I want to integrate “Disqus” comment system for my blog. I have added `disqusShortname = "-"`  
parameter in the **config.toml** file. Still I can’t see disques comment on my posts.

- I have hosted my blog on X.
- Here is my config file.
- I am using [Anatole](https://github.com/lxndrblz/anatole) Theme.
- I have done the steps mentioned in the [theme instruction wiki](https://github.com/lxndrblz/anatole/wiki/%F0%9F%93%AB-Comments#adding-disqus).
- I have tried different browsers, cleared cookies also verified if the theme is working.
- I found a site which uses the same theme & disqus has enabled & working in it.
- I also tried including

`comments: true`  
`disablecoments: false`

on my post front matter. Stil it is not working. 😔

- I also tried other comment systems like `utterences` those are also not working.

I don’t know what to do 🤔. I am new to Hugo. Please help me am I missing anything ? Why can’t I enable Disques on my Hugo Blog ? 🙏

You’ve placed the configuration parameter under the params key. It needs to be in the root table.
