That makes sense. I’m thinking that if users are being encouraged to post in this way (without first encouraging them to read all comments on a topic) it might be better to just reduce all friction and allow them to comment directly from the WordPress page. This isn’t possible at the moment, but it’s something that should maybe be considered as an addition to the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin for WordPress sites that are using [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) to log users into Discourse. For WordPress sites that aren’t using [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true), it would be a lot more complex to allow users to comment directly on WordPress.
