hello, I am looking to merge accounts, I accidently linked my youtube to a different account
oof
right, I can't believe I did that
lol
@cursive timber There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
that works I just opened it so there is nothing on there
how do i put the overley in the stream
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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
what is JWT token?
so you dont have the overlays in obs?
@cursive timber You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.

When I have enabled stream elements it isn’t in my live chat
@median zenith To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements as a Comment Moderator at https://www.youtube.com/comment_management
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
When I copy the URL into the moderators box I save it and it isn’t there it doesn’t show that stream elements is a mod
what URL in what moderator box?
oh i got confused and thinking this was #helpdesk-twitch 
first time for everything
I would suggest to try and add the channel as a mod from your PC
as it might not be accepting the URL from your phone
I don’t have a pc
Do u know why it isn’t working
As mentioned I would suggest to try it from a computer
But since you posted a screenshot from your phone, I assume the form is not accepting the link because you are typing it from your phone
My friends have done it though phone so I do not see why it isn’t working
In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.

is there a way for me to use custom CSS on premade widgets?
I used an eventlist here, but it doesn't have the kind of look I want and I can't find the "open editor" button anywhere for this widget
I tried using a custom widget but I just end up with tons of things meant for twitch and not youtube as in raids, hosts, bits and so on
like... none of this is for YT
the idea was to have something similar to this eventlist, but I can't do that with without custom CSS for YT
this is the best I can make it look, but there are still a lot of things I don't enjoy and I'm not able to change them
the spacing is different for each and every name or action that happens
Hey, How do I change my BOT Name for youtube live stream ?

Hello how do you edit the social media rotator to your socials?
Edit the names in the settings.
In stream elements I am using the stream label for subscriber counts. When I place this on my layout it puts [count] in the label. I was expecting this to show my total subs of 102 but instead it is showing 32. I assume this is for a shorter time period than lifetime. My question is how to get this to show my lifetime subs. I assume I need to replace the word "count" with another word but I haven't figured out what I need to use. Please mention me in the response. Thank you.
Total subscribers widget.
Hey I'm trying to get back into Youtube streaming and when I started streaming from OBS.live, it created some new stream rather than using the event I had set up on the Youtube Live manager

@smoky heath F5 and then click "Stop" in top right corner. You cannot accept invitation in a moment you are managing another account
i am not managing another account right now, as you can see on screenshot, i am view my own account @normal tulip
There is a glitch that it looks like that when you try to accept a new invitation, this is why I wrote you the F5 part 😉
I tried it mate . F5 and viewing my own account..
i got it
looks like because i am opening stream element on other browser
i use mozila, opera n chrome
on other browser im still on another account
i close all browser and F5, fixed now and i am connected to friend's overlays.. thank you so much for helping @normal tulip
You're welcome. Glad we sorted it out 
I have a problem, I want to close one account to connect two channels on one account, but it pops up that I enter the wrong username

@teal mural Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190

Hey I'm trying to find how to set bot commands to play audio+gifs or webm for that matter
does anyone know a good tutorial? I can't seem to find any info
Not available for YouTube.
I'm having difficulty trying to set my stream elements account up with youtube. It is currently set for twitch but anytime I try to link my youtube it says channel is already claimed. I'm okay with disconnecting the twitch from it if necessary to connect my youtube. Just can't figure out what I need to do, to do so.

The Subscriber Goal is showing the wrong subscriber count. I have a youtube channel and i have linked to my streamelements account.
@fair mortar 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 loose followers/subs
AND The Youtube Subscriber count is also wrong.
@fair mortar 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.

Hi, I also have a problem on Youtube, the people who give Subscribe are not saved and they keep spamming my alerts, like the same people give me subscribe on every live. I think you need a save for a certain period in a database. photo album -> https://imgur.com/a/Ne15cuB

