  Hi there wise folk,

  I read a blog post advising me to install Disqus for comments on my site. I’ve opened an account, but I’m not sure how to install it etc on WordPress.com? It mentions instructions for self-hosted, but this isn’t WordPress.com is it?

  Or, if anyone can recommend any free social media comment options, then please do.

  Thanks so much,

  Katie.

  Discus cannot be installed on WordPress.com sites.

  However, your site visitors can already use their twitter or FB accounts to leave a comment on your site (in addition to their WPcom account).

  Try logging out of WordPress.com and put your cursor in any one of the available comment boxes on your site. You should see there there options for logging in to comment.

  Let us know how that goes.
