Embed Discourse comments into readthedocs hosted site

Support
1

Hello all,

I have been trying to add discourse comments from our forum to our documentation site.
We host our documentation on readthedocs.

I used the javascript from discourse customize/embedding and it would only render “Discussion Loading”.

Links:
Forum
Discourse embed URl(readthedocs site)

I inspected the page and in the console I found this error message:

Invalid X-Frame-Options: “ALLOWALL” header from “[https://forum.zenko.io/embed/comments?embed_url=https%3A%2F%…tsInReadTheDocs%2Freference%2Fobject_operations%2Findex.html](https://forum.zenko.io/embed/comments?embed_url=https%3A%2F%2Fzenko.readthedocs.io%2Fen%2Fdocumentation%2FZENKOIO-111-ForumCommentsInReadTheDocs%2Freference%2Fobject_operations%2Findex.html)” loaded into “[https://zenko.readthedocs.io/en/documentation-zenkoio-111-fo…commentsinreadthedocs/reference/object_operations/index.html](https://zenko.readthedocs.io/en/documentation-zenkoio-111-forumcommentsinreadthedocs/reference/object_operations/index.html)”.

And if this helps:

Request URL:https://forum.zenko.io/embed/comments?embed_url=https%3A%2F%2Fzenko.readthedocs.io%2Fen%2Fdocumentation%2FZENKOIO-111-ForumCommentsInReadTheDocs%2Findex.html

Did anyone had similar issue or can help?

Many thanks! :blush:

Hello Dasha,

I just checked your site in the comment, and as I see you could solve the problem. Can you help me with a short description of how you did it, it seems I have the same problem, and it could be helpful for others too.

Thanks!

Hello @Tokapeb
It’s hard to say what exactly resolved my issue, but as far as I remember I did two things to fix it:

  • added my site’s URL to cors origins on the forum site settings
  • changed discourse embed URI in the script to canonical (it wasn’t before)

Hope it helps :slight_smile:
