Streamlining Comments

Posted on the 20 May 2012 by Brenda @PibblesNHeathen
Good morning all! Well, it looks like the importing of Comments has been completed, although, not as pretty as I would have liked. It seems when Disqus imported the Blogger comments, it did not thread them. (one can only assume it didn't realize which comment went with which).

Needless to say, it has been completed, per my Disqus Dashboard. Why Disqus? Well, to be honest, I would have preferred to add IntenseDebate so I could utilize CommentLuv on this blog, however, ID is very flukey with Blogger and not a good install.
Disqus offers some features that Blogger Commenting system does not. The best, is the Social Integration (being able to login via Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo, etc).
The Liking and Sharing box with a touch of a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down".
Profiles, like Gravatar. Big plus and easy to access a Commenter's blog site or other social networking sites.
Moderation tools are a plus and well as SPAM BE GONE! I haven't had issues with Spam comments as of yet but on my Wordpress blog I did. I used Akismet and it caught the majority. Useful tool btw, for Wordpress users.
There are many more perks to using Disqus and if you're not already, have peek at the Extended Disqus Features.
Disqus also works with several of the blogging platforms, including Wordpress. :)
Anyway, just wanted to give you a "heads up" on the Disqus. If you run into any issues with it, please let me know immediately and I'll looking into it.
Thank you again, as always, for the support and friendship! Muwah!
