How to embed a stream with an iframe

An iframe puts the streaming platform's own player inside your event page,
so attendees watch without leaving Peewah.


It works with anything that generates embed code: YouTube Live, Vimeo,
Twitch, Dacast, Wowza, and most others.



1. Get the embed code


Create your stream on whichever platform you use, then find its Embed or
Share → Embed option and copy the code. It looks like this:


<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/VIDEO_ID"
width="640" height="360"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>


⚠️ Copy the whole <iframe …></iframe> tag, not just the URL inside it.
Pasting only the URL is the most common reason the player comes out blank.



2. Paste it into your event


1. Go to General → Stages.


2. Open the stage where the session happens and click the Streaming
icon.


3. Choose Embed iframe.


4. Paste the code and save.



3. Test it before the day


Open your own event page and look at the stage. The player should appear
even if the stream has not started — most platforms show a "scheduled" or
"waiting" card until you go live.


If you see nothing at all, the embed is wrong, and finding that out on the
day of the event is the expensive version of this check.
