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.

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: ""
---
```
