Blog Comments

posts: 7

This should be easy, but I cannot find the relevent box to check or link to press.

How can I enable anonymous users to comment to a blog post?
How can an anonymous user post a comment?

I can setup and make a blog post. When I edit the blog, "Allow Comments" is checked.


Using a different browser, so I can simulate an anonymous user, I can list the blogs and see the posts for the test blog I created. For a post, I can see the "View Comments" link, but no where do I see an ability to post a comment.


Can comment posting abilities be restricted to just users that are logged into tiki?

Hi

Without knowing too many details of your configuration of the Tiki, Im guessing that the Anonymous group doesnt have the tiki_p_ permission for comments.

Might be worth visiting the Admin->Groups, Anonymous, and review that Anonymous has the necessary comment making/viewing permissions

That was it. Didn't occur to me to look in that section.

I would very much like to allow Anonymous to send private comments to Blog author. I have given private messaging permission to Anonymous, but I guess I'll have to tweak a template to create a "Write your comments to author" button.

Is that right?

ContactUsAnonymous will concern only one person - the contact
To contact a user as anonymous. In tiki-user_information.php it is impossible you need to be logged in. The same for messu-mailbox.php

I think you need a dev to do that
