can you set the browser source resolution to 1920 x 1080? essentially you could even do that for the overlay, but it seems like there's no need to since it shows up in the desired position and not cut off @potent mica
our native overlays resolution is 1920 x 1080 so I suggest in general having both set to that
but as you can see from my screenshot, the overlay can be a different size, and the browser source should remain 1920 x 1080
and if you see such weird behavior again you can test by using the native resolution
that didnt help.. so weird that its fine for you... what is up with my computer...... (also thanks!)
you are in the EVENTS one right not the temp fix one?
yeah the one called 'EVENTS'
is that OBS 26.1.1?
nice job on hiding the overlay URL btw. I was like 'why did they delete the pic' 
it broke the day obs updated to add "undo" but i checked in streamlabs and its broken in streamlabs as well
LOL yea i deleted it but forgot to save in the editor lmao
any any of the staff able to give me some assistance? it's about se pay, but im unsure what channel I should use to discuss this issue.
mmmm I refreshed your connection with twitch, i'm not 100% sure it will resolve it
have we also tried !emotes refresh and !emotes update in chat?
@west elm ⤵️
Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you.
so OBS.Live doesn't support OBS v27 at the moment
I'd suggest reverting back to 26.1.1 and OBS.Live to confirm this doesn't happen
perhaps that's the cause? I cannot be sure. I don't remember if when you reported it last time v27 was out 
No luck
It happened when I changed my name, so perhaps there is some way to reset the connection between SE and BetterTTV?
it was the day they added undo, i only remember because i was so excited they finally added undo, but yea.... but how would that explain it being broken in streamlabs.. i havent updated streamlabs that i know of. it says streamlabs 1.1.2
have you followed these steps exactly #helpdesk-twitch message ?
(also my overlays worked in streamlabs for a long time i switched to obs this year... ALSO IM BAD AT THIS ONE MESSAGE THING IM SORRY IM TRYING)
yes
do you know if there is a cache file or something i can delete for OBS that wont mess with my setup?
we can't really help with anything about SLOBS, they have their own rebrand of OBS that we can't troubleshoot, if you're having any issues we'll need to troubleshoot either on OBS Studio or with OBS.Live installed
and as of now the difference between our setups is just the version, and since it's working well for me that'd be the first thing I'd advise to check
and as for reverting to OBS 26.1.1 - a. you can do manual and cloud backups for your profiles \ scene collections \ settings \ OBS.Live just to be safe
but b. this instructs pretty well on how to do so - #helpdesk-selive message
okay thank you ill look into it, also i only mention streamlabs cause the same thing is happening there which is weird. maybe ill also ask on obs discord. this is really weird. thank you for testing it though so i at least know its something on my end.
before you go to OBS I suggest uninstalling OBS.Live to see if this misalignment thing persists. I believe they'll instruct you to do it if you confirm to them that the plugin is installed
(naturally if it stops happening when OBS.Live is un-installed you can update us about it, but we'd also want to test if it happens on 26.1.1 since the plugin is still not compatible with v27 and since it's not supported we still can't assist on that)
yea i dont have time right now if something goes wrong before i stream, but ill mess with it more tonight. i just tried "deleting" my obs folder in appdata and i still have the problem with "fresh" 1.7. just wante dto rule that out. ill reinstall tonight
ok, feel free to update mere here with a @ if it was indeed resolved by rolling back the OBS version
okie!
I'll take a look at the account but I'm afraid it'll have to wait a bit 🙏
shall i come back later then?
you can feel free to ping me in like 1 hour, maybe 1.5 hours to remind me about this 🙏
well i'm going to nap, just got off night shift. if it has to wait till tomorrow its not the end of the world. the issue does seem to be between the name change and SE/KappaGen/BTTV though, everything else works fine
Anyone tell me Why SE asks "Where do you want to dupe this" but thee are no options? I don't see a way to create groups or sections (I have Personal then all the ones I add in from links just go wherever they go)
What are you trying to do exactly?
Hey, any staffers on that I could talk with on DMs for a sec
Let's try here; I'm all ears.
@keen wigeon I was just duping an overlay and it asks where do I want to put it but there are no options so I was just curious. Made me think I could organize my overlays but doesn't appear you can. Like the ones I actually use I would put them in a section the ones I don't would be in another section. But I guess that stuff is NOT organizeable
(IE when I download an Overlay it always put's it in it's own "category" but when I click the ones here in Discord they always go in the "Personal" section)
It's about a fake SE account on Twitch, rather wouldn't share publically
I see! Firstly, about the "where to" question, if you have multiple channels linked to this account, you will be able to duplicate overlays to them, which will then give you multiple choices as to where to duplicate to.
Ohhh gotcha
So you cannot actually manually create these "sections" and move overlays around - gotcha. Would be nice feature 😄
Yeah, you can't do that easily right now. If you duplicate an overlay into the same channel it'll go to the "personal" section, if I'm not mistaken.
Ok, DM me.
Oh well just a minor thing 😄
Still learning over here. Going well so far.
@keen wigeon Thank you for the help
Gladly. 💜
Someone can help me ?
I'm tryng to set a custom name to my bot, but it's not working
Can I get help with a issue I am having with my Raid Widget that I have to display?
I want to set my own nickname so the bot can use my emotes, but i change the name on yoink.streamelements but dosen't work
@hallow ore ⤵️
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/re4theQ.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
Yes, what is it please?
I tried this steps but, after i click Authorize the option does not appear at the "Current bot name" field
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- In the Target field, add the following to the very end:
--remote-debugging-port=40404(don't forget to add a space before the current path) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
Every time someone completes lvl 10 it gives a alert then the widget disappears until I go in the properties of the source and refresh the cache data. Also it is not updating to new sub goals
I got this error on the console
You're not in the right place in the main window then.
I guess this is not possible?
Not that I've seen or have been aware of, unfortunately.
Hi all. I am in need of help/support. I've purchased custom animated alerts that are in .webm format, but cannot upload them into custom CSS - they do not display for some odd reason. Using CSS is the only way I can use the text correctly for alignment.
hey, I'm currently doing a charity stream and tips are not showing on my end. My mod has donated to test it and it says the money is going through on their end, but I have nothing in my revenue history, and no money in the paypal connected to my account. Is there something I'm overlooking? :I
This question should probably go to #dev-chat. People there will be better able to help you.
Thanks
I'll take a look.
@keen wigeon any idea on what i replied to you.
Heh thanks for the update. 🙂
Looking
Is it possible to use {urlfetch} in the overlays as a changeable text field?
It should be possible, but what exactly you want to use?
Thank you
I would like to use a text field that changes through an API. For example in the game DbD how often I escaped as a survivor. Example of Api Response https://dbd.onteh.net.au/api/playerstats?steamid=76561199001859203&stat=escaped
@scarlet tiger
I am looking into it. Few moments please :)
Yeah thank you. Ping me pls if you answer
@slim aurora What that link should to show?
Its only a number
Oh, i got error before, now i getting 52.
strange for me it is working fine
What you mainly want depends on what the link requires to retrieve the information. If it's a link that simply requires specific input (Like the steamID from the link above) you'd have the respective variable here to retrieve the desired info for the user. ${customapi.https://dbd.onteh.net.au/api/playerstats?steamid=${1:}&stat=escaped}
Where the user would do !command variableinfoneeded and get the response as intended.
The command is not the Problem. I want to have the information in the stream (overlay)
We're in touch with our developers in order to get to the bottom of this. We'll probably only have an answer tomorrow.
When you can, please answer this: did you edit this widget, changing the events or switching between them in any way?
Also, we fixed it 🙂
@keen wigeon i did not. What do i need to do now
Nothing. It's fixed. It happened because event 1 and event 3 in the widget were the same event. We fixed it thanks to you, so thanks. 🙂
Wonderful thank you
Hey I'm not able to get visuals on my alert box I unchecked the Hardware Acceleration Box in Advanced settings and I still only get the sound playing for my alerts.
anyone has any idea of how to make a celsius to farenheit converter command? I don't know how to use $eval
What size did you add the alert overlay as in OBS?
800x600
delete those, and re-add them at 1920x1080
@fast thicket ⤵️
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
Still not working
I can't get them to come up on streamlabs either
Are you using Streamlabs or StreamElements/OBS.Live?
I'm on just straight OBS
Gotcha. What happens when you emulate them in the online overlay editor through Chrome?
how do I do that?
@fast thicket ⤵️
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
Oh ya the alert I need help with is from streamlabs sorry I guess I should hop on their discord instead
No problem, yeah we don't have any support for their services
Hi, the past few weeks most likely a month whenever I've tried to stream there has been a notification in the bottom corner of my pc where it says OBS disconnected then it will do another one that days OBS reconnected. This stops and restarts my stream every time it happens but my wifi is not going out at that time as I stream online multiplayer games and the game I'm playing at the time never has an issue where I dc or anything. is anyone else having this issue and does anyone have a proposed fix?
Im trying to set up a social command but in the chat its all out of wack
Can i make the white text to the left and the link to the right or i can't
Have you tried going into OBS Settings > Stream and disconnected/reconnected manually?
The bot output doesn't use break lines for text
alright.... Thanks !
Hello there is someone german here?
i need a little bit help with the work on streamelements on my overlay

