RSS GUID Question

I'm using dlvr.it to auto feed my RSS, it works great and as intended.

My question is, is there any way to turn off replies to topics already posted.

Example: If I post "This is a test" it posts to all of my socials automatically via dlvr.it which is exactly what I want. But each time somebody replies to "This is a test" it creates a new social media post and another and another. every time a reply is made they all get posted. Is there a way adjust the RSS so only the OP gets posted and replies don't?

dlvr.it support said this happens because each time a reply is made it creates a new GUID and that is the tag they use to identify a new item to post regardless if it is an actual new post or a reply to an existing.

Thank you always appreciated.

This is what I have assigned as the RSS feed in my dlvr.it settings

Yeah, that's not really the right URL. Add ;sa=news to the URL so it only outputs topics in the first place.

I forget how I set it up and how I came to use that particular URL. I think I looked it up on the site.

Like this?
