Twitch Plugin
-
Hello, I am a video game streamer and I would like to use a Twitch plugin that allows the video to be played in the post without it taking people to Twitch itself. I have seen there is a twitch plugin but I can’t use it. Please help me

You are confusing wordpress.COM hosted blogs and wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting.
Aside from the limited plugins for eCommerce blogs http://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/ with the Business upgrade http://store.wordpress.com/plans/business/, there is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs. We cannot install custom or third party themes, and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/This guide will explain how to move your WordPress.com site to another hosting platform: Moving to a Self-Hosted WordPress Site
https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/We provide support only for sites hosted by wordpress.COM. WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you move your content to a wordpress.ORG software install on paid hosting, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

Woah! I didn’t know that. Thanks so much for clueing me in.@toby3141
I apologize. :( -
@timethief, no worries. We try to include support for popular requests and this one is one of them :)
-
Yay thank you this helped a lot! Now I am having troubles with it autoplaying. I tried the shortcode autoplay=”false” and the vice versa but nothing seems to work :( do you have any suggestions?
-
That is odd. It should default to autoplay=”false” . I’ve asked our developers to take a look & will let you know what we find.

Hi @toby3141, so we found out Twitch made a few updates, and we had to update our end. You’ll want to be sure to use autoplay=”false” now since it does default to true.
We’ve also added support for options that mute a video or start playback at a specific time. I’ve updated the docs accordingly. Cheers!

@supernovia
Will you please see that the Twitch plugin is included in this support doc https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/? -
@timethief we’d count this more as a supported embed rather than a plugin. I’ll mention that to the team though to see what they think.
-
OK @timetheif, I added a list item about embedded audio and video, and linked to the pages that list supported types. Cheers :)
