Ning3 Tip: How to enable both selected comment box and disqus comment box together?

[Bernard Lama]

Hi Fellow creators,

I think you are not able to enable both selected comment box and disqus comment box together. We can only select either flat or standard or threaded or facebook or disqus or none. Please note that the following code will affect only blog post.

No worries, the following code allow you to enable both selected comment box and disqus comment box together. 

Instruction: Simply copy and paste the following code into lower custom code. Make sure that you have replaced your own Disqus Shortname. ksnonline is the Disqus Shortname which is highlighted below and this shortname is achieved from here by signing up.

<script type="text/javascript">
var disqus_shortname = 'ksnonline'; // required: replace example with your forum shortname
(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>
<script type="text/javascript">
x$(document).ready(function(){
x$(".blogDetailPage .buttonGroup.row.row-narrower1").after('<div id="disqus_thread"></div>');
});
</script>

I wish Disqus was an option on my network but it's not. When I have the option, then I could use this awesome tip!! Well done Bernard!

[Bernard Lama]

Thank you FedMedic. Hope it's working smoothly for you.

[FedMedic]

FedMedic, is Disqus comment box not appearing or what else?

[FedMedic]

Yes, the Disqus comment box is not appearing.

Please turn off Disqus comment option from Blog Page Settings and use the above code in custom code box. Then let me know what happens.
