Please feel free to refer to the following set of articles for great information on the getting started process - https://strms.net/getting-started
@tropic flower ⤵️
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.
have u changed twitch names recently?
Nope, it's been the same from day one
Hi! So I started multistreaming with Mobcrush. But i want to use the same overlay on all platforms. Now i do have to make some adjustments. For instance i have a progress bar with followers and everything, but this is solely for twitch.
I would like to know how to get a counter/label of all platforms. Can i do this in one overlay or do i have to make one for every platform? In my case twitch/youtube/facebook
oh..and i just cant seem to connect my youtube channel to my twitch channel and vice versa. I have to login separately

@placid raptor 60e5f32a0fda237cdaf845ef
SE doesn't have multistreaming support
yes, thats here is my new twitch name.
created a fresh page for u 👍
come to chat
sorry, what chat lol
Amazing thank you!! 🙂
your chat 
my pleasure 🙏
xD unban me, and do this please - Please part the bot from your dashboard > logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout > log in again > re-invite the bot > mod it by typing /mod StreamElements in your Twitch chat (make sure it's not muted).
ok i try
but it is that neither in the panel appear
ping me here when it's done
alright thanks!
no worries 🙏
what panel? you mean activity feed or?
do you have a minimum viewers setting in your host and raid alerts?
do not touch any of that I have it by default which is one that I know
the problem will be twitch?
@placid raptor is this now right that i am not listed anymore as broadcaster on this list, not as cytek not as lowrez ?
Is it possible to exclude bots and users from the top command?
yes, the current name should not show up there. the previous name showing there was a bug that we fixed by setting that name to a low level and reset your name, after the bot rejoin
not really [for the command output part at least]. they can be excluded from loyalty altogether though, add their names to the loyalty settings filter
ahh ok, thats why i can only setup vip mod and co and no broadcaster option. ok, thx thx, so this was really a bug. thank you
no worries at all, glad to help 🙏
Fine with the loyalty stuff... but bots and myself take over the leaderboard
if u block them from loyalty they won't be assigned with points, same goes for yourself
you can edit their current amount at any stage, too
oooo I can?
so just edit them out and add the relevant names to the loyalty settings
either from the dashboard > leaderboard
or with the points commands, !setpoints USERNAME 0
these are bots that are listed in chat, watchtime is assigned to them too if they're not blocked in the settings.
but watchtime is also editable in the UI
If I would you know... look around a little bit I would find it. I see where it is
Thank you for your help
naaah don't say that, sometimes it takes time to find things. no worries 🙏
Im trying to do to many things at once haha
One last question... what about offline watchtime?
Uhhh so I started having my stream elements bot do chat timers and now I get this weird one where it’ll just say “response message” randomly. I checked all my timers and none of them are empty and the only auto one I have on is for followers. Any ideas?
I did not get my After Stream report? 😦
my stream can't hear my game chat, they can here me on the main mic but no game chat
my steam isnt pulling up my game but will show the display if i turn that on
Yea, I did not get my stream report in the email
Been waiting for a few minutes now
Reports are currently down, but we are looking into it
Awww man 😦
One of those timer messages likely has an extra field that has no data in it but that messages. Check those timers again, and if you don't see anything, let us know your account ID so we can look
recordings and streams arent broadcasting my mic but the meter is picking up my voice, ive tried restarting the program and my computer but nothing works.
does anyone have any ideas?
Hello so I am trying to get some rewards in fortnite for taking part in the leaderboard challenge for a streamer. I have not received the rewards so I contacted support and they told me to get a screenshot of the leaderboard position. Where can I find that?
Hi, guys. Any chance someone could help me? My elements doesn't track activities for chat and emotes, any reason for it? I didn't change nickname, it works fine tracking subs for instance.
Will I still be getting an email when the Email service is restored? I would love to see my analytics
hello guys . i need help, my chat in obs can not connect to twitch chat
Got an issue, streamelements chatbot stopped working, so it does not post commands in chat and we tried to mute and unmute it and we also tried to make it part the channel and join again, we also added it under usermanagement as a mod, but it just does not work anymore, anyone else having this issue or a solution for it ?
Hi! I have the bot connected to the other account for it to change the bots name and its still coming up as streamelements instead of my new bots name? yes the account is a mod.
Where is it not tracking this information?
Is it giving you an error when you try?
@vague egret ⤵️
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
It is not a custom bot name though
@vague egret ⤵️
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.
Amyluna12tweirdo is the account
we can see streamelements in the chat right now, but triggered commands is not going through
Let me take a look
can someone help me with my alert box/ sound alerts? chat can hear it but i cant hear anything on my end. monitor and output are both on in the advanced settings
@vague egret Yeah, try those steps out when you get a chance off-stream, and if that doesn't get you going let us know!
This steps right ? 🙂
Yupp!
And thank you, I will try it out after her stream and then I will reach out again if it does not work
Thank you for coming by and helping us out
Not a problem!
hello i need help
everytime i use stream info and chat box dock in obs i get this. they act like this.
hello can you help
@signal bear ⤵️
Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
so that seemed to work, only issue is that when we "set custom both name" and auth with it it does not show up in streamelements obs live, but we are just gonna use the streamelements name
i just need help learning how to use stream elements i tried watching videos but i am still confused
For the last month or so I stopped receiving emails for my stream summary. I have checked my spam and don't see them in there, so it seems they are not being sent. Can anyone confirm?
im still getting mine, check if its the right email in your SE acc, check if your email can contain more (most webmails have an upper limit)
so guys.. can i copy layers/items from one overlay pack to another in my dash? if yes, how?
Drag them over obs until they show they will reconnect
@foggy heart seemed to help, but we noticed another thing, we tried to auth using "set custom bot name" and then login through twitch to auth it , but it just won't show that custom bot we can only see streamelements and "amyluna12tweirdo" in the list and not the actual botname we authed with (we tried multiple times).. I looked at my obs setup and it has my custom bot name in the list and I have selected that for use.. do you have any idea what the difference could be?
There's something else you can try, one moment
- 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.
Thanks, I will try that out, when she gets back or one of the next days, thank you for the quick responses 🙂
can i tell SE i dont want any video or image? feels like it forces me to. i guess i need to change something in html?
With alerts?
You can remove the image, but you may have to mess with the text alignment to make sure the text shows in the canvas
if i remove the image i think its gonna take a standard image via html
ye no text... hm
Where you able to adjust the advanced text settings?
yeh just found them
so.. i tried to add animation to the text and the entrance works, but not the outro.
StreamElements is not joining a channel I mod for, is there issues going on preventing this?
be sure its not on the ban list
or your personal(or streamers) ignore list.
you can do /unignore streamelements in any channel to unblock them
🙂
Looks like the streamer banned the bot
it happens
hey can anyone assist me real quick?
state your issue and we can be quicker
Having an issue that when updating to the latest browser versions, list pages are showing oddly. Any ideas?
Is the skin thing back up
hello i'm having a stream issue with my obs it keeps automatically shutting down my stream and it didnt do this last night could someone please help it be greatly appreciated
Hi, I've changed my twitch name from silhouette166 to lexietriesgames recently and now my chatstats command leads to a 404 error !
Hi, where can I get ground control version with custom bot name function. The website says to ask in this discord.
yo, i have this command for nightbot and wanted to find analogous syntax for streamelements. It goes "!days" "$(countup 8/26/2021 EST) days since last found keycard Sadge". If i need to use an API text output thats alright but i figured yall might know the count command better or already have a widget. ty
Why are my sub alerts not working but all other alerts are working just fine?
When I run test in my overlay it works fine but in real time when someone actually subs...nothing?
Hi, I've changed my twitch name from mariurbinaaa to mariiau recently and now my chatstats command leads to a 404 error !
which variables do I need to use to be able to hug someone randomly in the chat?
even when I do that they still show glitchy
How did you get them to display?
went to view in obs then docks
when i drag them out they act normal for a second till i hover over them, then they act the same way in that pic
doesn't matter if obs is updated, ran as admin
Have you tried clicking reset ui?
yes
Hi guys! I recently became a Twitch Affiliate and I want to add the "Total Subscriber Count" to my intermission screen. But the counter is always at 0.
In settings, the Message is: Total Subscribers: {count}
Logout from the dashboard and login again
Nope. It's still at 0 😟
Reset the totals, it should be fine now
Hi! My streamelements leaderboard doesn’t update any stats. I read that having a name change could effect it. I have had a name change before on twitch. How can this issue be resolved ?
How do i reset the totals?
I did it for you

