Clip showcases

A clip showcase posts a streamer’s best moments on a schedule: a generated image ranking the period’s most-viewed clips — top 1, 3, or 5 — with a link button for every clip right under the picture. Set it up once and your server gets a highlight reel every day, week, or month.

Creating a showcase

  1. 1Open your server in the dashboard and click + New clip showcase (below your monitors).
  2. 2Type the Twitch channel name whose clips get ranked — the name in twitch.tv/<name>.
  3. 3Pick one or more announcement channels — the showcase fans out to every channel you select, just like a monitor.
  4. 4Choose how often it posts (daily, weekly, or monthly), the post time, and your timezone. Weekly showcases also ask for the day of the week.
  5. 5Pick how many top clips to feature (1, 3, or 5), optionally add mentions and a custom message, and click Create showcase. The form shows exactly when the first post will go out.
Creating a showcase verifies the Twitch channel actually exists — a typo'd name is rejected immediately rather than silently never posting.

Cadences & what each post covers

CadencePostsClips covered
DailyEvery day at your chosen timeThe 24 hours before the post
WeeklyYour chosen day of the week, at your chosen timeThe 7 days before the post
MonthlyThe 1st of every month, at your chosen timeThe entire previous calendar month

Clips are ranked by view count within the covered window — the same ordering Twitch itself uses for “top clips.”

Schedules are anchored to the timezone you pick, not the server's. A 6:00 PM weekly showcase posts at 6:00 PM on your wall clock all year round — daylight-saving transitions are handled for you.

What the post looks like

Each showcase is a single Discord message: your mentions and custom message on top, the generated ranked showcase image (the #1 clip as a large hero with its thumbnail, rank medallion, duration, and view count — runners-up as compact ranked rows), and one link button per clip directly under the image, labelled like #1 · 45K views. Clicking a button opens that clip on Twitch.

A real top-3 showcase card, rendered by the same engine that posts to your server.

The custom message supports placeholders, substituted at post time:

PlaceholderBecomes
{streamer}The streamer's display name
{platform}“Twitch”
{login}The lowercase channel name
{url}A link to the streamer's channel
{title}The covered period's label, e.g. JUN 25 – JUL 1 or JUNE 2026

Managing showcases

ActionWhat it does
Test postPosts the currentperiod's top clips to every configured channel immediately. Test posts never ping — @everyone/@here/role mentions are stripped — and the regular schedule is untouched.
Enable / DisablePauses or resumes the schedule without deleting the configuration. Re-enabling recomputes the next post from now (it never back-fires).
EditChanges channels, schedule, clip count, mentions, and message in place. The streamer is locked once created — switching streamer means deleting and recreating.
DeleteRemoves the showcase. Nothing external to tear down; instant.
Quiet periods are skipped. If the channel had no clips in the covered window, nothing is posted — no empty leaderboards, no “0 clips” spam. The next period is scheduled as usual.

Limits & platform support

LimitValue
Showcases per streamer per server1 per cadence (a weekly AND a monthly for the same streamer is fine)
Announcement channels per showcaseup to 10
Featured clips per posttop 1, 3, or 5 by views
Custom message length1,500 characters
Clip showcases are Twitch-only for now. Kick does not offer an official clips API, and we'd rather ship nothing than a feature built on an undocumented endpoint that could break overnight. If Kick publishes one, Kick showcases slot straight in.
