How to migrate from Disqus without rebuilding your publication.
A practical migration path for publishers moving their comment experience to Threadline. Start small, verify everything, then switch the production template.
The migration path
Audit the current setup
Identify where Disqus is installed, which templates load it, what moderation rules you rely on, and what historical comments you need to preserve.
Export and review your data
Use your existing Disqus export/data tools and verify the format before changing production. Historical-comment handling depends on your export and site platform.
Set up Threadline
Create your site, choose a layout, configure moderation and team access, and test the embed on a staging or low-risk page.
Run both systems during verification
Check account flows, replies, reactions, moderation, mobile behavior, and article URLs before removing the old widget.
Switch the production template
Replace the Disqus embed with Threadline, verify the live page, then remove the legacy integration once you are satisfied.
What you should verify before switching
You do not have to migrate alone.
Early publishers can ask Threadline for hands-on migration assistance. Tell us what you are running today and we will work through the path with you.
