GraphComment allows you to add a dynamic comment section to your Google Sites pages. Here’s how to install it:
Step 1: Copy the integration code
1. Log in to your GraphComment account and get the integration code from your dashboard.
2. Click on "Copy this code" button.
Step 2: Insert the code in Google Sites
1. Open your Google Sites editor.
2. Click on Embed and then Embed Code.
3. Paste the GraphComment code.
Step 3: Modify the UID for each page
First, you need to customize the address of your page in Google Sites.
Go to the PAGES tab then Properties on your page:
Then ADVANCED options, and choose a personalized path at your convenience:
Each page must have a unique UID. The UID is an identifier that GraphComment uses to distinguish discussions on different pages.
In the code, locate this line:
uid: 'your_unique_uid',
Replace 'your_unique_uid' with a specific identifier for each page, like 'page1', 'page2', etc. This ensures comments are correctly linked to the corresponding page.
Example before modification:
uid: 'your_unique_uid',
Example after modification for a specific page:
uid: 'testpage',
Example :
<div id="graphcomment"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
/* - - - CONFIGURATION VARIABLES - - - */
var __semio__params = {
graphcommentId: "your-ID-here", // your site shortname — replace with yours
behaviour: {
// HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
uid: "testpage", // uniq identifer for the comments thread on your page (ex: your page id)
},
// configure your variables here
}
/* - - - DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE - - - */
function __semio__onload() {
__semio__gc_graphlogin(__semio__params)
}
(function() {
var gc = document.createElement('script'); gc.type = 'text/javascript'; gc.async = true;
gc.onload = __semio__onload; gc.defer = true; gc.src = 'https://integration.graphcomment.com/gc_graphlogin.js?' + Date.now();
(document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(gc);
})();
</script>
Step 4: Verify the installation
1. Publish your page.
2. Check that the comment section appears correctly on your site.
Reproduce this operation on every pages, one by one, with a different uid, until the New Google Sites authorize Gadgets.
