Plugin is installed + configured and hooked up to their Disqus account, but I don't see the comment field being added to posts 🤔

Example post with Disqus enabled:

http://sfpublicpress.flywheelsites.com/demonstrators-march-through-san-francisco-to-mark-juneteenth/

Next steps:

• Enable comments on all posts
• Find post on sfpublicpress.org with comments
• Find that post on the new site
• If it has a new slug and a redirect in place, test out the redirect crawler from Disqus

Example post:

old site: https://sfpublicpress.org/blog/2020-05/surviving-the-pandemic-the-future-of-local-media#comment-4972108526

new site: http://sfpublicpress.flywheelsites.com/surviving-the-pandemic-the-future-of-local-media/

@MirandaEcho We may want to wait until after launch to do the Disqus permalink updating. Disqus says that once it's done it cannot be undone, so it would leave their current (old) site without comments until we launch.
