The issue is two-fold    WordPress reformats the YouTube link You need a custom embed link to support a live stream embed   As a prerequisite  as of August  2016   you need to link an AdSense account and then turn on monetization in your YouTube channel  It s a painful change that broke a lot of live streams    You will need to use the following URL format for the embed    lt iframe width  560  height  315  src  https   www youtube com embed live stream channel CHANNEL ID amp autoplay 1  frameborder  0  allowfullscreen gt  lt  iframe gt    The  amp autoplay 1 is not necessary  but I like to include it  Change CHANNEL to your channel s ID  One thing to note is that WordPress may reformat the URL once you commit your change  Therefore  you ll need a plugin that allows you to use raw code and not have it override  Using a custom PHP code plugin can help and you would just echo the code like so    lt  php echo   lt iframe width  560  height  315  src  https   www youtube com embed live stream channel CHANNEL ID amp autoplay 1  frameborder  0  allowfullscreen gt  lt  iframe gt      gt    Let me know if that worked for you
