New Comments System: Disqus

Started by Vlad Zablotskyy · 1 year ago

I has been a while since I first time saw Disqus. I believe it was on one of the Sam Harrelson’s blogs. But it did not took long for this new way of managing blog comments to begin spread.

Yesterday I decided to give it a try. As of now I am allowing Disqus to manage […]

  • Hey Vlad-

    Again, Iove Disqus b/c it solves two big problems I had as a blogger:

    1) Spam and authenticity
    2) Sustaining conversations that were happening in the comments and letting people know about those conversations. I'm a big user and advocate of RSS, so the RSS integration is great as well.

    Enjoy and let us know how the experiment goes!

  • Sam,

    The fact that you can answer to the comments straight from your e-mail is
    great. I am writing this response in my Gmail.... That is so sweet!
  • Yep, no doubt! I'm using Mail.app on the Mac and it works great!
    Definitely a time saver.

  • Hmmm. yours looks quite different than mine, Vlad. Wondering if you'ere using the "stable" version of the plugin vs. the "beta".
  • Scott,

    I have the stable version. There are few setting as it comes to how the
    comments are viewed. But this e-mail thing is driving me nuts lol.... in a
    good sense. That is so sweet.
  • Also, Vlad, be sure to add your Disqus account to your FriendFeed.
  • Thanks.... It look though that switching to a bate plugin will not be a problem.... But it has to wait. My wife is getting a little upset with me. Going out shopping.
  • Crap.... don't mind my misspellings lol
  • Yeah, look like you're using the "stable" plugin Vlad as your comments are being served up in Javascript. They won't be visible to Search Engines.

    The Beta uses Disqus' API and loads the comments on the server-side and includes them in the post. You might want to switch over to that if you care about these comments being in your post's HTML available to search engines.
  • Is the beta plugin serving comments in php?
  • Yes. Do a view source on my disqus blog post. I'm using the beta.

    Btw, I did get the trackback in wp for this post, but it won't show
    because it didn't go to disqus.

  • From what I see I need to "redo the integration" for the beta plugin to
    install. I wonder if I am going to loose all these comments. I guess there
    is one way to find out.
  • Scott,

    Is thee a way to serve trackbacks in WordPress outside the comments.php???
  • Good question. yes, I do believe so. Would take some template
    modifications, but that's a good call. I'll look into that.
  • This comment came in e-mail only with the first paragraph. That's why I asked that question.
  • Ok, the API verstion looks weird with my theme
  • Finally found a theme that works well with Disqus..... Scott, if I am not mistake our theme are designed by the same guy.
  • Just noticed that if you are using FeedBurner feed-flares, the comment count feed flare is not compatible with Disqus... I if you are aware of a "Disqus Comment Count" feed flare, please let me know.

    I can't get enough of Disqus though. What a great solution!