@versed tangle 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
the stream overlay is not coming
hello any one can reply me
Try to readd it to OBS. Open preview from "My overlays" section and then copy URL.
i did that but also not coming
Does it work in your web browser?
no
So it is displayed in overlay editor but not in preview nor in OBS?
Can you check if you followed instructions as described here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5VzXjqAsjk ?
This is the full description of our overlays system which should provide you a to z how to get your overlays url for OBS.
This is the way you should prepare your overlays.
OK. So go to that overlay and click "preview"
It should display you the overlay URL, you can open it in browser
i did like that
Or... step back... Is it displayed in overlay editor?
means i dont understand
Go to that URL and click Edit: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays Like on screenshot
i clicked after that
OK. so when you click "Edit" you can see your overlay correctly, right?
yes ican see
OK. now in top right corner click "Preview"
yes
OK. Now copy the URL of that preview
Go to OBS
Create new browser source
Dimensions: 1920x1080
Paste the url as browser source URL
And you should be OK
So wait. With that URL you see that in Browser, and when you pasted it into OBS it doesn't work?
Are you sure you have copied the whole URL?
yes
Can you videoshare me, so I could take a look on that?
You can also check that to make sure if you are doing it right: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDvLynUqXI4
i did right but also it is not working

So I am new to YouTube and stream elements and tried to use the chat bot in my stream and for some reason it’s not there. I have it enabled. Do you have to wait a little bit then it will show up.
Hello, I have a question about this streamelements bot .. I have a listener as a moderator and I also added commands that are also in the nightbot but because I can't import streamlabs alerts why?

Hey all! New here and just have a quick question... I can't seem to find the "Rolling Credits" widget anywhere. I'm wondering if this just isn't a feature for YouTube broadcasters? Or perhaps I'm just missing something obvious?
Thank you I fixed the problem
I had my youtube channel linked to my mixer profile, but now that mixer is gone i can't unlink it and would like to link it to my twitch profile. how would I go about doing that?
@dry vessel There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
whatever, mixer is dead so not like i am going to need any of that stuff anyway
You'd lose your YouTube stuff too.
i can easily add it back, all i had on there were some overlays
i can easily set it back up
it was linked to my mixer account but now that there is no login for mixer with streamelements i cant do anything about it
it wont let me close it anyway
tried adding it to my twitch account and says it is already claimed
so how do i remedy that

I cannot add my youtube is what i am saying, it will not let me because i had it linked under my mixer account and i cannot unlink it because there is no longer a login for mixer
Hi! I have a question. I put my streams to ultra low latency, but I would like to know the best settings in obs so I can get a 3-4 second delay anyone know?
@coral thorn There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterwards, but not a list of settings.
Thank you 
I mean. I was talking about delay settings but ok
Hello do you have a discord bot so it announces when am live
We do not.
Do you know if any
What does minimum amount mean on overlay?
Can you provide some context?
@rocky tusk Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.
Im tryna make a overlay for YT and i dont have a clue what minimum amount means
Tip alert?
@rocky tusk 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.
Does it mean how many times it will pop up?
Yes.

Hello. First time trying to stream. I've got things setup. But, I'm viewing my stream (youtube) from both my desktop and phone and the quality is horrific. Very latent. The audio is very very distorted. I've watched several different videos on youtube for help in settings, but I'm getting no where.
the above is a repost from the post in the OBS community server
@maiden leaf There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterwards, but not a list of settings.
Thank you 
Also this
@maiden leaf Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
Log file doesn't show anything
PC looks good
as in hardware specs
its best to ask in the OBS discord
thank you, @lime walrus
I tried what KeiZar said, but I'm still having the same problems. Very very choppy. And the audio was like rrrrrough.
Log file doesn't show anything
I did post in the other server as well, I may just go to bed and see if there is anything there for me tomorrow
as in doesn't show any problem with OBS
hmm. very strange. I've also run various network connection tests, and I'm getting 260 down and 29 up.
I got it fixed. Literally just ran StreamElements as Admin
Is there a way to set the game category you wanna stream to through OBSLive?
@frozen dune There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
Nah, not the title. I mean setting the specific game.
If not then it's no big deal. I can always change it through the website manually but it would be nice if the option to select the specific game was there.
Hi how Is going
I have a trouble
I don't get my sponsors on the panel
Only super chats AND stickers
Hey, friends. 2 questions:
First, I am trying to display the YouTube chat in the StreamElements overlay editor. Is there a way to do this?
I do not see the pre-set option as there is in Twitch, so I assume there's something custom? Thank you in advance.
Second question I have, do custom google fonts work or are they broken right now?
As you can see in the screenshot, the words AGGRESSIVELY AVERAGE TRYHARD are two different fonts.
The SE overlay editor shows one font (TEKO) which is what I want, but it displays another font in OBS (Helvetica).
Is this a known issue with YouTube or am I missing something?
@sinful dew YouTube cannot display the chat in the overlay.
@sinful dew Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/
Custom Fonts
Steps:
- Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
- In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
- Enable Custom Font
- Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually
C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.

