Discourse comment-like discussion

[Petecious]

Hi,

So discourse looks to me like a great forum platform. Ability to start topics, join in, etc.

However, we also need ability to have the commonly seen per-page comment threads that are separate from forum threads.

Is there a way to essentially have 1 topic dedicated to every page on our web app so that people can start independent commenting threads on each page?

Would these per-page topics show up on the main forum topic list? If so, is there a way to filter them out so that forum consists of only topics that aren’t page specific?

Thank you!
Pete

Yes

You can set the category holding those topics as Suppress category from latest topics. to not clutter the forum.
