I quote the bit I want to use, and that works out pretty good. You can even do a small excerpt and use the expand to show the full post. ( **Added after:** if the user has permission to view the category where the quote is from)

Curabitur diam neque, imperdiet vitae varius ac, eleifend a sapien. Etiam congue egestas mauris ac varius. Proin eu ligula eu eros sagittis fringilla. Nullam venenatis nunc in est pretium efficitur. Quisque facilisis massa in tellus rhoncus vestibulum.

It says ‘On another topic’ rather than the topic title, so not super smooth, but has been a good workaround for us. 👍 The bonus is that it also keeps its formatting too.
