Howdy, the plugin mostly works great, thanks. One issue is that I intentionally have WP articles that are old and never posted to Discourse. When any edit is made to those old WP articles, like fixing a typo, a new post is made to Discourse as if that WP article was brand new. That notifies our users about old content they don’t want to see.

Is there a way to disable this behaviour? Thanks.
