bot will show the correct text in chat and at the same time the overlay animation text will show the same exact thing ?
oh thanks. i didnt realize i accidentally added it.
@lament blade Assuming {name} is set in the alert box message yes.
Explain in super details all your steps, please @lament blade
every single one of them
ok. so it sounds like in my alert box message i should have both {name} and {user} ?
you don't have this option in your widget editor?
^ see image above
are you using Twitch?
what video are you watching?
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.
alright. then where in SE do i set the bot to display the correct message in chat
@lament blade 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 again. you have been of great helped.
where in the video are you? timestamp?
K's gonna fix it. Probably the video in the title of this channel
They're talking of a video that used the old editor.
You see how long this account ID is?
paste this into the chat
thats an invalid ID or its missing a letter or two
Ok, i will try ID 000000000000000000
The way you said "try zeros" implies literally to try 0000000
seriously…
And rule break 🙂
@frosty lintel yes, seriously 😐
I'm sorry, but if we are giving clear instructions on how OBS works and how to setup the media request widget on an overlay
Hey
and they are being stubborn, the issue is not with us
SE.pay requires a login, due to requirement of an email
Ok then I'll just disable it
Alright second question haha sorry: how do i disable SE Pay
^ so then I would like to just have Paypal then
well you do have the option for the login requirement
so anyone trying to tip via paypal will have to login
Well I don't have it by default because of the SE pay
but this option, as mentioned, does not affect SE.Pay
