A&R: Disqus Commenting Enabled

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

If you were on Asphalt & Rubber this weekend, you probably noticed that I switched the commenting system from WordPress’ basic system to Disqus’ more advanced commenting engine.

All previous comments should be imported now, and I hope there are relatively few bugs to reports. Hopefully this will mean a more engaged commenting section, since Disqus handles threaded comments more properly, and has already a good community following.

The slight downside is that some of our loyal commenters will have to register with the Disqus service, though that shouldn’t be too much of an issue since it is a very reputable one, and they won’t spam you once you register.

On the Disqus site, you can select whether to get immediate updates, daily digests, or weekly digests from A&R, which can help with the inbox overflow too.

We’ve got some more changes coming in the next few weeks, namely a better gallery system and a mobile version of the site: two things we should have had long ago, and two things I get many complaints about. Never fear, I hear your words, and often feel your pain.

Back to our regularly scheduled program…and you should call your mother, she misses you.