In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.

I have added it to moderator earlier only
Are you streaming to a private/unlisted stream?
I made a simple OBS overlay for streaming on YouTube and attempted to add the browser source. It refuses to show up on my laptop, but it does work on my desktop. Can anyone tell me why this could be?
@misty yacht Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).
If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10
For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
Hi, When new person subscribes to the channel, name does not refresh on the overlay. What to do??
@summer folio Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190
A lil confused here, Lemme give you a scenario and hopefully that will sort this out.
I have a channel where i stream and as per the configuration when someone subscribes to my channel an alert box will popup with the name of that person. and recent follower name will be updated. When im offline and someone subscribes alert box wont popup but recent follower name should get updated, am i right?
Or
What i understand from the msg above is "If the person has kept it private in settings" neither the alert box will popup nor the recent follower name gets updated.
if you are offline (not streaming) but have obs open, then you will (should) still get the alert box and name change.
yes, if their account is privet then there would not be a name change or pop up when they sub.
i can also confirm this for another alert service i used to use for yt.
@idle dune when im not streaming obs is closed so that's not a concern.
All i want to understand is
Subs account is set to private
If they subscribe to my channel, name of the recent subscriber will get updated or not?
no, not if its set to privet
Cool, Thank you for the help in clearing the doubt.
I was confused from last few days with this coz my subs were increasing but name of the recent subscriber was not getting updated so i thought may be i have made some mistakes in setting it up but now its all clear.
Thank you @idle dune
Any updates on the $(user)?
i wanna know how to stream on xbox?
!console @odd raven
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 an blog post about how to setup console streaming with our essential tools: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3

Aint there any endpoints for YouTube Superchat at all? missing an option to grab all superchat's and create a top 5 superchat list just like i can do with a custom widget for tips.
I have a subscriber goal widget. But my subscribers are not updating in real time. There is a problem in your api.
when I had 82 sbs it was showing 81 subscribers. even After having 84 subscribers it was showing 81. but today, when my stream was over, i closed obs. but after sometime I opend obs for some reason. I saw that now It's showing 84
"There is a problem in your api"
se doesnt have an api, they get the api from youtube
if the subs profile is set to privet then se wont see the sub
my subscribers count is showing. may b wrong, may b not in realtime but it's showing. so that must mean that my subs profile hasnot been set in privet.
hlw????
Trying to link YT to my SE account but for some reason it is showing as already claimed?
my subscribers count is showing. may b wrong, may b not in realtime but it's showing. so that must mean that my subs profile hasnot been set in privet.
@small acorn sounds to me like youtube or your pc is being a bit slow and therefor your widget (not an api)
Is not loading in real time but only loaded after you refreshed your widget (browser source?)
@elfin musk Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
Huh? I'm not trying to merge bot 🤣
Im trying to login
@elfin musk that's not the case... everything else is working just fine. Loading in real-time. Just not my subscriber goal.
@elfin musk that's not the case... everything else is working just fine. Loading in real-time. Just not my subscriber goal.
@small acorn
Still seems like an issue on your side as I have a subscriber counter. Subscriber train. Andsubscriber goal counter setup that are working in real time at this moment.
This definately not a pc issue. I restarted obs several time before. But it was like before. Not showing the real subscriber count. Today's case was just a coincidence.
Is you counter a browser source? If yes, where does it come from? Stream elements? Third party website?
If that was the case , i should have to face the same problem with my event list as well as my alart box. You mean that my pc is prioritising my event list and my alart box over my subscriber goal widget? Where everything is a browser source. And what do you think why am I asking for help in this channel of streamelements discord server?
@elfin musk
I'm just asking questions to help you.
To comfirm;
Are you using a browser source?
Where does the browser source come from?
I can't help if I don't know these things
Obviously from stream elements. And stream elements works of the browser source.
How is that obvious? For all I know from what you said it could be an image file 😂
Is it a template you use from Stream Elements?
If so have you tried to switch scenes maybe this will update it?
I have had the issue before where the template was faulty.
Wow dude. Where did I said that I am using image file?
That's the thing you didn't mention anything other then that your subscriber goals aren't updating.
From when subscriber goal widget became a image file?
I was joking in response to you not responding to my question.
Anyhow, did you try switching scenes to refresh the template I suspect you are using?
Switching between scenes doesn't work. It's Just random. As I said before today's case was just a coincidence that I reopened obs and it was updated. I have opened obs before several times. But that didnot make it update. So today's case was just a coincidence.
And is it updated in your Youtube Creators Dashboard?
Youtube is known for having subscriber count issues for the past months
I even refreshed the browser cache. But still it wasn't updated.
Yes. that's how I came to know that my widget isnot updating in real-time.
It was 84 in my creator dashboard but it was showing 81 in my widget
I just did a quick google search on your issue.
Apparently it only updates when you are live.
Nope even that's not the case. I gained those 3 subscribers when I was live.
No clue then sorry, better to wait for a @copper swan.STAFF reply then
And even It updated from 80 to 81 when I wasn't live🤣🤣🤣. It's totally random
No clue then sorry.
But why isn't any stuff replying to me?. It's been several hours since I mentioned this issue.
It's covid, people are busy
Oh
Sometimes a reply can take up to 48 hours.
anyone pls tell me how to delete stream element account ?
Take into account that more people start streaming as they get booted from work. So the staff here is getting more then double the support tickets.

