Disqus (Issue)

Drupal 6, Newest Disqus Module

Here is how i installed it. (yes im new at this, but again, these small issues really bother me!)

(i copy pasted this from a response i was going to make, but i figured it would work better in its own topic)

Once you install the module, enable it, and disable the default comment module (drupal core)
Next visit www.disqus.com and register your website
Then visit admin/setting find Disqus, and enter your website info (make sure enable it in the nodes you want the comments visible in) Nodes = Story, Page, Blog etc..
After you register your website find the option to install the generic code. Dont mess with the other applications like "movable type, blogger and so forth)

· Custom integration: Install the generic code

There are 2 codes. Install both as directed in the instructions. It doesnt tell you exactly where to put the code. So i simply put the code in my page.tpl.php (code #1 under content) For whatever reason i tested mine out on the bottom content. Put Snippet code #1 under every section you want there to be comments viewable.

When i view my site, if i scroll down to the bottom of my page, i will see the Disqus comment section on my very last story/page.

However.. if i click on "comments" on any of my stories/pages/blogs (which i enabled) I now have a section to post comments via Disqus.

Code #2 which they say is "optional" i just put that right before my /body tag. No clue what it does, but no errors so far.

But here is my problem. I can now post comments on all my story content. But i cant get the Combination Widget (Block) to work. I also have several other blocks which were created with my Disqus install, which i enabled, but i dont see any info.

Maybe i have to wait for a while before they becomes viewable, but i cant be sure.

There are also widgets which i can copy paste into my own custom blocks if i wish (direct for Disqus.com) But i cant see the text/content. (the widgets are limited, gray, red, blue, green, orange) My site has WHITE text. So if i enable their widgets, i cant see the words.

Its very frustrating. The blocks that came with the install don't work. And the widgets i can copy/paste don't work. The comments work fine though.

Im thinking maybe i should have put the code in my node.tpl.php or somewhere else. No clue!
