  My readers are trying to like and comment on my blog post but they are being asked to register and provide their email ids. I want to surpass all this. Can I somehow allow them to directly like and comment on the post without my approval? Also I want to use a new email id for communication. How do I do that?

  Thank you for the help!

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

  I had no problem liking or commenting.

  Are they WordPress members ?

  @dribblingpensioner Thank you for liking and commenting on the post! No they are not WordPress members. Is there restriction on non WordPress members?

  WordPress members can comment and like, non members have to give their email address etc.

  If you went to blogger to comment you would have to do the same.
