Hi,

This is my first day on this forum. I’d like to ask whether we can build a community that contains intro posts with link to original article with Discourse?  
Like this: [https://growthhackers.com/articles/scale-your-agency-by-optimizing-your-reporting](https://growthhackers.com/articles/scale-your-agency-by-optimizing-your-reporting)

Thanks.

You can create a topic that says anything and links to another topic. If you somehow want those intro topics created automatically you’ll need a plugin.

Hi @pfaffman. This is the new article UI of the ref site:

The article is not created automatically but they have a field for original article

You can create a topic template in a category. If you want a modal life that you’ll need a plugin. Probable a day or two for a plugin developer.
