alerts not working and website is barely loading
yeah
Can someone help me set up a custom bot in place of stream elements?
Can’t find any tutorials
Same, doing my bday stream and it disconnected me from twitch, i see no activity feed either, no alerts, no music
@cold leaf 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.

well SE is built using Twitch's API's so twitch breaks something it tends to break SE aswell
also do not get log in on the website of streamelements
Is the issue affecting anyone else's tipping page? as that is what is mainly broken for mine, other than that, I cant login
No one can login its likely a API call issue and there fixing it.
okay good i just joined to ask if anyone else was having an issue
yep
😄
same here
Why plz help me 💔
For the custom bot name, who do I need to give my Twitch username to if I prefer to use groundcontrol?
@tawny dock There fixing the issue now your not the only one experiancing an outage
say it here (no links)
TheLimeRunner - just like discord.
Speak now or forever hold your peace 😄
💔🥲 im stream now
^ lmfao wrong channel
i was going to throw my whole pc away until i came in here and found out there are issues lmfao
i am having the same thing @tawny dock
I use a different account for my bot though.

@true remnant 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.
if you already have to dock, then go to view, docks, and check it. if you don't have it as a dock then go to view, dock, custom dock, and put in the Activity Feed Popout URL. If you have OBS.Live then go to StreamElements, activity feed :)
Hello, my activity feed currently isnt showing up in obslive and keeps wanting me to login, but does nothing when i try to login
So do i just give it time and my alerts will work again? Do i need to do something other than refresh the webpage?
@glacial jay 
@nimble dune Rad, thanks for reporting! Youdabes
no activity feed ...
@lament blade should be back up soon
ok @wary halo
would reseting my session in activity help?
no
kk ill just wait
same @winter pine
Check again, my stuff all loaded again just now 😄
it is working
It's slowly working. Activity feed works, alert box does not.
oh okay thank
i was having the same issue but now my custom widgets aren't working
s
I recently noticed my activity feed in OBS just says you have no stream activity anyone else having this problem?
Logout and log back in... I just did that and it's working. Alert box still doesn't work though.
yeah I tried that already unfortunately no luck
Oh wait, I initially just logged out of twitch through OBS settings which didnt do anything, but I specifically logged out of stream elements tab in OBS and that fixed it
Thanks for the help hopefully the alret boxes get fixed soon as well.
do you have to have a chatbot for Song request to work ? I set everything up in stream elements including the viewer request but the only thing that happens is the queue keep building without playing
It wouldn't let me log into Stream Elements OBS. I"m having lots of problems! But the activity feed is kind of working?
alerts not working why ?
Because the site was down, it's getting back up now so should be working soon again
ok ty
Thanks so much, my alerts are also down so appreciate the info!

Alerts fixed for me, fixed itself.
now i have in my Actifity Feed the homepage.. wtf
@echo shell StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Came for the alerts problem as well. Glad it wasn't just me. Thanks everyone 😄
Anyone else having bitrate issues all the sudden when you try to stream even tho your internet connection is fine?
I was getting authentication errors from the api. They seem to be resolved now. Try reloading your overlays.
i actually lost both chat and activity feed. how i can get them back?
i cannot get them back whatever i do
now i have in my Actifity Feed the homepage as well
^ same
@winter pine StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Will do! Thanks!
Everything works except for a counter I have on an overlay and my alert box.
@woeful juniper Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page
thx
are they alert box still not working i cant not get mine to emulate ?
works fine now. Thnx
Thank you~
Anyone got a stream playlist with no copy right so I don’t get audio cuts in vods would be much appreciated
@wary halo is there a way for me to rename the bot using the website because I use light stream to stream on Twitch and I was trying to figure it out on there as I saw the button that said add new bot user
StreamBeats on Spotify or Youtube
Only OBS.Live or Ground Control
@eternal wyvern Our Dashboard and Overlay Editor are Chromium Optimized. We strongly recommend using Chrome. Opera GX and the new Microsoft Edge Chromium might work closest to Chrome as its also Chromium built. Firefox also works, but some things might look a bit different or not work. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer with our Dashboard as it does not support functions.
If the website doesn’t work on chrome, be sure none of your plugins is blocking our website or clear your cookies. You can try if the website works in an incognito tab.
Okay RIP
thank u SE.support it was all working before it went down and not the alerts will not play anymore
Hey, so for some reason my alerts have stopped working. All my other overlay stuff is fine. Just alerts are broken. I cant even get them to emulate on the website.
try Stream beats @worldly light
@worldly light NCS is good too
The alerts editor is still not fully working so alerts are not working'
How do i set up donations?
@worldly light well what the heck why did they break it lol
I don't know things happen ig just time for me to learn Photoshop and try to create scenes fml
Overlays arent to bad its the alerts and stuff I rely on them for. Kappa and that sort of stuff
Is it just me or are the overlays not working?
I have zero basic skills with making scenes and I dont want to pay a pretty penny either
Hey everybody. I'm new to the whole overlay party. Is there anybody who can possibly DM me and help me set mine up? I'm all kinds of confused.

