About Twitch Status for WordPress 1.3
Twitch Status for WordPress is a WordPress plugin sold through CodeCanyon. The file on record is version 1.3, released September 2018. The name suggests it shows whether a Twitch channel is live on your site, but the listing gives no feature details.
Because the listing is thin, read the documentation in the package for what it displays, where it places it and what setup it needs. Twitch has changed its API since 2018 and now requires app credentials for most data requests, so test on a staging site and expect that older plugins may need changes to keep working.

Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Streamers who want their Twitch status shown on a WordPress site
- Gaming community sites that link to a live channel
Look elsewhere if
- Sites that need a full stream embed with chat, which the listing doesn't mention
- Anyone who can't test an older plugin against the current Twitch API
How to install Twitch Status for WordPress 1.3

Download the file

- 2

Notes for this product
- Twitch may require a registered application and client credentials. The listing doesn't state this, so check the documentation in the package.
Setup: using Twitch Status for WordPress 1.3
- Test on staging. Activate the plugin on a staging site, since the file dates from 2018.
- Read the documentation. Find the settings location and the Twitch details it needs.
- Enter your channel. Add your Twitch channel name or credentials in the plugin settings.
- Place the status. Add the shortcode or widget the documentation describes and check live and offline states.
Common problems and fixes
Status always shows offline or shows nothing
- Why it happens
- Twitch's API has changed since 2018, and older plugin code may use endpoints that no longer work without credentials.
- How to fix it
- Enter any app credentials the plugin asks for, and if it still fails, check the plugin documentation or consider an alternative.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
