A WordPress article can keep its canonical home while The Bridge provides the durable discussion, moderation, and community surface.
Publish from WordPress
The author opts this article into DiscussionBridge before its first publication. WordPress sends the published title, canonical URL, structured body, and stable author identity through its protected server connection.
Keep one content identity
The article belongs to WordPress. The discussion belongs to Discourse. DiscussionBridge preserves the relationship between them.
Carry portable structure
| WordPress supplies | The Bridge supplies |
|---|---|
| Canonical article and author | Discussion and moderation |
| Headings, links, tables, quotes, code, and media | Durable topic identity and replies |
Resolve safely
WordPress post ID + site identity → one Bridge Record → one Discourse topicRetries reuse the same identity. Ordinary edits do not create another topic or pretend to synchronize an unsupported content update.

The mapped discussion appears below this article in a bounded application frame. Reader sessions, replies, composer, moderation, and accessibility remain owned by Discourse.
