Layout: Live Stream
The Live Stream Layout is a great addition to any site that offers a live, streaming service. The Live Stream layout allows you to embed your current live streaming iframe or embed code directly into the template. It comes with a Twitter feed that pulls tweets from your Twitter handle as well as two built-in Monklets for the bottom. These bottom sections are fully editable as well.

Once you have the Live Stream Layout installed by our Implementation Team, take a look at the following resource to assist in managing your Live Stream Layout.
The Live Service layout displays a number of custom items which are editable via the CMS. These are detailed below.

- This template supports up to 3 custom Sections assignable to the Livestream Page via the fields "Footer Section 1, Footer Section 2, and Footer Section 3" within the CMS
Three Sections are created in the CMS by default: - Livestream Event Highlight
