how to integrate single sign on from disqus with django allauth

Question

I am using django-allauth for my django project with social login and at the same time I am using Disqus as my commenting system for my site.

I want to know, how to use the single sign on function from Disqus with allauth?

Answer 1

Disqus has a guide at: http://help.disqus.com/customer/portal/articles/236206-integrating-single-sign-on

"Access to Single Sign-On (SSO) is currently available as a free add-on for your Disqus account. Please contact our support team via this contact form and ask them to enable it for your account."

"Single sign-on (SSO) allows users to sign into a site and fully use Disqus Comments without again authenticating with Disqus. SSO will create a site-specific user profile on Disqus so as not to clash with existing users of Disqus."*

Disqus itself is not a SSO provider. But if your users authenticate to your site, they can access disqus without an additional login.
