DISQUS

Blake Samic · 1 year ago

I'm thinking I'll add in the Disqus plugin tomorrrow, and I'll probably change that title font...

Looks awesome. I would definitely use DISQUS and I would keep the font title, it looks sweet as is.
Well done.

Blake Samic · 1 year ago

You're right. After I figured out how to import all the old comments, DISQUS was a definite improvement. I liked how you summed it up on your blog (http://ryanagraves.com/08/29/2008/conversation-...)

You didn't see the title font until I already changed it ;-) Compare the site with the screen shot above. (screen shot was the older font)

Testing Disqus...

How did you make it so that it displays the text posts on your front page instead of the thumbnails? I love your header photo.

I edited the index.php page.

Originally it looked like this:
[
<div class="home fix">
<div class="main">
<div class="fix">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

<!-- thumbnail wrapper -->
<div class="thumb main">

<!-- 235150image-covers -->
<?php $image = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'thumbnail', true); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" alt="" />
<!-- 235150image end -->

<!-- thumbanil title -->
<div class="thumb-title">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?>
<?php comments_number('{0}', '{1}', '{%}' );?></h2>
</div>
<!-- thumbanil title end -->

</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php else : ?>
<div class="post single">
<h2>No matching results</h2>
<div class="entry">

You seem to have found a mis-linked page or search query with no associated or related results.

</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
]



And I changed it to this:
[
<div class="home fix">
<div class="main">
<div class="fix">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post single fix" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></h2>
<div class="postMeta">
<span class="comments"><?php comments_number('No comments', '1 comment', '% comments' );?></span>
<span class="date"> // <?php the_time('M jS, Y') ?> // <?php the_category(', ') ?></span>
</div>

<div class="entry">
<?php the_content('

'); ?>



</div>




</div>
<?php endwhile; else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
]

@madboarder do you have any idea how to add another RSS feed to the side bar? I want just the titles to show up.

Teecycle_Tim · 1 year ago

Looks great. Very personalized look. Nice job!

madboarder · 1 year ago

@Blake I know that Wordpress has a widget that does that so I guess if you checked the code for that maybe? I'm not much of a code junkie :P

How did you get Disqus to import your old comments? Mine just says "Unprocessed" after I imported them...

Blake Samic · 1 year ago

Not sure what the Disqus problem is. It just worked for me when I
followed the instructions on their site. You might want to follow up
with them.