how to import overlayer to obs ??
Copy the link and paste it as a browser source ^^
@round sundial 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
ok tnks
how can i unattach a youtube account?
hey, i'm unable to use the loyalty system, as the option is missing for me in dashboard settings

okay thanks,
How do I get to the link to make the bot mod I messed up and now I can’t find it
@versed tangle To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements as a Comment Moderator at https://www.youtube.com/comment_management
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Hello! I recently activated membership on my channel and they dont show up in my activity feed. Everything except members. Any ideas?
@upbeat skiff Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook)
Hello! How do you activate membership?
@amber aurora That's up to YouTube. You'll need to follow their guidelines or reach out to them.
@amber aurora That's up to YouTube. You'll need to follow their guidelines or reach out to them.
@fickle pagoda What are their guidelines?
Please refer to their support articles.
I have logged out and in again, still doesnt show up
@upbeat skiff Logging out and in won't suddenly make past events appear. It's to refresh the connection to your account so everything is being properly looked for.
Alright. So what can i do about showing members? Nothing? just wait and hope?
Refreshing the connection should make the system recognize you have the capacity to receive members. Future members should appear in your activity feed.
Hm okay, ill hope it works next time, Thank you 🙂
@idle dune what about superchats then, aint ther somekind of api for that ?
What endpoint is usable to get the leader in superchat's just wondering

do you guys know if stream elements has a loyalty system like streamlabs chatbot?
Not for YouTube channels.
I see! Also, is there a way to welcome new viewers to the stream automatically? or a way to check chat logs or see how long the viewers have been watching the live stream?
There is not.
alright, thank you so much Nethyr, you have been very helpful! Is there a roadmap for stream elements where it plans to add in more functionality for youtube channels as pretty much all chatbots are concentrated on making twitch streaming an amazing experience with much less focus on youtube, itself. It would be good to see that youtube streaming would be getting some love in the future too!
We do not have a public roadmap, no.
Alright, thank you!
Having trouble publishing my stream for youtube

Hi i'm not sure where to ask this but, the streamelements mobile app doesn't have a companion mode when u log in through youtube. it only shows up when u log in through twitch. Has any1 with a YT been able to use companion mode on the mobile app?

hiya guys im trying to set up my bot i have just moved overy 100% to here but i can get the bot to work ive added to my mods on youtube and followed set up but no joy
Make sure you are not streaming to a private stream
ahh makes sense i was doing that with testing 🙂 thanks
sorry another quick question im trying to set up the points but its not showing i can! is that just for twitch on here?
Yes, loyalty system is Twitch only
ok thank you 🙂
Not sure if this is the correct place but I wanted to add a local time to the stream. I found one widget but it doesn't have the option to change the format to HH:mm:ss and I can't change it to a custom font either
Nvm figured out the HH:mm:ss part
I somehow managed the last part as well . . . .
Hi for some reason when I start streaming it does not connect to my youtube dashboard
this has never happened to me before
never mind re put in stream key and fixed it
Can you use a loyalty system for youtube or only twitch

