Disqus comments fails to load on localhost?

Question

I would like to use the universal code and have ran into difficulties getting the most basic functionality done.

I would like to create a shortname for test<

Answer 1

None of the solutions above worked for me as of September 2013.

To get it to work I had to add localhost to the "Trusted Domains" list on this page:

http://[disqus_shortname].disqus.com/admin/settings/advanced/

and also use the "Universal Code" found below to embed it into my blog posts:

http://[disqus_shortname].disqus.com/admin/settings/universalcode/

And it works! :)
