How to set an article can be commented without registering and logging?

[chongbing]

Hello there,

The current default situation in Elxis 5.x is that after a user posts a comment, the administrator can manually allow whether the comment can be posted.

But if I want to set one of articles can be commented without registering and logging? Like an attachment. And the comments can be posted by administrator after he/she submit comment or automatically posted after visitors submit comment.

A real example, you can look at the end of the article https://www.soliantconsulting.com/blog/filemaker-19-admin-api/  And a picture as attached.

Let me know if there is any unclear description. I will appreciate if you can help with this.  Thank you very much.


To datahell,

I am wondering that this be regarded as the function of Elxis core in the comment module?  Thank you.

Elxis provides 2 options for comments source: Elxis and Disqus.

Elxis comments
Comments are not allowed to non-logged-in users because commenting is a big source of spam and attacks. Even if the comments did not get published but only after check by the administration they still remain a problem.

Disqus
If you set Disqus as comments source, if I remember correctly, guests can post comments if you enable this option. Else they can login with an external authenticator like their gmail account etc. So I think this is the solution to your problem.

Note: If the above solutions doesn't fit your needs a custom plugin can be developed working as you wish.