Hello!
i want to create a overlay for starting screen but i go to editing i change name but it not appear when i check preview
Click save and then click "preview"
not working
Anyone able to help me with account de-linking and such?
@slow owl There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
I tried this but when I used my youtube account as login, in the dashboard there is no email listed and I have no idea what to put in Username field. I have tried a few usernames that it could be but none work.
@slow owl Please send the same details as the closure form requires to our CTO Reem here: reem@streamelements.com - he will close your account.
JWT token + Account ID and my profile name? because that is the only details I can find.
Yes those details
ok thank you, will send an email now.
Hey there, alot of the bots custom commands don't work, such as !subs !followers etc
How do I add the watchtime command?
Watchtime doesn't work on Youtube as it is tied to loyalty. YT has their API limited when it comes to that functionality.
This is the response I get when I use the points command @warm tiger, ${user} has ${user.points} points
Instead of the name of the user and the number of points

Hii any one there
@candid barn 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.
Hi @versed tangle, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
@versed tangle Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190

Hey guys, I just got streamelements up and I just wanna know. How would I go about setting it up so I have the same alerts both for YouTube and Twitch? As well as song requests and being able to show the song being played in the stream on the screen
Hopefully this is the right section to ask this 😅
Not possible.
StreamElements does not have multistreaming support. All data is completely separate between channels.
So id have to set up things separately? As in a different chatbot per platform?

how do i make the bot a moderator because it sais put a name but ive tried bot and that but it wont work
In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.

@lime walrus i am trying to edit overlay but its not editing
How are you trying to edit the overlay?
hello. why does the stream tools dont pop out when i click ?
@fallen meadow can you add screenshots please so it's clear what you're referring to?
@peak sage it just turn blue when i click it and nothing happens
There is nothing in the stream tools as a widget, to show up
Yeah @fallen meadow - you can't pop out the 'Stream Tools' itself. It only allows you to insert the chat widget into the overlay we're editing.
and as keizar mentioned nothing actually shows up when you do that but a big square to represent the chat area
@peak sage but i cant put live stream chatbox when i just editing my overlays. is that normal ?

@cloud dustNot working for me
@quiet sun what exactly do you want to do?
@peak sage the charity and seasonal have widgets inside. but the stream tools itself have nothing.
@cloud dust i selected a overlay went to edit and edited text of Facebook, insta, YouTube clicked save and checked preview but nothing changed there
@fallen meadow When you hover over any other option for adding widgets, you get a list of widgets you can add to your overlay.
Unfortunately, there isn't a widget under "Stream tools" for you too choose and add, so its not poping out anything when you hover over it.
@lime walrus yeah there is non. but i compare it when choosing Fb account. there is chat box. but in YT platform there is non. i think there is already chat box that's why? you think?
@cloud dust i selected a overlay went to edit and edited text of Facebook, insta, YouTube clicked save and checked preview but nothing changed there
@quiet sun When you open the overlay editor again after saving, were your changes not saved? Do I understand this correctly?
@quiet sun When you open the overlay editor again after saving, were your changes not saved? Do I understand this correctly?

