I was wondering the same thing about duplicate synchronized WP/Discourse content from this topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/risk-of-duplicate-content-with-synchronized-wp-posts-discourse-topics/91737 But it got closed by Jeff Atwood saying there are already existing topics.

Maybe 9 months later: this is something that keeps coming up with us too. We started posting only the excerpt to Discourse, but our members don’t like to be bounced back to the site to read the full article.

Well, you can’t have it both ways, so I’m not sure what you’re proposing here.

[Bild] rmens: dinged by Google for duplicate content Yes, this is a thing. Google don’t like duplicate copies of articles.

[Bild] simon: An embed set canonical url site setting was recently added to Discourse. When this setting is enabled, the canonical URL for topics that have an embed URL will be set to the topic’s embed URL. This turned out to work great. It was just not obvious to me how to create a topic wit…

The embed url is an attribute that can be associated with a topic. The WP Discourse plugin sets the embed url to the permalink of the WP post. So if you use the site setting embed set canonical url the WP post permalink will be the canonical url of the discourse topic (i.e. it will appear in the hea…
