Comments the same across all pages

    I’m finding that if I use inline commenting on the first paragraph of a page, then that comment will show up on the first paragraph of my main page, no matter how many posts I’ve added below it.

    I’m also finding that this is the case across all of my pages; even if I drill down to the page for one post, that same comment will show up, tagged to the first paragraph of my post.

    Do I need to add some kind of unique identifier to each paragraph of my blog? Is there a step I’m missing in the install process for your plugin?

    Thanks for any help you can render.

    Hi Dvana,

    you must use a selector that defines a class (.single-post) that is only visible on a page with a single post, as follows:
    .single-post .entry-content > p

    Hi Dvana and kevinweber,
    I found a fix, but it may not be proper convention. I was getting the same problem.

    The reason is that the window.location.pathname in the javascript (which is used to prepend each <p> identifier in new posts) was returning a solitary “/” for each paragraph. This resulted in the same paragraph identifiers across different posts, therefore the same comment threads were being loaded by Disqus.

    As a fix, I simply edited the plugin javascript file to include location.pathname as the identifier prefix. This returns the end string of the permalink (I’m using post name permalinks, so I’m not sure if this solution will work with query string variables like ?p=3 etc.)

    The lines I edited in the plugin’s javascript (“inlineDisqussions.js”) are lines 83 & 86.

    @kevinweber, I’m not sure if this is the best solution, as I don’t know the full complexity of your plugin, but it seems to be working well. Please advise if this edit is a mistake for any reason.

    Also, thanks for the stellar plugin. ??

    EDIT: FYI, I’m using Chrome Version 33.0.1750.152
