  It’s easy to comment on other non-WP blogs as all I need to do is enter my name, email & comment and hit go. But it seems w/ WP readers need to log in/enter a username and pass. in order to comment? Is there anyway to bypass this to make it easier for readers to comment on my blog? thanks

  Go to settings > general and deselect “Users must be registered and logged in to comment” under membership and then click “save changes” at the bottom of the page.

  Oh! Duh. I just finished a new post about visitors, whether they had to be registered bloggers themselves…. Whoo! I’m off now to de-select the offending item… Thankees…
