Bear With Me, I’m Testing a New Comment System

I think this new comment system will be cool, but right now I’m kinda worried that some comments look lost, the comment system seems upside-down, etc. Leave me a comment if you can on the Disqus system…let’s see if I can get this thing to work.

  • I just installed Disqus on my site (which, as you know, is seldom besmirched by outside commentary).

    So far it's pretty cool, though I did find that I had to restart the import process several times to get all the comments in. Don't know if that's a Disqus or a WordPress issue.

    Whatever the case, this was a really cool idea. Thanks for plugging it, Frank1
  • Howard, I must say I'm even happier with it now, especially when I find blogs that have it installed. Good for you. I didn't have a smooth start either...but after a couple of weeks I'm thinking of installing it on KnowHR. That's a big leap.
  • And I forgot to mention that I love the ability to rate comments up or down. That's pretty much useless on my site, but in general, I like judging other people's commentary, so...
    ;)
  • So how does this look?
  • That works...but I'm still bothered because the comment box is at the top. I told it to move...it's misbehaving.
  • Looks great so far.
  • Testing this bad boy. C'mon, don't screw this up.
  • That's actually a great example of Disqus failing. I didn't see your comment and just added another.
  • This is exactly what I'm afraid of. And guess what? It compromised my old comments, so now I'm super nervous. Ugh...let's see...it ate some, and now it won't reconfigure. Yikes. I will uninstall it by tomorrow if it doesn't reconcile.
