Hello everyone. I am looking for a way to create a topic on the discourse platform (not an article on an external website), and have this topic invisible until someone comments on it. I was thinking about something similar to the [scheduling method](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-create-a-timed-topic/60731), just using the first comment as the trigger. Kind of like an “IF” condition. I’ll explain the use of it: I am working on a slideshow that will be shared with people and features different products. I would like to invite people to discuss these products further. What I wanted to do is to create a topic for each product, with the slideshow details, have it invisible, and provide a link in the slideshow. Then, if someone decides to comment - the post will become visible / move from a hidden category to the right category. It’s so I won’t post a bunch of topics empty from comments / with no interest. Is there any way to achieve something like that? Thanks! --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/hide-unlist-change-category-for-topic-until-first-comment/148955)._