Hello everyone! Unfortunately, my alerts aren't appearing or showing up at all. If anyone is able to help with this situation. It would be greatly appreciated!
The site was down and is getting back up, just need to wait a little bit for it to catch up
@wary halo Really

Sweet! Thank you for letting me know


Thank you SO much @wary halo you saved me
Youre the best

Alguem pode me ajudar?
hi! i recently starting using the bot and I was testing it out and suddenly the bot wasn't working or showing at all. I double checked to see if it was on and it was. I looked online but it led me here :) btw i use regular obs

now my alerts and widgets arent working
seems to be working fine 😛
is there anything I can do to fix it? It's still not working for me
it just came through @wary halo
nvm and thank u!
Media request keeps saying there is no widgets for it, but there is a widget
Hello, I've been using an alertbox in my overlay for a while which worked fine friday, but now It's broken? I can't emulate alerts on the website either. Tried firefox, chrome, no extensions, rebooted..
Alerts just wont work 🤔
Still the aftermath from the outage the site just had, should be back up soon
ah ok, thank you very much
omg ty will try
is this also the reason why media request widget is not working
I assume so yes
Alerts are still down 😦
Mine are too - Big sad
I just got 5 different 100$ donos without alerts haha
But it s ok
We still love you guys
Hope tgis gets fixed
lmao flex
hey guys ive got a big issue
Whats up dog?
Is there a way for me to get notifications
The website went down and they are fixing everything
ahh
even though i don't use a capture card to stream?
Likely from the outage the site just had. Alerts are currently down as well.
@worldly light thanks homie
Goldbo3 Do you stream from Xbox or Playstation?
xbox
so its not me its just stream elements
i was testing my alerts and they just wont work
@tacit 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
You would have to check youtube on that one but I do believe there is a app in the micrrosoft store on xbox for that now.
anyone know the status of stream elements?
Likely from the outage the site just had. They're working on it.
thanks
What if i dont want an overlay too?
like just a notification in chat coukld be fine]
It's all in the blog in the link
You can get a bot for that
What type of bot is that?
Bots can announce that type of stuff in chat
StreamElements bot
I just want for it to tell me that someone followed in chat or subscribed
Stream Elements bot can customize all that for what you want
chat alerts module there ^^
thanks
^^
I cant tell if its the website crash or if my alerts are still broken
Love ongoing issues
someone lmk when alerts go back up I cant tell mine being weird
Yeah my alert box is being weird too. Gifted subs worked but bits did not.
i cant even emulate alerts anymore 😄
came here to ask the same question about alerts!
A few of mine came through then shut off again haha. Progress!
my activity feed isn't even showing my latest follower though so it's like twitch and streamelements aren't properly connected
The site went down a little bit ago which is likely causing the issues. They're coming back slowly 😄
everything for me is fully back alerts aswell
same
how do i verify myself on paypal with a business account because it says i need to show proof of receipt from my supplier
hi,
is it possible to "reset" the tips? I wanted to start a new tip goal but it does not start at 0€ but at the amount i total got as tips until now....
You need to say that you are a content creator and that they donation is a tip for your content
That bullshit is also the reason I do not use paypal for tipping
Hi I'm looking for help on how to set up a shout out command
So, I just fixed my alerts, But for my bits alert, it keeps showing up the dancing shark even after I've edited the overlay through variation settings, can anyone maybe help me out?
${1} is awesome and deserves a follow. Check them out at https://twitch.tv/${channel ${1}} where they were last seen playing ${game ${1}}
@waxen talon this is the command $(touser) is AMAZING and deserves a follow, you can go check out their channel at Twitch.tv/$(touser) where they were last seen playing ${game ${1}}!, thats what I use
Do I put that under add command?
Yes, name the command !so
Thank you yall
yep
@charred jasper 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.
Okay so i just downloaded this and it wants me to add paypal information. The problem i have with that is paypal requires me to use my real name. When people superchat or subscribe to my twitch will they be able to see my real name?
yes unless you make it a business account
so if i make it a buisness acount then i can use like a fake name? got it!
thank you
would they be able to see my adress then?
no
Hold on, I'm confused, what does the bot want me to do?
okay! cus i know it says i have to link my adress. thank you so much
give your account ID, and the name of the overlay for the alertbox please 🙂
If your under 18 you cant even setup business account
i am 23 lol
Getting a 404 error for the stats page. Channel name is kururingames and hasn't been changed. Account id is 604997052a58749ac7de6f0e.
Do I share it here @wary halo ?
yes
Account ID: 5f8473cbd98d85147e7fbc52 Name: Alert Box Ovrelay
reported it, they will look in to it soon 🙂
@wary halo thanks man
you have the custom CSS enabled, then it will always play the shark
turn the custom CSS off and it will be gone

This one? Thank you
so i am moderator for a streamer, and i am currently setting up her a watchtime command. the thing is the watchtime refreshes just every 10 mins so everybody that uses the commands doesnt see specific times they see like having a watchtime of 10, 20, 30, ... mins
@viscid pebble I just create another account with FB and It's working perfect, but I can't link my Twitch account, It says "CHANNEL IS ALREADY CLAIMED"
There's any way to Unclaim and claim again but in the new account?
This is the Account ID from the new FB Account that is working : 604feb6ab2c0be3342e30616
why is watch time command broken
if i were to change my business name on twitch is that what shows when people see on paypal
I solved deleting the old account of streamelements and claiming from the new my twitch channel.
Hope this works for more people.
Thank you so much for your help.
@static depot 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 no way that the watchtime counts up atleast every minute, cause otherwise its kinda strange that everybody only have watchtimes of x multiplied with 10 mins

