Blog Comments
A successful blog requires an engaged audience. Interaction with blog subscribers encourages them to feel as though they belong to a group and are more likely to mention the blog to others.
Comments Section
Disqus is a very well know comments engine and, best of all - it's free. It is really easy to set up and, using this widget, only requires the Disqus "shortname" to be entered. Signup for an account by clicking the "Disqus" link below.
Moderation
The moderation tools are extensive and moderators can identify trolls, spammers, and other troublesome users and even create a blacklist.
Comments Widgets
The comments section can be styled with a border and/or a box shadow and there are controls for background color and padding.
The optional heading and text can use a web safe or Google hosted font. The wrapper background color has an opacity slider and controls for maximum width and padding.
Shortname & Page ID
The user shortname is entered in the widget settings and is required.
If the comments section is inserted on more than one - or all - of the pages, there are fields for entering the page URL and an ID. The ID lets the moderator know which page the comments are about. This ID can simply be the post title and date.
