  1. POCan't get Disqus commenting to work on Github Page Blog
    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to add comments to my github page blog, and nothing happens when I add the code. No matter where I paste it. I've tried three different approaches so far:</p> <ol> <li><p>Per the <a href="http://jekyllbootstrap.com/usage/blog-configuration.html" rel="nofollow">JB installation documentation</a>, I specified "disqus" as the provider and added my disqus short_name in my _config.yml file. That actually should have done it because the Jekyll Bootstrap ships with the JS widget that disqus provides when you sign up for an account. It's in the includes folder.</p></li> <li><p>Since that didn't work, I found the widget and added an include statement to my post.html template referencing it. This also didn't work.</p></li> <li><p>Since none of that worked (and I still insist I shouldn't have to paste the JS since it's already included with JB, but I was desperate at this point), I pasted the JS that disqus provided when I signed up for my account in the post.html in layouts and includes - I did this one at a time, testing each time I pasted. </p></li> </ol> <p>Each time I did this, my page didn't change at all. It was like I did nothing.</p> <p>I've googled this to death, and looked at the source of <a href="https://github.com/staceybaker1974/erjjones.github.com" rel="nofollow">another github page that's successfully using disqus</a> - the only thing that looked different is that he has his JS pasted into a layout.html page - I don't have one of those. I only have post &amp; page. And I'm definitely trying to add comments to my posts, not my pages.</p>
