Hello @eviltrout, I noticed that the topic list includes unlisted, closed, archived topics. I guess these should not be taken into account in the list. Given: Or is there a filter to only keep open topics?

You should be able to use status="open" for that restriction.

[image]Embedding a list of Discourse Topics in another site You can filter by category, tag, or any of the other public filter options available. Is there any documentation showing what arguments are available for each of the linked filter options? For example, [image] Robin Ward: You should be able to use status="open" for that restriction. implies that I should also be able to use status="noreplies" or status="solved" as they are options exposed from the UI. [image] But I think they are being ignored as invalid options, as the results are identical with/without the argument (likewise when filtering to status=unsolved vs status=solved, which should be opposites). Alternatively, if there’s a different way to pass in custom search terms I would be OK with that - I tried https://discourse.getdbt.com/embed/topics?template=complete&top_period=all&search="status%3Anoreplies" (with the colon encoded and unencoded) but got no results using that approach. Note that I’m embedding the iframe directly instead of using the placeholder element because we ran into this problem: [image]Embedding a list of Discourse Topics in another site Aha, my issue appears to be that React is messing with the client-side DOM, resetting it to match the server-rendered DOM (with the raw element) immediately after the embed-topics.js script inserts the iframe. I don’t think this is the cause of the issue though, given that the imported JS is just building the iframe URL.

OK I had a poke around in embed_controller.rb and it looks like when the topic query is built, it only takes into account the allowed parameters in the original post (template, per-page, category, allow-create, tags and top_period): app/controllers/embed_controller.rb 5a76a3669 topic_query = TopicQuery.new(current_user, list_options) top_period = params[:top_period] Which I think makes [image]Embedding a list of Discourse Topics in another site any of the other public filter options available. a red herring. I will go and open a feature request to allow additional params in this embed. Thanks for the help @Falco :pray:

This feature has a different parameter list than what search uses. Take a look at the controller code to check the existing parameters.
