Yes, it's a priority.

You can either add the parameter or just not preview the post while

making drafts.

Any timeline on the next version? Will I have to add the parameter to every post in order to avoid it showing up - or simply live with going in to the community page and removing pages there manually?

It gets me a bit uncomfortable, that readers may get incomplete posts or posts subject to later changes (I often write blogposts days, sometimes weeks or months in advance)

A page view sends a request out to Disqus to tell us that we need to create a thread for a particular page.

Unfortunately, previewing a post in WordPress is the same as viewing a published post. Disqus doesn't discriminate against those types.

In the next version, we will attempt to determine whether the post has a published status and set the parameter automatically.

Couldn't find out how to contact Disqus support, so sent a tweet to Daniel Ha, co-founder of Disqus, and got this one back : http://twitter.com/danielha/statuses/832431033

Daniel also supplied a Javascript parameter by email, which could help avoid this. I still don't understand however, why or how previewed posts in WP could, should or ought to even appear in Kaplak's page on Disqus.

Alright, this is mega-uncool. Just found out that Disqus seems to index un-published posts in WordPress too. This is a major boo, and if not fixed ASAP will definitely get me off the service.
