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?

Adjust the comments_number sync period for WordPress archive pages To get the correct number of Discourse comments for a post, the plugin needs to periodically make an HTTP request to Discourse to get the current comments number.

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.

To give specific advice on that, here’s that same screenshot with indications of what I mean by “Topic metadata” and “First post”.

WordPress Hey @martym, The easiest way of selecting specific posts for Wordpress comments out of the box is using this commenting option: Only Import Moderator-Liked However, I suspect you’re after something more targeted, given you’ve mentioned a “single” post and also that you want to embed it in the body of the post itself. It’s not possible to retrieve a single post, based off of the post number (e.g. this post has a post number of 2) using the WP Discourse Comments functionality, or embed it with… 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. :sweat_smile: I will try to implement this with the help of a developer. Thanks again! Have a good day!
