Is it possible to embed comments from a single topic and allow discussion on the page where they are embedded?

Does nodeBB have this capability? We're in the development stage of a website redesign and we're looking to keep certain topics/comments tied to different pages without having to navigate away to the forum to participate. Has anyone seen an example of a site using forum tools this way? Thanks!

Yes, you'll want to investigate using nodebb-plugin-blog-comments

Thanks for the tip—I'll look into it!

I've been trying nodebb-plugin-blog-comments but I get this message in my log:

I also am unable to access the Plugin->Blog Comments section. It just spins. I'm using NodeBB version 1.6.1.

Thank you!

I copied comments folder from nodebb-plugin-blog-comments\public\templates to NodeBB\build\public\templates and that appears to have worked. Thanks!
