Hi Justin,

## Hiding revision History

With revision history you have two options

1. Admin can hide any specific version. It can still be seen by a Moderator, but users don’t see it at all.

  
So when a typical user comes along, there’s no revision 🙂 👇

1. Create a new Topic – This approach is sometimes the better option if there are more than ten revisions you want to remove OR if there’s something moderators shouldn’t see(e.g. confidential information).

## Embedded Topic

With the embedded Topic, one thing I’ve found, is that the info in post B does not update in post A, unless post A is modified. In the Example below, A is Main Topic and B Sub-Topic 1

Initially both topics look like this:

I now embed Sub-Topic 1 into Main Topic

Then change the contents of Sub-Topic 1

and even if I refresh the Main Topic, the original version is still in the preview

So I’m wondering if that might be an issue for you as well?
