Streaming Overlay

Was this helpful?

You can generate a transparent page without a header, footer, or sidebar to use as an overlay for your broadcast. Page builders will allow you to assemble any layout you are required. This layout will be published as a regular page on the site, and you can add it to the stream by URL.

First, you'll need to create a layout template inside your theme. In the WordPress admin panel, go to Settings --> Twitch and open the General tab. You can find the Generate Overlay Template button in an Overlay subsection.

This action will alter your theme files. Please remember if you are using version control or something like that.

After the template is generated, you can create a page and assign it in settings:

Your theme might add some additional elements or styles that are hardcoded. Please get in touch with your developer or me to help you clear the layout.

Sometimes, when you switch to another page builder, like Elementor, the page template can change. You can return to the Gutenberg editor and switch the template back.

If you want to add extra styles to the layout, you can use these CSS selectors:

body.page-template-twitch-overlay {
}
#argus-twitch-overlay-template {
}