Hey all, great to be here. Curious, any way we can get the SE chat bot to respond to events? Specifically referring to bans/timeouts. This seems like something that might be fairly easily initiated, but I am no programmer 🙂
I am looking for a way to auto message/type in chat a quick response guiding someone to a specific channel in my discord if they wish to seek clarification on a particular moderator's actions

My streamelements Chat stats is missing from the widget in my panels since my namechange, I changed it from Niitzz to Nitz_exe on Twitch. Please help me! I've already parted the bot and returned it but no solution yet.
Is there a glitch on the online store? it shows that an object keeps loading.
I can't figure out how to capture my screen while streaming. I know that's supposed to be basic, but the initial startup didn't show me how to.
Has anyone else not been able to use their chat commands lately?
@upbeat cairn 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
Thank you for the quick response, I'll go give it a try now
Hey, my streamelements and my leaderboard is not updating since i changed my name on Twitch. Not updating Chat Stats, Subs or Cheers. Anything I can do?
it worked! thank you so much 
Hi! I imported my overlays from Streamlabs to Streamelements, but it didn't implement the CSS correctly. I want the name to fit right in the box but when I enable the custom CSS I end up with just a small black text. Everything works fine on Streamlabs. anyone know how I can fix this for streamelements aswell?
Already find the settings, thanks nevertheless! :))
would I add my streamelements donation link to the sale venue spot on paypal or my twitch channel link?
and can someone give me tips on how to setup paypal business correctly?
Can someone help me with donations they are not popping up on stream

@ripe seal 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.
There is a posibility that the tip may have been sent as an eCheque/eCheck - these tips can take from 7 up to 21+ days to show up on our side. Tippers can usually cancel these.
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
my obs will not show my playstation stream
Hi guys, it's been around 3 lives that I'm not being able to make my bot work. I've disconnected everything and connected again, asked the bot to part from the channel and invited again. Still, my modules don't work. What can I do?
I'm having the same problem, however it looks like StreamElements is picking up on the donation, just not updating on the overlay (Most recent follower also isn't updating)
Quick question and sorry for not knowing which channel this applies to but, if I have over 100% in cumulative variation chance what happens? does it ignore the latest added variations or does it default the percent without updating the value? say i have 20 variations 5% each for subs and i add another 5 percenter does it not get used or will the rest go down in percent while still passively displaying 5% in the settings?

Hello! How do I get my own custom emotes into a module command for instance the roulette commands
@placid hamlet 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
@foggy heart what do you think of my question 
I think it's a lot of math 😅 . I would assume everything would drop in percent to make it even, but depends on what you're using
just the stream elements dashboard but I was wondering because its a lot of work if I want to add another alert, like would I have to change the percentage manually on 20+ variations you know what i mean?
You might be able to find a solid answer in the developer api. I would assume the variations change based on how many you have, but I can't say for sure.
Hey why arent my alerts coming to my stream even after I set up the alert overlay thing
I read that it's broken today in another channel
okay i appreciate the response!
Can anyone help?
It worked! Thanks 🙂
Thanks!! Ill stay posted
my bitrate keeps dropping to insane levels and won't recover!
I never experienced this problem ever since I started streaming 4 months ago
Ok thanks for the help
@weary basin Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
anyone here i can talk to about some of the sponsorship stuff on the SE website?
Anything in particular?
I was wondering if I could legally make a video talking about the SE sponsorship system and show that I personally have been offered sponsorships and that its a worthwhille idea about using SE. would i need to blur out the sponsors and so on or anything like that
kinda like "hey here is something amazing that the Stream elements team has access to as you grow and can be really beneficial and it works like I as someone who has been growing has gotten these offers" and just kinda going hey dont be afraid to do these type deal
sorry nets being spotty atm with the weather, gotta love aussie net
I would probably suggest you send in an email to us (support@streamelements.com), as you may not get an exact answer here.
all good cheers
Hello, there is a way to change default levels to VIP and Subscribers on user Management?
@severe ridge Only thing I can say with certainty is the specifics within the "contract" are a no-go.
Yeah not getting that detailed for sure more of a looking at the SE. sponsorship page andgoing hey look at this, this is a big help with stepping into this
not into the details for sure its for a tiktok so less then a minute dont wanna blurt out pages of info lol
more of a brisk overview if ya get me
why cant i exit out of my obs
ctrl alt Delete ?
Hello everyone. Does anyone know how to make TTS speak in multiple languages? It has no problem reading the English but I can't seem to find where I would set it up to add another language
anyone know why my chat stats page has a page not found error
Are you talking about through the actual StreamElements application or the website? @lofty orchid
website
I don't have anything I can see that's labeled "Add Messages" on the Timers tab, or the settings of the specific timer itself. Am I not looking in the right spot?
@prisma relic Thanks, the bigger issue was I was confusing Streamlabs and StreamElements. Whoops.
i don't recall ever seeing a language option for the TTS ... but i might have missed it. i want to say there isn't one, but i'm not 100% on that.
🤣 ya... that happens often
have you changed your twitch name?
dont think so
when I googled it, I saw there were a number of posts from streamelements on different sites saying they had added language options. I'm not sure though if that means it can only read one language or if multiple languages at one time is possible
hmmm.... i 'll take a quick look and see if someone knows the answer; it's a more common problem when the Twitch name changes or an account is deleted and recreated.
i'll check the API and see if it's possible. it could be a hidden setting or something i never noticed.
After Streamelements crashed today and messed up the alerts and stuff, my OBS.Live activity feed hasnt come back. It's still showing the base twitch activity feed. Is it still messed up, or is there something I need to do to get it back?
owesome. thank you
awesome*
i might have changed my username a long time ago, but before I ever signed into streamelements

