Add Disqus comments to any page

I don’t understand this very well.
I went into my functions.php file in the /wp-content/themes/enfold-child/ folder and added:

function disqus_embed($disqus_shortname) {
global $post;
wp_enqueue_script(‘disqus_embed’,’http://’.$disqus_shortname.’.disqus.com/embed.js’);
echo ‘<div id=”disqus_thread”></div>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
var disqus_shortname = “‘.$disqus_shortname.'”;
var disqus_title = “‘.$post->post_title.'”;
var disqus_url = “‘.get_permalink($post->ID).'”;
var disqus_identifier = “‘.$disqus_shortname.’-‘.$post->ID.'”;
</script>’;
}

Then I edited my page (not a blog page, not a post, just a regular page that I want to add comments on) and added a text block with the following code:

<div id=”disqus_thread”></div>
<!–?php disqus_embed(‘myexampleblog’); ?–>

And it still doesn’t load on that page. What am I doing wrong?

That didn’t work. I added this to the bottom of page.php in my enfold theme folder (the child folder had no page.php file):

<div id=”disqus_thread”>
<?php disqus_embed(homesmartsecure.disqus.com); ?>
</div>

And I added this to the bottom of function.php in my enfold CHILD theme folder:

function disqus_embed($disqus_shortname) {
global $post;
wp_enqueue_script(‘disqus_embed’,’http://homesmartsecure.disqus.com/embed.js’);
echo ‘<div id=”disqus_thread”></div>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
var disqus_shortname = “‘.$disqus_shortname.’”;
var disqus_title = “‘.$post->post_title.’”;
var disqus_url = “‘.get_permalink($post->ID).’”;
var disqus_identifier = “‘.$disqus_shortname.’-’.$post->ID.’”;
</script>’;
}

I only want the comments on this one page, NOT all my pages, but I can’t get it to show up at all on anything but a blog post and I don’t have to do anything for that.

If I can’t add disqus comments to this page (which I really want to do), can I at least add the theme’s comments to this one page somehow, not all of them?

Do you want an admin account to my wordpress or should I make one for ftp as well?

Can you please let me know what you do so I can learn from it? Thanks for all your help.

Awesome, thanks. I have to go over the code to learn why this works and why what I was doing wasn’t working.

It’s great!

So then the code I posted in functions.php is unnecessary and all we need is the page-disqus.php file? I noticed the plugin was disabled. So that was also unnecessary as well?

Either way, it works and I’m loving’ it!

Thanks man!
