Livefyre comments widget on engadet.com doesn't load/appear #1519
Description
The comments section on engadget.com doesn't appear.
I use Firefox stable on Windows 7.
I can disable the rule "Livefyre (partial)" and the comments widget appears.
I believe it has to do with the following:
in the rule there is d584h2bjreb1u.cloudfront.net .
But analyzing with noscript, there is another domain that is loaded on engadget, which is
https://d8rk54i4mohrb.cloudfront.net.
Maybe this domain has to be added to the rule?
Rule active, no comments widget
Rule inactive, comments widget appears

https://github.com/EFForg/https-everywhere/blob/master/src/chrome/content/rules/Livefyre.xml#L44-L45 would look like it's trying to catch the livefyre stuff
On Chrome it seems the comment sections appear, but all seemingly all posts have 0?

Now I installed httpseverywhere on chrome too. And it behaves the same as on Firefox. It doesn't show the comments widget from livefyre as long as the rule "livefyre (partial)" is active.
The "0 comments" that you refer to is written in a blue bar, and isn't part of the widget itself.
I updated the first post with images.

@gloomy-ghost this has been resolved.

I can confirm that the livefyre ruleset is no longer active on engadet.com, and the comment section loads successfully.
