The Micro Website Template comes already with a Disqus forum, but any micro website needs to have its own Disqus forum.

To add a Disqus forum to your website please do the following:

  • create a new Disqus forum on https://disqus.com/
  • jump to Configure Disqus and copy the Website Name (please be sure it's lowercase and with no spaces)
  • now open the disqus.html file inside the /_includes/ folder of the repository
  • find the
var disqus_shortname = 'microwebsitetemplate';
  • change the disqus_shortname variable to your Website Name, as in
var disqus_shortname = 'yourwebsitename';
