**4.** Create a live role if you haven't already.

**5.** Configure the bot to the live role you created.\
**Example:`+tliverole set "Now Live" or "Streaming on Twitch"`**\
**Example:`+ytliverole set "Live Now" or "Streaming on YouTube"`**

Make sure the Sx Live role is above the live you created and the bot has Manage Roles permissions.

**Example:`+tonlystreamers enable`**\
**Example:`+ytonlystreamers enable`**

{% hint style="warning" %}
By default, everyone in the server will receive the live role. If you want only certain users to receive the live role, you can filter it by enabling only streamers mode. If only streamers is enabled, you will be required to add individual users using the **+tstreamers add** or **+ytstreamers add** command, or set a whitelisted role with +**twhitelist add** or **+ytwhitelist add**
{% endhint %}

**8.\[optional]** Add individual users in your server who will receive the live role is only streamers mode is enabled.\
**Example:`+tstreamers add @user#3214`**\
**Example:`+ytstreamers add @user#4141`**

{% hint style="success" %}
All done! The live roles are setup!
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
For the live role to work correctly, you need to see a purple streaming icon next to the user names who are streaming.
{% endhint %}

We also have created a walkthrough video on how to setup the live roles. If you only need the live role, you don't need to complete the last 2 steps of setting the channel and streamer.