Hello!
We're having another issue with the store, this time with a different channel, JuMayumin. We're making her store and from yesterday to now, all the items disappeared from the store, leaving us with only the blank screen with no items, not even the "no items" screen, with the video that tell us to create an item.
Just some useful info on the issue:
- The was items on the store for 1 week-ish, with which we were testing some stuff.
The issue is displayed on the first screenshot, the second one shows another issue that happened when i created/deleted an item to test if it was really bugged.
Feel free to ping me for any additional info on this.
I just checked the account, and it doesn't seem like the store was started. Did the streamer start the store yet?
What exactly do you mean by that? We were just setting the items up until the update, did it changed how it work?
Would you be able to have the streamer login and see what it look like on their end? Just trying to confirm what we're looking at here. I'm not seeing what you see here
I will try to and let you know about her feedback.
hey guys so i setup all my scenes but my game capture doesent work its just a black screen
@craggy mango ⤵️
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
I changed my channel name, and now my bot doesn't work! the dashboard has updated. OBS has updated... ive logged out of everything, unmodded SE, logged back in and re-added SE as a mod... my store redeems still play, but my commands like !discord and !merch are broken
@steel oriole ⤵️
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).
thank you! old name: z0mb13plagu3_plays new name: z0mb13xx
I have just done that but to be clear you mean disconnecting my twitch account and reconnecting it?
Correct
Ok, I have done that. Thank you for the suggestion 🙂
Hello team! Could someone explain to me how the emotes section of the slots module is supposed to work? The example shows viewers winning emotes and winning/losing points, but these emotes are free. Am I supposed to put my emotes there (which I don't have any)? If I delete all of the emotes, can I just disable that feature?
Where is the setting to turn off the profanity filter for alerts?
If you want to disable that, you can disable the slots command in your dashboard, if you're looking to not use it
You can adjust those here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-spam-filters. You may also need to check you tipping settings
I like the slots command where people can like gamble their points, but I don't quite understand the emote part. :/
nothing in there. Would tipping settings be affecting sub alerts tho?
Hi newbie here. Can we multistream? Already connected to FB and Twitch. When want to go live, only FB will live. Nothing in twitch. Thanks
Not possible.
Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allow faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and fill out the form here: https://streamelements.com/contact with each token correctly labelled
That's the only benefit of having multiple accounts conencted.
Noted. How i switch to twitch live? when setting the stream key to twitch, click start streaming but will pop out FB for live
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Just so I can have it for internal reasons what version does OBS say in the top left and for OBS.Live in the bottom right?
@placid raptor i cant uninstall it........... (i have restarted my pc)
Yes, blocked words here will affect alerts
That's super confusing
So the emotes themselves aren't won/lost, the points bet are. Basically the slots work like slot machines, but instead of common images you use emotes. If that makes sense! In the module for slots, you can see it in action
@placid raptor i reinstalled 26.1.1 anyway and its still broken. but like i said it wont let me uninstall obs.live
What do the "Show Details" say?
show details?
Please change this. It makes no sense that filters in "tipping settings" would be censoring the names of people subbing
OH
I have previously brought up the issue of the filter being placed here. I'll bring it up again.
let me look im dumb
in you're screenshot, it has a show details button that may describe what went wrong
oh well then, it actually worked now that i reinstalled obs 26, maybe obs 27 was stopping it. anyway i guess let me try uninstalling obs again.
How do I share an overlay with a friend of mine? Is this possible? Would I just give him the overlay URL or is there a more in depth way?
You're able to share overlays that way, it has to be between connected accounts
okay I did a full reinstall, correctly this time, also decided to rename my old appdata folder just to rule anything out, completely fresh install of both obs 26 and obs.live... and... its still broken T_T I don't understand. tagging @placid raptor again because he said to btw.
So his account is obviously not connected to mine then... lol. So is it not possible then? Cause I wanted to maybe even share it with a few others as well if at all possible. But connecting accounts is a different story
when I shared the link with him the first time it just tried to preview it to him with a blank screen
Sorry, it was supposed to say not!
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

