Rolling out a new version of the Disqus system
We’re currently transitioning all sites using Disqus over to a new version of the JavaScript code. This is what’s loaded on websites and enables reading, posting, and other interactions with the Disqus system.
What’s noticeably different? Nothing for now. This is the first rollout of a major revision to the foundation of Disqus. It’s going to enable our upcoming features and flexibility not previously possible. More on this soon.
Also with this change, we’re completely phasing out some support for nonpublic JavaScript APIs in the previous version of Disqus. We did our best to ensure backwards compatibility, but if you’re having problems just let us know in the comments here. We’ve also finally removed the old Classic themes, which just aren’t compatible with the new system at all. We’ll have much more on theme availability coming up.
Watch out for a followup post describing the internals of the new system and everything you can expect to see with the new Disqus.
