Chat safety

Spam filters, banned words, a moderation log and content moderation that keep your Kick, Twitch and YouTube chat and overlay clean.

Open in Trigglow

Safety & filters in the sidebar has four pages. Spam filters and Banned words act on live chat on Kick, Twitch and YouTube: when a message matches, Trigglow Bot deletes it, times out or bans the chatter, or only logs a warning. Your channel moderators are never filtered.
Spam filters starts with a Protection level (Off, Minimum, Medium, Maximum) that switches filters on in one go; each filter stays editable afterwards. The filters cover caps, links (with allowed and blocked domains), emotes, long paragraphs, symbols, repeated words, zalgo (glitch text), language and one-man-spam. Each one has its own penalty, roles that skip it and an optional warning in chat, and the tester on the page shows what a message would trigger.
Banned words has built-in packs (Spanish / English basics, Severe slurs and hate speech, Spam and scams, Explicit sexual) that share one penalty, your own groups of words or phrases with their own penalty, and exceptions that never trigger. The same lists mask or block words in the viewer text shown on your overlay, such as {message} in alerts and TTS.
Moderation log lists every message a filter acted on, plus timeouts, bans and unbans done with the moderation commands, and keeps them for a limited time shown on the page. Content moderation sets the Protection level (Strict, Standard, Relaxed) for images, GIFs and text before they go on stream, and Allow viewer media uploads: when it is off, viewers can only pick GIFs and sounds from Trigglow's catalog, with no voice recordings of their own.

Steps

  1. 1
    Make Trigglow Bot a moderator of your channel (see Trigglow Bot).
  2. 2
    Open Safety & filters → Spam filters and pick a Protection level.
  3. 3
    Adjust each filter and its penalty, then try a message in the tester.
  4. 4
    Open Banned words, turn on the packs you want and add your own groups and exceptions.
  5. 5
    After your stream, check Moderation log to see what was caught.
Warning
Filters can't act when the bot is not a moderator of your channel. The safety pages show a red banner when that happens.
Tip
Changes save on their own a moment after you edit. Watch the Saved indicator at the top of the page.
Note
To lift a ban the filters gave, use the !unban moderation command (Trigglow Bot → Modules → Moderation commands).
Note
If a paid alert uses the viewer's voice recording and you turn off Allow viewer media uploads, your page shows it as not available until you turn uploads back on.