oh ok
would you happen to have any idea why my overlays are mis-aligned, seemingly only on my computer Taffy? here is where it was talked about earlier #helpdesk-twitch message for some reason it looks fine on z3's obs but on mine its all messed up.
Does anyone know how to change the bank for se.pay? I disconnected but when I click connect to try to change the settings, it just automatically reconnects with my old settings
@dense thicket ⤵️
Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you.
thank you!
I don't know why it specifically looks that way on your machine, is there a special font being used?
yes. it looked fine on my machine for about a year and then a few weeks ago all my overlays became misaligned. heres a side by side. top is streamelements preview on the website, bottom is in OBS
do you think obs did something to suddenly make it not able to read the font? should i try an older version like obs 25 or something?
well it is reading the font but its adding weird margins..
Does the black border around the words change how it looks? Like a possible white background? Probably not, but something that came to mind
the black border is just an insane amount of text-shadow and it shouldn't affect it. do you have links to an older version of obs i can try?
Hmm i did some tests just now and maybe it is the font... Maybe a windows update is what broke it for me.... i will look for another pixel font and report back.
Gotcha! For the older versions of OBS, you can check here: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/tags
@placid raptor Any news? No rush on the response, just sending a reminder
i found one and yea wtf. it was the font... that i used for over 2 years in various ways.....wtf. now that i think about it there was a major windows update at the same time obs updated to obs 27......... i think this was windows fault somehow? idk. i found another font that pretty similar though and it working so i am just going to switch to that. thank you for giving me ideas to try @foggy heart because i wouldnt have even considered that, and thank you for the help earlier @placid raptor (just tagging you again so you can know you don't have to reply to my other messages that were updating you!)
No problem! Yeah, sometimes the weirdest things change and we never know 😅 . Glad you got a solution!
any SE help here
I was curious if StreamElements Tipping Moderation also bans names
not just tipping messages
in the 'Filtered Words' settings. just want to be safe and not dumb names (if people are not required to login)
Yes, if names get caught by the filter, they will not be show, if that's what you mean
does anyone know how I export my alerts from streamelements to OBS studio?
@nocturne belfry ⤵️
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
Hey guys, i've been having some problems with my activity feed at twitch and streamelements, where two of my suscribers haver always resubscribe but the notification doesnt show up at any place not even on my obs, they're suscribed with prime but also i haver anothers suscribers from prime and their notifications do show up in every single place like twitch, streamelements and obs. So is it a problem from the other two or the platforms, can anybody help me, please?
still doesnt workj
Ask them to refresh the stream website (just press F5) and share their resubuscription. Prime subscriptions have an issue that sometimes it doesn't show up when resubscribing and the viewer needs to refresh the page.
What exactly doesn't work?
-
On your alert overlay, click on the three dots and "Copy URL"
-
Go to OBS and on your sources, click on + button > Browser
-
In URL, paste the URL copied before
-
In Width and Height, put 1920 and 1080, respectively
-
Check the option "Shutdown source when not visible"
-
On Streamelements website, click on Edit on your overlay and then on "Simulate (bell icon) > Follower (or sub, bits, what you have configured). Check if the alert shows up on your OBS
I'm having trouble disabling the video/image in my alertbox.
I followed the procedure, and it's not complex but for some reason none of what I have appears on my obs screen, if its okay would we be able to get in a call and I share my screen? it comes off as a very quick fix, maybe I'm just being oblivious
hey would someone be kind enough as to direct me to the scene store thing. just moved from labs cause it basically deleted itself thank you
you mean the overlay themes?
im just trying to find a general setup that i can modify afterwards
If I wasn't going to sleep in a few minutes I would do that with you with no problem.
- Make sure the option "Preview LIVE on Stream" is checked on your Overlay Editor page (sending an screenshot for that)
- Do you have your alert appearing on the Overlay Editor page when you do a simulation? If it is appearing on the Overlay editor, we can narrow down the issue to OBS.
- Can you hear the notification sound on OBS when you simulate the event?
I already have this on, and i see it on that page but not on obs, i do not here the notification sound on obs

I dont meant to put pressure but i forgot to answer to you and i write it individually, but this was my answer: Mmmm, no its not only when im on stream, it's also at the activity feed when im offline that doesnt show up not even at streamelements or obs o twitch, and it's funny because other suscribers does show up at the activity feed when im offline but this two just dont. They're first suscription did show up four months ago, but the resuscriptions not at all 😦 and im really desperate because they always ask me and i dont know what to answer because its like they'ver never resuscribed so, idk what to do
Did you try his solution with refreshing the stream page and sharing their subscription?
They've already done that but it doesnt show up not even at the activity feed, on any place, i think it only shows like one or two resuscribers but from that, none of the others are shown. I can only see how many suscribers i have but not who they are because they dont show up at any place really 😦
Hi! I try to use “!slots”. The massages work but even if you win o lose, the points don’t change. Why? I didn’t find the error🤔
@coarse wyvern ⤵️
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.
We did something to fix this, future subs should show. Please remember though, that the Prime sub issue means that they still might not show up without refreshing and sharing their sub again.
OMG I UNDERSTAND NOW.🤣🤣🤣 I was literally so confused on what the emotes were for, but I get it now, it's like the pictures that the slot machine lands on.😂🤦🏼♀️ Thank you so much for explaining this to me! @foggy heart
Are these points like the actual channel points, or do I have to set up another kind of points system?
It's the loyalty points, which is a separate system, controlled by us. Channel points are Twitch's system.
Ah okay. I will look into that then. Thank you!
can anyone explain me how does the raffle works? do the winer get points or not?
they need to type !join to get it
they do
try running the command , not the multi though
okay will do
let me check something
okay lmk
but not on twitch?
the points are managed by streamelements
they need to also use streamelements and they can use it on the loyalty store or media req etc
okay so they dnt get points at all on twitch got it
pretty much 🙂
@lament blade, posting suspicious links will result in not being able to post again.

Yes, but before I was at streamelemts

Awesome thank you for looking, will it keep showing error 404 until the stats come through?
no, why, is it showing 404?
Well can't send link
However if you go to the channel stats page, it loads but says 404
It is showing 404 but it's not an "actual" 404
Streamelements has the error labeled wrong
then after that, channel bokosoce
Hi, I am trying to edit my alert box variations but when I upload a GIF or Image, it isn't showing me the Layout options. One time it appeared out of nowhere so I could choose the right layout for one alert variation but then it hasn't worked since. Anyideas why I can't see the layout options?
try now
Yep page loads, how long roughly until it gets stats normally? Usually it's pretty quick?
Beautiful, thanks for your help
Hi team, can you please look into whether my followers webhook is working properly. My follow alerts are not showing. My "recent followers" widget is unable to display any data. Thanks, Cat (disneycat)
Are follow events (or any others) showing up in your activity feed?
Ok, I nuked the webhooks just for the heck of it and now my follow shows. So it's probably ok, please test in your next stream. 🙂
Hi Figment, thanks heaps for your help! Yes everything shows up in my activity feed. I just saw the follow show up as a new alert in my OBS so looks like you fixed it. I will retest it in my next stream. Thanks again heaps! 😊

anyone else having issues with random alert sounds playing?
i cant see anything in the activity monitor but we hear random default stream elements alert sounds but nothing appears on screen or in the activity feed
Hi. What sound is it?
Outside of the alertbox only the redemption widget can play sounds pretty much.
hard to describe, pretty sure its just the default alert noise
i dont see any redemptions in the activity list though
Maybe some other 3rd party overlays creating sounds?
possibly, ill keep investigating, thanks anyways!
Why are my store items no longer there/deleted
could you elaborate? you had a store with items and then a day after you had no items?

