MckFacts - Facts about Jennifer McKinney aka MckMama

We have had this platform for two weeks now. I have heard from some that it is great and some that they hate it. I need a more specific list so I can look for a different platform, if need be. Please list your Pros and Cons of this platform. Next week I will put up a survey to vote on if we keep it or try a different platform. Please don't hold back! My Pros Very similar to Disqus that became so familiar to us Easy to use Appearance is crisp and easy to read Customer Service is outstanding, every time I have had a question it was answered right away Fairly priced My Cons Constantly getting signed out No matter how many times I set it to default to latest as sort option it defaults back to best Length of time to load, especially when we hit 500 comments (I have purposely not made a new post so I could gauge the comment count before problems started) Not being able to see up or down votes (petty yes lol) No emails when you have comment replies (I don't use this opti...

Things look a lot different, I decided to do a major overhaul along with dumping disqus. Our new platform for commenting is Hyvor Talk. It is similar to Disqus but seems to be run by competent people. When you visit for the first time near the bottom left hand corner you will see a log in or sign up button in yellow. Click the sign up button. One important thing to note, do not use your first and last name, they will be your screen name if you do. Put what you want as your screen name in these boxes, I used Mckfacts as my first and a . as my second. Then put the whole thing in the screen name box (MckFacts.). If you want to change your name or picture you need to go to talk.hyvor.com and click on your console at the top right. I have held off signing up for a year for now, the plan we are on allows 100k views a month, I need to make sure that is enough before we commit to a year. We may need the business plan, I am not sure yet. Next month I will have a better idea of what will work...

We will changing commenting platforms on Wednesday, July 15th. The blog will go down around 1pm central time. The new platform for commenting will be Hyvor Talk, which so far seems to be very similar to Disqus. I will not know how to log in as a commenter until after I install it, so I will make a dummy account to help walk through the process if needed. The same rules will be in place, no guest commenting etc. Please be patient as I am sure we will run into some hiccups along the way, for example I may have to auto approve everyone when they comment for the first time. I do not know yet if there will be moderated words that need to be added to keep comments from going into spam. This may be a huge mess for a few days, so I will be updating the Facebook page often, and if you really run into any issues please email me or send me a FB message anytime. I am hopeful this is going to resolve the ongoing issues we have all had lately with Disqus. Today they told me they didn't even rec...
