Is it possible to embed discussion-cat1 to wordpress-page1 & discussion-cat2 to wordpress-page2?

As per the title is it possible to embed only one discussion category to a single page and another to a different page?

In wordpress I have a few areas and would like a bulletin board in each area without these boards showing the other categories.
I would also like a main forum page where all the categories are displayed including the ones mentioned above.

    Welcome to the community!

    I don't think that is out of the box functionality.

    Anyone else?

    I think you're right that it's not out of box functionality as I've searched quite a bit without success.

    I was thinking could this be handled by using a different embed code - which points to a different JS file? If so could anyone suggest how I could modify the file to point to only a specific category?

    Main forum: (default embed code)

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mywebsite.com/vanillaforums/plugins/embedvanilla/remote.js"></script>

    Only category1:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mywebsite.com/vanillaforums/plugins/embedvanilla/remote_category1.js"></script>

    Only category2:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mywebsite.com/vanillaforums/plugins/embedvanilla/remote_category2.js"></script>

    You would have to create those files. Reading through the remote.js file, you can only specify either a 'standard' or 'comments' embed type. So either the entire forum or a specific discussion's contents.