sorry the store page design was updated
nice thank you for letting us know!
Hi everyone can someone help me with my Kappagen on my stream elements as my own emotes wont show up in the list of options
sub emotes?
yes
it's a known issue, I'm afraid, we're working on it
ahhh right okie dokie thank you 😄
For chat stats - we can fix that. Please provide old and new name if you renamed your twitch account recently. If not, just the regular channel name.
how do i add a subathon timer to streamelements?
there's a subathon widget you can add, it's our widget library
How do i go about editing an streamers profile as an Editor? Say i want to add the thing that pops up when someone tries to chat for the first time, and i want to have the rules be there. Or change the links and other info that is on the profile for the stream? Or is that not something i can change as an Editor with SE? I was sure i read somewhere that i could.
that's the twitch's chat prompt
it's done in the twitch creator dashboard > settings > moderation > chat rules
Ok so, she is the only one who can edit that then? Or is there a way i can without having to know her passowrd
Dang, ok, well thanks for the reply. What about the other things? Like the links to social media etc?
is that changeable in SE? or just twitch as well?
Also, for some reason, the SE overlay is not showing up on stream. What could cause this?
Overlay - try to refresh the cache of the browser source in OBS
and social media is in the profile on the site, can be changed if needed
Is this something i can do from SE dashboard? She is streaming from mobile, so, does that have OBS?
Website, social media is in the profile. If you wish to have the social media on stream - gotta add that to overlays.
I meant refeshing the cache of the browser source in OBS, does she hae to do that on her phone? or do i do it from SE dashboard, or did you answer that and i just don't understand?
She is streaming with our mobile app?
Yes, and we have had the overlay working previouslly.
I edited it live, and everything was working fine, now it's just not appearing at all.
The app itself does not show the overlay, is that on stream?
Or is the overlay not visible on stream?
Not visible on stream, i am ware the streamer can't see it when they stream.
Let her try and delete cache and data for the app, maybe reinstall. There are not many settings to fix that from the app
Ok, i will just have her unistnall and reinstall. Thank you.
Hey all, are we aware of any issues with the twitch bot at the moment? seems mine has just stopped responding to commands, have parted the channel and re-joined but it's still just sitting there chilling and not doing anything?
The bot is operational. Check if it is in the channel, not banned or muted and if you use the custom bot name - please disable it for testing.
@ebon forum nailed it! Disabled the custom bot name and it's started chatting again, every day is a learning day 🙂 thanks a lot
@wheat echo ⤵️
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- In the Target field, add the following to the very end:
--remote-debugging-port=40404(don't forget to add a space before the current path) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
This is the fix for the custom bot issues^
@ebon forum probably should have mentioned i'm running Mac
Heya! So I'm currently having Issues with accessing / buying stuff from my own Merch Store that I made with Stream Elements, I was wondering if there is something going on atm or why can I not access / buy anything?
Also very sorry if this has nothing to do with Twitch I'm hoping that this is the right channel
Hello! Loyalty points question: Do followers earn points for gifting a Sub? Or does the recipient receive the points for subbing?
Hey y’all! Looking for some help!
I stream from console and I use stream elements website for my bots and modules.
My bots and timers all of sudden stopped working on my twitch? Any suggestions
Oh okay okay thank you !
Is there any reason why donations are not showing up under a donation widget?
i have it set to all time, but it says "No Data" Donations have been made since i set it up.
Were they made through our donation link? Can you see them in the revenue history tab?
Oh, no they were made using a streamlabs donation box. I was hoping since everything is linked it would work.
I'm attempting to remove it and put a SE donation box it, still trying to figure out how to edit the main page of the stream.
Everything else is working fine apart from the StreamElements bot, the bot does not appear in chat and does not respond or work with commands? I've tried logging in and out of both Stream Elements and OBS.live but it still appears to be broken? Any help?
Channel name? no links.
Me?
yes
jamezgamezplays
our widgets can only track donations made through our donation link
Makes sense. thank you for the reply.
looking for twitch bit files to use as media in a video?
If you mean for the SE dev docs you're most likely at the wrong one. Channel topic in #dev-chat
Ok thanks
You've got follower mode enabled and bot isn't mod. Won't respond to anything because of that.

i have a streamer whose emotes wont show up in the kappagen emotesplosion selection.... and he is logged into thru his twitch profile. He did change his emotes approximately 2 days ago... is that a reason his emotes would not appear in kappagen emotesplosions yet? Or something else the problem? thanks
would those be sub emotes?
correct
this is a known issue, we're working on getting it fixed
Where and how can my viewers redeem media share?
they can either redeem it via the !sr command if it's free, or through your donation page if it's on a payment basis
@green heath, posting suspicious links will result in not being able to post again.
how do i mute my discord on stream?
If it's playing through Desktop Audio, you'd have to adjust that sound so that it isn't being output to the stream

Hey, I need some help to figure out the correct syntax for a custom command. What I want to do is add the value of a counter to an other counter, e.g. ${count counter1 +$(getcount counter2)}, but it's not working 😦
I would check out the helpdesk-developers channel as you may find better answers there for command syntax
Got it.
Is there a way to get the metadata (x2) colored without having to create a new label and choose a font color?
Is it possible to make a command that, when I typed on chat without typing his name, will return his watchtime?
So I have two accounts I think. I’m trying to connect my twitch and Facebook. Any chance anybody knows how to fix this?
Are the name and x2 separate in the editing portion on the overlay editor?

Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allow faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and fill out the form here: https://streamelements.com/contact with each token correctly labelled
you're looking to get a watchtime without designating a viewer?
no. I'm currently making two seperate labels, one w/ the sub name and the other just the metadata. I'd much prefer if it were possible to do it all in one mainly to reduce unnecessary padding/empty space when, for example, someone with a smaller name subs
@foggy heart YEAH!
A specific user
Just like !watchtime [username] but without username, if u know what i mean
I don't think it's possible with the default labels, but it might be worth checking the other widgets/themes available to see if that option is there. I know the alpha gaming widget lets you change that
So the deafult !watchtime command should already work that way, have you tried that?
I just need it and i cant do it
@naive hamlet ⤵️
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.

boop...
I don't see a chat stats page for you, which is what is needed for that extension. Have you changed your username at all?
So, we found out what the problem is, the store is fine on both ends, BUT, there's an issue with the it, which is the issue we had, if the store has no "enabled" items, only "disabled" ones, you can't access the disabled tab, when we created an item just to test, we regained access to the disabled page, after refreshing the page, which is where all the items we created are. Also, deleting the only enabled item caused the bug from the second screenshots and it's really easy to reproduce if needed.
So maybe you guys want to change that to avoid having other people with the same issue, having all three tabs visible all the time should be the easy fix for this issue.
yep i have changed my username, about 2/3 weeks ago i think?
can you provide your old and new name?
old name was peachishh, new one is xopeachish
Thanks for passing that info along, i'll be sure to let our team know!
Thank you, have a great day.
Didn't see any info under the old name, so I made a chat stats page for your new one. You won't see any information populate until things happen in stream, so the leaderboard may still be empty until then
it works now thanks!

