## Àpèjúwe

**EchoThread** is a lightweight, privacy-first comment system — a modern [Disqus alternative](https://echothread.io)
that doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t sell your readers’ data or inject ads. This plugin drops
EchoThread into any WordPress theme with no code: enter your site key, choose where
comments appear, and youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re live.

ItÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s a thin wrapper around the hosted EchoThread widget (~37 KB gzipped,
loaded async from a CDN). All storage, rendering, moderation, and spam filtering
happen in the hosted service, so the plugin adds **no tracking, no database tables,
and no page-weight beyond the widget script**.

#### Why EchoThread

 * **Privacy-first** — no ad tech, no third-party trackers, no data resale. GDPR-
   friendly.
 * **AI / ML spam filtering** — machine-learning moderation catches AI-generated
   comment spam that keyword filters miss.
 * **Threaded replies & reactions** — a modern discussion UX, not a flat list.
 * **Fast** — one async script, zero render-blocking, no jQuery.
 * **Free tier** — get started without a credit card.
 * **Disqus migration** — import your existing comments via WXR so no conversations
   are lost.

#### How it works

 1. Create a free account and a site at [echothread.io](https://echothread.io/register?utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=plugin&utm_campaign=readme).
 2. Install and activate this plugin.
 3. Go to **Settings  ThreadBridge Comments for EchoThread**, paste your **shortname**
    and **API key**.
 4. Choose placement — _Replace the theme comments_ (recommended), _Append below content_,
    or _Manual_ via the `[echothread]` shortcode.

ThatÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s it. Comments render on your posts immediately.

#### Privacy

This plugin loads `https://cdn.echothread.io/widget.js` on singular posts/pages 
where comments are enabled. The widget communicates with the EchoThread API to load
and post comments. The plugin itself sets no cookies and collects no personal data.
See the [EchoThread privacy policy](https://echothread.io/privacy) for how the hosted
service handles comment data.

## Ìgbéwọlẹ̀

 1. Upload the `threadbridge-comments-for-echothread` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`,
    or install via **Plugins  Add New**.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen.
 3. Visit **Settings  ThreadBridge Comments for EchoThread** and enter your site **
    shortname** and **API key** from your EchoThread dashboard.
 4. Save. Comments appear on your posts according to the placement you chose.

## FAQ

### Do I need an EchoThread account?

Yes — create one free at echothread.io. The plugin needs your siteÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá:’
s shortname and public API key.

### Is the API key safe to expose?

Yes. The API key is a public, embeddable credential designed to live in page HTML.
It only lets visitors load and post comments on your registered site; it cannot 
access or change your account.

### Will this slow down my site?

No. The widget is ~37 KB gzipped, loads asynchronously from a CDN, and never blocks
page rendering. The plugin adds no other assets.

### Can I migrate my existing WordPress or Disqus comments?

Yes. Export your WordPress comments from **Tools  Export** (WXR), then import them
in your EchoThread dashboard. Disqus XML exports are also supported.

### Does the plugin track my visitors?

No. The plugin adds no analytics, no cookies, and no third-party trackers.

### How do I show comments somewhere specific?

Set placement to **Manual** and add the `[echothread]` shortcode wherever you want
the thread to appear.
