  I want to be able to allow people to post comments on my WordPress without having to know them or have them create an account. Is there a way to do this easily, or is there a way to modify the CSS or something to allow other comments (like haloscan) so that people don’t have to register? Thanks!

  Go to options > discussion and under “Before a comment appears” make the changes you want. I would keep the second one selected, but deselect the first and third, and then click update options.

  I’ve got the same problem as “apocaknits” and the settings are like “thesacredpath” wrote. But still people without an account can not post a comment. Any ideas? :-(

  Go to options > general and make sure the checkbox adjacent to “membership” is NOT selected. Then click “update” options. For some reason a few people have ended up with this mysteriously checked for some odd reason.
