Discourse has the ability to be embedded within other websites ([Embed Discourse comments on another website via Javascript - admins - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-discourse-comments-via-javascript/31963)). We want to use this for reviewing the updated version of Real World OCaml. There is still some admin work needed to make this possible though (from the linked article): > Configuring Discourse for Embedding (simple setup) > The following setup will embed a comment feed on a page on a fake blog URL of [http://example.com/blog/entry-123.html](http://example.com/blog/entry-123.html), from a discourse forum running at [http://discourse.example.com](http://discourse.example.com). > Visit Admin \> Customize \> Embedding on your Discourse install. > Create at least one embeddable host. This should be the hostname (domain) where you want to embed your comments. In this case the host is [example.com](http://example.com) – note the lack of http:// and path. > (optional) - if you supply a category alongside the host you are entering, posts imported from that host will automatically end up in that category. Different hosts can post to different categories. > Fill in the name of a user on your discourse who will create topics in the Embed by Username field. Let’s assume our discourse has a user called eviltrout, so the value is eviltrout. Besides Real World OCaml this might also be interesting for other websites. ---

I’ve set this up for the realworldocaml domains – thanks for digging out the instructions. If anyone else wants to access the API for their own sites, please post here and @gasche or I can make the necessary changes. ---

Having said that, I wonder if we need a staging forum to mess around with, since the API access only grants it to the production [realworldocaml.org](http://realworldocaml.org), so it’s not much use for day-to-day development…
