I’ve added a related feature to: Discord Bot Construction Kit 🤖 - #79 by merefield
If you designate a Channel as the “Announcements Channel”, any message typed there will get posted on your designated Discourse Topic.
(The update also watches for announcements from Discourse that are copied to Discord in the same channel)
This also occurs on my implementation, but it’s not an infinite loop, it just confirms back that the Post has been added. You can avoid that by putting the Discord Topic on Discourse in a different place and avoid the watched Categories.
