For easy googling: it's Disqus :smiley:

@sijbrandij Can you create the Disqus account for the website?

[jacobvosmaer]

It looks like we need to paste some special html/javascript code in the app to show the comments. Do you see that code anywhere in your Disqus account @sijbrandij ?

[sijbrandij]

Yes, I have it here:

1. Place the following code where you'd like Disqus to load:

<div id="disqus_thread"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        /* * * CONFIGURATION VARIABLES: EDIT BEFORE PASTING INTO YOUR WEBPAGE * * */
        var disqus_shortname = 'railsgirlsnl'; // required: replace example with your forum shortname

        /* * * DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE * * */
        (function() {
            var dsq = document.createElement('script'); dsq.type = 'text/javascript'; dsq.async = true;
            dsq.src = '//' + disqus_shortname + '.disqus.com/embed.js';
            (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(dsq);
        })();
    </script>
    <noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view the <a href="http://disqus.com/?ref_noscript">comments powered by Disqus.</a></noscript>
    <a href="http://disqus.com" class="dsq-brlink">comments powered by <span class="logo-disqus">Disqus</span></a>

1. (Optional) See our JavaScript configuration variables documentation for ways to further customize the Disqus embed code.

How to display comment count

1. Place the following code before your site's closing </body> tag:

 <script type="text/javascript">
    /* * * CONFIGURATION VARIABLES: EDIT BEFORE PASTING INTO YOUR WEBPAGE * * */
    var disqus_shortname = 'railsgirlsnl'; // required: replace example with your forum shortname

    /* * * DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE * * */
    (function () {
        var s = document.createElement('script'); s.async = true;
        s.type = 'text/javascript';
        s.src = '//' + disqus_shortname + '.disqus.com/count.js';
        (document.getElementsByTagName('HEAD')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('BODY')[0]).appendChild(s);
    }());
    </script>

1. Append #disqus_thread to the href attribute in your links. This will tell Disqus which links to look up and return the comment count. For example: Link.
