In reply to: [CommentPress Core] Re-skinning or Re-templatingHi Brendan,
I don’t know what your theming skills are like, but you could create a child theme and amend it whichever way you want… There’s a “starter child theme” on GitHub you could use as the basis for your custom theme.
Also, just about everything in the plugin and theme can be overridden via filters and actions, so if you want to override the content of the sidebar on a particular page, you can do it that way too.
Cheers,
Christian

In reply to: [CommentPress Core] Possible to use Disqus?Hi Donnacha,
I would imagine that it is possible to substitute another commenting system for the in-built WordPress one, but it would be by no means trivial.
Things to think about – in no real order and off the top of my head:
- There is a hash which establishes the link between a comment and a “block” of text – this intermediary data would have to be applied somehow.
- I’ve not seen multiple Facebook or Disqus threads on the same page of a blog. Does this even work?
- Facebook and Disqus comments are displayed via a iframe, which is likely to complicate matters
- Support for WordPress post sub-division (using the
<!--nextpage-->quicktag) could present issues – especially when syncing with BuddyPress activity streams
I guess a half-way solution would be to implement solid integration with those “Login with” buttons (FB, Twitter etc)
I’ve marked this as a feature request on the GitHub repo and will consider it further.
Cheers,
Christian
