Hello all happy holidays! :)

I'm trying to insert comments in my wordpress blog via the wp_insert_comment() function. It's for a plugin I'm trying to make.

I have this code in my header for testing. It works every time I refresh the page.

$agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

$data = array(
    'comment_post_ID' => 256,
    'comment_author' => 'Dave',
    'comment_author_email' => '[email protected]',
    'comment_author_url' => 'http://www.someiste.com',
    'comment_content' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...',
    'comment_author_IP' => '127.3.1.1',
    'comment_agent' => $agent,
    'comment_date' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s'),
    'comment_date_gmt' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s'),
    'comment_approved' => 1,
);

$comment_id = wp_insert_comment($data);

It successfully inserts comments into the database.

The problem: Comments don't show via the Disqus comment system. I compared table rows and I noticed that user_agent differs.

Normal comments use for example, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv...

and Disqus comments use Disqus/1.1(2.61):119598902 numbers are different for each comment.

Does anyone know how to insert comments with wp_insert_comment() when Disqus is enabled?