Hi i was wondering if any knows how to get your own twitch sub emotes into a kappagen?? on my stream elements it only shows global and ive signed out and signed back in and im not sure how to fix it! i also heard there was a bug earlier this year
Should be all set
thanks i'll check it out :D
Can you try running !emotes update in your chat?
it works thanks :)
Hi is there anyway i can delete myself from the chatstats leaderboard? i want it to just be my viewers 🙂
(without affecting everyone elses stats)
does the countdown timer widget that you can use when a sub is triggered, is it able to disappear when the timer runs out?
how do i do that? : )
you just type that command in your own twitch chat
nothing happened lol
Hello there.
I'm setting up the donations and bumped in to a doubt.
Does the person that is donating need to be logged in a Paypal account and necessarily do the payment by it, or the person can just put their credit card info and do the payment? (There is no SE.Pay to my country).
Thanks in advance. =D.
channel emotes only work for some users, that command works for some but not for everyone. Our team is working on a permanent fix
okay thanks for the help! ❤️
If it's set to paypal, it's going to prompt them to sign into paypal, then choose a card to pay with
Thank you.
Also, I'm running some tests here, and started to receive the following error: "error seller restriction".
Do you know what it is and how to solve it?
In regards to what part of the site?
When I try to do a Donation from streamelements. The first one went alright, but when I tried the second time the error popped up.
I believe that is an issue on the Paypal end, and not on ours. Might need to reach out to them and see
OK. I'll check on them as well.
Also do you know how can I see more details about this error on streamelements? That way it will be easier to talk with the Paypal attendant.
There isn't anything more specific on that error from our site, I'd bring up a possible account restriction on their end
Alright. Thank you so much. Have a great day/night.
Hello I stream on OBS live and I used to have my chat and channel activity up inside of it. Lately it hasn't been there and I can't get it back.
go to the streamelements menu > obs.live docks and enable activity feed and chat
It doesn't allow me to go into obs.live docks tab
is the option not available?
it's greyed out in the tab
try relogging to your account by logging out and logging in again from that same menu

@violet lava ⤵️
- Restart OBS
- Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+.
hello guys I have a problem, i withdraw my money today from s.e pay, but it is still.the old bank acocount , can I refound It or maybe to send to the correctly account ? thank you a lot

@final cloak I replied to your email/ticket around 10-15 minutes ago.
i cant tell if its saying have a game open or dont

That link has information about what is going on
Basically obs isn’t running as admin, and you only need to have one capture for gameplay Active (game capture preferably). Once you fix that, replicate the issue again and provide the log
If you have to start stream to replicate set your title as “testing” and go live
how do i run it as admin
Right click the shortcut and go to properties > compatibility > change settings for all users > run this application as Administrator
still happened so there you go

yeah its dropping frames randomly thats my problem
How do i add alerts to my scenes?
Dropped frames indicate usually a network issue
eveyone else in my house is having no problems with network and games are running fine
In the streamelements dashboard you have a section titled “My Overlays”. You copy the URL of the overlay and paste it into obs as a browser source
What is your upload speed?
@violet lava ⤵️
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.
Just because others can stream Netflix and connect to CoD doesn’t mean it doesn’t impact network performance
You also have this @violet lava - don't use Wi-Fi to stream
i have to check that with a speed test right
Speedtest will give you download/upload speed
i wifi stream every day and it works beautifly
You need wifi 6 and gigabit fiber to stream on wifi
Wifi is not stable for streaming
what do i use for the speed test is it the twitch test bandwith?
Thank you
That will tell you your connection to twitch
Speedtest.net will give you overall upload
PING ms
7
DOWNLOAD Mbps
77.45
UPLOAD Mbps
1.84
Holy shit
There’s the problem
Your obs bitrate/resolution is too high for your upload
it ussaly works idk whats going on i stream every day
my bitrate is down to 1500kbps
On a 1.84Mbps connection you can do 540p60 at 1.5Mbps
Your upload is what you send to twitch
Assuming you get all of it
Set your resolution output in video settings to 540p60
Try that
It won’t be perfect, but you probably won’t drop frames
960x540
what about the base resolution
Base should match your monitor
Output should be what’s stated above
ok
You’d rather have lower resolution but stable frames than terrible frames
You should def look into upgrading to better upload
If you had 10Mbps upload you could do 720p60
my wifi is having an off day its ussaly in the 50s
do i shoot for trying again and if frames still drop send another in @dry hare
Could someone help me merge my streamelements accounts? I have one for my Youtube and one for my Twitch and Id like them to be under the same account.
Honestly at 540p on your upload (even on wifi) it should be fine

@crude pecan Sent! Thanks! How long does the process take to merge them?
alright well screw streaming today i guess its a off day for me lmao
Unless you can fix your wifi to be above 10Mbps there’s not much you can do
Can someone please help me I’m desperate. All of my widgets work on my overlay except media request and I’m not sure why. I can’t play music because nothing comes out. It plays on the website but not on my overlay please help
You have the media request widget added to your overlay?
@dry hare yes I do
It used to work and then one day it just stopped a week ago and I haven’t been able to get it to work since
Can you do the following:
@dull totem ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
I use the website, I don’t have the obs installed, I add the overlay I made in the website to my elgato software
You need to use obs.live for media request
It worked without it though
It used to
I am not able to do that because I am on Mac and I record through my elgato capture card
Obs.live is available for Mac and you can add an elgato capture card as a source
I just downloaded it how do I input my overlay from the website and activate my camera and media request?
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
Add your webcam as a video capture source
are you using Brave browser by chance?
No ….standard windows 10 browser and safari on ipad
Can you try in Chrome?
I did and its the same
Ok ill give that a shot
Looking for a bit of help. Wondering if there's a widget that can play an alert sound with each message sent in chat? My channel is super small and it'd be really helpful so I don't miss stuff
We don't have such a feature unfortunately. There is an external tool that can do that, but I don't remember its name
Oh cool, can you point me in the right direction?
Use discord search for #widget-share and doorbell
awesome, thank you!
Hey guys, I stream to Twitch but everyone is complaining that my streams are muted. What can I do to fix this? How can I properly set this up?
I stream through Elgato btw
If you are having issues with Elgato hardware or software, we recommend reaching out to their support here: https://e.lga.to/help
Was just doing some testing, is !nuke supposed to have an error with StreamElements?
Originally wanted to use the command to display a tactical nuke emote
Unfortunately it's a hidden command that me and others are working on trying to "fix" to avoid situations like this.

