Disqus is an increasingly popular choice for adding discussion and community features to web content.
To enable Community Features using Disqus, you must first register a "Site" with Disqus that uniquely identifies the content you will be using Disqus Community Features in and then configure the settings on the Community Features page in the Build Profile Editor.
Register a Site on Disqus
Open the Build Profile Editor and select the Community Features page.
Tick the Include Community Features option.
Select Disqus from the Community Provider drop down.
Under the Settings heading, click the Create New button (or visit https://disqus.com/admin/signup/). If you already have a Disqus account you wish to use, select the Log in tab, otherwise select the Sign Up tab and complete the Disqus sign up process.
Once you are logged in, you will arrive at the What would you like to do with Disqus page:
Click the I want to install Disqus on my site button. The Create a new site page will be displayed:
Choose a Website Name to identify your documentation project. The name you choose will be used as the first part of the disqus url that identifies your documentation, so choose a name that is descriptive of your documentation content. This must be a unique name across sites using Disqus so you may wish to prefix with your company name, e.g. "fabrikam-documentation".
You may wish to click the Customize Your URL link below the Website Name field - this will allow you to specify a Website Name and Disqus Url Shortname separately. This is a useful option as you can make your Website Name descriptive, but choose a short name without spaces for use in the Diqus Url.
Click the Create Site button to complete your Disqus Site Registration. You will then be taken to a Select a plan page:
Select the plan you wish to use.
Once you have selected a plan, the What platform is your site on? page will be displayed
Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the I don't see my platform listed, install manually with Universal Code button. This will take you to a setup instructions page; the instructions themselves are not needed as the integration is managed automatically once you have configured your project to use Disqus for Community Features.
Configure the Build Profile to use Disqus for Community Features
Once your project has been configured for Community Features you will find the Moderate Content and Manage Settings are enabled on the Community Features page in the Build Profile Editor. Those butons will launch a browser that will take you to the correct page on your chosen Community Provider's website.
Once you have Built and Published your project after configuring the Community Features page, you will also be able to view and manage community content directly within the Topic Editor and Content File Editor and of course directly in the generated output.
