Disqus commenting system add-on for Kotti

This is an extension to the Kotti CMS that adds a commenting system to your site. It uses Disqus, so you need to register an account there before you can use it.

Setup

To activate the kotti_disqus add-on in your Kotti site, you need to add an entry to the kotti.configurators setting in your Paste Deploy config. If you don’t have a kotti.configurators option, add one. kotti_disqus depends on kotti_settings so you need to add a line for this add-on too:

kotti.configurators =
    kotti_settings.kotti_configure
    kotti_disqus.kotti_configure

You can change some settings at the settings page (http://your.domain/@@settings or use the submenu of “Site Setup”).

Option	Explanation
Disqus Shortname	The shortname you registered at Disqus. Necessary for the commenting system to work!
Disqus Base URL	Change the base URL - useful if you move your site to another URL but want to keep your comments. Will use the current URL if not set.
Disqus Available Types	Select the types on which you want to enable comments. You can select from all types available to Kotti via kotti.available_types. If nothing is selected, comments won’t appear so be sure to select at least one of these.

If you need to include a type not available in kotti.available_types or want to force an option that can never be disabled, you can do so via kotti_disqus.extra_types, such as:

kotti_disqus.extra_types =
    kotti.resources.Document
    kotti.resources.Image