This doesn't help

my sound capture doesn't work at all
Hey! I'm having a frustrating issue.. trying to change the sounds of my alerts, I've easily gotten everything to work, except for "re-subscriptions", any idea how I change that??
Variations
Already gone through all of them, not sure what I'm doing wrong
Every other subscription variation works, gifted, community, upgrade, continued and whatnot - but not re-subscriptions
Answered in ticket ⤴️
Appreciate it, thanks!
Hey i have different sizes of sub alerts. Gift alert is fullscreen and sub alerts i small one. So i must create two alertboxes.
But when i emulate gift sub it shows gift alert but in same time it shows sub alert where it displays the person who got sub.
How can i dissable that? Thanks
In order to allow 2 alert widgets to work properly in 1 overlay, you will need to copy 1 to 1 the same conditions between the widgets for variations.
Example:
Widget 1 should show Community Gifted above 20 - this has the image and sound
Widget 2 should NOT show community gifted above 20 - this has the same condition, but doesn't have the image and sound
I dont need to make it work in one overlay. But even if i make it in 2 overlays (for each alerbox one) if someone will get gifted sub it will trigget gifted sub alert, but in same time it will trigger sub alert in other overlay and i must turn this off somehow right ?
Even in 2 overlays
doesn't matter, same principle applies
both alert widgets need to have teh same variation conditions
but one shows the image and sound
while the other doesn't have any assets
ok, thanks
Hi there, is there a way to change my username? I changed my name on twitch and when someone wants to donate the tipping page shows my old twitch name.
@strange ice ⤵️
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).
done
So I have a question. On the Shoutout Display widget, is there a way to add sound effects to it like the original one from Streamlabs Chatbot version did?
It would be best to ask in #dev-chat and more specifically the creator of the widget if its possible.
Fully noted, my apologies.
Looks like the new twitch gif's don't move on the kappagen overlay. Will this be something that can be fixed in a patch?
Yes, that should be fixed over time, but currently animated emotes are not supported in Kappagen yet.
thanks ❤️
how do i make a subathon widget
We have that as a widget here:
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/themes
Go to widgets and find the "stream marathon timer" widget.
when i copy the url it wont work
andd i dont know what to do from there
Once you create it, it becomes a new overlay, it is here:
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays
use that like every other overlay, add to OBS with correct dimensions. And of course you need to edit the widget to have the data for your subathon as you like it
how do i do that
o i see it now
thanks for your help
i have one more issue
Yes?
i have it set up in stream labs but it wont show up in stream labs obs
its flawless in edtior but wont work in obs
i dno if i did something wrong
Hi. I just watched the youtube video about contests and giveaways with streamelements, but I'd like to know how to block someone specific from entering a giveaway. Can someone help me?
We can't really support Streamlabs OBS. In general it should work as it is a normal overlay. Make sure the dimensions are correct
it wont in preview either
it sized right
Does the widget work in our overlay editor?
yes
everthing works
when its in the edtior
Then you need to make sure you set it up correctly on your end. Once again, we can't really support SLOBS.
ik but it wont even work in preview
Preview in the browser or preview in OBS?
browser
Are you sure that you have set up the widget and started it? Remember that in the browser it will reflect the current overlay state, so you need to save that in the editor first and let it run
And make sure you do not use white text on white background.
yup
its just a plane background
And what do you see when you open that overlay in the editor?
the timer
i have to use the ad 60 seconds button for it to start
the start/restart button wont work
There might be an issue with old code for the uploaded widget, that should be fixed. Let me search for a minute
Try that one please
I logged in on another computer but how do I restore my backups?
I have tried logging out and back in
Cloud backups do show my backup, but niether settings nor scenes have shown up.
If someone could help me with that, I'd be very glad. 🙂
The giveaway system does not have a way to block someone specifically, you need to block the user everywhere else
Hello! I have been having a problem logging into the StreamElements website (specifically to manage giveaways for a channel I have moderator permissions). Every time I log in, it loops back to the Site front page. If I log out and then use the login option in the top right menu (as apposed to the one in the middle of the page) then it will allow me to get to MY dashboard but trying to switch to the channel I manage loops me back to the front page again. This has only been happening for the last few days. Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
(I have tried Chrome, Incognito Chrome, Edge and Private Tab in Edge.)
Channel owner has to log out and log back into StreamElements website.
oooo really? it's that simple?!
I'll get them to give it a whirl in a moment
thank you!
oh, thats sad. but thanks anyway.
Well technically you could charge loyalty for them and block the user from that.
Hmm. Good idea. I will work on it.
Its just because I dont want the winner of a previous giveaway to enter again. :p
So I dont want to block them on everything
Hi there,
Could somebody help me?

account id: 5ea46b9b83c527a734143be3
I changed my twitch username. I checked the store right now, but isn't available
hope this is the right channel...i have updated all of the events w/ a custom mp4 - follower event, donation event etc. - but for sure reason cheers event will not upload. in the preview box i can see the mp4, but when i emulate event it still shows the streamelements default, any advice?
Can anyone tell me if there is way that I can have the follower name constantly centred in this dark purple box on the alert?
Currently using margins and I know that they will look weird with longer usernames
Set the text to centered in the text settings, that should work if centered correctly. With longer names it might cause issues later, specially if they do not fit
I did that, but it just centres if self to the whole thing.
Choose last one.
Probably you didn't change the variations of the different cheer values. Click on the Cheer alert cog and "variation settings".
@pseudo jewel i only have one variation selected to avoid that, the one variation is if viewer donates at least 1 bit it should play the alert i loaded up
theres my alert in the preview that i loaded up, but when i emualte event it shows a dancing shark lol
Disable enable custom css
"enable custom css" is already off
For both main and this?
If you have just one variation, it should be better to disable it and keep only the main notification, don't you think?
i diasbled every variation on that screenshot now and when i emulate event it works now
with no variation selected though if this happens live, will it still work? i thought one variation would need to be selected but im not too familiar
Need Hype Cup help, the cup doesnt seem to be filling up with bits, subs, anything. Any help? I also can't seem to emulate anything now either.
hi! i'm having trouble with my overlays on stream. i test them out when offline and they work, but when i'm streaming the issue i run into is always either that the alert shows up, but there's no sound, or the alert flashes very quickly with no sound and i end up missing follows and subs. any guidance?
is live chat closed now?
Currently yes, but i saw your ticket and replied to it.
Hi. I would suggest to refresh the cache of the browser sources in OBS first and check if that fixes the issue.
Also if you have upgraded to V27.0.1 - might be problematic, we recommend using OBS 26.1.1 for now, specially with OBS.Live
i saw it, thanks for your help! 😄
@ebon forum Any ideas on my HypeCup issues?
what size does the browser source have to be on OBS to fit the overlay
thanks! i'll give that a try for tonight.
@ebon forum thank you very much, it appears to have fixed it!
Hello
excuse me, how can i add the command for quote ? i only see the !quote command, but this is for search them, not for add them right?
!quote add
Would anyone be able to help me set up my stream so I can get alerts such as followers, subs, etc to appear on the screen?

