Introduction

Social Web, Articles comments, Social Comments

Disqus Comments (for Joomla) integrates the popular Disqus comments system & service into any Joomla! based website. Disqus (pronounced 'discuss') is a service and tool for web comments and discussions - currently the most popular comments-as-a-service provider worldwide. It makes commenting easier and more interactive, while connecting websites and commenters across a thriving discussion community.


In short, the most important features of the service are realtime comments, inline media embedding, mobile commenting, social integration with Twitter, Facebook & other services and great moderation & anti-spam tools.

WHY CHOOSE DISQUS? HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DISQUS COMMENT SYSTEM

Web comments can be difficult for both websites and their readers. We think Disqus is the solution. Disqus makes it easier for people to comment and track their contributions on a single profile which they can display as a comment blog. After all, there is no difference between a great comment and a great published article.

Disqus makes managing discussions on one or multiple websites painless. With a powerful and intuitive admin interface, Disqus allows website owners to spend time elsewhere while Disqus takes care of the comments.

also made my site go blank



Posted on 08 November 2012
Have always loved this product, and was excited with the update. Immediate download, and it also went blank immediately. A removal and it went back to normal
I would not advise installing this plugin, as it made my entire site (2.5) go blank after customizing the plugin (setting the domain and such). This set me back a whole day, and I lost some data.



Very poor plugin, do not install!

Simply Excellent

I'm fully satisfied with this extension. It does all I need and more.



Keep up with the good work guys.

Great Extension

Great Extension in terms of ease of use and styling but I don't understand why it doesn't link to the Joomla user database.



Commenters can log in via twitter, Facebook, Google+, and others but if they already have an account on your site, they can't just use their credentials from that to post. It doesn't make sense to me.
Owner's reply: That question applies to Disqus (the service) and the short answer is that, being a web service, it's not meant to integrate that deeply into Joomla!. E.g. it's got benefits (like the anti-spam features) which could never be implemented into a Joomla! commenting system.

Great Idea

This is great someone integrated this into Joomla. Disqus is the best comment system and this extension works great. I hope they continue to develop this.

Love it

Simple to use both to administrator and user. No need to custom styling. It just fits to every template. Awesome.

Love Disqus

I use disqus as my comment system on 3 different websites, 2 wordpress and one joomla which I am new too. All three were easy to set up and a breeze to customize with CSS as you'd expect with disqus!



Now if I could only to figure out why disqus is above my social sharing buttons.

Works fine!
