Hi,  
I am trying to make a overlay, and in this overlay there are links to other streamers on twitch. The problem is that I can’t find a way make any of those links work because I keep getting a error, that shows in the console of the browser, saying the following,  
"Refused to frame ‘[https://www.twitch.tv/](https://www.twitch.tv/)’ because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: “frame-src ‘self’ [http://localhost:56689](http://localhost:56689)"”  
Any ideas or work arounds would be appreciated!

Video extensions, both overlay and component, can’t have links. You can only have links in panels, config, and dashboard views, and links in those views have to be whitelisted beforehand.

There are a few exceptions to this, but these exceptions are extensions that have specifically been granted the ability by Twitch to use links on a video extension, and is not something the vast majority of extensions will have the ability to do.