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
I found a theme I like, but how do I get it for my stream? I want to use this one, but when I do my stream its just the game
@jolly scarab ⤵️
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
So when is new sponsorships gonna come available??
for some reason I'm not able to get TTS working on my alerts while on stream (even though they're working when I test them in Dashboard), and my overlays are saying "saving" when I alter something but aren't ACTUALLY saving after sitting in that state for a while. Anything anyone can suggest/recommend?
hello i would like help with my video capture and fitting it to the screen full without ruining resolution?
What is the resolution on your OBS setup? And of the capture card?
not sure if this in in the right section or not ... but ... I was doing some giveaway's on my channel today and
** chat was typing !ticket ( the # ) **
and it was not doing anything ... is the only way to do giveaway is to visit the " Public Page "
because i can't get it too work ... sorry if this is the wrong section if so please let me know ...
A friends Streamelements is positing every command/timer two times. Can’t find a solution anywhere
resolution is 1920x1080
do you have the command enabled?
What are the timer settings looking like?
checking lol but i swear to all that is hold ... lol if that is why i will 🤦♂️
** I dont want to talk about ... it ..."
@foggy heart - thanks i think that works lol now it was not enabled lol
😅 No problem, happens all the time
I have no capture card.
** thank's got it working ** @foggy heart
Is the video capture set to the same resolution? Might help if you provide a screenshot of what you're seeing
The streamelements page isnt working for me now.. But it goes for the normal commands as well
Cant find any timer settings other than these. But everything has been fine for over a year. Timers doesnt matter tbh, the normal commands being posted twice are more annoying
video capture id like to stretch to fit screeen without ruing video the resoultion. its looks super stretched )_=
Have you got obs.live running and the activity page open in a browser?
Not sure since it not my stream, will try to find out
In my experience, that’s caused bot commands and timers to double up if you’re using a custom bot name
I see, I know she recently changed her bot name. So it will be fine with a custom name as long as she close obs.live and/or the activity page? My knowledge about this topic is kind of limited 😅
hello?
If the video source doesn't fill the whole screen, the capture will try to match it. What are you looking to capture?
@bold swan, posting suspicious links will result in not being able to post again.
I hold down shift to strech it fir on screen and fill dont do much
like i said i had it but i deleted and not dont remember what i did not have clear res and fill video capture device
When you go to add it, can you make it 1920x1080 in that properties window?
is on device default
or other is custume
ohhhh i see
thanks
i used custme and added resoultion
Gotcha, did that come out the way you wanted?
thanks traffy
yes it did thanks
now to have my account un suspeneded for nudity when i had no nudity )_= keep me in your prayers i love to dance
bye ❤️
Good Evening Party People, I have Got a problem with the lables, my streamer did streaming as normal and then suddenly the lables for the Names of Subs and Follows Rips off and i have no Idea, how to get the names back...
Chat bot down for anyone else?
Yes. It's down for someone I mod for right now too.
just lagged out for like 2minites
^^^
yup it just flooded my chat lol
I'm getting an issue where the streamelements bot won't join my channel. I get an error message on the dashboard saying it won't join
How do I resolve this?
@fleet cosmos ⤵️
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.
5fe08d11ae5e0eeb12d6a0b1
Is there any creative way to link channel points and stream elements?
Okay it joined but my commands don't work now
There is no current integration for channel points
Does the bot respond to commands at all, or just no response?
Can you log out and back in? I see it as joined on your account
on streamelements or twitch?
Streamelements
okay i just did
it says it joined on streamelements dashboard but I don't see it on twitch
Do you use a custom named bot by chance?
yes
try this other fix
@fleet cosmos ⤵️
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/re4theQ.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
okay that works
if i want to go back to the regular StreamElements bot name how do I go about doing so
it doesn't seem to work if I go back to the original
You should be able to do that with the same instructions
i'm not sure if this applies here since I don't want to use the custom bot name but rather the default StreamElements name (1st entry)
Then don’t set to a custom name in the steps
You should be able to leave it as-is and it will be streamelements
yes but when i do I get the issue again where the bot doesn't respond
i'll come back to this later and use the workaround for now then as I need use of it at the moment
thank you for the help so far
Feel free to try this as well:
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- In the Target field, add the following to the very end:
--remote-debugging-port=40404(don't forget to add a space before the current path) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
did you ever find a way to do this, friend?
hello, someone knows a fix about a disconnect reconnect problem with obs? the live works fine for like 5 min than it disconnect, reconnect, than disconnect again than reconnect with no audio. i'm streaming with this connection for like 6 months without issues and i can play with zero lag and zero disconnection while obs disconnect
Have you tried disconnecting OBS manually, then reconnecting?
my game capture is constantly a black screen when i go to stream, any idea why?

So, i'm having another issue related to the store, since the streamer don't use SE for donations, we took off the donation bonus on the loyalty settings, but with only 2 bonuses active, the whole block of information vanishes from the store page, as we can see on these screenshots:
At the moment i removed the tipping bonus, the other two aren't showing anymore:
Is this intended or is it a bug/issue? Because all the info that shows in that box are relevant enough to not need a minimum of them to show up.
I havent been able to figure this out for the life of me. Is there an element already built that will show my current live viewers that i can add to my overlay?
Is there a way to make the regex expression longer for the chatbox advanced settings? I need it to match a list of words (relating to copyright-protected artists for song requests)
The widget or the dock?
If you closed the dock you can simply click streamelements > obs.live docks > chat
thank you
Any time!
Let me look into that
#widget-share message - Something like this?
Perfect. Thanks.
Can someone help me please. I am using obs live and my media request audio isn’t turning on. I am able to play the music video on stream through my widget but no audio is coming out. Please help
When I open up OBS, the preview shows the streamelements website??
?
Could you provide a screenshot of your whole screen? @lofty comet
when media share videos are playing for some reason it sounds like the same video is playing twice so i get this weird echo in my stream. Pls help.
@lofty comet almost all of your sources are browser sources
@dry hare @abstract hemlock could I get some help on mine. The stream can see the music video on my media request but no audio.
Yeah i made all of my overlays on streamelements
but none of them are capturing chrome for example is what I meant to say
@sinful fossil ⤵️
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output Scenes After Transitioning.” Also, keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
Do I have to make an audio source from my media request? The widget is there and the music videos are playing but no audio
@lofty comet no need to capture chrome, looks like one of your URLs is wrong
which?
Can someone reply to mine as well
I'll have a look at all my URLs
@dull totem 1 at the time please 😅
@lofty comet yeah you may need to check 1 by 1, you can click on the "eye" to see which one is causing the issue
I am streaming a big event tonight I just need help for this simple fix
alright, I'll try that tyty!
@abstract hemlock sorry I just got people watching me trying to fix this and it’s delaying my event
ok, so you can see the video of the media request but you can't hear it, correct?
You're able to hear any other sound on the overlay?
ok i open the overlay that has your media request widget, and it sound correctly
I’m sorry what do u mean by that
"spinabenz,whoppa wit da choppa".. a remix for a thousend miles
you have the media request on a separate overlay
you need to add that overlay into your OBS
ok , let's try this > right click on the browser source > properties
then click on "control audio via OBS"

