Jekyll is great. But there’s the first technical issue…Just following the instructions of the minima github page for installing Disqus didn’t work. I’m searching for a simple way (tutorial, video, etc) to implement Disqus, any tips?

so you followed this:

> **[jekyll/minima](https://github.com/jekyll/minima#enabling-comments-via-disqus)**

Is there a repo to see?

did you see it only works when env= production?
