Socials tells viewers where else to find you. Add your accounts once and the widget cycles through them with the right platform icon, or shows them all at once. It knows more than 30 platforms, from Twitch, YouTube, TikTok and Instagram to Discord, Ko-fi and Spotify.

Layouts

LayoutWhat viewers see
Rotate one cardOne account at a time, switching every few seconds
List (all accounts)Every account stacked
Bar (one row)Every account side by side
Ticker (scrolling band)A scrolling band, great as a lower third

For Rotate one card, set Seconds per account, turn on Shuffle order or turn on Show rotation bar.

Show changes the size of each entry: Full card, Chip (one line) or Icon only.

What each entry shows

  • Show platform name and Show handle are on by default.
  • Show QR code adds a code viewers can scan with their phone.
  • Show follower count shows a live number for your connected Twitch account. Other platforms have no live number.
  • Top line and Call to action add a short line such as "Follow me".

Control it live

Select the widget and a Platform stepper appears above it to jump to the next or previous account. It also works from the Deck and a Stream Deck. You and your mods can use !rotator next and !rotator prev in chat.

Tips

  • Glyph colors switches between brand colors, the look's accent or plain text color.
  • Fit text slightly shrinks the text in the Bar layout while keeping it readable.
  • To hide an account for a while, untick Enabled instead of deleting it.

Looks

Pick a look under Look in the settings card. Every look is a complete style; colors and fonts you set yourself stay on top. 15 looks are available:

Command reference
