In one of the articles, I mentioned about using different commenting systems other than Blogger's built-in commenting system and in another article I've also blogged on how to use Disqus comment system. So in this article, I will show you how to use another commenting system (IntenseDebate) with Blogger.
For Classic Template users:
With IntenseDebate it is a little bit complicated with Classic Template because Intense Debate only works with the New Blogger. However, it is still possible to use Classic Template with IntenseDebate but it will involve slightly different steps.
Step 1
Create an IntenseDebate account. Log into your IntenseDebate account and under the Sites menu, click + Add blog/site. Type in your any URL you like, but don't use any of the blogger.com or blogspot.com URL. For ease, just use any URL that uses webs.com (eg. mystorage.webs.com) and click the Next Step button. It doesn't matter whether that webs.com link exists or not, it will still work.
Type in your Webs.com URL
Step 2
Click on Generic Install and you will be taken to a page with Javascript codes. Copy the codes there and paste them into your Classic Blogger template between the <ItemPage> </ItemPage> after the <$BlogItemBody$> tag; something like this:
<$BlogItemBody$>
<ItemPage>
INTENSEDEBATE JAVASCRIPT CODE HERE
</ItemPage>
Click the Generic Install button
Copy the Javascript codes and paste them into your Blogger blog
Don't forget to add the codes for the link to the comments:
<a href="<$BlogItemCommentCreate$>" <$BlogItemCommentFormOnClick$>>Leave a comment</a>
For New Blogger / Template Designer users:
For Template Designer users, it is easier to integrate IntenseDebate into their blogs because IntenseDebate provides the means to do so.
Step 1
Create an account with IntenseDebate and after you log into your account, under the Sites menu, click + Add blog/site.
Step 2
Type in your Blogger's URL and then click the Next Step button.
Type in your Webs.com URL
Step 3
You will be brought to a page where you will need to follow the instruction on how to install the script into your template.

Is this applicable using mobile phones? Because I hardly get to use my computer due to my job.
I'm sorry for troubling you again but intense debate does not show up.My template is this http://www.blogskins.com/sotd/2012/10/07 . Thank you and sorry if I troubled you. I really appreciate your help. :)
I posted it after the <$BlogItemBody$> but the intense debate only shows up in the first post. I made another blog to check it. http://papaspizzaria.blogspot.com/ Sorry for the trouble.
I know it's been a couple of years but this works perfectly. Thank you so much. :)
