I have a site where I publish various tutorials and blogs, and I use Discourse as both a forum and as comments using the embedding feature. This mostly works great, except that when I create a new page on the main site, all of the content is included in the Discourse post. Some of my users don’t ev…

For what it’s worth, here’s what I ended up doing: On my blog, I have a <div> with an id of forum-excerpt, which is hidden with display:none but contains the HTML that I’d like to show in the Discourse post. (I do this using some Jekyll / Liquid logic, but that shouldn’t really matter.) On my…

Sorry for the bump, but I’d be really grateful if anybody had any ideas for me to try!

Hey Kevin, can I just confirm whether you’re using the WP Discourse plugin or a javascript embed ?

Thanks for the reply! I’m using the JavaScript embed. For example, I have this page: [immagine] React CSS Tutorial Use CSS to style your React apps. Which contains this embed code: <script type="text/javascript"> DiscourseEmbed = { discourseUrl: location.pr…

Customize what HTML is pulled from your site The way embeds work is that they scrape the content from a site using the Readability gem. The gem and it’s output use t…

I struggle to understand why there is not an option to customize the full embedded text. I do not want to scrape any actual content from the embedded URL, instead just have a link to it with a short description (e.g. just the meta summary). Right now I do this with an automated API call, but want t…

[immagine] Angus McLeod: It sounds like you don’t want an embed True, I just want an automatic thread creation whenever a new blog article is published. However, I also want to use the native JS embed feature to show comments below the blog post on the external website, which comes with the …

Thanks for explaining. Ok, if I’m understanding you correctly: you want the topic creation and comment linking functionality of JS embeds ; and you want just a link with a short description in the first post of the linked topic in discourse. Is that right? For 2 have you tried the embed truncate …
