The Disqus Plugin adds an element that displays a Disqus commenting area in the app. Please setup your Disqus account before getting started with the plugin. Learn more about setting up a Disqus account in Setup.

Disqus shortname

This is the account reference with Disqus. Your shortname is the subdomain of your Disqus site. For example, if my shortname is 'bubbletesting', my Disqus url will be bubbletesting.disqus.com. Learn more about Disqus shortnames and how to set up your Disqus account here.

Disqus identifier

Enter a unique text identifier for the page the element is placed on. The Disqus identifier is used to look up a Disqus thread in the Disqus-system so that the proper comments are loaded. Learn more about Disqus identifiers here.

Disqus title

Enter a unique title for the page the element is placed on.

Disqus URL

Enter the unique URL for the page the element is placed on.

Disqus category

Enter the category for your Disqus site. The category is used to organize threads in a forum (shortname). Learn more about Disqus categories here.

Setup

Setting up your Disqus account and site

Go to Disqus.com and log in or register for a new account.

Once you have an account, you'll need to create a new site. Enter the relevant details in the onboarding form and continue through the onboarding wizard.

Note: You'll use these details later when setting up the plugin element.

Installing the Disqus plugin

Once you have completed all of the onboarding steps, you can install the Disqus plugin for free in the plugins gallery and then add a Disqus element to a page in your Bubble app.

Setting up the Disqus element

Once you add the Disqus element to your page, you'll need to enter the shortname and category in the Property Editor. You specified these values when creating your Disqus site.

And that's it, you are ready to go!
