> I think that what you want is have all topics that are pulled to Discourse from your website be marked as _unlisted_ . When a topic receives a comment, it would automatically be marked as _listed_ . Unlisted topics do not appear in the topic list, so this would prevent the topic list on your site from being full of topics with no responses.

> That’s a good idea. The other option is to not create the topics until the user clicks through but I think your suggestion might be easier. Perhaps @eviltrout could consider this as a possible task for this release, next week?

This has been asked for **years** on the [Embed Discourse comments on another website via Javascript](https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-discourse-comments-via-javascript/31963) topic.
