How to integrate disqus comments with K2?

I as well would like to know how to do this. I just tried on a K2-only site, where each menu item is a K2 - Item type, so the K2 comments do not function (requires 'blog' type ... not appropriate for this site). Set up a Disqus account for this but the Disqus comments do not appear (the Disqus account works as I tried it with the basic Joomla "article" menu type). Tried everything that I could think of. Would be nice to have one of two things (both would be better :) )
1) K2 comments to be available in all K2 menu item types
2) Disqus comments to function in K2 Item menu types (using the Joomlaworks Disqus plugin, so kinda figured it should work ;) )
Cheers!

I too would like to have this capability (particularly since I can't get the K2 comments to work). I've got the joomla/disqus plugin but don't know how to make it work with K2.

Thanks,
Matt

That plugin searchs Joomla's categories and section, so it will not work unless a rewrite is done to work with K2 categories. Maybe you can get someone to do it for $100-$250.

Any word on this? Does the disqus plugin work for K2 as of yet? If not I am willing to post it out as a job and split the cost with some other users, let me know, thanks.

Dont pay for it! Disqus gives you everything you need. No need for the plugin. k2community.joomlaworks.gr/forum/topics/disqus-comments-in-k2-items?page=1&commentId=3536014%3AComment%3A12189&x=1#3536014Comment12189

Dear All,

K2Joom has managed to integrate Disqus into K2 items.
A full guide is available at k2joom.com

Hope you get this working.

I integrated a while back, just relaunched my site.

I am noticing that in the DISQUS back end, when you view comments from a k2 page, it is pulling the url and using it as the tile.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Can you please repost this link? I am getting a 404 error, instead of the document intended.

Hi there,

No idea how comprehensive the KJoom article was, but as this is something I've done manually myself a few times, I've posted a quick tutorial.

You can see it in action here: thinksync.com.au/blog

And here's the tutorial: thinksync.com.au/blog/code/integrating-disqus-with-k2

Hope this helps.
