Forum section now integrated into main site

[Jared B]

We are trying something a little different and getting away from the Disqus comments on main site articles. Now what we have done is integrated our forum with the front page and each individual article itself. Now when articles are written they will automatically create a thread in the Moparinsiders article section with a link back to the main page article. On that main page article, any replies on the forum thread will be displayed along with a prompt for people to join the discussion which will take them to that particular thread on the forum.



This does 2 things, 1 is gets rid of all the low quality disqus ads that were displayed and 2 will hopefully drive more forum engagement.

That makes sense to me!

I like this move. Actually I was always for this integration.

Honestly it's something I wanted since I created the site. Unfortunately software wise it wasn't possible until just a few days ago.

Did you change this again? Now it's a comment field, where I have to put my name and email… no forum link.

Yeah, I joined and for some reason I too am having issues posting comments on the new articles.
