Adding a comment system
Material for MkDocs is natively integrated with Disqus, a comment system that provides a wide range of features like social integrations, user profiles, as well as spam and moderation tools. Of course, other comment systems can be integrated, too.
Configuration
Disqus
:octicons-file-code-24: Source · :octicons-milestone-24: Default: none
First, ensure you've set site_url in mkdocs.yml. Then, to integrate
Material for MkDocs with Disqus, create an account and a site giving you a
shortname, and add it to mkdocs.yml:
extra:
disqus: <shortname>
This will insert a comment system on every page, except the index page.
Metadata
The Metadata extension, which is part of the standard Markdown library,
adds the ability to add front matter to a document and can be enabled via
mkdocs.yml:
markdown_extensions:
- meta
Front matter is written as a series of key-value pairs at the beginning of the Markdown document, delimited by a blank line which ends the YAML context.
Customization
Selective integration

If the Metadata extension is enabled, you can disable or enable Disqus for specific pages by adding the following to the front matter of a page:
=== "Enable Disqus"
``` markdown
---
disqus: <shortname>
---
```
=== "Disable Disqus"
``` markdown
---
disqus: ""
---
```
