How to configure Discus?

[FuadEfendi]

Hi Razon,

How to configure Giscus, for example, how to configure og:title?

This is what I found in initial example:

   giscus:
       repo: hbstack/theme
         repo_id: R_kgDOJP3qtA
         category_id: DIC_kwDOJP3qtM4CVavM

And where can I find repo Id?
https://giscus.app/

Thanks,

[razonyang]

EDITED: added a guide of How to Configure Giscus.

You've to fill up the form on giscus.app, and then it will show the related info for you if everything is OK.

1. Install the Giscus App on your public GitHub repo.
2. Type your repo name in the repository input on Giscus.app.
3. Select the Discussion Category on Giscus.app.
4. If anything is OK, then you could find any required info in the Enable giscus section, such as data-repo-id and data-category-id.

It would be great that Giscus handles those IDs by names, it's a little bit complex for setting it up at now.

Item 3 (Select Category) is unclear; and I don't have item 4

Ah, the steps 2-4 should be performed on the Giscus.app.

I see; so it will generate ID depending on my settings (such as og:title) and all my settings are stored at Giscuss.app; so that this ID is needed to store settings... smart ;)

Thank you Razon!

Ok, I published 1st comment from the Website; unfortunately it uses URL as a title of the comment. og:title is not used (or, maybe I don't know how to configure it; I was hoping that Giscus.app will store <ID, Settings> mapping when I configure it)

Answering to myself:
https://github.com/hugomods/giscus/blob/main/hugo.yaml

    # The mapping between the embedding page and the embedded discussion. Available options:
    #   pathname: giscus will search for a discussion whose title contains the page's pathname URL component.
    #   URL:      giscus will search for a discussion whose title contains the page's URL.
    #   title:    giscus will search for a discussion whose title contains the page's <title> HTML tag.
    #   og:title: giscus will search for a discussion whose title contains the page's <meta property="og:title"> HTML tag.
    mapping: pathname
