Answered by Michael Wilson

To get the purple status on Discord, you need to connect your Twitch account to Discord. This will allow Discord to detect when you start streaming on Twitch and automatically change your online status indicator to purple. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

1. Open Discord and navigate to the User Settings by clicking on the gear icon at the bottom left corner of the screen.

2. In the User Settings, go to the Connections tab located in the left sidebar.

3. Scroll down until you find the Twitch integration option. Click on the purple “Connect” button next to it.

4. A new window will appear, prompting you to authorize Discord to access your Twitch account. Make sure you’re logged in to the correct Twitch account and click on the “Authorize” button.

5. Once authorized, you will be redirected back to Discord, and you’ll see a list of options related to Twitch integration. Look for the “Display on profile” option and toggle it on if you want to show your Twitch stream on your Discord profile.

6. Additionally, you can customize the message that appears on your Discord status when you’re streaming on Twitch. You can edit this message under the “Stream Activity” section.

7. click on the “Done” button to save your changes.

Now, when you start streaming on Twitch, your Discord status indicator will automatically change to purple, indicating to everyone on Discord that you’re currently live. This makes it easier for your friends and followers to know when you’re streaming and join your stream directly from your Discord profile.

It’s worth mentioning that only people who are connected to you on Discord will be able to see your purple status and click on the “LIVE ON TWITCH” option to watch your stream. This provides a convenient way for your Discord community to stay connected and join your Twitch streams without having to search for your stream separately.

By integrating Twitch with Discord, you can enhance the visibility of your streams and make it more convenient for your audience to join and engage with your content. So go ahead, connect your Twitch account to Discord, and enjoy the benefits of having a purple status indicator when you’re live on Twitch!
