Livestream Guide
Updated over a week ago

NOTE: YOU ARE CURRENTLY ABLE TO STREAM ONLY FROM DESKTOP. LIVESTREAMING FROM MOBILE IS COMING SOON. MEMBERS CAN VIEW FROM EITHER DESKTOP, OR MOBILE.


Creating a new livestream

On the livestream page, click the "Create livestream" button.

You'll then see a stepper at the top of the screen that will guide you through the livestream setup. Future livestreams will remember the settings used previously, so you can skip through the steps if you want to keep things the same as last time.

Chat access

Each livestream has its OWN live chat, which is SEPARATE from the main chat on your site. This will allow you to customize the settings for each stream differently. On the chat access tab, you'll see similar options to those on other content pages. This access can be changed at any time during your stream.

Stream access

As with the livestream chat, access to watch the video can also be customized before, or during the livestream.

Tip goals

Tip goals are overall USD targets you want to meet during your livestream. These can be shown to/hidden from viewers.

Tip actions

Tip actions display buttons over your stream that prompt users to tip certain amounts for that particular action. You can show/hide tip actions during the livestream. Tip actions can be set to fade over time, if there are no tips for that action.

Tip action goals
You can set an optional tip action goal if you would like to set a price that would require multiple tips to achieve. For example, you could set a tip action goal of 200 USD which would require, for example, 8 tips 25 USD to achieve.

Can the same member tip more than once to reach the tip action goal?
Yes, the same person can tip multiple times for the same action.

Stream via browser or via third party software

In addition to streaming from your browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc.), you can use third party software to stream to your site.

Scheduled livestreams

As with other content types, you can schedule livestream for a future date:

Doing so will show a popup on your site to your videos with the option to add to their calendar:

Auto-announcements

You'll have the option to send private message/email announcements to your members and auto-tweets. The options will change based on whether you'll start the stream now, or schedule it in the future.

Popup

When your stream is live, visitors to your site will see a popup in the bottom left corner announcing your stream. Visitors will see a slightly different version depending on their access.

Statistics

Once you've started your stream, you'll see a stats section beneath the video player. You can see who's watching your stream, broken down by membership and access settings. You can also see detailed tip statistics, including information on each tip action.

Lovense & Kiiroo toy Integration
