+#### Example: How to sync comments from Disqus to your local database
+
+```php
+Route::get('sync-comments', function(){
+
+// this is your disqus secret key
+$secret_key = 'yoursecretkey';
+
+// create new instance of DisqusAPI
+$disqus = new DisqusAPI($secret_key);
+
+// uncomment if you have trouble with secure connections
+//$disqus->setSecure(false);
+
+// NOTE: if you don't have posts in the table, you need to set $since to dummy date
+// else you need to fix the time format
+$since = str_replace(' ', 'T', DB::table('comments')->max('date')); 
+
+$params = array(
+   'forum'=>'yourforumname',
+   'limit'=>51,
+   'order'=>'asc',
+   'include'=>'approved',
+   'related'=>'thread',
+   'since'=>$since
+);
+
+// get a list with all disqus comments since last comment in your local db
+$comments = $disqus->posts->list($params);
+
+// add comments to your db
+do 
+{
+    if(count($comments) > 1)
+    {
+
+    // unset duplicate comment

+    
+    // counter
+    $n = 0;
+
+   // save comments locally
+   foreach ($comments as $comment) 
+   {
+       $slug = $comment->thread->identifiers[0];
+       // NOTE: you may need to manipulate your slug in order to use it later as key
+
+       $data = array(