i don't see it as an option in the API; there are "voices" but that is generally like male/female (but i'm not sure those are used). i'll ask the smarter people.
Are you missing a dock in OBS or missing the information? Probably best to logout and reload OBS.Live
there is only the default option for TTS @pine bobcat . you would need to look into custom widget for other voices/languages
ok. thank you for helping me 🙂
...there are language options .... just not like English ... then Spanish... then... then...
it's just 1 setting
I've logged out and even reinstalled obs.live. The Streamelements Activity feed just isnt there ):
AH THANK YOU!

Hi guys, what option do we have to add a death counter on streamelements obs?
that could be done with a counter custom command and a bot counter widget, yes
Thanks, I will Google that xD
Any chance of getting a 404 error for the stats page fixed? Channel name is kururingames and hasn't been changed. Account id is 604997052a58749ac7de6f0e.
well im trying to get get my dono to work with obs studio everything else works expect the dono
and when i use streamlabels and look it up theres nothing so its not going through obs as a dono
are you using StreamElements for the tips?
yes
and someone suggested to use the link for my tibps as a browser source but when i do that it just shows the dono page on the screen
i asked for helpin obs server 1st they said i needed to come here
🤣 the dono link goes into your Twitch panel.
yes which it is but when someone dono it didnt do the overlay or anything
You need an AlertBox overlay
i have that
still nothing lol idk if theres a way i can show u or something
like maybe scxcreen share or something idk
open up OBS and the SE website at the same time. emulate the alert on the website.
it should show on both.
to emulate it i have to have streamlabs open
it's streamELEMENTS though, right?
not LABS or LABELS
it has to be ELEMENTS to work
obs studio i downloaded from streamlabs
OBS is the main broadcast software .... then there are many plugins; one of them is Labs and one is Elements. this is for Elements.
anything related to LABS is from a different company
think Apple / Android
ok
i tested it after they donated and it showed but for some reason when they donated it didnt pop up
should be fixed 😉
Thank you!
🤞
if it works with the testing and the emulation; then it will work when live. make sure you have that alert box on all the scenes you want it on (ie. before stream/ chatting / gameplay / end stream)
ya i just dono myslef 1$ to see if it would work and didnt lol
you can emulate alerts...
what is the overlay name you're using?
I cannot see that overlay in your overlay editor, if you're using a StreamElements donation link, alerts from different alert provider will not work for you
i use obs studio from streamlabs so what do i need to do then

New to OBS? Here is a 4 step quick start guide

Want to learn even more? Here is an in-depth overview
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Overview
There's OBS Studio and Streamlabs OBS. We can't help with the 2nd one.
But you mentioned Streamlabs.
i downloaded obs studio and to add stuff to obs studio i gotta go through streamlabs dashboard
so do i gotta download obs studio through stream elements
You are talking about multiple things.
There's no reason to use the streamlabs dashboad.
i guess im confused af trhen
Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
Ignoring that message that's the only place you need to use.
streamelements is a mod in my channel
Allow me to clarify a few things.
- The streaming software that you're using (OBS or Streamlabs OBS) is not the issue here.
- The Alertbox that you are using is not native to StreamElements, and is not present in your StreamElements overlay list
- Our donation link can only trigger alerts that exist on your StreamElements overlay list
- You can find your StreamElements overlays here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays
That should work, yes, after you import, you will need to add the overlay from your StreamElements overlay list to your OBS
yo guys
i just added a follower goal to my stream but although i have 213 followers it says i have 255
@stable compass 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.
not sure if this is the right place but Does anyone know What do you need to stream with two computers?
my sub count is coming up as 0 on chat commands and on obs overlay. I have parted the channel and rejoined but no luck. I've also tried re login and out but no change either.
whats your account id please?
599faa8e137b017b835a221e
try now
nothing yet on either
I added a widget on one of your overlay and it clearly shows subs
odd it still shows 0 for me on the one i already have, and when I made a new one to try and replace it also says 0. Chat commands also still show 0. I'll give it a bit of time to see if anything changes overtime. Thanks 😀
What widget are you using?
just the main one through labels on the overlay options
the label you should use would be a total sub count
I did that one. shall i delete the one that's already on there before hand?
I've got it, it worked after deleting then resetting the session. Thank you. The chat commands one still shows 0 for now though.
part the bot, log out of the website, log back in, add the bot, mod the bot and try again
that should fix it
yup that's done it all now. Cheers

hi can i have some help with stream please
sure, how can we help?
so i want to add a bot that helps me read out a follower on ps4 please can u help?
sorry its not possible on Ps4
um yes it is but i dont remeber how i did it
you are correct. it is possible.
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
you have a computer with a capture card?
i think so
then you will want to plug your PS4 output into your computer
and use the computer to go live
kind of like if you have a 2 pc set up
How do I change my SE pay information? I have a new bank now and need to change where it deposits to

