Django + disqus: Comment options below every blog entry

Question

On my site, I am displaying multiple blog entries on one page. I would like to give the users the option to comment below every entry, but django-disqus is giving me a hard time.

In my html template, I am rotating through the blog entry items and want to display the comment option by disqus below:

...
{% load disqus_tags %}
{% disqus_dev %}  
...
{% for entry in blog %}
<div class="span5">
    <p>{{ entry.text }}</p> 
    {% set_disqus_identifier "entry_" entry.id %}
    {% disqus_recent_comments shortname 5 50 0 24 %} 
{% endfor %}    
...

However, Django is complaining with an error that

Exception Type: AttributeError
Exception Value: 'list' object has no attribute 'var'

How can I display a dedicated comment field by Disqus for every blog entry?

It seems that it is not possible to display multiple comment sections on the same page since disqus is using the url as identifier.

There was a SO post regarding a similar implementation in JS.

I have discarded django-disqus and implemented django-fluent-comments Link to GitHub. It seems to allow this specific requirement.

Simply add to your code:

...
{% load comments %}
...
{% render_comment_list for object %}
...

where object is your blog entry object. That works for me as a solution.
