  Hi – I want to create a blog / forum website using WordPress and was wondering, do users need to create guest accounts on my website before contributing and adding a new post or commenting? Or can they simply post / comment without first having to register?

  Hi there!

  Who has the ability to comment is completely up to you. You can choose how you’d like your blog to be commented on in the “Discussion” section under “Settings”

  Here’s the WordPress support page that will walk you through exactly how it works:

  Hope that helps!