oh 🤣 ... you can't break it
you can add them here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands
Hey is there a way to upload fonts to the overlay editor?
@zealous axle Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/
Custom Fonts
Steps:
- Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
- In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
- Click on Enable Custom Font
- Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually
C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.
Can I make a overlay on my account and share it with a friend on their account
you sure can. just have them add you as an editor
Ok they can then add it to there streamlabs account
yup yup. or you can move it over there for them; when you get Editor
hey im trying to get Soundalerts extension to work with my OBS studio however whenever i play the test alert it doesnt show anything, i have done the things suggested in the help section but to no avail has anyopne had this expereince?
@dusk pulsar you'd have to speak with the dev of that extension.
Happy Tuesday folks. I am still awaiting a response about my Activity Feed being completely blank. It was previously showing Donations only, but now doesn't show anything at all. Last I spoke to someone from SE, which was over 24 hours ago, they mentioned it was being escalated to the Developers to look in to, but I'm wondering the timeline on when this might be fixed? I've had the last few days off Streaming but i'm hoping this can be resolved before I go live again on Thursday so I can showcase some of the awesome SE Widgets to my community. I've been getting followers and subscribers while offline so it should definitley be updating.
ok no problem 🙂 thought it worth asking
Hey can some one help please. Followed instructions to set custom bot name instead of stream elements. I have made a new twitch account for new bot, made new bot a mod, chatted in chat. Gone to authorise new bot in OBS Live by adding new bot account but is not adding. No name in drop down menu. It only says stream elements, channel owner and set custom bot name. What am i doing wrong? Thank you 🙂
Hi there! I've been attempting to troubleshoot on my own, but I'm coming up blank… Two of my subs have recently changed their usernames and now they do not have access to subscriber-only loyalty store item sound effects. These work for subs that have not changed their usernames, so it's an assumed issue with the username changes. I've already gone in and made the store items open for all users and then back to subscriber only, and that hasn't fixed it. Is this a known bug, or is there a fix? I've done some searching on this server and elsewhere and couldn't seem to find a solution that's fixed it.
Let those users try the !rename command, followed by their name, that should help.
Hello.
I am not getting any updates on new followers etc on Streamelements dashboard, but I am getting it on Twitch Dashboard, I have been trying to look tho it but I can't seem to figure it out.
@scarlet garnet 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.
600ec580f03e5e2fcb3e0960
Whenever someone with the character combo "ass" follows, the name gets censored by my alerts. How can I change that? I don't want names like BassPlayer420 to be censored 😂
how do i turn up the volume of media request because there doesnt seem to be a volume slider or anything and its really quiet
whenever someone raids my stream, the alert that pops up is the host alert. i'm aware it's because when someone raids, they also host the stream, but i want the raid alert to show up as well. is there a way to go about this without disabling host alerts altogether?
@scarlet garnet should be fixed from now on
@buoyant onyx you are referring to follower alerts? make sure that profanity protection is disabled in https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings > tip moderation, and reload your alerts
@worthy stirrup if you're using OBS.Live you just hover over the speaker icon and it shows you the volume slider
@round walrus if they raid, a raid alert is triggered, if they host, a host alert is triggered. depends on how they do it (if they type /host /raid or if they go to your channel and click 'host', etc)
hi there is anybody able too help me set up follower goals and sub goals for my stream please feel free too msg me
the thing is is that every time someone has raided, it has only triggered the host alert, and the raid alert never appears on-screen or makes any noises. in my activity feed though, it does show that they hosted and raided the stream
@placid raptor do I have to log out and in? I just got a friend to make a new account and hit the follow button., nothing happend.
@delicate jewel
yeah I see the issue @scarlet garnet
we will need dev to fix it, it will take several days
@placid raptor Cool 🙂
is that in streamlabs @placid raptor
nah that's in the StreamElements overlay editor (this is a streamelements support server) @delicate jewel
sorry thats what i meant stream elements @placid raptor
@round walrus if I'm not mistaken a raid and host will always show in the activity feed
but again, there's no technical way that a host will trigger a raid alert, there's no option to set it up like that
you'll need to test with some1 that can raid you and make sure they type in /raid mooncakey in their chat
assuming your raid alerts are fully set up it will trigger them
also, about alerts and hosts, a small FYI -
@round walrus "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."
i looked through my alerts overlay and it looked like my raid alert's minimum amount was set to 0, while host alert's minimum was set to 1. could that have been what was causing the issue perhaps?
also just to clarify, so the raid alert wouldn't be triggered if they didn't type in the /raid command in chat? ik some folks choose channels to raid through the raid quick-action available through stream manager
so yeah that difference you just mentioned could have been the reason, assuming someone actually raided you before (rather than hosted)
and not only the /raid command, but in general, the raid action (or the host action), be it via a chat command or the quick action or the host button
so if someone chooses the raid quick action, the widget gets a raid event and the raid alert is triggered
same for host, if the host event comes in - the host alert will be triggered
does SE send you a email when you message their support concerning a issue?
(in reference to the one you submitted for me z3groove)
yea, whenever someone raided, it only showed the host alert, but hopefully now with that fixed setting, it should be fine now? i'll look to see if it's solved next time someone raids. thank you for your help and patience!
It was the follower alerts not working and the credits not updating
we will update you here when it's fixed @winged yoke
no worries
They gonna look at both I assume
the credit rolls issue you can solve by using the one that works for you, as the code on both is different
Is there a way to rectify the movie one to look like the other one ?
I have min experience with css
we will try and get the code fixed on the regular one and not the movie one, but I can't give an ETA on that
Ok please and thank you
no worries
@round walrus no worries. it's important you understand that we assume both your alerts are setup correctly
if that's the case - if some1 raids you - a raid event will be ingested, and if some1 hosts you - a host event will be ingested
@winged yoke
try the 'alternate' from here https://strms.net/credit_roll-by_grot
Hello what does {amount} due on stream elements sorry if I sound dumb
well, for tip alerts, amount of money donated, for hosts, amount of viewers coming in from that host, etc
@placid raptor typically for subs just tell me the number he’s up to
what?
@placid raptor does it just tell me what month is subscribe to
oh, for resubs? yeah
you can see it in your widgets though
it's pretty straightforward
@placid raptor OK sorry I’m new to stream elements thank you though
no worries
@placid raptor and I’m on mobile 🤡