I am telling when i am editing my overlay , i changed name of Facebook, Instagram to my user name but when i click save and paste the link in obs nothing changes happen
@cloud dust
I am telling when i am editing my overlay , i changed name of Facebook, Instagram to my user name but when i click save and paste the link in obs nothing changes happen
@quiet sun Can you try to open the link you insert in OBS in a new tab in the browser? Tell me then whether the changes made there became effective or not
One thing you can still try is to disable all addons you have installed and activated in your browser for a short time. Then try to change and save your overlay.
My OBS.Live doesn't have a frame
I reset the UI and now everything looks different
Never mind
Managed to fix it myself
@quiet sun Can you try to open the link you insert in OBS in a new tab in the browser? Tell me then whether the changes made there became effective or not
@cloud dust
Same no change occur
Have you tried disabling the addons too?
stream alerts and chat alerts are not working on youtube
@quiet sun
The YouTube and Facebook name is not displayed in OBS. Looks like you can edit the overlay normally.
Please follow step-by-step:
- Replace "@Instagram" in the overlay editor with "@quiet sun" as a test
- Save the overlay by clicking on "SAVE" in the upper right corner
- Check if the changes took effect by clicking "PREVIEW" in the upper right corner.
- If the changes have been applied, click on this icon: http://img.bantor.de/27910/5f2c23b4d2e12.png and paste the copied URL into OBS by clicking on the Browser Source and pasting the link there.
- If the changes were not applied, please try step 4 anyway. If it didn't work please get back to me
@cloud dust bro i edited tweet with @quiet sun but nothing happend
There is most likely no error on the part of our system in this context. It must be a client-side failure, so it must be you.
If you like, I can offer you a manual check with AnyDesk (screen transfer software). But I understand if you don't want to do that either.
Should i do screen share in vc?
I'm sending you a PM
Okk
Okay, problem solved.
@quiet sun didn't change the text about "Settings", but tried all the time to give the layer its own name. ^^
hello , can you help me with something? the alerts for youtube doesnt work
even the chat alerts
even the chat alerts
@dreamy elk Hi, have you already added the StreamElements Bot to the channel as a moderator?
hello , can you help me with something? the alerts for youtube doesnt work
@dreamy elk You must define the alerts in the Overlay Editor and integrate the Overlay URL in your OBS. Have you done that already?
When you are no longer streaming, try to restart OBS. Let me know back here if the problem still exists. You can also simulate alerts into your OBS via the simulation in the Overlay Editor.
um the issue is not only with stream alerts , the modules...if someone subs to the channel it doesnt shout it out.
Please check if you have activated these two buttons. http://img.bantor.de/27910/5f2c344af0ce4.png
Does anyone know if I set up the tipping but though stream elements would it pop up though my YouTube
When someone types a command in the chat it only shows for me and not my views so i have to type it in manually can you help
I've tried to search tutorials but no one helps so i thought this would work
when i Put my Youtube Name In the Box And then click save it does not show up
Click on the widget and then hit the "Settings" area in the bottom left. You're currently just editing the name of the layer like you renames your sources in OBS.
Does anyone know if I set up the tipping but though stream elements would the donation pop up though my YouTube on screen or in chat or would it just not pop up only on the website
hello , can you help me with something? sometimes when someone subscribes with their subs on public it dose not show the alert
@little dust Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190
i would love to use obs signed into youtube to stream but why does stream elements want access to delete my videos?
Note how it says "See, edit, and delete." It's not taking those permissions to delete anything.
StreamElements does not delete videos.
so it will be good to go then? woot would liove to feel that hehe
Yes, there's nothing to be concerned about. The only way your videos are getting deleted is if you do so yourself.
ok sweet tx for the prompt answer
hello how can i change mi twitch account to mi youtube account in my ground control?
Remove the JWT token.
how
Go into the settings, find the JWT token field, and clear it.
Hey there. I want to close my YouTube account, however, it says I have the wrong email. I just want to merge it with my Twitch but can't due to it already being "Claimed" any staff that can assist with the closing?
@inland plaza Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
Do you understand the limitations?
Please DM me the JWT tokens, clearly labeling which is which.
Copy that. Shall do. Thank you!
Hi! I use StreamElements Live (obs.live) but i stream at YT.
How can i configure to show my YT chat instead of Twitch chat?
@untold sluice Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I believe ground control is a separate program from OBS instead of an OBS studio plugin
I'm just a pleb though

hey @lime walrus i am having major issues with the bot on youtube with chat alerts , i have turned the module on for chat alerts..sometimes the bot is not even there. What can i do ?
In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.
Official youtube channel for StreamElements tutorials https://StreamElements.com
Then make sure you are not doing a private stream
the bot cant join private/unlisted streams
it says its public
@dreamy elk Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
then do this and give it 5-10 minutes
will do
Is my results the same if i have set up tips on twitch but not on youtube?
Your twitch account and your YT account are separate on StreamElements and do not share data.
No, just the tipping links for the platforms are different.
Thanks i thought the links where the same
can the chatbots name be changed on youtube?
Does anyone know if I set up the tipping but though stream elements would the donation pop up though my YouTube on screen or in chat or would it just not pop up only on the website

I have a transparent webm file I'm trying to use for an alert. if i play it in obs it works. if i add it as an alert it show transparent in streamelements but as a browser source it plays with a black background in obs. Any help would be awesome. Thanks
my stream lags when i still have a good computer and good internet to handle it
here's my log
When I stream with stream elements or some type or source or bot in my stream it lags bad and I’m the only one on the internet
how do i change the bots name
You can't change if you on Youtube.

