Ridhima_Sharma is trying to display only the first post (topic) from a Discourse thread on a WordPress blog using the WP Discourse plugin, without showing the comments. angus points out that this can be achieved by embedding “topic metadata” and the “first post” separately, and provides links to tutorials on how to do this: https://meta.discourse.org/t/wp-discourse-plugin-tips-and-tricks/50757#display-metadata-of-a-connected-discourse-topic and https://meta.discourse.org/t/embed-a-single-post-reply-in-the-body-of-a-wordpress-post/182269/2. However, this requires WordPress coding, so Ridhima_Sharma plans to implement this with the help of a developer.
Hello Team, good day.
I am trying to display just the topic (first post on the thread) on my Wordpress blog. I have researched thoroughly and am unable to achieve this through WP Discourse plugin.
Has someone been able to execute this??
Thanks in advance!
Hey @Ridhima_Sharma, did you check out the notes I added to tips and tricks in response to your similar request back in February? Or are you trying to achieve something else now?
Hey @angus,
Thank you for the response!
What I am looking for is just displaying the topic, without the comments on a WordPress blog.
The only options that I have seen so far are about managing comments.
So for instance, if I put the link for a particular thread in the WP Discourse plugin on WordPress site, I need this to be fetched and not the comments.
If there is any way to do this, I would love to know!
Looking forward to your response!
To give specific advice on that, here’s that same screenshot with indications of what I mean by “Topic metadata” and “First post”.
Also, when I say “embedding” I mean displaying these two items directly in a Wordpress page.
Regarding embedding “topic metadata”, that is the subject of my previous response to your February post. I wrote up how to do that here:
Regarding embedding the “first post”, I’ve explained how to do that here:
You could combine both of the above to embed that entire screenshot in a wordpress page or post. Both require Wordpress coding however, so you’ll need a Wordpress developer.
Hey @angus
Thanks a lot for re-iterating. I was confused. 
I will try to implement this with the help of a developer. Thanks again! Have a good day!
