Use the widget editor
Open the corresponding page in Widgets. Review its settings, supported triggers and plan availability. Add the supplied widget URL to OBS and use its preview or test controls where available.
Start with one widget and check placement before enabling several at once. A busy screen can obscure both your content and other alerts.
Check the trigger
An empty overlay may be waiting for an event rather than failing to load. Confirm its enabled state, event rules and platform support before changing the OBS source.
