Hi,
As I'm sure plenty of you have noticed, disqus has grown in popularity incredibly over the past 12 months, being adopted by many sights as a way to encourage browsers to easily comment by using their Facebook/Twitter/Google etc logins rather than having to register.
I think that we are in the middle, and have even passed a fundamental shift away from site specific registrations. I have no doubt that users are much more likely to engage if they can do so easily.
Because of this, I feel that our vB installation is completely undermined by it's registration system. I appreciate that user's can login via Facebook, but they still have to register, and it is not easy or clear for them to post a comment to an article or thread.
Because of this, I have been looking closely at how we can use disqus for non-registered users, with their comments and input being added to any thread of article - this I see as the best of both worlds, with those who wish still being able to register, and casual browsers also being able to easily become active.
With that in mind, I have searched high and low for even a sniff of such an integration, and the only significant thing I can find is this string on the disqus developers forum in Google groups;
http://groups.google.com/group/disqu...d83ff7c79a0886
I am currently speaking to 'seths' to see if his development team can help - but I am also keen to see if anyone on the VB.org community has also looked in to such an integration or if I have somehow missed a mod that somehow accomplishes this.
Appreciate any help anyone can provide.