it's working now! thank you so much 😍
Hi again!, im having the same problem with my "host" alerts, when someone make a "Raid" shows up the animation of the "host" , i've checked the backend on streamselement but seems ok, please, how can i fix this? thanks so much!
My old name was brigthighs and my new name is Syth202
In here you can see the animation of the Host, but is a Raid, i check the backend in case the videos where wrong, but they are ok! how this is happening? can you help me please! thanks so much!
When someone raids you, Twitch sends both Raid and Host alerts at the same time
unfortunately, Twitch can send the host event before the raid event, so our backend catches the host event and then the raid event shows up
so this will trigger the host alert first and ignore the raid alert
but this never happened before
so now the host with 1 view, are not working, and the raid will triger the host animation. should i change the raid animation in the host alert? is that the only way now?
It does happen, though, the difference between the 2 events is a fraction of a second and we can't control which shows first, as that is how we interpret the incoming events
it all depends on how twitch sends the events
well, with stremlabs works fine!
if you want to change the animations, sure, but you can just disable the host alert and have only the raid alert active
Different companies, different methods 🙂
i check it already, works the 1 view animation and the host alersts
so is not twitch
my concern is that never happen before
I've seen people report this "issue"
I'm also not blaming twitch on this
i'm more explaining how the events function and are sent
basically imagine a queue - twitch just puts in the queue the host event and raid event, but sometimes places the host event before the raid event
i understand, but seems is not twitch, cause other platforms are working correctly
so we see the host event and ignore the raid event
its not an issue - its how we handle events
different companies have different ways to handle events
Ok, its an issue then
thanks so much for the info man!
need help adding chat box and alert box to obs live
looked on youtube and found nothing
Here, nothing shows
I was told that Chat Stats existed. However, I can see the Chat Stats of the person who told me about it, but when I use my own URL, I can't see it with a 404.
The streamelement BOT is resident in the chat.
I have tried to re-login.
I have also restarted my browser.
I've also tried leaving and reconnecting the chatbot.
I know from searching that someone else has the same problem, but I can't find out what to do 
can you do a goal to track sub POINTS instead of number of subs
it may be possible; but that would require Twitch API calls and isn't built into 3rd service.
have you changed your name on Twitch?
I created a Twitch account about a year ago and I've never changed my name~ 
zoumotu3 ? that is your linked account.
ya~ When I click on the word Chat Stats in the streamelement, nothing is displayed.
No, you can see the graph for a moment, like in a kinetic vision test, but it goes to 404.
i'll send in a request.

It's now displayed!
Thank you! 




Hi, is it possible to use the stream overlay with Gamecaster?
As long as they have a browser source, then you should be fine. But if the overlay doesn't load, we might not be able to assist as that software is not familiar to us.
Sorted it, it works!
Thanks anyhow. There's a "Web Page" widget for future reference - could be worth adding a support article for it
Make sure yo have logged into SE website and check if everything have updated on your username. Also, every command, where you put the link in to your old account those needs to be updated to the new one, unless it's done with variables. 🙂
check the variables. the subs are a little diff as you can set diff reactions depending on sub, resub, gifted, more gifted.
just target. 🙂
unrelated to SE, anybody know how this feature work in the custom rewards https://i.imgur.com/drClgrE.png
does it set a limit per user, so one person cant use it more than once in 5 min?
or is it global, so if one user uses it once, nobody else can for 5 min?
Sorry for ping! I normally do not ping staff. In regards to raids that also triggers the host event, can it prevented? When someone hosts, I want a short ping, when someone raids I want a PARTY. 🙂
does anyone knows how to remove these events?
Thats up to you how you setup your alerts.
To prevent how twitch is sending the event? No, thats an API/backend thing from them.
cooldown for everyone. go down a bit and you will see limit poer user per stream
yeah i saw that, but its missing a time limit unfortunately
means someone can spam it lets say 10 times and then cant use it at all for the next 10 hours.. sucks
remove the layers in left side.
what events? Those are the testing buttosn for alerts
is there a way set it up? currently dont have host at all, but im thinking about it.
yiou can set a cooldown per user on top.
oh ill shut up heh
how? cant see that option
theres 'redemption cooldown', 'limit per stream' and 'limit per user per stream'
i dont think the cooldown/limits feature was designed with what im doing with it in mind heh
The same way you change the raid alert in the alert widget.
my bad! you have cooldown, limits per stream and limits per user. apply the cooldown, apply a limit.
wait... im confused. i thought that was what caused the issue. alert box on SE, raid and host alert and ebcause the api ping CAN stumble on it self we have a trigger that sends wrong
any way to give my mod acces to my dashboard for easier acces to the commands ?
Raid = Host
Basically, twitch sends both events at the same time - the difference is, that there is like a 0.00001 second delay between each event or something like that.
Sometimes when someone raids a channel, the Host event is placed before the raid event in the API flow, so we get the host event before the raid event.
In the past, we've had a different issue with those events where we trigger both the host and raid events in the alert widgets - there were a lot of complaints about it so we decided that, if we receive the host event before the raid event, we play the host alert but ignore the raid alert. Vise versa applies as well.
@lone quest ⤵️
Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your channel name at the top of the dashboard
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted
Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0
thanks so much
Thank you! I have logged in and one thing I noticed is that in the bot users my old name is still listed as broadcaster
yes you can give them access to nearly everything but you need to do it on per user bgasis
log out and back in
So I can't prevent it, I rely on the API sending the correct one first.
Or just disable either the raid or host alert and have them be like a "catch all" type alert
so which one is left, make it play and notify that "We just got new peeps join, with X leading the charge"
something liek that - its neither a host or raid alert this way
Okay! I just did and my old name is still listed 😦
log out, do ctrl+R, try log in again.. with the right twitch acc
true, but i want my raid alert to be long, but host to just be a short ping. thats the problem here. I COULD have it a ping for both and then start thye longer one manually. 
Still the old name. One thing I've done too is to disconnect stream elements from twitch and then reconnect, and it didn't change either
What is this about? I think this convo stems for a while and not sure where it starts.
well its thw wrong account that shows for her in SE.
what if you try and log in in private mode or form anotehr browser?
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.
I tried both and it was still my old name both times 😞
ill let Kei help you out
Thank you though 
yeah he can better help you than i can
find the ID and ping him with it. 🙂
The ID?
hello everyone. is it possible to show an alert for a prime sub?
Hello, could you tell me what each of the user level options means when adding a command to the bot?
I don't quite understand what user level Regular means.
Chat/Bot Levels
100 - Viewer
250 - Subscriber (Twitch subscribers automatically placed at this level)
300 - Regular
400 - VIP (Twitch VIP automatically placed at this level)
500 - Moderator (Twitch chat moderators automatically placed at this level)
1000 - Super Moderator__
1500 - Broadcaster
Dashboard Manager Levels

