I am building a site (icfa.doaks.org/collections/artamonoff) and the Comments plugin does not work when I upload and activate it. I have seen some other sites that use the Intense Debate Comments plugin as an alternative, but I cannot find that plugin to download from this site. Is it possible for someone to send me the plugin file so that I can upload it to my server?
Not sure what happened to this plugin but you can just grab the embed code from your account dashboard at http://intensedebate.com/ (under the "Install" tab) and place it in your theme file items/show.php above or below where it says plugin_append_to_items_show(). This will do the same thing as the plugin. Disquss (http://disqus.com/) is also a good and very similar option for comments.
@ebellempire Thanks for Disqus tip, I went that route instead of using the Comments or Commenting plugin.
I forgot to note that this is actually the correct URL for adding the Disqus embed code: http://docs.disqus.com/developers/universal/
