Streaming Overlay

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.