Subscriber is paid subscriber?
Channel sub.
So there is no follower level?
No.
ok, thanks
@zenith widget Hi ! CassiopeiaGames told me you might be able to help me ; I've recently changed my name on twitch from silhouette166 to lexietriesgames and in streamelements my old name is still listed as broadcaster

wastebasket? really?
Waiting for step 3 😅
Chatstats are also fixed. There was no old data, so it starts from 0.
Thank you ! The fact that my old username is still listed as broadcaster in the users management tab of the chat bot isn't a problem?
No this is not an issue in general
hi! I know !quote is standard setup in streamelements and that i can use !quote add to set up a new quote, but how can i edit so for example only subscribers and above can use the !add quote command ?
also is it possible to add date after the add quote messages is showed ?
ok thanks for letting me know
Hey all,
I'm an xbox series x streamer who used a elgato HD60s to PC through OBS to stream to twitch.
Yesterday for no reason my game chat stopped broadcasting to stream, the game play can still be heard on stream so my viewers couldn't hear other team mates/hot mics.
If I go into a party chat they can hear them.
Every stream before that it's been fine, has a setting changed on warzone/xbox/elgato that could be stopping this?
When I disconnect my headset it starts to pick up the game chat again
Hi. I would recommend checking other USB ports for the capture card, checking if anything was updated recently that could cause issues (OBS, drivers etc). We are not really able to help with 3rd party hardware and software issues in such cases.
hi i have recently been doing a sponsored stream and wondered when i receive an email to set a payment method to receive my money ?
Hello, currently trying to sort my bot out for chat, but it is not working and I have tried every method on getting it to work. Anyone else having an issue with commands for their chat?
Hi. You get the payment portal invite during the 30 day period. It is not instant.
Let's start with the simple fix - please remove the bot from the dashboard and add it again.
I have done that, i have parted channel, joined channel, made sure the bot was a mod.
Did you try to use the custom bot feature?
whats the best thing for PS4
A PC? If you wish to stream properly - you need to hook it up to the PC, console streaming is very limited.
Play station @ebon forum
I know what a PS4 is 🙂
Yeah, i said that the best thing to have as a console streamer is a PC 🙂
Ok
I on my channel can't execute commands at the broadcaster level, there are already days I'm looking for a support. Can some dev help me?
Can Super Moderators see my Module settings and Revenue?? Thx for the help
Can a moderator fix this for a friend of mine please. He changed his Twitch account name.
New Twitch name: dporium```
How can I get the dock that allows me to change the title of the stream and game im playing
hello SE support our streamelements chat stats keep giving a 404 any reason why this may be happening?
accountid 60de7fe1cf2106499b0ac27e
its explained a bit up from that response you made that i respond to here. 🙂
this would be neat! its not under variations, but I am sure it's in the API as I have seen others have that variation. 🙂
oops realised you found help!
Hello! I've been having an issue where even though I have "show subscriber messages" enabled, whenever someone resubs, you can't see the message they added, however it is read out by TTS. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?
you can both in other softwares 🙂
in OBS studio you can add browser sources. 🙂
hey can someone help me
im doing emulate on streamelements but when i go to obs its not going off i have made a alert source with the url
hello
so i had a partner ship
and its been a week ive had no email for the payment
im scared
anyone can help?
did you save the overlay and did you add the browser source to obs?
it was asked about earlier, here's the answer "Hi. You get the payment portal invite during the 30 day period. It is not instant."
hi all. im using a rotator in streamelements, called alpha rotator. latest tip wont show the name evne using the correct [name] as the other fields are using.
would love some help, even if it means i have to go correct some html work. 🙂
yes i did both of those
the emulations show for me on the SE builder and in obs
it shows them to me in se builder but not obs
Is this the proper place to share an Idea?
dobbelt check its the correct browser source
iv copied n pasted it like 10 times
theres only one browser source for me
as a browser source in obs with the same resolution as your size in obs? (I run 1080p as i d rather scale down for the stream than up) and SE runs 1080p natively, so did you change the res in obs?
yh n still nothing
then i dont know
hopefully someone have a good idea
okay thanks for ur help anyone else got ideas
is there a way to stick an age limit for an account before the follower alert goes off ?
so i can prevent these account triggering the follower alert without disabling it entirely.
http://thecynicalkitty.com/s/210910210107.png
Here then the tipping settings tab https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings https://streamelements.is-serious.business/7u7aQYJ.gif
omg you can do this? will def do that

