Does anyone know what I need to do so that comments using Disqus and the Disqus module are reflected in the replies count and in the last reply date columns?

Thanks.

If I'm remembering correctly how Disqus works, the comments aren't actually Drupal comments. So they aren't going to be counted unless you hack the code to manually add them in.

If I read the Disqus module information correctly, it exposes the count of replies.

I might be able to do something with a view to use this. Are there advanced forum views in advanced forum 1.1 or would I need to move up to version 2?

When I look for advanced forum views using 1.1, I'm not seeing any.

Thanks.

The views are only in 2.x.

Once I upgraded to 2.x I was able to clone oneof the views and add the disqus replies count quite easily. By passing the forum ID to the view and setting the url properly, the advanced forum summary page "/forum" takes users to the view showing the topics from that forum with the number of disqus replies.

Now, I just need to figure the forum breadcrumbs out. I'm not seeing the option to get rid of advanced forum breadcrumbs and the advanced forum breadcrumb for forum just shows "home".

Jsibley, thanks for #4. But I think it's more of the Disqus module maintainers' job to support this feature, so I created a new issue post there for help on the other one: https://drupal.org/node/2144187

P.S. Instead of trying to get rid of the breadcrumbs, I just hid them on my site via CSS.
