I’m not sure if this is your problem, but Disqus cannot be previewed locally. If that’s what you’re seeing then it’s expected. You signed up with a specific URL, you will have to upload your site to that URL and view it there – in public, from that server – before you will see the comments.

I am having the same issue as Drew. Somebody please help!! I signed up with Disqus, went through all the steps, ‘added’ my webpage, etc.
When I use the Comment Action, I input my shortname where specified and all I get is a disqus notice that there is a problem.
When I use the Univ. Code as an HTML Markup and preview all that shows up is a link to Disqus.
What is needed here is a very simple step by step tutorial.
Thank you, Walt. I’ve been wracking my brain for HOURS trying to get this damn Disqus thing to work. Good to finally know that I won’t see on preview. Woulda been nice if this had been mentioned somewhere previously, like maybe on the Disqus site.
