   I have a livestream that I want to embed on my wordpress blog but I can't quite figure out why it won't work.
   Twitch.tv gives me
   <iframe frameborder="0" scrolling="no" id="chat_embed" src="http://twitch.tv/chat/embed?channel=covalent&popout_chat=true" height="301" width="221"></iframe>
   to embed my stream but when I do this, everything before </iframe> is shown on the page. I'm not good with coding so I require some help.

   tl;dr
   Is is possible to embed Twitch.tv livestreams on WordPress?

   Thanks!

   Please see here for the codes that are restricted here at WordPress.com.

   Is is possible to embed Twitch.tv livestreams on WordPress?

   We cam embed these:
   Blip.tv
   DailyMotion
   Flickr Video
   Google Video
   LiveVideo
   TED Talks
   Viddler
   Videolog
   Vimeo
   Vodpod
   YouTube

   The Vodpod Videos Widget is a great way to display image-based links to your favorite videos from around the web in your sidebar. It shows up to 3 of the videos you’ve most recently added to Vodpod.

   Oh I didn't see the restricted codes section. Thanks! That makes sense! I'm going to try VodPod now :)

   I wish I could edit my previous post but it seems I cannot. A question popped into my head about VodPod. Will my viewers be able to watch my stream through WordPress while I am live or will it only be past recordings?

   I'm sorry but I don't know. Perhaps another Volunteer or Staff can answer that for you.
