ParticipantDoes anyone know if I can have a list of what is live right now? Can’t find a shortcode for that.
I have also added custom fields (with jet engine) but for some reason, it doesn’t show up
Any ideas are more than welcome!

ModeratorHello Jesper,
You can check which channels are live by going to “My Account” on WpStream and “Your Live Events”. It will show all your events and whether they are recorded or not, and if they are live. I am not sure what you mean by custom fields.
Please let me know if this is what you are looking for.

ParticipantHi Beatrice,
Appreciate the quick response! Though I was hoping for a way to display on my homepage which broadcasts are live now for a regular visitor to hop right in.
When I couldn’t find that option I added two custom fields when setting up a stream, where you enter your title, description etc. A field saying starting at this time and ends at this time. This way I can display live streams on the homepage. Though when I create a custom field it doesn’t show up.
Thanks

ParticipantHi Beatrice
Great to hear – though I will be needing it quite soon.
If anyone is curious I found a workaround. Adding custom fields did work with ACF – so I will have the streamer adding their estimated start time and estimated end time and then I display all broadcasts in between these time on the homepage as “live now”. It won’t be as accurate but close enough.
Thanks!
