I think we should move Giscus critical variables to a
.env
file to prevent unwanted comments like this one.What I think happened is that someone cloned or forked this repository and tested the comment system without changing the settings inside https://github.com/timlrx/tailwind-nextjs-starter-blog/blob/master/data/siteMetadata.js causing their comment to appear in this template Discussion tab.
I propose that we do the following:
.env
file:repo, repositoryId, category, categoryId
.env.example
file similar to this one https://github.com/leerob/leerob.io/blob/main/.env.example and add the appropriate variables.This template is gaining a lot of attention and is increasing in popularity. Keeping the variables the way they are right now could cause more unwanted comments to appear and even spam.
I tested adding a
.env
file locally and it works great. I can send a PR soon if you agree with my proposal.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