Guys,I don't know if this is happening in you too but when I copy the link to OBS the sub goal disappears
Can someone help?
@versed tangle 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
So I use stream elements mainly to stream on twitch but I wanted to stream on YouTube today and I find it is the easiest streaming service to set up overlays well I changed my YouTube name a while back and stream elements is still using my old YouTube name it has the correct channel and all just every time I go to add an overlay and it says your name at the top it automatically adds my old YouTube channel name having not figured out how to change my username on stream elements I sent an email to stream elements to close my account is this going to close my twitch account as well I didn't know where to post this so I just posted it here considering it's YouTube related
@drifting ginkgo YouTube name that's displayed is not changeable.
Hi everyone I just started a YouTube channel
I have t posted any vids
How should I start
I’m going to post once a week
either #general-chat or #735163387683668100
my channel name is not updating in streamelements account and its showing older name , its been a week can someone help me in this ?
how my new channel name will be updated ?
I am at wits end. Please help. I have been working on this for two weeks now. I attempted to stream to Youtube which I have determined to be a lost cause. But now, Stream Elements won't stream to anywhere but Youtube. I have changed settings and even disconnected my Youtube from Stream Elements as a whole. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Streamelements and nothing! It just keeps trying (and failing) to stream to Youtube. I'm really close to just uninstalling and deleting my account and just dealing with not having all the features this OBS has. They do no good when you can't use any of them.
@tranquil trail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@tranquil trail Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
Here you go.
This only appears when you are logged into OBS.Live with YouTube. Please reread the first instructions the bot provided and log out and back in with the StreamElements menu at the top of OBS, and NOT in Settings>Stream. They are different logins.
Facepalm Yeah well it pops up every time I hit Start Streaming. No matter what I'm selected to stream to. Every time. My Youtube isn't even connected to this. No matter what I put in there. I could run you a video. I Log out. I run from StreamElements, from Admin mode. I go to Streaming, I change it from the Custom selection where it has Youtube listed to my Twitch. I connect my Twitch account. I select Start Streaming. This pops up. I log out completely, even on the damn website! I log back in from scratch starting with StreamElements App in Admin. I go to Streaming and the Custom Youtube link is back, I change it to Twitch again, I log out of everything, I run again StreamElements in Admin, I got to Streaming it has the Youtube link again, I change it to Twitch, click Start Streaming and this pops up again....
I have logged out of Stream Elements.
Again, the settings in Settings>Stream have absolutely nothing to do with the instructions you've been given. The only logout that will resolve this is directly in the StreamElements menu at the top of OBS. Changing anything anywhere else will not change the behavior.
Logging out of the website will do nothing. Disconnecting things in your YouTube account will do nothing. The only thing that will change anything is to log out in the StreamElements menu at the top of OBS.
Ok, I logged out throught StreamElements tab on OBS. Closed it out. Reopened it, just to be sure. Then I log back in, I select Start Streaming. Right?
Please take a screenshot of OBS with the StreamElements menu open.
facepalm
You know what. I'm good. Thanks.
Uninstalled.
Sorry for wasting your time. Have a wonderful day.
Nothing is being wasted. I'm simply verifying that the correct step has been done and you're not looking in the wrong place.
I wasn't. I logged out using the logout section under the StreamElements tab on OBS about 25 times. Logged back in, it would do the same thing again. That's why I logged out and uninstalled, then reinstalled, logged in, same thing. I'm not going to fight with it any more. Thank you though, I mean that I'm not being an ass.
The view in the menu will also verify for me that you've logged in with Twitch and not YouTube. YouTube won't have the same options there.
@versed tangle 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 I got my overlay to obs but now it won’t fit I think the image to big
Did you make it 1920x1080?
How to do that
@versed tangle 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

Hello all, I have a problem when using StreamElements with OBS Studio Browser Source, the source is really too laggy (it updates only if something in the StreamElements is updated, otherwise it is not moving at all). Even though, I tried using the same browser source link in StreamLabs OBS, and it worked perfectly! (Browser HW acceleration is active). Can anyone help me solving the issue with OBS Studio?
Disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration.
I did, that did not help
@full locust Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
I did not even start a stream, I am just seeing that in preview (I tried recording too, and is the same), is that ok?
If yes, then this is here:
https://obsproject.com/logs/V_24dBGszGqz5iuH
I did now, but as said, it did not help, still the same
Also, follow the information here: https://obsproject.com/analyzer/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FV_24dBGszGqz5iuH

Loyalty is not available for YouTube.
