Restricting what someone can post in Twitch chat

By pre-approving trusted content to bypass your auto moderation, you can automatically remove any possibly harmful content in your Twitch chat.

By adjusting who the whitelisting applies to, it can also act as an additional reward for your community members, increasing engagement and loyalty.

Your whitelist of trusted links lets any pre-approved links bypass your link message filter.

Follow these steps to add a trusted link:

  1. Open up the «Moderation» menu from the main menu, then open the «Whitelisted links» menu from there.The moderation main menuThe moderation main menu
  2. Add your link at the bottom of the menu, in the «Whitelisted link...» input.Pre-approving trusted linksPre-approving trusted links
  3. Click the «Add» button at the bottom of the menu to add your link.

This will approve the links «twitch.tv/moobot» and «www.twitch.tv/moobot» only.

This will approve any links from the «clips.twitch.tv» domain, including any paths like «clips.twitch.tv/Kappa» and «clips.twitch.tv/Kappa/Keepo».

All paths after specified path​

This will approve any links from the «clips.twitch.tv» domain with the path «clips.twitch.tv/moobot», including paths like «clips.twitch.tv/moobot/Kappa» and «clips.twitch.tv/moobot/Kappa/Keepo».

Entire domain​

By using the «*» wildcard for both the sub-domain and the path, Moobot will approve the entire «twitch.tv» domain, including all its variations.

Restricting who will be pre-approved​

You can set which users are allowed to post your whitelisted links or Twitch clips from trusted channels by selecting their user groups in the «Users who can post...» dropdown.

Besides choosing the «Normal users» option, which allows all users to post your whitelisted links or clips, you can also choose from the following user groups:

  1. Moobot regulars
  2. Twitch subs
  3. Twitch VIPs

Keep in mind the user only has to be in one of the selected user groups to be able to post your whitelisted links or clips from trusted channels.
