The great big "I'm using WIX/SomeWebsiteMaking Tool and I don't know how to fix my embed" thread

Looking at your embeds, you’re using localhost as the parent, such as https://player.twitch.tv/?video=v867132638&parent=localhost

You need to change localhost to www.micherode.se

really weird this, I change the code in cpanel but not affect changes. I also try clear my whole browser history.

The code is changes as you mention but doesnt changes when i go to site, still localhost showing.

Looking at this URL I don’t even get a website

that was just a test domain, www.vods.tv is the real one.

Your parent is incorrect it should be www.vods.tv

No need to specifically reply to me/post twice I see the replies to the thread as I’m the OP

I implemented this code and i get an error message still…

<html>
  <body>
    <!-- Add a placeholder for the Twitch embed -->
    <div id="twitch-embed"></div>

    <!-- Load the Twitch embed script -->
    <script src="https://embed.twitch.tv/embed/v1.js"></script>

    <!-- Create a Twitch.Embed object that will render within the "twitch-embed" root element. -->
   <script type="text/javascript">
      var embed = new Twitch.Embed("twitch-embed", {
        width: 400,
        height: 300,
        channel: "exitwestsf",
        layout: "video",
        autoplay: false,
        parent:[ "www-exitwestsf-com.filesusr.com", "www.exitwestsf.com"]
      });
</script>
    </body>
      </html>
      
  </body>
</html>

Can you link to the page with the broken embed, there is no broken embed on https://www.exitwestsf.com/

Yes!! It’s up. I used code you previously recommended. Can you please post the full code that could work, thanks again’

James

Loads fine here.

Seems to load a while after the page finishes loading which is weird.

Yes Ok, thank You. Much appreciated,

James

One last question? I’m also trying to embed chat on https://www.exitwestsf.com/events
The element is set up but not working,

James

The stream embed works fine, the chat doesn’t because the src is missing parent= after the &

It should be https://www.twitch.tv/embed/hebo/chat?parent=www.exitwestsf.com&parent=www-exitwestsf-com.filesusr.com

Thank You @Dist
I have a couple of more questions, I can’t seem to use the percentage for height and width. Am I missing something? Also the theme will not change to light, again I’m assuming user error…

James

var embed = new Twitch.Embed("twitch-embed", { width: 800, height: 500, channel: "exitwestsf", allowfullscreen: true, layout: "video", autoplay: true, theme: "light", parent:[ "www-exitwestsf-com.filesusr.com", "www.exitwestsf.com"] });

Currently you are using two iFrames rather than embed everyone in one iframe

Chat URL would be, you are currently using a “dumb” iframe here, which doesn’t support a theme with a documented flag

https://www.twitch.tv/embed/hebo/chat?parent=www.exitwestsf.com&parent=www-exitwestsf-com.filesusr.com

And your init script would be, (it doesn’t/can’t have a “theme” that only applies to chat)

      var embed = new Twitch.Embed("twitch-embed", {
        width: '100%',
        height: '100%',
        channel: "exitwestsf",
        allowfullscreen: true,
        layout: "video",
        autoplay: true,
        theme: "light",
        parent:[ "www-exitwestsf-com.filesusr.com", "www.exitwestsf.com"]
      });

Since you have autoplay you don’t need the video ready/start playing

Everything looks and works great now, thanks for all of your help and insights, have a great day,

James

I been struggling trying to get this embedded to work on my website https://www.phrydey.com/

There is no Embed on the page you have linked to.

I cannot advise a fix. Please see the original post on this thread for suggestions

I try using the suggestion but it still not showing up. I must be doing something wrong. I need a little assistance. https://www.phrydey.com/

You parent list is wrong you should be using


      new Twitch.Embed("twitch-embed", {
        width: 854,
        height: 480,
        channel:"phrydey",
        // only needed if your site is also embedded on embed.example.com and othersite.example.com 
        parent: ["www.phrydey.com", "www-phrydey-com.filesusr.com"]
      });

Hi Barry,

I’ve just thrown together a quick website using Wix and linked it to my own domain. I’ve tried to embed my Twitch stream into a page but I’m getting this error:

I’ve looked through the previous help you’ve provided to see if I can fathom out where I’ve been going wrong but I haven’t been able to get there on my own. Would you be able to provide some assistance?

The embed is found on www.wartopsy.co.uk/stream
