Re: Anonymous posting 

ok, the problem I am having now is this...

go here...
http://www.jarretteschule.com/Movies/tabid/53/Default.aspx

click on the top movie "elevator" and you will be directed to the "elevator page"

everything is working great except that if you aren't logged in you can't see the

Blog Settings

I really want to be able to let people that aren't logged in post their comments...I have enabled anonymous postings too on the module settins.

Re: Anonymous posting 
I think you need to learn how to use the blog module first - unfortunately I'm no expert so can't advise. Perhaps the article module would be better for you here because it is simpler than the blog module. Try that on another movie page and compare.

Re: Anonymous posting alternative use case 
First off, kudos everyone for the awesome module.  Here's an alternate proposal for "anonymous" posting.  How about a "hide my identity" checkbox when posting such that when the post renders, the registered user's name isn't shown (or displays as anonymous).  This is in tune with requests I've had from clients where they will only have registered users post, but occasionally, due to the nature of the content (sensitivity, etc) the poster doesn't want to have his identity associated with the post.

Re: Anonymous posting alternative use case 

Right now any user can change their alias to whatever they want, they just have to go into their "My Settings" area and update the alias field and save.

Re: Anonymous posting alternative use case 

Hi Crispy,

As you can see by my changed alias (vautrin2), if a user changes their alias, it changes it for all posts--also, it seems that not all alias options will update (e.g. I can't change my alias back to vautrin).  The use case I had in mind would be a per post hide my identity bit.

A thought along these lines is that someone could of course deduce someone's identity through post statistics--unlesss posts marked as hide my identity were excluded from stats.

Anyway, thanks again for the incredible job!

Re: Anonymous posting alternative use case 

This seems like a pretty specialized use case. I will keep it in my mind when I finally do consider anonymous posting in the future.
