  1. None of my panel extensions show up anymore. They were working before, but the cards appear empty now. In extension manager they do show up, but the configuration pop-up is empty.

    Edit: They do show up when I'm not logged in. But how do I configure them if I can't see them when I'm logged in!?!

  2. The Extension Action: "followChannel" currently only accepts the channel name.

    window.Twitch.ext.actions.followChannel: void function(channelName: String)

    Most of the other extension APIs all use IDs and these are readily available in the extension from the JWT. With the way this API is designed, in order to use it you now have to make an extra network request against the Helix endpoint to get the channelName from the channelId.

    My request is to make it so this action supports taking the channelId or that the channelName is exposed in the JWT token.

  3. Probably 95% of Bits are provided through Twitch Chat by typing e.g. Cheer100.

    This way of using Bits is explained and well-known for Twitch viewers. Not allowing Twitch Developers to use the same functionality is a direct limitation and provides an inconsistent user experience.

    For example, let's say we have a game called "Racer". Join the race with bits and race against other viewers. Viewers type racer100 in Twitch chat and join the race.

    Every developer gets a certain code (racer) similar to the extension name, and the amount determines the action. The action list is communicated with !racer, more…

  4. Add it so I can make a comment to the twitch streamer without having to DM them on discord or whisper, please.

    /comment Care for [user] being toxic in chat with [ ] .

    Just would make things easier IMO and helps a lot if the streamer gets issues with running discord or any other issues.

  5. Enabling overlay extension ("Ctrl+ Stream Kit" tested in particular but probably any) currently makes it impossible to pause/unpause livestream in web player with spacebar hotkey until "Pause" icon is clicked with a mouse at lease once since page load.

  6. I've looked through the twitch-dev-discord. And there seem to be many people who like me want to use keyboard-events in their extension.

    Keyboard-inputs would make a lot more interesting and fun games possible, instead of the current 5 million versions of the same quiz/sticker-extension.

    Since keyboard-events are allowed in <input>, I don't understand why it isn't allowed outside of an input.

    Also, I think the documentation should be clarified:
    "2.3 Extensions may not use keyboard shortcuts to power functionality."

    What you mean is:
    "Extensions may not use keyboard input outside of a input-field to power functionality."

  7. Buenas noches,estoy teniendo un problema con las retransmisiones de twitch referente a amazon music. Se supone que al usar esta extension,marcas una casilla donde afirmas que el audio que salga de la extension,no pertenece al stream,entonces por que me estais silenciando fragmentos de los videos y ademas siempre que esto pasa,como puedo realizar una apelacion al respecto? por que no hay una opcion como "ha habido un fallo con el audio de terceros de amazon music" a la hora de realizar las apelaciones y los perjudicados al final somos nosotros.Espero una solucion lo antes posible gracias.Añado que os he apelado…

  8. Right now if a twitch extension gets denied and needs developer to re-submit, the review notes are all gone. It would be great if for the same extension it would keep the review notes. I had an app that had a backend issue that I resolved, but I had to re-submit the app (didn't upload any new files or change anything), and the review details was empty.

  9. Good day.
    I suggest adding add-ons for the chat.
    Namely, translation of the chat in real time into different languages.
    For the convenient use of foreign citizens.
    So that every Twitch member can customize the translation of the chat text they know.
    And also provide the opportunity to select the translation of the chat text separately for the streamer.

    How viewers see the chat :
    nickname1 - Hello!
    nickname2 - Hola!
    nickname3 - Привіт!

    How the streamer and viewers will see the chat by setting up the translator extension:

    nickname1 - Hello! [EU]
    nickname2 - Hello! [ES]
    nickname3 - Hello!…

  10. Some of the streamers I watch have since rebranded and changed their twitch name; however, the prime-sub notification shows the old name/another channel in the extension. Perhaps the extension is looking in an older, archaic location for the username? Regardless, it would be nice if the extension reminded people to resubscribe to the correct person.

  11. The extension Icon is too close to the “Chat” title, the logo we provided is for all the twitch platform, so it’s seems like problem on twitch end…

  12. Viewers should be able to join the stream in a one on one video conference (in front of the rest of the stream) to be able to talk directly to the streamer.

    Examples would include having viewers either donating to participate or queuing and when the streamer selects the option, the viewer is also casting to the stream to ask questions or just have a general chat with the host.

    This could be a useful way to engage the audience further, encourage more active users and fills gaps between the load times on games etc.

  13. Right now an Extension's Discovery Page can only be in one language. It would improve the amount of streamers that would be able to discover an extension if the developer could optionally provide translations for various languages.

  14. I am curious why Twitch streamers are limited to 3 panel extensions. I hope there is a good reason, cause I feel like 5 sounds like a better number. There's a lot of super awesome extensions out that I can want to utilize, but the limited # prevents that. Any reason why it's limited to 3, and could it be expanded?

  15. I think a pronoun extension would be great a lot of streamers are using the chrome one but if it were a twitch extension you could view on all
    Browsers and hopefully on the mobile app.

  16. Let streamers know when extensions are down, being worked on, or just plain removed. I've seen a few extensions that were working one day, but the next they weren't and yet were still there when you look for them. You couldn't get them but they were there. Then a few days later it was gone and yet streamers only know if they search for it.

  17. Tengo un problema con la extensión free stream alerts, en la cual no me aparecen los banners en la pantalla del directo, ni cuando trato de hacer la prueba en la misma extensión; y al parecer es solo en mi cuenta principal por que lo intento en la cuenta secundaria y al parecer en las pruebas aparece todo correcto. necesito ayuda.

  18. Make closed captioning (CC) a universal feature. Closed captions are a necessary feature in the current year. It not only helps deaf people but also helps people understanding foreign languages or reading something they missed while watching.

  19. I would really love to show people who watch me on mobile to see the overlays I made, I would stream so much more often, I worked so ******* that overlay just for people who watch me on their phone (which is nearly all of my viewers) to not see it. I don’t have the money for a pc so I can’t put an overlay on that way, so I’d love it if this feature was added to Overlay Expert on mobile. Pleassseeeee

  20. One of the main problems streamers of competitive online titles face daily is stream sniping. You see it across most main stream titles, from League of Legends to Call of Duty: WarZone. One of the ways this is dealt with, is the hidden map. On each game, streamers are finding ways to hide their mini map, or full screen map to avoid stream snipers. I am suggesting an extension which will allow subscribers to see past this veil. When I watch League of Legends streamers, I am frustrated because I am not able to see the mini map but understand…
