Repost
Repost is a Flarum extension that enhances your forum by allowing posts that start with a URL to be treated as external links. When users click on such posts from the discussion list, they will be redirected to the external URL. However, users can still participate in discussions within the forum thread about the linked content.
Idea
The idea came from the Hacker News model