so it will block all alerts with that name or if the name has the letters in succesion somewhere?
anything that contains that added "word" will be effected by the visibility option.
or is it just for tips?
everything
because then it wont help for follws
Wait the tipping section affects followers 
yeah thats my question
Dont think it does...
XD
Whatever you want it to do.
Its annoying though as i use "off stream" as a blacklisted word so people can sent messages in confidential along with a tip, hiding the message wont work to block the follower alert 😦
Unfortunately there's no middle ground and this would be the closest to what you can use https://streamelements.is-serious.business/4ebYbTY.jpg
I think a age limiter on the follower alert system would be nice
i just checked... it wont disable the rotator at least
Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
this should be default from twitch side. but many of the bot accounts are older. they are oftern pre making t hem
@knotty mantle The Hoss ones are actively getting banned as quickly as there being made
yup
but "host00321" havent been caught by twitch yet
plus hoss_ownstwitch have been around for at least some days now
Hi 🙂 Few days ago I was reporting a problem to you about that I am not receiving stream report emails from StreamElements like before. One of your supporters refreshed the connection and told me that if after two stream I will not receive stat report emails I should contact you again. And here I am...I still don't receive SE stream reports to my email 😦 Can you help me, please?
@wanton jetty for next time you can upload the image directly here. 🙂
Is the "alerts muted" toggle on the public API... because it seems super fishy that Hoss only seems to be striking when alerts are enabled on SE...
so what is hoss? i just joined he discord and been seeing the name
I've been getting a lot of hoss follows today in particular. It's basically a bot that'll follow/unfollow quickly, I assume just to get the notification to pop up on stream
see:
I came here to see if there's a way to prevent alerts if a username matches a certain pattern 😂 and it seems like everyone's already talking about this haha. Gonna try the suggestion to ban it from the tips settings (#helpdesk-twitch message )!
its worse. use extensions on their profile to grab peoples IP and also lead hate raids. 🙂 @main needle for visibility
is there anyway to ban any with the first part of their name neem hoss to be banned or unable to follow in anyway?
The hate raids suck, but there's not much they can do with just an IP. IPs are pretty much public anyway.
@half mist seemingly alerts can be prevented via tip moderation
lol just had like 20 hoss people follow me!
Same. See the linked post in my message for the suggested way around it!
then why is people so scared if its mentioned? not knowing?
the two streams ive been hanging in today both kept getting followed by hoss in bulk
Correct, because it sounds like it's important (plus all the 'hacking' on TV/movies lol), but really, someone having your IP address is...not really a big deal
I guess im going to keep an eye on my dashboard for the night
better, then. mac adress is different tho xD
okay well... the tip method didn't work for me haha. I just got more follows + notifications after following those instructions
Is anyone having trouble just accessing the dashboard on the web?
every time i hit dashboard it just redirects to the main page
Meaning i can't edit anything
just pre-banned all these, thanks
let me try that
Try logging out, clear your cookies and cache, then log back in
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
it does it in incognito too
i can login fine, but then when i go to the dashboard it redirects to the main front page
Any reason that session data in labels in everything but latest tipper is all lower case?
what about in another browser?
are commends down again
same thing
Tip thing didnt work for me either :/
I'll be really specific, I can login to my own, but when either i go to my own dashboard or the dashboard of the person i manage, it just goes to the front page. There's an option to go to my dashboard, which just reloads the page. I have tried it on Google Chrome and microsoft edge and on incognito and nothing has worked so far, it was the same reaction.

You and them need to do that.
@knotty mantle I'm starting to keep track of the hoss bots here: https://github.com/brofar/hoss_bots if you're interested
stream elements is not in my chat but i am logged in
Logged out and logged back in, also cleared my cookies and it's still doing the same thing
I think they meant the person you manage has to do it too
probably, but once i'm on the main screen i can't even see my own dashboard
hopefully twitch is gonna keep track too and delete them as they are being made.. honestly if "hoss" is in the name, let someone having a finger on the suspension button and they will hopefully get stopped quicker than it is
if i manually type in the url /dashboard it pulls up a loading screen that never loads
Fixed
for visibility, still need answers on this one.
I've turned off my adblock as well
getting uh oh invalid auth token error message on obs
I have logged out/in on obs and on streamelements website
does SE's chat bot have a premade profanity filter like Streamlabs' does, or does it only apply to donation messages?
Yeah so idk, I can no longer edit anything on my streamlabs dashboard because i can't get to it or the one i manage
What's the time period that you cleared browsing history?
i just cleared all of it
I understand ya'll are busy so can I get a message when there is a fix or more steps you'd like me to take?

Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
What part of OBS is giving you that message?
There is a Spam filter here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-spam-filters
I cannot get to the dashboard to give you that information
if i click the link it redirects me to the main page
"open in stream elements overlay editor"
after I press that button
i get the error
At the top right, do you see your picture with a dropdown?
I did see this but as far as I can tell this is just spam, with no slur / profanity filtering beyond entering custom banned words one by one, is this accurate?
yes
Can you click that, go to profile, then go back to the top right and use this menu to get to the dashboard?
If i do it that way, it loads up https://streamelements.com/dashboard and then just shows a loading screen that never loads
if i refresh the page it just takes me to the main page
Yes that one is custom. For a automatic filter, the settings for tips also has a profanity filter: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings. Is there something specific you are trying to moderate?
Let em see if I can take a look, can you share your channel name?

Hello, I would like to ask how can I change my Se.Pay? I think I wrote a bad iban and I want to change it so that the money really comes to me
I was hoping that there would be a way to apply the donation filter to chat messages in general using the SE bot as a mod, but if not I'll just have to stick with Twitch's automod
you can dm me if that helps
@cerulean osprey, posting suspicious links will result in not being able to post again.

I tested it on my end, and it loaded up normally for me. I know that this can happen if you try to get to the managed account, so when you cleared the history did you try both dashboards?
Are you trying to just edit the overlays?
clicking any dashboard message comes up with just the main screen or the loading screen. There's no firewall with my wifi and my adblock is turned off.
theres a bunch of 'hoss00312' bots constantly following the channel, how do i make SE stop announcing it
Hello, I wasn't sure which chat this needed to go in. I'm working on getting an animated theme added. I have the browser overlay. But how do I get the animation to work? I got it from the Stream Elements gallery.
@foggy heart yes
I keep getting locked out of SE Pay despite going through the support system to verify myself 4 months ago 😦
I also haven't received a response for my last ticket so I am just sitting without payment.
Hi, i added Spleis (norwegian crowdfunding) to be allowed to post tipping in my streamelements, but now it pops up twice. is there any way to make it only pop up once? or revert access to it?
Hello! I'm a new Streamer, can someone assist me with a question please? If i add a Store Redemptions to one page, will it apply to all "Scenes" or do i have to manually apply them to each and everyone Scene? & How many? Eg: If i have 10 Redeem Codes, do i need to add 10 Store Redemptions to that Scene?
any support people about this time of night?
I have a viewer that is spamming follows on my channel every like hour or so using different username host00312, makes another channel with Covid, not a bot, dad, lllllllllllll Is there anyway to block em off or something?

