Disqus and WooCommerce review compatibility issue

I am trying to use Woocommerce plugin and Disqus plugin together on my WordPress blog.

As I can see from other posts on internet, lot of users such as me are facing the issue that - Disqus disables reviews on product page created by Woocommerce.

As Disqus disables WordPress comments which in turn are used by Woocommerce for product review - now there is no way (as far as I could know) to show review form on Woocommerce.

Can anyone suggest a fix for this?

I have already tried the following:

  1. Open Disqus plugin directly.
  2. Go to line number 150 in disqus.php
  3. notice the conditions which says for which posts types Disqus should not render comments.
  4. add - if ( is_product() ) { return false; }

This will stop showing Disqus comment box from product pages created by Woocommerce and it will show usual review form. However, on submitting this - you will receive an error saying WP comments have been disabled.

Can anyone help me here?

Solution

  • My problem was if I used Disqus plugin, it replaced my WordPress comment system with Disqus. Thus, disabling reviews on Woocommerce pages.

    So instead using Disqus plugin, I simply used its universal code and added to my single.php file, before <?php comments_template(); ?> to be precise.

    This seems to work.
