I have come across this Disqus Comment System from some of the social media blog such as Mashable.com.
I found it quite interesting, even the interface not really that attracting. But the integration and functionality for blog commenting is nice =)
You may need to register a Disqus account in order to integrate one into your blog. But it is free, no harm to try it. And when using Disqus comment system, your blog reader can choose to login in some integrated account or they can post as anonymous as they like.
So, how to add one into your blog? Here is it…
First, Register one Disqus account.
Just go to http://disqus.com/profile/ and register one free account.
It just have few line there, follow the steps lar then, hahah
Second, Register your blog with Disqus
And now you go to http://disqus.com/comments/register/ and register your blog.
Third, Setting up.
Select the functions available that you desired. (Akismet is for WordPress blog)
Forth, Choose your blog platform.
Actually is very easy for WordPress and Blogspot.
>> For WordPress
Very simple.. Go to Add New plugin.
Then, find using keyword “Disqus Comment System” and install it.
Once done, go to Comments >> Disqus and login. You will be able to play with the settings there =)
>> For Blogspot
You will need some patience to do it =) And it is advise to use a temporary blog to try out your installation first yea.
Choose Blogger icon, then it will lead you to a installation page.
Just follow the steps there as what it stated. And at step 3, it will re-direct you to your blogspot (or blogspot login page) when you click on “Add the…” that button
Just login and choose your blog.
Once it is done integrated into your blogspot, go back to Disqus page and sync your older comments.
Go to http://disqus.com/comments/moderate/ and choose the blog you wan to sync. Then go to Tools >> Import/Export. And Click on the Import button
You will then re-direct to page to ask for Grant access to import the older comments.
After click on grant access, then follow the page and choose to import the comments. You will be showing a page where your comments are queued for importing.
IF,
The above method of integration didn’t work for you. You may follow using Coding access, by follow the steps in here http://disqus.com/comments/universal/(will_be_ur_blog_name_for_disqus)/
I do recommend Blogspot blogger to use the Universal method which is manually add the code into your theme to let it function.
Last, And you are done!
Enjoy!! hahah
