Disqus comments not loading on all articles

[mclearc]

I'm having this weird problem where Disqus loads on some article pages but not others. I can't see any relevant difference between them. Any ideas? Thanks!

So I pasted the following into the two pages that were not loading comments

<div id="disqus_thread"></div>  
 <script type="text/javascript">  
/* * * CONFIGURATION VARIABLES: EDIT BEFORE PASTING INTO YOUR WEBPAGE * * */
var disqus_shortname = 'YOUR_DISQUS_SHORTNAME'; // required: replace example with your forum shortname

/* * * DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE * * */
(function() {
var dsq = document.createElement('script'); dsq.type = 'text/javascript'; dsq.async = true;
dsq.src = '//' + disqus_shortname + '.disqus.com/embed.js';
(document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')`[0]).appendChild(dsq);
`})();
</script>
<noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view the <a href="https://disqus.com/?ref_noscript">comments powered by Disqus.</a></noscript>

After which I ran a local server, and lo, the comment section showed up. I then deleted the above, saved the file, and pushed the changes to github and now comments show on the website. I don't know what that was all about, but things seem to be working. I'll close the issue, but if you think you have any idea what happened I'd be curious to hear.

The same thing is happening to me now. I tried copy pasting the code into the .html file for the two articles but it's not working.

@mclearc did you ever get any clarity on this?

@GuneetKohli I never was sure what happened her. But there are a variety of places where things could've gone wrong, including on Disqus's end. So I'd say, check your publishing settings to be sure that they are correct. Make sure there is nothing off with the syntax of your pages, and then publish and pray. I will say that I haven't faced this problem since.
