* [RFI] Using DISQUS on certain pages

Hello orgsters,

Suppose I have a project defined (say, "org-blog") that I use to
generate blog posts, and I want to use Disqus to track comments.
Further suppose I don't want to use a templating framework such as
jekyll to transform org into HTML. Does anyone have experience
inserting disqus code into preambles/postambles?

So far, I've defined a few variables in my projects file, but I'd just
like to know if there are any best-practices or tips anyone can share
who has emarked upon a similar quest before.

Better to ask know, when I'm awake, than when I'm tired after
bug-squashing my own amateur, careless programming.

Thanks in advance!
Jeff

Yes, and it works great.  If you want to see a working example  take a
look at http://greaterskies.com.  The source code, including the
org-mode setup and headers, footers and jekyll extras, is at
https://github.com/juanre/Greater-Skies.  The blog part (not at all
obvious on the web, just used to enable subscriptions) is done with
org-jekyll, https://github.com/juanre/org-jekyll.

Hope it helps.

ps.  My personal web is also done like that, all org-mode and org-jekyll.

Juan,

Thanks for sharing! I had run across your personal page before,
probably linked from worg. I think Greater Skies is a very inspiring
project, and must be rewarding to work on.

So, if I've gleaned from the source correctly, you've defined a custom
postamble and put both pieces of code Disqus generates into the
postamble? I wasn't sure whether I should separate them or if it would
matter. Also, I didn't see if you needed to use the #diqus_comments
id, as disqus suggests, in order to get it to work.

Thanks again!
Jeff

Thank you very much.  It is indeed very rewarding, but only in the
rare occasions when I find the time to work on it.  Will keep moving,
though.

I put them on the templates in jekyll's  _layouts.  Then you can
choose which layout to use with an html chunk at the beginning of each
org file, like

---------------- Beginning of file
#+begin_html
#+include: "../../../loc/en.yml"
date:   2008-04-15
layout: page
---
#+end_html

I don't know.  I set it up quite a while ago, it might have changed.
But what's there seems to work.

The whole setup is kind of tricky, because I wanted to support a
multilanguage site that wasn't a nightmare to update, but I think the
above covers what you need.

Best,

jm
