Are any of you out there using the iPad running into problems with leaving comments on blogs using the Disqus blog comment system?
This morning I browsed to Scott Monty’s blog on my iPad and went to leave a comment on his “Picture This” post. (Great post, BTW!) I typed in my reply and then pressed the “Post as…” button… and… nothing:
Now, when I press that same button on my laptop, I see this window popup on the page:
allowing me to then choose the identity that I want to use to post the comment.
This popup does NOT appear for me when I’m using the iPad’s browser to view Scott’s blog. I tried another blog that also used the Disqus system and had the same result.
Looking at the HTML source of the page, I’m guessing the issue may be the JavaScript script that Disqus is using to generate the comment form… but that’s just a guess at this point. It may also not be an issue with the Disqus system, per se, but more in the specific way that Scott’s blog embeds the connection to Disqus. I don’t know. All I know is that when I had a comment to leave this morning, I couldn’t do so.
Anyone else seeing this kind of issue using the iPad’s browser with Disqus-powered blogs?
If you found this post interesting or useful, please consider either:
I’ve noticed this too. Since this post was made in August, have you solved this problem?
I have checked after august its not been solved up till then, now i have not any idea of it.
Yes once i heard about it but i never seen this.
Any idea if this has been resolved? I’m experiencing the same but want to know if there’s been a work around since you posted this a year ago. Thanks.
Still have this problem?
very short, easy, and simple. Sensible that it would occupy every moment of a man’s life to peruse attentively, and digest effectually, the numerous productions of the fruitful press, they have discovered a very prudent plan
I can post without any problems with any of our household Macs – except the iPad.
Occasionally, after a log in, the comments box appears. Usually, it does not.
It’s It’s working normally in other operating system devices, don’t know the problem has been solved?
Disqus is still broke on iPad. Shameful.
