Compatible XF Versions
1.2, 1.3
Additional Requirements
A partnered Twitch.TV channel
Visible Branding
Yes
A branding removal license and instructions on how to remove the brands quick and easily can be purchased HERE for $50. Each branding removal license is good for ONE forum only! If you appreciate the work here, please DONATE.
What this Addon Does:
This addon allows users to link their Twitch.TV account to their forum account. If their Twitch.TV account is a paid subscriber to the admin specified Twitch.TV channel, they will automatically get a user account upgrade. This will allow you to grant special membership (via secondary usergroup) to anyone who is a paid subscriber of your Twitch.TV channel.
What this Addon Doesn't Do:
This addon does NOT allow openID login using Twitch.TV accounts. I was contemplating adding this feature; but Twitch.TV's account system is highly suspect. They do not require email addresses or confirmations to create accounts; so allowing users to use it as a secondary login system (like Facebook) could be a potential security risk.
