Hello fellow commenters,

This post will be about features and fixes that are quickly coming. But first of all, welcome to our many new users from Tumblr! New Disqus user Rod from ToldorKnown made a helpful post for Tumblr users.

We just made a small update to the general integration instructions. This should make integrating with custom websites and platforms much easier. We’ve also been hearing a lot of requests for greater customization — we will have custom CSS editing from your Disqus account very soon. In the meantime, we will put up extended documentation for adding custom rules right in your own stylesheet.

If you take a look at our front page, you may notice that the Top Discussions are a bit arbitrary. I admit that this needs some, well, a lot of work. Expect this soon. Feel free to berate us publicly and privately if expectations are not met.

We’ve been hearing a lot about being able to import and export your comment data as well. We’ve been asked for our thoughts regarding this. The Disqus answer: We believe in it and we have this implemented in development. It’s being tested and will be online soon. Why the wait? Import/export features of some other services were found to be broken and insecure — ours will not be.