@placid raptor when it’s on amount to say one month or does it say one
Does
Also what does MSG Stand for
no need to tag, ask your questions here as these are public channels
MSG = message
and please clarify your question, I don't understand it
 now what does messaged do
When you use {amount} say one month or does it just say one

The only time they see my channel at all (without manually searching for it) is when my stream is over and they see the VOD. Has anyone ever seen this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I am curious as to if there is a way to change my "Streamelements" bot's name
@wanton herald Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live.

If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.
nvm i fixed my issue
I would preffer Ground control. My twitch username is also TacoSmurfz and i was wondering if i could change the bots name to "tacoBot"
TacoBot
you have to make a new twitch account called tacobot
Oh.
probably already taken
Hello, I'm relatively new to twitch and for some reason, follows don't pop on the activity feed on StreamElements and therefore on the stream. I can't figure out why. (when I manually emulate a follow, it works)

Heyyo, I'm pretty new to the StreamElements bot and have been enjoying it so far, but don't understand how to make the bot auto-post a message every so often in chat. I see how to make a custom command, but how do you make the bot post a message without a command being used? Thanks in advance!
yea know one has helped me an 1 hr
I don't understand what you mean by timers; I've heard of them before but don't see in the UI where you actually work with them

@hollow ether You would need to gift the Bot a subscription if I am not mistaken. Then the Bot should be able to use your emotes in it's commands.
Okay so, I'm helping a streamer with his overlays and he just deleted his alerts and then refreshed
is there any way to get them back?
no
RIP
Is there any options to change the bot for my streaming user? I saw it in some streams which use streamelents

@hollow ether That might help you out ☝️
Otherwise i'm not totally understanding your question, can you explain further please?

Okay, i see, i Will try with it
my overlays don't seem to be working before I go live can someone help?
i added a sub overlay to my browser source in obs, but it dosent show up. my follower overlay works though. does anyone know why?

Hello Support - Is there a reason why one alert should show up on OBS but no others will? I have tried re-logging in and also creating a new alert.
What does that have to do with StreamElements @agile dawn ?
Can anyone assist me in giving me the default "!raffle" sequence? i accidentally messed it up @viscid pebble
Im going be using layouts n stuff
You don't need Twitch Prime for that
stream elements looks just like obs but has more layouts n effects right
It's a plugin for OBS that has a couple of extras yes
Im trying to see whats the most I can do with stream elements is the correct statement apologies
do you know the default "!raffle" sequence, by chance? i accidentally messed it up
But you don't need Twitch prime for anything
can someone help when i add alerts to obs only half of it shows
I'm not 100% certain on this but you could try set the Bot reply as: ${user} is Vibing at ${random.1-100} %
yep the download took me here but im famliar to obs
@stray anchor 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
Just understand that StreamElements does NOT have a PRIME thing
nowhere
that is streamlabs
on StreamElements everything is 100% free
yea i think the way you can set up is better and has extras ..i think i just gotta go threw the old teach ya self again...oh yea i know that
i know i was just stating that sorry for the throw off
do you know the default "!raffle" sequence, by chance? i accidentally messed it up CAN ANYONE HELP? lol
this shit?
thanks @wary halo you matter in this world and make it a better place baby
and calm down a bit, no need to keep spamming it

hey i need help downloading ground control for Mac, is this even possible?
@tardy coyote No.
how do i change the name of my chatbot then?
You can't atm.

Ground Control and OBS.Live

You asked about doing it on windows.
I'm sure you guys and gals get this question a million times a day, so I apologize in advance. I'm trying to set up a stream (first-time streamer). Just as a confirmation... if I am using my PS4 to stream, will I be able to use my overlays, alerts and such, on SE when I'm streaming? The website isn't very clear in its answer.
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.

Whoever just did that is amazing.
Hey, does anyone know if its possible to add a solid colour background to the alert box animations?
u can make it in photoshop or photopea
guys how can i connect my streamelement bot to twitch?

