URL for Comment Replacement

SmileLee

I'm using Vanilla for a comment replacement on my Wordpress based website. But, recently, it adds a bit of extra information to the original URL.

For example: http://reverie.heavensentgaming.com/archive/for-the-love-of-coke-and-fries/

It changes it to: http://reverie.heavensentgaming.com/archive/for-the-love-of-coke-and-fries/#/vanilla/discussion/embed/?vanilla_discussion_id=0

Did I do something wrong?

no, that is how embed works.

That's what I thought too. But, then when I was able to "reverse engineer" the embed code, and make it work on my tumblr blog:

Example: http://mblog.heavensentgaming.com/post/20827810346/minecraft-glitch-panorama-time-so-i-took-another

The URL stays normal.

Hmm, I tried looking through the code of the WordPress plug-in too. I couldn't find anything related to changing the URL in the browser's URL bar.

But, I have been able to conclude that it's happening after the user arrives to a page. So, it's possibly the JavaScript, at one point, rewriting the URL in the user's address bar. Thank you for answering x00, I appreciate it, I just hope someone can help figure it out.

Totally fixed it, by "following instructions". lol, I should really remember to do that from now on.

Over here: http://vanillaforums.com/blog/news/how-to-use-the-vanilla-commenting-system-with-wordpress/

Step one, and I repeat:

"1. If you had previously used the Vanilla Embed plugin, disable it by following the instructions posted here: http://vanillaforums.com/blog/converting-embed-plugin/"

Silly mistake is silly.

@SmileLee is your forums vanilla hosted or self hosted because i'm going through the same problem and can't find the embed enable on my self hosted one.
