We use a editorial system called Woodwing Enterprise to create the Drupal nodes.

Because of this, the "Enable Disqus comments"-checkbox is turned off every single time we update the node from Woodwing.

Would it be possible to tell Disqus to always turn this option ON, as long as we do not tell it to turn it off?

Today, the defaylt is off.

If the alter mysql, to default write 1 in status, it is still value 0 after editing from Woodwing.

I am experiencing similar issues. When using the Blog API in Drupal, after a post is made, the Disqus comments are not enabled. I have to manually go into each post and enable them.

Is there a way to have Disqus comments automatically enabled with posts made using the Drupal Blog API?

Just chiming in on this issue as well. I've created a custom content type using CCK, and the "enable disqus comments" is not checked by default on new content. I was wracking my brain trying to find how to set it to "checked" by default, and am glad to see I'm not going crazy!

I am having a somewhat similar issue. "Enable Disqus comments" is checked by default for my custom content types, but when the content is published, comments are not visible. If I then edit that newly created node, the "Enable Disqus comments" is no longer checked in the node edit form and has to be checked and saved for disqus comments to work for that node.

Any ideas?
