Hello!

Right after installing Disqus plugin site disappear - just blank page (HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error)).
Also in Control Panel I'm getting the same blank page when trying to open any plugin or module. Media Manager is blank too.

The only way to get site back is to uninstall Disqus plugins (luckily it's possible).

As I see on extension page http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/5259 [nofollow], recently few people had this problem too. Please help.  ???

Hi,

Solution [may be] :) :
In file \plugins\content\jw_disqus\jw_disqus.php , line 40 remove "&"

Bad code:
Code: [Select] [nofollow]
$this->onContentPrepare('com_content.article', &$row, &$params, $limitstart );

Good code:
Code: [Select] [nofollow]
$this->onContentPrepare('com_content.article', $row, $params, $limitstart );

Otherwise there will be "PHP Fatal error: Call-time pass-by-reference has been removed"

JW developers, please take a look at this problem and fix it in next version!

Still no answer here?  Moved site to an A3 hosting and Disqus plugin causing all sorts of issues.  unable to access Admin pages.

Does the bug mentioned in this thread still need to be fixed??

We are trying to move our Joomla site from a WAMP host over to a Amazon mySQL instance.  This plugin is holding the entire thing up as installing breaks numerous Admin functions and takes down the entire frontend.  Does anyone monitor these forums?  I realize this is a free product but being as you are referred by Disqus this needs some level of support please!!??
