## Project Description

# lektor-disqus-comments

This plugin adds support for Disqus comments to Lektor. Once the plugin is enabled a `render_disqus_comments` function which can render a disqus comment box.

## Enabling the Plugin

To enable the plugin add this to your project file:

    $ lektor plugins add lektor-disqus-comments

## Configuring the Plugin

The plugin has a config file that is needed to inform it about your website. Just create a file named `disqus-comments.ini` into your `configs/` folder and configure the `shortname` key with the name of your disqus community:

    shortname = YOUR_SHORTNAME

## In Templates

Now you can add a discussion box to any of your templates by just using the `render_disqus_comments` function. Just calling it is enough to get the comment box:

    <div class="comments">{{ render_disqus_comments() }}</div>

Optionally the function accepts a few arguemnts:

- `identifier` and `url` can be used to forcefully override the automatically detected defaults.
- `title` can be used to set a title for the discussion that overrides the title that disqus takes from the page's title tag otherwise.
- `category_id` sets the category id. Look at the disqus documentation for more information.