hey my twitch chatstats arent working after i changed my username, the old name was JxydenTV/Jaydensmission and my current new name is JxydenHG
I have streamelements filter setup - testing it works - but in practice it fails
I got spam followed by this bot tonight and the filter SHOULD have stopped it, but it didnt
Let me take another look at this and get back to you
What animation isn't working, and is it not working in the editor or in OBS?
I would advise doing this though a Web Browser and not through OBS, let us know if you get the same message there

I'm trying to use the Forcefield animated theme. I have the browser overlay for all the scenes. But I did a test run and the scenes aren't animated. They just look like still images.
theres bots following me, is there a way to make SE stop annoucing it based on some blaclist?
hey so i have a name filter set up but it's not working and these damn hoss follows keep getting announced by streamelements in the chat, if i copy and paste the name into the filter check it says it works so why does the bot still announce the follow in chat??
i get follow spammed by pretty much the same bot name with slight variation
same here lmao
that hoss guy
where do i set a name filter
spam filters
check username instead of messages
or maybe i need to do messages as well to include the bot's own messages
gonna try also checking messages for now since support usually takes a day to get back
i only have caps, link, emote, paragraph, symbol and banned word protection
not username protection
yeah banned word
that bans words from the chat
not someone's username from the announcement
ah i see
it has a scan section username
he has hundreds of bots
theyre all named 'hoss00312' and then endless variations
need the ability to block with a wildcard like hoss00312*
not sure if that would work
yeah but if you block the first part it's always the same, either a variant of hoss or host
I have this setup. As I said - this works 100% when testing, but when I'm live - it doesn't work. I still get spam bots
are we all here for the exact same reason lmao
(i'll be back in 10)
looks like it
i don't believe asterisks work for that filter
could be wrong, for mine i just put the part of the name that's consistent and it finds it even in the names with numbers after
if we enable the regular expression checkbox then inputting /hoss/g should find any name/word with 'hoss' in it and block it
or just /hoss/ really that should work
i'm not even sure what the regular expression thing means i just left it
regex
a sequence of characters that specify a search pattern, it can be really powerful
ill just add /hoss/ and enable regex and see if that helps
if you just type hoss without enabling regex it finds any username with those letters in that order, the filter test works
either way
With the banned words filter, you can restrict words from being posted in your chat.
it wont stop the follow announcement regardless, its not made for that
hello I have a question. My OBS Stream Elements Alerts are not coming up at all. can anybody help with this?
but it's successfully blocking the follower notification
so why not the chat message
yeah there's no alert for it but the bot puts it in chat still it's annoying
just copy my settings from my screenshot if you want that part to work
we'll see if i get another follow tonight to see if enabling messages works
thanks thats all i needed
i dont have the SE bot type it in chat i struggle to keep up with chat anyway
back
One of the staff told me to put "*" before and after - again, this worked when we tested it, but it didnt when I went live 😦
what I migth do is a script on Touchportal to detect the username, then block/ban/ignore
I think your right - you cant stop follows
Hi all! Is there any possible way I can set up a custom SE alert when somebody donates to my Ko-fi page? Ko-fi has their own alerts but they're not very exciting, I'm wondering if there's a way I could trigger a different alert somehow? Maybe like with IFTTT or something similar?
Is it the same behavior in the editor and OBS, or just one of them?
Do you have a ticket number or anything i can use to look that up?
Are you looking to block alerts, or more specifically things in chat?
Block Followers with spesific words in their usernames
just had a look at Touchportal, it doesnt seem to "on event" follower alerts
Hi, not sure if this is right place to ask but my streamelements chat box and feed doesn't pop up when I open obs anymore
no idea why
is there a way to blacklist names from alerts? i had like 30 different hoss00312_xyz accounts following my channel today, i ended up disabling follow alert but i missed so many real follows because of that. Would be great if could exclude all users from alert that have hoss in their nickname
users - aka Hoss bot
i see i had the same problem in my stream
Everyone is having the problem, it is crazy
you using regex wrong if that is what you want to do. you have check the mark for regex and use this
. matches any character * makes it 0 or more occurences followed by hoss and then again . any char * 0 or more occurences
but this will ban anyone with hoss in their name i think
@foggy heart sorry for delayed response. It use to work, but after I got affiliate it stopped working. It works on the site, but it would be easier to do it via the client
🤷🏻♂️
this is this custome regex?
I dont think it will ban the user with those words in its name UNTIL it types somthing
because just * is not regular regex
I've done all the same tests you have - it works - it picks up the word in the user name. But when yur live, the bot still follows and the filter does nothing.
this is wrong,i tested it and it doesnt work. what i posted is proper regex and works
ok but mine also works because it uses regex
exactly -im agreeing both our methods work
but only when "testing"
it does not work they way you think when live
yea probably
the bot needs to type somthing before the filter kickes in
so we are screwed til twitch fixes the issue?
howevere, this is why I want to speek with staff or a dev - im 95% sure stream elements can stop this bot, by utilising the same method they use when triggering a follow alert.
their method of follow alerts - Detects when a user follows, grabs the user name, then presends the graphic.
why cant this be used thus -> Detect follow, grab username, check filter - ban or allow
whenever I press the start streaming button on obs i don't go live on twitch.
anyone know why?
how do I get there again I forget. I am that dumb.
"Settings"
usually it's the right bottom corner
a button above the "Exit"
I found it just haven't been to my settings in a while
Looks like it is. Neither the editor or obs shows the animation
nvm, I've found it
hey guys, how do i remove the @ when people do shoutout and accidentally put @? ive seen it done on other channels
how can i put my overlay on my twitch while im streaming on ps4?
like im streaming twitch on ps4 and wanna put the overlay on from my laptop how do i do that?
@honest moat ⤵️
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
Hi guys, still newish to streamelements - but I have a quick question regarding chat variable: ${<start>:<end>}
Does this force stream elements to start a second chat comment after the first? And how would you put Sentence 1. And then Sentence 2. In the variable?
just very new to how to use the variables, with caveman understanding.
hey does streamelements work with streamlabs
We do not
ok good to know thanks
use $(user) instead of $(1) or $(touser) and it will not keep the @ but it also will only work for users that have raided or watched for at least 10min
hi guys how would I do the timezone command for wisconsin? ❤️

hello guys. could anyone tell me how a moderator can edit those "goals" overlays in some twitch channels? I've seen some moderators using a command like !eg xx number and then !sg xx number and it changes the overlays in the streamer's screen.

Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Hey so currently Im having an issue with a follow bot. Same name goes by hoss. Is there a way to block that type of bot?
Hello. I have an alert overlay that was previously working but after I changed the video resolution, its not working. Its set as 1920 x 1080 and centered the widget. Its also at the top of my OBS sources as a browser and the address is correct. Not sure why it stopped working
also when I emulate, the video blurry and has a white filter
in fact after I set the video alerts to fade in and fade out, they all disappeared
i think the fade in fade out function screwed up the video
this place looks deserted
You can add the name in the blocked words filter for our bot and also in the tipping settings. In both locations you can add the name as hoss* - this should catch the name with all of its variations

@raven wharf Hey, I saw your tweet. Since we can't reply to you via our support twitter I will reply here:
You can use the chat bot's banned words filter and tipping settings -> tip moderation to block any name or word you want. In this case you can add "hoss*" to the filters. The asterix works as a "catch everything after the word".
Same thing I just suggested to the user above.
Hi, how do I enable my chat stats? They don't seem to be working. Do I have to mod the streamelements bot first?
@mortal yoke ⤵️
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).
Thanks! I didn't mod the bot previously. Will see if chat stats works later
In order to block anything from hoss (or any other bot follower wave) appearing, you can setup the tipping moderation (this affects all alerts - follows, subs, cheers, tips, hosts, raids and their messages) and the banned words filter.
You can find the tipping moderation settings here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings -> tipping settings -> tip moderation
You can find the banned words filter here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-spam-filters -> banned words -> when you add a new group, you can specify it to check the username rather then message.
In both locations make sure to add hoss* - the asterix works as as "catch the word + everything after it".

Thank you! ^^
When i fill out the account closure form and complete it just backs me out and doesnt delete the account. What do i do?
i need to create a new account
Can someone help?
Why do you need to create a new account?
I just saw and you've placed 5 closure requests just today and 10 yesterday.
I would advise to stop using the closure form as the devs when they are next on shift, will look at your request and delete the account.
Ok sorry about that. I thought it was glitch.
Hi - just to check on the advice above on how to ban the username of that annoying bot - Can I just check am I correct that timeout length should be set to -1 or am I incorrect?
⏫ To answer above -1 will ban rather than timeout 🙂
yes, -1 is ban 0 is timeout/delete message
i would suggest removing your 1 phrase in that image and changing 2 to (?i)hoss with the check box clicked. this will enable regEx and ignore (?i) the case, so if username hoSS or HoSs it will still trigger.
Hey Guys, I renamed and I can't access to my chat stats

hey guys, i need some help customizing my sub alert variations, everything seems to work fine except when numbers need to be shown, such as a resub streak or how many community gifts somone gave, what happens is the alert simply doesn't show a number even if {amount} is determined

ezaalespamujejenda
fixed
Thank You!
which overlay?
do i give you the literal name that's saved on my accont?
yes
barra-1366-768(16-9)
hmm, is it the custom font?
because trying to preview it for me shows no numbers
hmm maybe?
yeah looks like the custom font, but i don't know why since photoshop and after effects have no issue displaying numbers with this font
question does the moderation for bad words on tip settings work with names? I ask cause someone made there name a not so friendly one and tipped $1 at a time, i mean money is good but not if it hurts the comunity
Text size comes to mind
if you use tip moderation in the tipping settings, it will affect all alerts with both name and message.
Example if their name is "assassin" - guess what part of the name will be caught by the tip moderation default filter 😄
idk what to do about it really, gave it a massive size and still no numbers so far
i honestly don't know. If the custom font is not working properly, then something is maybe missing from it
is there a way for me to show only the numbers in another font?
without custom css that is lol
The only way is to have a 2nd alert widget on top of this one, but the formatting will be off, when you have a long name
the number will not match with the name's length properly basically
Hi, my Chat Stats is showing 404 page not found ....
My user name is larshagrid.
So regarding hyperlinks on Twitch and giving permits to StreamElements, I haven't found the right balance where I can just permit Twitch clips only. I gather I would have to permit Twitch to allow hyerlinks, is there a way via Twitch's end that I can just permit clips or not? Or can I resolve this via StreamElements with what hyperlinks can and can not be permitted
I still require assistance, please.

Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
Hello! I'm a new Streamer, can someone assist me with a question please? If i add a Store Redemptions to one page, will it apply to all "Scenes" or do i have to manually apply them to each and everyone Scene? & How many? Eg: If i have 10 Redeem Codes, do i need to add 10 Store Redemptions to that Scene?
in the bot filters on our side you can add *.twitch.tv/* as an allowed link - this should allow the bot to not time out anything that ist https://twitch.tv/clip_link or https://clips.twitch.tv/clipname
Hi guys, I have a problem with the allertboxes. The notices of the subscriptions do not arrive in live but those of the new followers do. Why?
each scene is its own enclosed...well scene where it needs its own sources. You can duplicate one source and paste as reference to a different scene, which can prevent duplicate sound effects.
And no you don't need to add 10 sources for 10 codes
its handled by 1 widget

Thats the best comment to receive, imo 
As for the Hoss invasion, the pinned message should help you for any new hoss invasions, as it seems he is still doing the rounds randomly

Media request causes a changing delay - is there any way to get video and sound directly as source into the stream instead of the overlay?
Not really. I was more on bot behavior
ah, then look up in the board if there is a similar thing to your suggestion - if not, throw it in
what do you mean by "changing delay"?
I need to put a sound delay of about 400ms onto the overlay until it fits... after some time, I need 500... etc...
Wanna sync up my audio to the music (drumming)... If it was constant, it would work for me... but it is not...
I could describe an easy programming solution in case you want a solution that easily works
Hello lovely Stream elements awesome users!
Is there by any chance, a way for me to setup a filter, so certain usernames does not get announced when they follow? 🙂 Thank you!

Hi, I just wanted to ask if it would be possible to setup chatstats for my channel ? channelname: PepoPopcorn_
delete your current overlay with the media request widget and make a fresh overlay and add the media request in it
I'm too poor to buy food for my cat... That's why I don't have a cat...
fixed
I already did a seperate Overlay for media request
thanks 
Is there no solution to get the audio and video directly as sources into obs?
No
the media request widget is the only way, to utilize the media request dashboard
but if you are still getting the delay even after making a fresh overlay, then check this:
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
okay thank you 🙂 I'll try 🙂
alright - just added my filter idea 🙂
genius.
@prisma relic SE has the most data. So there could be rules like if a bot follows more than 10 channels in 10 minutes, it's known spam
it's an open Twitch endpoint 😉
it would be an interesting idea to flag users as spam in general
that way we could save many tears to smaller users
What source must I add?
The browser sources are actually not relevant here. We have that information integrated in OBS.Live in the activity feed dock, this is where you change the title and game etc.
okay thank you
alguma ajuda br ?

