Use your own bot account
Send bot messages from your own Twitch account instead of TipPageBot - a TipPage+ feature.
By default the bot speaks as TipPageBot on Twitch. With TipPage+ you can link a Twitch account of your own - YourNameBot - and every bot message in your Twitch chat comes from it instead. Commands, announcements, everything else works exactly the same. Chat moderation acts as it too: deletes, timeouts and bans show in chat as your bot, not TipPageBot - which is why it needs to be a moderator.
Before you start
You need a separate Twitch account for the bot. It can’t be your streaming account (we’ll reject that), and one bot account can only serve one channel.
Get a link
In the Bot status panel, find the Appears as row and click Connect custom bot. The dashboard gives you a link to copy. (Not on TipPage+? You’ll see an unlock button instead.)
Open it as the bot
Twitch connects whichever account the browser is signed into - so open the link somewhere that’s signed in as the bot account, not you: another browser, a private window, or your phone. The link works once and for fifteen minutes. The Twitch page names the account it’s about to connect at the top - check it’s the bot before approving.
Authorise
Approve the permissions - they let the account send chat messages as a bot, and delete messages, time out and ban viewers for chat moderation. That tab tells you the one thing left, and the dashboard notices on its own.
Mod it
Type /mod YourBotName in your Twitch chat, signed in as the broadcaster - only the channel owner can grant mod. Without it the bot can’t delete, time out or ban, and Twitch rate-limits what it says.
Disconnecting
Disconnect bot in the same panel reverts everything to TipPageBot instantly. If your TipPage+ lapses, the custom bot switches off with it.
