Twitch for website

API
1

So i have been trying to find a way to add people streams to my website. I am using streambadge.com, i’m not a huge fan but it works, I dislike that it shows the profile pic of the stream (makes the image to large). Now is what I would like to do is make it so that whoever is live shows at the top of the list. Or maby even doing a small box on the homepage that shows only the 5 streamers that are live. Or something to that effect. I have found some small bits of coding but cant seem to get it to work. Any help is much appreciated.

Your iframes are missing the id attribute? I’m not exactly sure what you’re trying to accomplish.

Yea im not the best coder, Im just trying to get it so that i can add some code to the website so that when a streamer is live it will show on the main page in a lil box. but i would like it to show like in order. So lets say that there are 5 streamers iv added…the streamer that is live goes on top of the rest.

Or if i added more that 5, it would only show the top 5 live streamers on the main page. Something to that affect.

Adjust the variables ‘displayMax’ and ‘streamers’ to your needs. Styling is up to you.
