Migration Notes

Important information for users migrating from the old Stream Deck plugin

This plugin has a new identifier, bot.streamer.streamdeck, allowing it to function side-by-side with the previous plugin, nate1280.streamerbot.

There is no direct migration path other than recreating buttons with the new plugin.
You do not need to delete or recreate your old buttons, unless you plan on uninstalling the old plugin.
If you keep both plugins installed, you will have twoAction buttons available under Streamer.bot, one for each version of the plugin.

Uninstall

When you are ready to uninstall the old plugin, you can follow the steps below:

Do not proceed unless you are sure you want to remove the previous plugin!
  • In the Stream Deck Software, right-click the old Action button and select Uninstall.
    • Alternatively, you can navigate to %APPDATA%/Elgato/StreamDeck and delete the nate1280.streamerbot.streamDeckPlugin folder.
  • Restart the Stream Deck Software