Hey, jemand da der deutsch kann mir helfen kann bei einbauen eine Stream Overlays ich bekomme das nicht hin

Welcome to the helpdesk! The regular helpdesk channels are in English but we do provide multi-language support in the following channels: #🇩🇪︱deutsch | #🇫🇷︱français | #🇪🇸︱español | #🇵🇹︱português | #🇳🇱︱nederlands | #🇮🇹︱italiano | #🇵🇱︱polski | #🇨🇳︱中文語言服務區-chinese | #🇯🇵︱日本語-japanese | #🇭🇺︱magyar | #🇰🇷︱한국어-korean | #🇹🇭︱ไทย-thai | #🇷🇺︱русский | #🇺🇦︱українська | #🇨🇿︱czech
in SE you copy the link to the overlay and add is a browser source. 🙂 let me correct.. you find the event list or the update info things for twitch on the SE website, pop it out, copy the link and add to obs as dock.
browser source is used in docks.
Yes, but with OBS.Live this is not relevant anymore.
but he was talking about obs docks, wasnt he?
If he is using OBS Studio - then yes. In OBS.Live those docks are changed and ours function in a slightly different manner.
🙂
Is there a way to block terms for a nick so that when that nick follows the channel it doesn't appear in the overlay notification? Everyone should already be aware of the attacks caused by "hossXXXX". So I want to block the term "hoss" from showing up in notifications.
see first pinned message 🙂
Thanks
Hello, on the mediarequest playlist, can we make it play in a loop or the music must be deleted?
Looping the request is not possible unless you create the video with the loop and request that
I changed my twitch username a few months ago and noticed just now that the bot still considers the old username (Angel_0) as the broadcaster. Plus the stats page is still under that old username, and the profile page also shows it
@ripe cloud ⤵️
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).
how can I do that exactly ?
By uploading a looped video or using a looped video, we do not have a loop function
I already did 1 and 2 - I looked if someone else had the problem and ended up finding something with those 2 same steps
old name: Angel_0
new one: CelestialPanda_
Hey, my SE.Pay withdrawal still has not come into my account, any idea why?
do you think that one day will have happened?
Currently no plans to add such a feature.
When was the withdrawal initiated?
8th sept
hey, how do you make the "event cup" that fills up with donos, subs etc to only display things happened this stream?
Chatstats are fixed.
Please give it 1-2 business days, might get stuck over the weekend.
Okay nw, I'll wait till like Wednesday next week and reappear if nothing has come through c: thank you !!
Thanks! I'll try again step 1 and 2 to fix the user list
it might be practical to add it though.. (sorry I messed on the old message)
please and thank you
Not really, the system is designed for media requests, not as a player with extended player features. Like i said, you can always create a looped version yourself and use that video.
so do you have a media player in the same style to advise me? because creating a video to loop it for hours no thanks.
hey im still waiting to get my chatstats fixed my username is JxydenHG
Not in our toolset, you can use every player out there that has a looping function, even VLC has it
hello !. could anyone tell me how a moderator can edit those "goals" overlays in some twitch channels? I've seen some moderators using a command like !eg xx number and then !sg xx number and it changes the overlays in the streamer's screen.
Those are custom commands created for each streamer individually.
Since there is a huge variety in overlays, widgets and ways to manipulate them - you need to find what works for you
i see thx
How can I fix my audio it’s a snowball ice? It keeps making this super loud alien summon noise lol and when I watch my gameplay it’s very echoey
In OBS studios and what do you use to capture gameplay from the elgato so you can edit and upload it?
Is there a chat strictly for the app? I like the app so far; it's better than the actual twitch app, but I don't see where to add overlays. Don't tell me I have to go to the streamelements site to add overlays and widgets cuz that would defeat the purpose of having a mobile app.
Wow i just realised one thing which propably Twitch security team should deserve a proper yell out for.. How in the world doesnt Twitch require you to fill in a captcha code when you register?
No wonder the site is riddled with bots, and especially now with the hate raids going on everywhere..
You have to go to the website and edit the PURPLE STATIC overlay assuming you meant to say StreamElements and also #helpdesk-mobile for further inquires, we can help you there for specific mobile app questions.
Oh, yes. I'll edit my message. Streamlabs is what I usually use

Hi,
I was wondering if someone could help me with the credits widget? Is there a way I can add a Mod spot to have their names appear at the end of the stream? I appreciate any help you can provide. 🙂
I want to close my account by logging in with Trovo and I want to open it in my main account since it does not allow me to open because I get a message that the account has already been claimed. can you help me?

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
Hi, I was wondering if streamelements only starts counting watchtime until after I add it to my chat as mod or if I set something up incorrectly. Also if I'm trying to do watchtime of a specific user and it's not working, did I do the command wrong?
@pallid vapor ⤵️
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.
thank you!
hey on obs.live, where do i put the links for the overlays
Add them as browser sources @lusty lynx that is core OBS studio.
this happens
am i supposed to set the width and height according to the 1080p resolution?
Typically yes.
SE overlays are by default 1080p
Change the properties of the source to 1920x1080
changed my name on twitch and now my bot is not working

Is there a way to switch the chat to emote only as soon as I stop streaming?
Type /emoteonly in your chat when you're done streaming.
Automatically? Not that I'm aware.
If you have a Streamdeck or software version, you could make a button.
You could make a command or keyword with the response being /emoteonly so it's quicker to type but automatic upon ending stream isn't possible with any bot I'm aware of unless you have a custom coded bot.
help?
You should just be able to delete the webcam image in the overlay.
that's what I'm currently doing. I was more looking for a trigger for the bot
Ah, yeah. Unfortunately nothing native across the bot sphere that I am aware of. It would need a custom solution.
cant, its made in the background
Ah
You could put chat there? But editing the base image wouldn't be possible unless you had the image file.
Or put something over it?
uhhh
what exactly?
the chat is also fixed there
the small image is supposed to be the facecam and the big one the chat
but they are in the background and i cant delete it
Another image.
Make it blend. Unless you have the source image, you won't be able to delete it so would have to be creative with it.
It seems to be baked into the image so without the source, you'd have to work around it.
You could put a clip compilation in the big box and chat in the small box.
You could add another image layer on top of the small box that blocks it and blends well.
You could put an emote dancing in the box, etc.
thats actually not a bad idea
how would i do that
Upload a dancing GIF to SE then add an image widget to your overlay and place it there.
Images are under the static options of the overlay editor, clicking on the blue button.
Add that widget, add the image, place it properly and now you're dancing.
i got the gif, how do i upload it?
Sorry to bother you my chatstats aren't working for my twitch channel I wonder if anyone can help?
You change your name @ornate ferry ?
Add the image like I described above and you'll see an upload button.
no not that i know of
Ok so your Twitch name has always been what? Don't send a link, just tell me the name.

