 * I’m planning to port a site from blogger to wordpress and as part of the process
   I’ve installed wordpress on a virtual machine.
 * I don’t seem to be able to add new disqus comments to my test posts. All other
   plugins are disabled and I’m using the Emerald Stretch theme.
 * After displaying the loading graphic the error appears
 * We were unable to load Disqus. For more information please see our documentation
   on identifier and urls.

 * There seems to be something called “disqus_developer”
 * [http://docs.disqus.com/help/2/](http://docs.disqus.com/help/2/)
 * This could be significant. I’ve also found a reference to this in comments.php
   plugin file. I’ll give that a go.
 *     ```
       <?php if (false && get_option('disqus_developer')): ?>
       		var disqus_developer = 1;
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```

 * Did you fine a place to set disqus_developer using the admin section? I cant 
   find it in the settings and i would prefer not to modify the plugin’s code so
   i don’t by mistake upload the changes to the live site.

 * Looking at that code, it looks like you would need to have both the option in
   place and the code changed as follows, I’ve switched over to an test site hosted
   on the web so did not need to investigate this further.
 * <?php if (true && get_option(‘disqus_developer’)): ?>
    var disqus_developer =
   1; <?php endif; ?>
