Disqus comments not working #33

Closed ketanbhatt closed 9 years ago

ketanbhatt commented 9 years ago

By default disqus had a problem connecting to their server.

I saw that if I remove "disqus_title", " disqus_URL" and "disqus_identifier" from templates/page.html, it worked fine. Please look into it

abakan-zz commented 9 years ago

Was it a single page or all pages? If a single page, can you copy contents? Was it when you served files locally?

ketanbhatt commented 9 years ago

I tried it on just one post because I was in the test period.

Happened both locally and on github pages.

When I removed the said lines from the HTML, it started working normally.

abakan-zz commented 9 years ago

Maybe your title had a special character in it. Can you point to rst source if it's available online?

ketanbhatt commented 9 years ago

I thought too that was the case and so I removed everything I thought would be causing a problem. Didn't help.

Only removing those three lines from the templste helped. When I used Jekyll to build my blog, I manually copied the for from disqus's website to my template. That code didn't have those lines too, and that's how I thought of removing them from ablog templates too.

No, the source code isn't available online now, but I can upload if that will help, but I don't think there is a problem with that otherwise it wouldn't have worked at all.

Maybe do some tests at your end to check this out?

Source .rst would help debugging. Was this the title "Git Your B'Day Caps Ready!"? \' needs escaping.

ketanbhatt commented 9 years ago

I removed the ' completely after reading the guidelines given in disqus community.

And again, it shouldn't have worked for the same title when I removed the three lines of code.

I think I will try it again with two three posts and let you know with screenshots

So, I tested ablog. I made no changes to any rst file. "First Post" is made out of the box with "ablog start". "New Post" is made with "ablog post ".

I tested both the pages, same trouble. Then I edited the templates for one of them, here are the results:

FIRST POST with no edits: first post testing ablog documentation

NEW POST with disqus tags removed (except disqus shortname): new post testing ablog documentation

Ketan, thanks for following up with this issue. I have been able to reproduce it. disqus_url causes a problem when blog_baseurl is not set. I removed it from page template, and disqus loaded fine in my tests.