@midnight trellis Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
@charred quartz how would I do that, Ive managed to download the video of the alert and put a background to that but it doesnt cover the space of the text too, I want the whole alert box to have a black background because I want it to cover a static image when it pops up
u can someone to do that for you in #art-marketplace @boreal atlas
my alerts are bugged, i can't hear them, but the spectators can... what i have to do??
spectators can't? did u checked the monitoring of advanced audio properties? @rose root
@charred quartz yea i dont want to do tha, i want to learn myself not pay someone every time i need something
sorry then, nothing more we can do. SE already offer themes.
Hi,
Two months ago I put my alerts in stream elements in a separate overlay so that I can use this as a source for OBS Live on PC and console streams. Today I noticed that there are no alerts at all...
The emulation works. But not the preview in the browser. Can someone help me?
@dark willow OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
no..spectators CAN but i don't
again, have u checked monitoring ?
from obs?
Did not work for me. I disable the option. The preview doe snot work in firefox chrome and edge its not a problem on OBS?🕵️♀️
send the overlay url in my dm please @dark willow
just making sure of, did u done these steps below
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
@dark willow 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
@dark willow your overlay has nothing on it?
if is just an alert box, please simulate any trigger
@charred quartz THANKS, all done, now it works
myoverlay and the preview does work fine. but the URL i copie from streamelemtns and use it as Browser source does nit show anything
how do i add overlays
Hey so I recently switch from Streamlabs OBS to Streamelements, I set everything. up, but my notifications for when someone follows or subs to me, has no sound and it shows for like less than a second before disappearing?
your overlay is empty
theres nothing on it, u should add at least an image to troubleshoot that issue
or u will need to keep testing alerts or something if is it just an alert box
"or u will need to keep testing alerts or something if is it just an alert box"
Its just an Alertbox
ok i will send that for you in DM
Anyone know how to reset the credits that you would play at the end of your stream?
if u are talking about the widget credit roll, i think u can't
problem solved.
Hey, Could I get some support (preferably in voice chat) on the Streamelements bot? The bot just stops working after 3-5 days.
I tried installing OBS.Live to reset the name to My name, diff account or SE. Tried parting the bot as well, nothing works to get it fixxed now.
Okay, so it came back with this info: "Successfully moved 29312 tridents, 0 alltime tridents, 8 days 22 hours watchtime and 1 day 12 hours offline chat time from…" but it's still not recognizing this user as a subscriber?
Yea the credit roll, it used to reset at every stream now its holding info and roll ing over to the next stream
Howdy everybody! I've got a bit of a dilemma regarding a sponsorship I recently did. Is this the right place to ask questions?
what's your question?
i MAY have accidentally purchased the wrong "pack" for this goal. I DO NOT expect anything to be done about it but I figured I would ask if there was some magical way to reimburse at least part of what I mistakenly bought haha
was it also $49.99?
Yes...both of them...
there are apparently 3 or more different things that are all 39.99
DM me a clip of the purchase and/or its receipt and I'll complete the goal for you
OH that's so great! I'll get it asap
Moin everyone or together or good morning everyone .. 🙂
I have reloaded stream elements and under stream elements will not still give me an option for the activity feed so I can not name my BOT help
Can you delete an account if you no longer use another account
heyo i've just recently changed my twitch name and after i did my commands dont work anymore? i've made sure to log out and back in but nothing seems to fix it, does anyone know anything about command problems?
It sounds like the streamelements bot doesn't know your new username yet.
i just did some googling and yeah i had to part the bot and then invite again!
yeah, you can submit a close request here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
Hey, anyone in here that can help me out? last time I posted a question in here I didnt get an answer.
sure, what's your question?
@severe parrot try that and let me know if you still have issues
I imported my overlays from streamlabs to streamelements, but the css gets messed up. if I disable the css the image and text loads fine but in the wrong place. when I enable css it just leaves me with a small black text.
I checked the html css and js parts in both streamlabs and streamelements. they are identical. but it gets messed up in streamelements
try duplicating your alert into a 1080p overlay
What exact (or recommended) size of the store's thumbnails?
the overlay already seems to be in 1080p
I'm not sure, anything should look good as long as its not too wide or vertical
Okay, thanks ❤️

Hi, I'm using SE.pay for donations, but when users use my se pay link https://streamelements.com/{TWITCHNAME}/tipthey get sent to paypal and see my personal info. Their transaction also don't show up in SE.pay on the streamelements.com backend.
p.s. I do have my twitch name in the link. I put {TWITCHNAME} so that it doesn't look like I'm spamming my tip link here.
The first transaction/tip is seen in the backend and went through, but the rest are not.
@untold rain you can disconnect your paypal account here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings
It is already connected.
I'm an idiot, you said to disconnect it.
But if I disconnect my paypal account, how will the money go to my PayPal account?
SE.Pay and Paypal are 2 different services and they don't interact between each other
The tips that you received via Paypal will go directly to your Paypal acount, tips that you received via SE.Pay will go to your SE.Pay account
I'm a little confused then. Because the first tip that I got went through se.pay and then got deposited into my PayPal.
that's not possible 😅
Check here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/list all your tips were made via Paypal
So in order for people to donate through SE pay they can't use paypal and need to use their card?
that's correct
how do i set up my alerts on obs. i copied the link and use the browser but nothing is showing up
Oh, that's unfortunate. People are much more likely to donate with PayPal than CC.
@white jasper 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
Gotta say to have it say it hides your personal info, but then the first thing it has you set up is your PayPal account which causes it to share that same personal info isn't an ideal workflow.
SE.Pay doesn't show your personal information, we don't have control over which information paypal shares
At the end of the day it's my responsibility as the end user, but SE.pays main selling point is that it hides your info. Then during set up the first thing it asks for is PayPal connection with no notification that this takes away that functionality. I should have maybe asked first, but something to consider.
SE.Pay doesn't ask for paypal connection
As i said you can disconnect your paypal account on the tipping page
OK, I'm probably becoming a pain in the neck, but now during entering my withdrawal info it says Form Submission Failed and gives try again, which I've done or try later.
try again
Now it worked. TY
Howdy, when someone raids me, the alert box uses my host alert instead. Any way to fix this?
how do you set up a sub count on stream that updates automatically?
All of our sub counter widgets update automatically
Guys if I logout of my acc on the twitch app would I be logged out for ever?
Is there anyway to display that on stream so the viewers can see as well?
@heady remnant if you create an overlay with a sub count, your viewers will see it