Is this where I complain about Stream Elements Follow Bot Attacks?\
Since you created the account? Exactly this?
yes
i think so
was a long time ago
Please explain?
Well I'm going to have somebody press a button to make your chatstats work so if there are any other names of yours that might have data, this would be the time.
So if you're confident that this is the only name you've used, I'll push it up.
yea pretty confident
Sounds good, I'll tag you when I have news.
I am noticing for a few weeks not that the attackers... are pumping stream elements after every broadcast
Pumping, how do you mean?
Well StreamElements tracks your follows on Twitch and uses that for alerts.
So if you get follow botted, Elements will pick that up.
But Elements doesn't have anything to do with follow bots.
@weak delta got it
There ya go! Teamwork makes the dream work.
lol. yeah the "attackers" are utilizing "elements" to load up the dashboard welcome to inject the obs with fake follows
that is the proper flow
the door works both ways
Elements reports it on your activity feed and if enabled, plays an alert.
But the bad actors don't do anything through Elements.
im not saying that elements is doing this
Elements is just reporting the follows you get on Twitch.
Until Twitch responds, I can reccomend either hiding follows in your Elements activity feed and disabling your follow alert in your alert box and disabling chat alerts in your bot if you have it enabled.
But Elements is just reporting the information it gets from your Twitch account.
@ornate ferry you're good to go
it happens even when i have un-parted elements from the channel. i even banned element for science still happens
tyvm ;D
The bot may be parted but if Elements and your Twitch account are still linked, it will see your events.
i completely parted elements, for science
Long live science
You submitted a closure request?
im not worried about the backend part of this
streamelements will receive all events directly from twitch, if you get a follow we receive it and show it in your activity feed/alerts and all that, the bot is something different
if you dont want to get that data you have to either close your account or remove the streamelements integration from your twitch connections
Hello, my follower goal count is not in sync with my actual twitch followers. Is there a way to fix this?
elements is the only one with the logs of the events
@red osprey ⤵️
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.
Thank you
bots will get removed from your twitch account after a while, if someone follows you and then unfollows you or its removed we will still show it, we have no way of knowing if someone is no longer your follower since we dont get those events
yeah thanks
so is this where i complain about stream elements being utilized for follow botting
get it
not sure why you're getting that idea, we get data from twitch, twitch doesn't get data from us
now I am confused
Lol is this a name change/ chat stats request?
no, I was just following the rambling of Eliphas_Levi and I do not get it
Lol correlation is not causation
is there a way i can make the obs overlay literally overlay on my screen?
so i can see donations and chat?
If it’s the top layer in your sources you should be seeing all of the events and alerts
yeah
too broke to buy another one
If you're only rocking with a single screen, I think the easiest way to see both your events and chat is to run the StreamElements app in companion mode on your Android phone.
There are other solutions but I think that's the easiest.
The mobile app has it's own overlay but you don't need to put anything within it.
You just need to see the event log and chat which it shows both in companion mode.

Hi I had a name change on Twitch from "faucetanus" to "fauwcet" and was just hoping I could have chat stats adjusted? Thanks!
Hey, I'm having issues logging in and accessing my Dashboard at streamelements.com . It'll let me log in but any click on "My Dashboard" just loops me back to the same page and it doesn't work in several browsers. I've tried clearing cookies in which case it'll log me in to the dashboard but then immediately kick me back to the same base page. Any ideas?
I'm going to request it
Thanks! No rush
Did you change your nickname recently? Either way, try to go to this page and login to it again: https://streamelements.com/logout
I didn't change my nickname recently, no. I've tried logging in through that page several times. I'm unable to go past the first page and unable to access the dashboard for other streamers to which i've been granted access
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
You and them need to do that.
Hmm, this happened to me when one specific streamer I had access had issues with SE and I had to ask him to logout and login again
I'll have to try again later then. Thanks y'all
Hey there! My bot doesn't respond when I try to write one of the chat commands. I did a log out and cleaned my cache and logged in again and it didn't work, as well I tried with part/join channel. but as well no luck
any ideas what can I do more?
@rain field ⤵️
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! Working as it should! Thanks a lot! Have a good day!
Hey. Is it possible to make the bot use the /host command to host others? I tried it but the bot just sends the command in chat and nothing happens.
What do you think?
I don’t know of a way to do that, but twitch has a few autohost options and you can always host from the Twitch mobile app
Thanks for the fix on the name change, there's no way to keep your old stats of messages you typed in other channels, I assume? It's ultimately inconsequential, but just curious because I've spent a lot of time chatting in other streams, ha
Yeah I wanted the bot to send the command because it's a channel which I'm not an editor. But thanks for the help anyways
Unfortunately, with your name change, as far as I'm tracking, it doesn't update in other channels, I use too many commas, but yeah, just your personal channel chatstats.
Thanks again
They can't really edit chatstats in other channels like that so if you changed your name, you might appear twice in other channels chatstats.
Yeah, that's what is going to happen, I've seen it with other people and was just curious if perhaps they hadn't come to the Discord and gone through this process after the name change
Appreciate the insight!
hello could somebody help me please StreamElements isn't doing my commands in chat?
What's your channel? No links, just name.

@weak delta ok thanks
@weak delta i haven't done a custom bot name and yes i'm using OBS.Live
Ok so go into the settings of the event list, click the hamburger icon.
Verify it is disabled then because I am seeing it enabled.
Go go your chat and TYPE /mod StreamElements
Then log out of OBS.Live by click the StreamElements icon on top of OBS
Log back in
Type /mod StreamElements
done
You see what I wrote in your chat?
Hi, not sure if this is right place to ask but my streamelements chat box and feed doesn't pop up when I open obs anymore
no idea why

Is there a way to filter certain users from triggering a follow alert?
I need help with SE: sponsorships it say I don't have 2h gameplay for a game while I did play the game for 2h? Help
@visual hemlock pinned messages
Doesn't that just censor the username? Or if it blocks the whole name does the alert not show up at all?
hi there
where can i find help merging my twitch and youtube accounts on SE? I already have Twitch claimed by SE, and YouTube also claimed by SE... how do i combine them into one account if they are already claimed?
@weak delta thanks for the help
I'm not a mod but from what I've read before, you can't. Extremely annoying, I have to manually copy each command and alert for each platform myself :/
If I'm wrong I'd love to know!
Hello
hi
im trying to change follower sound on streamelements overlays but the original sound stays any help
My kappagen has stopped working since I changed my twitch username. Can't get it working
Hello word ♥️
Finally here!
hi! i would like to know if i install obs.live in the same folder as regular obs i lose all my scenes and settings, thanks!
Hello, i tried uploading a custom .gif as an sub alert, the thing is: it's a loop, but when i test, it starts playing from the middle, instead of looping from the beggining. Does someone know how to fix this?
Hello friends! Does anyone have good info on creating a customer !quotes command that will allow me to end the quote with the ${game} and ${title} variable, then add it to the quotes DB?
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS. You won't lose anything by installing it on top of OBS.
