Adding Comments to your Blog

Sat 01 July 2017 by authorname

Even though pelican generates static websites you can still have dynamic comments using a third party service called Disqus.

  1. First, create a Disqus account here
  2. Once you have a Disqus account create a "new site" and point it to your github.io website. Remember the site name you used.
  3. Open up the pelican.conf file and uncomment the following line and add your site name to the script.

DISQUS_SITENAME = "YOUR SITE NAME"

That should be it. Run Pelican and push your changes to your github.io repository and you should now see comments
