Disqus threads for http and https sites separate

[bewuethr]

Is there a way to have the https site forward to the http site? I've just noticed that if people comment on a post reached using the http address and others do the same using the https address, the threads only show up on one or the other, as if there were two different sites.

Example: this post http://bewuethr.github.io/installing-fltk-133-under-visual-studio/ and the same under https, https://bewuethr.github.io/installing-fltk-133-under-visual-studio/, has two different comment threads.

This is a possible solution:

This site discusses it:

That's the exact problem, thanks @Koxzi95. I'll use that – maybe Jekyll Now could add it to the default template?

It would depend on how the site is configured. For example I cannot access my site with: https://koxzi.me because of the hosting. But I don't know if there would be a way to work around that.

I don't use a custom domain name, so it should work, but good to know that it doesn't work with custom ones.

Glad you got a fix for this, @bewuethr. Thanks, @Koxzi95!

I'm curious as to why people were visiting an https:// link on your site at all, @bewuethr? I've never ran into that problem. Wondering if it's an issue that many people are having?
