  People are being forced to login to comment even though the “Users must be registered and logged in to comment ” box is UNCHECKED. I am losing comments because of this. I DO NOT want people to have to sign in in order to leave a comment. Please help ASAP.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I just took a look at your site, and I’m seeing the option to login, but its not mandatory:

  

  You still have the box checked for “Comment author must fill out name and e-mail”.

  Let me know what you’d like to see happen there and I can give you some steps to make it work. :)

  I would just like to see anyone and everyone be able to comment. I have had several people tell me they have tried to comment and can’t.
  thanks

  I’m happy to help anyone who has trouble commenting. They can head over to the forums and start a new thread:

  https://en.forums.wordpress.com/?new=1

  If they add the tag modlook a staff member will be alerted to help out.

  You can also remove the name and email restriction in your dashboard .
