Exemple of request error shown in php logs when trying to export from a Wordpress 2.6 blog:
WordPress database error Table 'veilleperso.wp_categories' doesn't exist for query SELECT cat_ID, cat_name, category_nicename, category_description, category_parent, posts_private, links_private FROM wp_categories LEFT JOIN wp_post2cat ON (category_id = cat_id) LEFT JOIN wp_posts ON (post_id <=> id) GROUP BY cat_id made by dsq_export_wp
And indeed, wp_categories and wp_post2cat are not used anymore. The categories system now use the tables: wp_term_taxonomy, wp_term_relationships and wp_terms
Are you going to fix this soon?
Thanks

A local script that spoke to disqus behind-the-scenes would go a long way to win over the remaining blog-base!
verification link to work.
Someone cannot create a different account and have you click on the
link.
Otherwise, you can find that here: http://disqus.com/admin/tools/
The format is XML. RSS 2.0 is supported and will make its return shortly.
I received a "Export Status: Error".
Anything I can do? I have years and years of comments that need to be exported and imported for you so I'm wondering if there's a limit.
I'd love to use disqus on every post, especially the older ones.
"Import status: Error

"Notice: Undefined variable: num_comments in /var/www/vhosts/blog.usweb.com/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/disqus/disqus.php on line 96"
Is anyone else getting this?
Popup profiles don't seem to be rendering properly in Mozilla 2.0. Maybe that's just me. Also, why didn't you release the small popup profile that's being shown in various places? The big popup profile just gets in the way. Is this a page view thing or are you just unwilling to release features globally or ... ?
When I do login from IE or Opera, I'm having an error importing old comments:
through all the issues we're seeing with the importer, and if you're
seeing an error, we'll fix this from our side and it should
automatically update when it is completed.
tab which has a button which allows you to export your WordPress
comments to Disqus.
think), there is a bullet list of "Manage" and "Advanced Options" but I
can't click on either... just below it says "DISQUS Comment System" and
shows me a window of latest comments. Could you be more specific about
where I'm supposed to go because I've looked everywhere...
It looks like your plugin is installed in disqus_new instead of disqus. The plugin needs to be in a directory called disqus for it to get all the styles properly. Hope that helps.
it still doesn't give me the option to click on advanced... I then tried
it using IE7 instead of FF3 (on a whim), and there I can get to the
advanced tab. Weird.
You forgot to mention the minor changes in the "leave comments box" ;) - the 3 Radio buttons...
Congrats again!!

to click a button from the plugin to export your comments from
WordPress to Disqus.
Cheers
One thing, tho... since updating, the comments count on one of my blog's stories shows 3x the actual number (39 vs. 13). Any ideas? Am I missing something?

Keep it up! Thanks,

Any chance there will be a Tumblr plugin?
I'm getting dangerously close to hitting the Uninstall button. The lack of adequate (or easy to find) documentation to continue showing earlier comments is frustrating to say the least.
I'm also concerned that my commenters (and myself!) no longer have the ability to edit comments. I hope this is a feature that will be implemented in 2.0.1.
Thanks guys :o)
Rats.
Thanks!

But I must say, it took me quite a while to figure out how to reply.
Perhaps, on the Admin page, you can add a reply button at the end of each comment so the Admin can reply to the people that commented on their blog/website.
1) I can't get it to update from legacy mode. I've entered my username and password, clicked on my blog name and then next and it says there's been an error and to email you guys. I'm not happy so I'm commenting. Especially given I've got a couple more things I want to comment on.
2) The lack of a way to search through the help files is really annoying and daunting when you're having an issue. I'm all for helping myself and finding a solution to my own problems, but I won't comb through 25+ pages of posts to find what I need.
3) You need to have clear uninstall and port comments back to WP instructions somewhere within the files of the plugin, in the readme.txt would be ideal.
I love Disqus but it's complicating my blogging rather than enhancing at the moment. ;)
I'm really sorry about the frustrating issues you're having. Let's see
if I can help.
1) We'll try to find out what the issue is and get back to you soon.
If you email us at help@disqus.com it will be filed so we don't miss
the problem.
2) No search is annoying, but we haven't had much time to work on
search just yet.
3) Uninstalling is a simple matter of clicking "Uninstall" in the
Advanced Options. Your comments are auto backed up if they were synced
in the first place.
"not able to access site."
I have the same issue. Removing disqus from our site fixes the problem. We are not using WP, rather we using the JS code.
fixes this issue?
There may be a conflict and I'd like to make sure this is the case.
Apart from removing mootools, would you have any suggested work arounds.
Also, note that Firebug in Firefox reveals a number of CSS warnings which are not overly nice frlom the Disqus style sheet.
no impact on non-IE browsers.
Mootools conflicts with the get_num_replies script that retrieves the
comment count. There is not a true workaround at the moment, but we're
still investigating.
The redirected homepage once logged into the account is a bit odd/confusing. I think retaining the front page (as you see when logged off) with a sidebar of recent comments would be more helpful.
EDIT: uhhh, second thought, I think I'm used to how it is hah.
has not even heard of the Disqus system.
Perhaps a viewable log can be kept of automatically and manually claimed comments. This will allow the user to review anything that was automatically claimed and unclaim, delete, or edit the comments. This would allow the user to handle rare cases where someone else has acted as an impostor with the user's email address.
I'm sure there are a lot of Disqus users that are quite active commenting in the blogosphere (as I try to be) in non-Disqus commenting systems that may eventually switch over. I have posted comments on probably over a dozen different blogs, and if any one of them switch to Disqus, unless it is a blog I frequent I will have no idea that the switch was made. It would be nice to just have Disqus automatically claim the comments for me.
Unfortunately, not yet. It's still sitting on our to-do list as we
address some larger issues. We do have immediate plans for it.
Now if only we could get these v2 features in the Movable Type plugin as well...
Please explain how this happened, and what steps you've taken to stop it happening again. I have a responsibility to my site visitors to protect their personal data. And so do you.
I've been with Disqus a matter of weeks only, moving from IntenseDebate because I liked what I saw here. But if this happens just once, it's reason to doubt my decision. And if this means my commentator's name and email address were available around the world to anyone, then I have inadvertently opened him or her up to all manner of spam and abuse. Yeah. Thanks Disqus!
So please, let me know what's happening. ASAP.
Apart of the above, I felt that Disqus should have more features implemented such as the number of comments commented, the day and date that the comment is written etc..
This are some of my thoughts and hope that it will be taken into considerations.
What language ?
