Hey Guys,
as i’m just working on a new blog, i’d like to try out discourse instead of bbpress or woltlab inside it. So i set it up and tried it out a little bit and yes, i like it. So for simplicity i’d like to totaly integrate discourse inside my wordpress page. I have a standard theme with a header, and a sidemenu and now i’d like to replace the content section with my discourse board. I don’t want the users to “leave” my site when they enter and discuss inside a board.

Is this possible with discourse? And if yes, how could i get this working?

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

You can set the same header, footer, style and fonts on both sites so they feel the same site.

Using Discourse inside an iframe isn’t supported.

This is not possible as the theme i use is a complete template from tagDiv :frowning:

You can use the wp-discourse plugin to embed comments into your wordpress site. People will still leave to Discourse to create those comments, though.

If you’re a glutton for punishment, you can make Discourse appear in a subfolder of your site:
