Ez-Comments and guest users  Bottom

  • does anyone happen to have an idea on how to allow guest users to leave comments without registering using Ez-Comments?
  • You need to add a rule in Administration -> Permissions because EZComments obey standard PostNuke permissions system
    something like :
    Unregistered in the Group column, modulename:: or .* (for all modules) in the component column, .* in the instance column and Comment in the Permissions level column
    Of course as always rules order IS important in permissions !!

  • Tried that, ended up with a ton of errors actually:

    with comments in v4bJournal:

    Code

    You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your mysql server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
    SELECT count(*) FROM pn_v4b_journal_journal WHERE jjo_owner_uid =


    from adding comments to a story:

    Code

    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in C:\Domains\alteredspectrum.com\wwwroot\modules\News\article.php on line 103
  • I can't speak for News as I use Pagesetter on all my site as a replacement for the News module but I have no problem with guest comments in v3bJournal version .97 under PN .750
    If you have problem with some modules why not allow comment for guests only in some modules via the permissions rules ?

  • That's my next step at the moment, i'm going to restrict the rule to only the v4bJournal module and MeG. See how that handles it. Though I still think i'd run into the same error with journal. but at least it would cut down the amount of errors i'd be bound to run into, and give me an easier chance of fixing them when they do arise.
  • Ok, straightened out all of those errors. Now I have another question for the EZComment world, is there any way to give the guest user a spot to enter their name instead of having them all listed as anonymous? I'd really like to give a field that they could fill out if they so desire.
  • bump?
