Many of you had requested this feature, so we set aside our developments on GoodBarber 3 for a few hours, in order to bring this feature to GoodBarber 2. It's now ready to be used. Let me explain **how to turn on Disqus comments into your app**. ## Disqus: the Web's Community of Communities Just a few words about Disqus before diving into the settings stuff. For those who don't know, it's an online service to manage comments and discussions in your website or your app. Created in 2007, Disqus is now used by more than 3 millions websites. Used at first to manage comments, the service has evolved to become also an advertising platform. One main advantage, for the end user, is to use his Disqus account on any website using this technology, and engage in the discussion very easily. Let's see how you can use it in your GoodBarber app. ## Get your shortname ![](https://cmsphoto.ww-cdn.com/superstatic/41269/art/grande/6388002-9635681.jpg?v=1394114372.980962) First, if you want to use Disqus with GoodBarber, it means that you're already using this service on your website. Your goal now is to enable your users to make comments with Disqus on your website and on your app, and to have those comments synchronized on the two mediums. The first thing to do is to log into your Disqus account, and go to the admin panel. if you have installed Disqus on several website, choose the one that is linked to your GoodBarber app. Find your shortname for this website and copy it. You'll use it later. ## Activate disqus comments in your app ![](https://cmsphoto.ww-cdn.com/superstatic/41269/art/grande/6388002-9635683.jpg?v=1427282623.2578886) Now, go to your GoodBarber backend and select the **article section** on which you want to activate Disqus (it is in the *Content > Sections* menu) Under the advanced setting of the section, activate Disqus comments and **paste your shortname**. Save your section and then go the to **Publication > Update** menu to publish the changes into your app. That's it. Disqus is activated on your app. ## Ready for a showcase?