@abstract hemlock ty for the help!! i had to change pretty much all the URLs not sure why they all changed
It’s working!!!! Thanks so much. Any idea on how I can delete the choppiness from frame drops? @abstract hemlock
@dull totem ⤵️
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.
hello none of my alert sounds are working even when i go to test them a little grey box pops up that says my alerts are muted & i cant figure out how to unmute them for the life of me
its not just 1 layout it is ever single one
At the bottom editor box in the overlay editor page, you will see a volume icon that controls whether the alerts are muted or not. Should be on the same bar as the bell that triggers emulations
thats the problem
its giving me this mesage & they sounds are not muted
if i mute them & unmute them tests work
but still no sound on my stream
emulation sent, but alerts are muted & when it says they are muted it means for everywhere
every layout is like this even a brand new one i just doloaded make by stream elements
Can you share your account ID so I can take a look?
i found it
stream element dashboard > activity feed> there a little button at the top of the actual activity feed that says mute alerts & i must have clicked it at some point
thank you for the help
No problem, glad you found it!
I,m back
thx
Can you explain me the point 3rd and 4th regulations? to be sure? I don't wanna make any more problems for you guys?
cuz' maybe I accidentally break this poins due to the fact I'm new small streamer and I'm don't know this stuff like NSFW/NSFL??
Idk what's it's mean to be honest I tried to google it
@ornate quartz ⤵️
Read and follow our server rules:
- We do not tolerate toxicity! Treat the community team, staff, and all members with respect.
- No advertisement or channel promotion, anywhere on the server.
- No NSFW/NSFL
- No unsolicited DMs or friend requests to server members
Make sure to read the #welcome in any server you join.
The bot tagged the twitch "url" that you posted, so I would avoid posting more of those
I see The bot recognised it as the not stream element website, right? but can we input url from streamelements?
I would avoid any links
Ok, we can add picks to our sentens etc. but avoid the links, right?
as long as they don't break the other rules/are related to getting help, that's fine
sure I'm here for help not for making the mess and destroy the good website as streamelement is community))
Ok
Can you tel me it's possible to create and add the hyperlink to OBS?
Are you trying to make a shout out command to point to another users stream?

Hello
How can I blacklist certain members from using the songrequest bot?
I would like to blacklist certain members, not have to whitelist all requesting members
Via OBS.Live's Media request dock, you can ban people from requesting.
Is there a way to do it on the website?
Unfortunately, no.
🔴 how to create a command !convert for conversion local currency to dollars in chat of stream? thank you...
I accidentally logged in with YT and connected with twitch, I wanted Twitch to login and connect with YT.....now it says channel has already been claimed what to do now ?
@lament blade we don't have a default way to do this, but if you find an API point that returns pure text when given a number, then you can use ${customapi.[link]}. For more help on this, I would recommend asking in #dev-chat

Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
did you select the right window on obs ????
yes i did it doesn't wana show ,my csgo on obs ive selected the capture specific window option and its still black screen
@sour topaz ⤵️
Valve has implemented a trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post here https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/.
Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in trusted mode. https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8835-KLXV-0292#whitelist You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and use Window Capture instead.
Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software.
how could i go from there with launching the 3rd party software

Hi I seem to be having an issue where streamelements is not recognizing when a Raid occurs on twitch. Just wondering how I could about correcting this? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Streamlabs or StreamElements?
I use streamlabs obs but I have my alerts coming in through streamelements
Is there a way to shoutout a specific user on their first message in chat?
@ebon forum ahh I see the confusion now, my apologies, I have corrected the original message. When I check my activity feed in streamelements, everything Is showing except for raid events
Can you give me your channel name?
@ebon forum sidequestsean
Looks like we got some issues here, somebody had that name in our system in the past. Then it became free and you renamed to that name. So now we have a duplicate.
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
Please give me the account ID from that page^ Need to find the right channel here
@ebon forum ohh I see, that actually might have been me, it had the account previously but it was linked to other devices, and long story...
Sure, 1 moment
I updated the obs and my stream would crash. So i uninstalled that version and went back to the pervious one. Now i cannot get through a full stream with out it lagging out and crashing. I have tried everything i can think of to fix this

a lot to type.... im basically computer illiterate and am trying to stream on twitch from my ps5. i do not have a capture card. my question is, how do i get a decent overlay onto overlay expert?
you need a capture card
well shoot... any idea what kind of card might work with an hp pavillion that has an i3 in it? elgato says i should have a 4th gen i5 at least
I downloaded Soundtrack by Twitch and I now have no desktop audio, even after uninstalling it, so I can't stream. Chat can hear me but no game audio, anyone else have this issue??? I use StreamElements

Is the ${args.emote} variable still functional? I've tried my best to get it to return an emote, but am having no luck.
the input should be an emote when using that
This is the input/response:
10:17 RangerARL: !emote Kappa
10:17 StreamElements: ${args.emote}
ayo what's up logang just a quick question... changed my name on twitch and the Streamelements Leaderboards extensions is still tracking my old username and gives an error. Is there a way i can fix it by resetting it? How?
change args to 1
is it on your channel or another streamers channel?
omg, thanks! I already tried ${1}, didn't realize just the 1 was the stored value. Thanks a bunch!
it's my own channel! i tried uninstalling the extention and reinstalling it to no results... thanks for the answer! any ideas t solve the issue?
i'm not sure with the extension; i'll see if someone else knows.
thank you so much! i saw somewhere on reddit that someone has to change the tracking numbers manually... do it need to open a support ticket?
the extension data takes a while (days) to update.
thank you for the reply! is it going to transfer my chat data as well?
yup; it is linked to your Twitch ID and not your name. But the name, from what i'm told, isn't refreshed often
ok so i guess i'll have to wait for streamelements to catch up with the name change? thank you so much for the help you're gamer !!!!111!
Any update here ? Thank you !!
chat stat page is 404 after changing your name on Twitch?
Can I also ask here a twitch question or just streamelements?
Yes, but it was fixed.
The problem today my store with twitch username isn't available: /filzera/store
You can, but depends on the issue we might not have an answer
avaiable*
merch store? That one needs a manual reset to be re-created with a new name.
Oh tks
in /dashboard/store/ ?
It's on /leaderboard/current ?
Don't you see badges in the pofile when you click on someone in the chat with microsoft edge browser? because with opera I see or is that a Bttv or frankerfaceZ setting?
Are you talking about the stream store or merch store?
SE/filzera-4305/store (current)
No idea how to answer that, i have not used microsoft browsers for anything outside of downloading Chrome... for 5-6 years at least.
Stream Store
The stream store will use the same name as your tipping page etc. If the name "filzera" is taken, the numbers will be added to the URL
Are you using Chrome? Do you see badges in the viewer card there? (I think its called viewer card xD)