my widgets in OBS has counted them but the campaign hasnt
hey yall! im moderating for a stream right now and the streamelements bot is sending "Streamelements: Response Message" for some reason. I've checked the timers and commands and they all seem to work fine so I don't know whats going on. It seems to happen randomly too.
Is there a way to change an active giveaway to allow more tickets than what the limit is set to or increase the number of tickets..
I tried closing the giveway and editing it but it only let me edit the name and text not how many tickets people can purchase
can you provide a screenshot?
doesn't work for an ongoing giveaway as far as I know, you'll need to end it and start a new one
Hi i need help with closing my acocunt, i don't know what a JWT token is? Can someone help me please?
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.
thanks, done all that now it is saying invalid username. :/
have you changed your usename lately?
Hello so for the past 2 weeks or so ive been having this issue with me not being able to see my followers in the mini feed i see raids and things like that but every follow i dont see unless if its from the alertbox on the screen for a split second i noticed if i go to twitch.com to stream manager and i look at the activity feed i see them but i dont want to have an extra pop out of it if i dont have to.
@violet shard what username are you trying to use?
to clarify, you can see them on your StreamElements activity feed, but the alerts do not trigger?
Hi. I donated to a streamer “For A Tax Reduction” So it was pretty high lol. But it never popped up and he said he didn’t receive it.
My Credit Card Statement says “Stream Elements” So i tend to realize it was processed through you guys?
Hey, I'll be more than happy to help, but I won't be able to disclose the streamer's financial information
can they reach out ot us?
I would think it would be my responsibility? He didn’t receive it.
please reach out to me over DMs
@lament blade yes i see them on the streamelements activity just not on the mini feed on slobs it will go on the alertbox make the noise show them on screen but the mini feed doesnt show anything but raids now
and i can see cheers/bits
For Streamlabs? Because I'm not sure I can help you with that
Hi there, my overlay gets cutoff from the top whenever a users message is too long [see image on right side]. how do I make it to only cut off from the bottom? so the message part gets cutoff and the name and amount is always shown.
ok so my overlay creates a fairly large amount of lag in obs
is this a custom overlay?
yes
one that you got from like NoD or VBI? or something you made?
I made it in streamlabs then imported it to streamelements.
does it have a lot of animations on it? ... and also are you using Windows or Mac
same issue on windows and linux
it has one or two videos
with the videos removed does it seem normal (if you can easily check that)
Anyone who can help me with a donation I sent someone, Who didn’t get it ?
Was using SE.Pay to process as well.
if you got a payment confirmation then the streamer will need to reach us.
ok
i didn't receive it
^ That’s in reference to me.
Hey guys, we're looking into this
I believe it was resolved i see it on my SE.Pay Setting.
It's being looked into still, but it did go through, yes
how do i edit a Emote on SE?
Can you clarify on what trying to do?
nvm i got it.
Who’s your guys Payment Processor ?
This is being looked into, I assure you that we will reach out to the streamer shortly
Hello is there a way I can do a fake alert to see if all my stuff is working?
@lament blade 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
^^^
ah I don't use xsplit
well I just tested and everything works
also I have one issue and not sure if I just need to wait
Hi, I have an issue where I start media request and it crashes OBS
whenever I go into my tip page my twitch's pfp isn't there but I did set it to that in stremelements but its still blank.
I assume you've got OBS.Live installed as well?
yes
and it just crashes when you try to play a song through MR?
Yes
can you send me a crash log over DM?
It doesn't have a crash log, the stop stream button isn't clickable
and i have to force quit / end task OBS
@lament blade try to logout and login
alright because my friend was seeing it aswell
when you look at the task manager, does OBS take up an unreasonable amount of resources while MR is running?
@worldly escarp thank you that did the trick!
it says Personal Information Invalid. Contact Support?
i would have to test it out now
what do i do?
we'll reach out to you over email later today
Okay Thank You
Yes it does!
When Exactly?
I can't commit to a specific hour, but we'll try to get to it ASAP
Are you using a laptop by any chance?
on PC
does it have to do with the length of the video / media requested?
Not sure actually 
Let's start by doing a fresh uninstall and reinstall of OBS.Live and see if it helps
Alright, try for both OBS and OBS.Live, if that fails, we'll look into different options
What do you mean?
👍
